Something Saturday - Origami Envelopes

Image
 Hi There Creators, Guess what? it's that time of the week again for Something Saturday!😃 This week I happened to be scrolling through Facebook and came across this origami envelope quick video, so I have deciphered the video (you know how they do it and it's so fast!) And I've worked out if you do it with 12x12" cardstock you get an envelope worthy of a card, and a 6x6" piece gives you a gift card sized envelope. Here they are: then I'll try and explain how to make them...... This first one is made using one of the 12x12" pieces of  Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and this smaller one uses one of the 6x6" pieces of Full of Life Designer Series Paper Now, how to create these envelopes: take your square piece of designer cardstock, and fold in 1/2 diagonally Open it up and fold one side in to the middle: then fold as shown: open up the bottom flap and fold in the sides fold up the bottom tuck the point bit inside the envelope (you might want t...

Mini Camera Shutter Card

 Hi There Creators,

Today I'm showing you how to make a mini camera shutter card, it's made with an A6 piece of card (so cute!)

Here are 3 of the cards as closed ,1/2 open, and open, so it makes a bit more sense (little hard to photograph!)

Mini Camera Shutter Card, Beautiful Balloons Suite, Stampin' Up!

And these are the components you'll need to make this particular one, check out this list for the products used: what Heather used  and the measurements are below.

 
You'll need:
  • A6 thick white card, scored in each side at 3.7cm
  • 2 pieces Misty Moonlight card cut to 7cm x 5.9cm scored at 1cm on the long edge
  • 2 pieces of designer paper cut to 1" x 4"
  • 1 piece of designer paper cut to 2" x 4", scored in at 1/2cm (or 1/4") both ends and with the medium filled in balloon from the dies cut from the middle of it.
  • a small balloon cut from designer paper.
  • 2 3/8" circle punch
  • take your pick tool 

I'm not sure I'd do justice to explaining how to create this one, so I'll leave it up to the video!

 
 I hope you have a go at making it, you can do them bigger too, just increase the size of the parts!, remember the 2 mechanism parts (the misty moonlight ones in my example) need to overlap in the middle of the card for it to work.

I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love
