Something Saturday - Triple Ripped Card

Image
Hi there Creators I saw a quick link thingo of a card on Facebook, and sort of noted what she did - which was really cool, so set about having a go and I have no idea if it's the same as I can't remember what it was called or who had done it, but it worked out well anyway, and now I get to share it with you🤣 So here we are...... You might recognise this one as it's one in my "card conglomerate" of Mega Class cards for 19th July (if you're keen to come to the Mega class or get it as a mail order class, you've got till 2nd July to book your spot) check out the blog post on the class here: July Mega Class Then in the video I made up the "bones" of this card, which I've then stamped up using the Inspiring Imperfections bundle (great stamp set & dies) For the base I've used the Misty Moonlight two-tone cardstock, it's kind of cool as it has the same colour on both sides, just one light and one darker.  I've cut this to 9" x ...

Something Saturday - Brightest Birthday Kit

Image
  Hi there Creators Today we're checking out one of the new kits, I have to say WOW!, maybe it's the holographic blingy bits (ooooo bling....🤣)  if you're a regular reader of my blog or watch my YouTube or Facebook channels then you'll know I can't resist bling.  Anyway check out the kit here: Brightest Birthday Kit And here are the cards it makes.... oh and their matching (also blingy) envelopes. Then you'll notice on the first card with the balloons it has a box that has the holographic outline, which is actually a sticker, so in the video I show you how to get the sticker off and onto a separate piece of card without having to pick it off and re-piece it yourself. And this is the card I made with it:  I probably should have used the same Azure Afternoon colour, but I had this piece of Shy Shamrock hanging around my desk, so chose to use that instead, and seeing as the star stamp hadn't been used I figured I should put it into action.  Its not a bad littl...

Something Saturday - Petal Park Builder Punch

Image
 Hi There Creators I cannot believe it took me this long to get this punch 🤣  Once I started creating with it I actually had to stop myself to get on and do other things!!  If you don't have it I totally recommend getting it!  See this link: Petal Park Builder Punch. So in the video I create kind of 3D flowers using it, by curling the flowers, cutting them to the middle and overlapping one of petals on top of the one beside it, then layering the 3 flowers on top of each other, which looks really pretty..... (had to start with the most complicated 🤣) I also incorporated the beautiful Stamp set " You are Beautiful ", and the Sunny Day Iridescent dots (one of my fav embellishments currently) Then I thought I'd better just use them as they are without the cuts, and created this card And lastly simpler still, no layering the flowers and they still look lovely!  I stuck to the same colours for all 3 cards, the leaves done with Granny Apple Green Ink and the writing...
