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...

Something Saturday - Snowy Scenes Designer Series Paper

 Hi There Creators,

In my video today I thought after seeing all the Designer Papers last week in my video, I should start playing with some!  So, today I'm playing with the Snowy Scenes Paper

Funnily enough I possibly wouldn't have picked this paper out to purchase, but, because I organized a Paper share I put myself in it and ended up with a partial pack of each of the papers too (which is really cool!)  Just a heads up that I'm hoping to remember to do this for each catalogue that comes out!

Anyway moving onto the cards I created with it....

This is the one I created in the video, the Pool Party Pom Pom ribbon, I've used one of the alcohol Stampin' Blends to colour it dark green, then cut the ribbon in 1/2 lengthways to pop under the edges of it, then I've used a couple of the cute Adhesive Backed Peppermints, Oh and the Sweetest Star bundle

The other 1/2 of the line of designer paper I used for this card, heat embossing the saying onto the Poppy Parade cardstock and using the ribbon unaltered. Oh yes and some of Drusy embellishments (soooo pretty, blingy)

Then the last 2 cards I wanted to use the snow globes I'd cut out and added some of the fine tip glue pen to make the "glass" shiny looking, took a bit longer, as you have to wait for the glue to dry and it needed a couple of coats, but I'm happy with the result (sadly doesn't show up well in photos!)

This card I used the pumpkin pie Stampin' Blends to colour the ribbon, for another shade of ribbon!
