Hi there Creators Today I thought I'd show off the Suitcase Treat Boxes , I think they'd be perfect to gift jewelry in for Christmas or birthdays. This time I decided to decorate it with the Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper , as I figured if I'm giving jewelry then it's likely to be for a girl, and this is very pink!🤣 Also essentials when doing this sort of thing are Tombow Adhesive , as it gives you just a little bit of wiggle room when sticking down the elements, the Take your pick tool , so useful for any projects but owing to needing to cut a small section out for the handle to poke through you can screw off the sticky end and and add in ..... Take your pick crafter tips 3 different tips one of which happens to be a blade. lastly I finished it off with the Pretty in Pink Bordered Ribbon (which is definitely still current having checked it!) So as you can see I ended up making a card to match with some of the off cuts that were...
Something Saturday - Impossible Card

Hi there Creators
I figured I'd try my hand at an "impossible" card today (not to be confused with the never ending card🤣)
But, just quickly don't forget to check out the retiring bargains in my Stampin' Up! shop (there's some great reductions!😉)
I think it's called "impossible" due to the fact it is made from one piece of A6 cardstock
I used the gorgeous Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper and the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle (Stamps, dies, embossing folder) I figured they actually went quite nicely together.
The card I made up and showed in the video is this one:
I wanted a pop of colour hence the butterflies ended up in Berry Burst with some of the lovely Basic Gray & Smoky Slate Pearls on themI reckon you could probably make this card any size you like (although A6 sheet fits nicely in a C6 envelope!)
So my measurements are as follows:
- score your card in 1/2 lengthways
- on one side of the score line find the 1/2 way point and cut down from the edge to the score line
- on the other side of the score line measure 2 1/2cm in each side and cut from the edge to the score line
- then twist!
Check out the video to see how it works!
I hope this inspires you to create, and you have a go too
God Bless love

Something Saturday - Mixed Media Florals
Hi there Creators, Well today I thought we'd check out something from the new catalogue, which will be live in just a few days (7th Jan). I saw the Mixed Media Florals Memories & More Card Pack in the catalogue and thought they looked lovely, and yes they really are gorgeous! (link prob won't work till 7th) Anyway in the video I show off all the cards in the pack, and mention that I am doing share packs for various things in the new catalogue (Designer Paper, Ephemera Packs, Embellishments, Ribbons and this Memories & More) See more details at the end or send me a message. And here are the cards I made up using the Basic White Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes : This firs one uses one of the larger cards, a couple of stickers, the stamp set "simply said" for the saying and some of the pretty Riverside Irregular Pearls . Then this card is a small one, using the same stamp set "Simply Said" , a sticker and some more of the Riversid...
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 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...
