Something Saturday - Fancy Fold Card

-
Image
 Hi There Creators Today I'm showing you how to make the card that Paula (Yellow Bear Stamping) was showing off when we were together in New Zealand (couple of weeks ago in my video) see the video here: Live Video with Paula I have no idea if it has a special name, she found it on Connie Stewarts blog (from USA), so now I'm borrowing it and changing it (as I do....)  see my measurements down the bottom. Here is the "original style" card that I made: (click the links to see the products) This one uses Nested Essentials Dies , Courage & Faith Stamps , and Timeless Plaid Designer Paper on a backing cardstock of Pebbled Path (I'm going to be so sad to see that colour go when the In colours retire in May!) then in the video I (kind of) made this one: which uses Wildly Flowering Designer Paper , the same dies ( Nested Essentials) , and a new Stamp set: Tags of Thanks . then I made my sideways revised version....  for this I've used the rather lovely Everyday H...

Something Saturday - A bit of Random Embossing

-

 Hi there Creators

As I mention in the video I saw this idea on Facebook and just had to have a go and then was so excited I had share it with you too!  Oh such a cool way to use the Stampin' Up! masks!

You will need a Silicone Craft Sheet (Or Silly Cone, as one of my friends says 🤣) Masks and a Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine (and of course cardstock)

And this is what you end up with......

This first card uses the Linked Together Decorative Masks,  Two tone Reindeer Memories cardstock, which is has this cool effect when sanded, the reason it's called two tone is one side is lighter than the other side. I've used the Birthday Celebrations Dies to create the banner, and the With You in Mind stamp set (love big sayings) Not forgetting some of the Antique Pearls.

Stampin' Up! Birthday Celebrations, Linked together masks

then again the Linked Together Decorative Masks, (2 together on this card) along with the Bright Borders Stamps, To the Point Label Punch, then with the fabulous Night of Navy Glittered Ribbon (I have added a strip of Navy cardstock under it to make the glitter more "stand-out-ish"

Stampin' Up!, Linked Together masks,

this next one uses the Linked Together Decorative masks (although I should have brushed colour on before I stuck everything down, so it is a bit patchy. The Dies are again the Birthday Celebrations, which actually does come as a rather nice bundle with a stamp set, check it out here: Birthday Celebrations Bundle. 
Stampin' Up!, Linked Together masks,

And last but not least, this uses the last Linked Together mask in the background and also the Layers of Beauty Bundle (masks, Stamps and dies) it's soooo gorgeous when you put it all together!

I hope this inspires you to have a go too!

Hi there Creators, I have worked out our class cards for May now woo hoo!   Class dates are:  Tuesday 7th at 1.30pm in Laanecoorie, Thursday 9th at 7pm in Laanecoorie, and Saturday 11th at 10.30am in Maryborough.  Class cost is $24 for 4 cards with envelopes.  It's important to book your place if you're coming to Laanecoorie as space is limited. Here are the cards we'll be creating: Using the beautiful Unbounded Love Bundle and Layers of Beauty (I've only used the stamp set here, but Oh My Goodness the bundle is so worth it!), also showcasing some of the new colours: Shy Shamrock and Peach Pie (guess which is which 🤣) Then back in time a little as this was in the mini catalogue (if you want it, buy it now before the end of the month while it's still a bundle price with 10% off it!)  Ice Cream Swirl Bundle (stamps & dies)  again showcasing one of the "new" colours, although Pretty in Pink is actually an old colour with a come-back! Moving onto t...

Something Saturday - Twisted Star Ornament

-
Image
 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 t...

GDP #261

 Hi there Creators, The Global Design Project #261 challenge this week is a colour challenge: (check out the link to see what others have done)   So I thought I'd join in again, and try out a card type I've seen someone else show off recently  I know it would have been on one of the Stampin' Up! facebook pages, I can't remember exactly what she used, but I liked the 3D'ness of it 😄 and I have no idea what the card is called possibly Diorama card would work?  anyway I set to work trying to work out how she'd done it (although I suspect if I could re-find hers she'd probably already done instructions lol)  I always seem to take the hard way..... So here is my "take" on it using these colours.  The inside is the impressive bit..... The outside not so impressive, but check out that gorgeous Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper !  I've teamed it up with the Ornate Layers Dies , and the super soft ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metall...
