Something Saturday - Triangle Fancy Fold Cards

Image
 Hi There Creators Today I thought I'd show off  how to create one of the sets of cards I taught at Craft Alive. If you would like a kit, I do have a few spare left over, so please ask me, I've reduced them down to $20 per kit and you do get full instructions for 4 cards, plus all the "ingredients" to create them and extra cardstock 😃 The Turtles Kit is this one (this is made in the same way as the Fancy Fold Wings Card that you can find the video to here:  https://youtu.be/UdOBtXuOHno Then the Triangle cards that we're concentrating on today.....

Something Saturday - Twisted Star Ornament

 Hi there Creators

I saw this cool star ornament in another video, and had a bit of a play around with it, ending up with this.... (with a retired Designer Series Paper)

Then I ended up making this one (somewhat puffier 🤣) in the video with the current Natures Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper

Ok, to make this you'll need 16 strips of 15cm x 1cm Designer Paper & glue (I used tombow)
Use 8 of the pieces for each side of the star, you twist them like a Breast Cancer ribbon, but with a small "head section" and have a gap of around 4cm at the free end, and around 4cm of the 2 free arms (if that makes sense, it should if you've seen the video!)

you then glue 8 of the "heads" together to make the middle of the star
then the tails glue together to form the points.
once you've made up 2 of these, you then glue them back to back, adding a piece of twine into the last point

If you missed the video here it is: 


I hope this inspires you to create one too!

God Bless love
