Something Saturday - Create Along

Image
 Hi there Creators Stampin' Up! had a Demonstrator only event the other day, and showed us how to create "one sheet wonders" from a piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP). I got inspired and added a bit more into it, and you guys get to benefit from it 😃  I hope you do craft along with me in the video, but if you need a bit of extra help, I have a Create Along PDF for you (hopefully I can work out how to attach it!, let me know if it hasn't worked!)  List of what you need below photos. Photos below of the 2 sets of cards I ended up creating: Here is what I used for this first set of cards:  Kintsugi Inspirations   I used Stampin' Write Markers that will be retiring as they run out, but you could just as easily use the Stampin' Blends (alcohol markers) just use Memento ink with them rather than Stazon! And these are the ones I created in the video, here is the link for all the goodies I used for these cards: Absolutely Charming  (how pretty is this paper)! ...

Something Saturday - Expressions of Kindness Kit

 Hi there Creators

Today I thought I'd break open a new kit - Expressions of Kindness. Oh my goodness this kit is absolutely gorgeous! I love that the most beautiful card base is actually double sided and has the pattern on the back as well as the front (very handy if you're happy to cut it in 1/2 and pop it on spare card bases, so you can make way more than the kit is intended for!)  It also comes with a mini stamp pad and stamp set, bonus! 😃

these are the 2 card styles that the kit officially makes:  Oh and how gorgeous are the matching envelopes?!💖

then I cut one of the (more beautiful) cards in 1/2, the front of the card has the gold foiling on the front of it, I'm a bit partial to gold! 🤣  I didn't change much with it, I just used the ribbon flat across the card, rather than folded up behind the saying, and gold heat embossed the saying.

Then the reverse side doesn't have the gold foiling.  I had to trim the card down to fit on the base card, so I decided to add a portion of the side along the bottom, and used a spot of gold heat embossing for the saying again 😍

I am quite sure there's so much more you can do with this kit, I did see someone had cut up the pieces and used them in a scrapbook too (that's very clever!)

However, if you missed my video, and want to find out what my references to "hairy beard stamp" are.....


I hope this inspires you to create too.

God Bless love
