Something Saturday - Click Clack Concertina Card

Image
 Hi there Creators Well I was sitting last night wondering what to do for my Something Saturday, and playing around with a bit of paper, ended up designing this card, I've made similar cards before like the cascade cards, this is probably a bit more basic, but I'm happy with it and it's way simpler to create, but still packs a cool Woah factor🤣  I've used Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper which is on the last chance list. I decided it needed a sentiment so picked out this one from Sweetest Star Stamp set (last chance list again), because it has 6 words (1 for each panel!😃) and these Adhesive backed Snowflake Assortment are also on the last chance list and happen to be reduced to 1/2 price (woo hoo!) Ok, onto measurements.... You'll need a sheet of A4 for the base card, score it at 9.9cm either end, then cut in 1/2 at 10.5cm, fold so each piece is concertina'd into 1/3rd's then each folded piece needs a cut that goes 1/2 way up the card (in the...

Something Saturday - 3D Star Cards

Image
 Hi there Creators In class the other day Rose mentioned she'd seen this card on Facebook or Youtube from a lady called Dee Slater, and showed me a photo of it, and explained briefly how to make it, she then sent me through a few measurements (all inches) and if you know me, I'm an A4 metric girl, so conversion time.... (actually not very difficult this time) And Voila..... and of course the back view.... So that is the card I made in the video using the Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper , I kind of like that I was able to keep the pattern going all the way round.  Then I happened to have one of the Decorative Tree Dies cut out from the Festive Glimmer Paper (bonus, love it when things are just hanging around my craft desk and they come in handy!) Then I kept the fun going, and decided to make an 8 pointed star card.... (this one is the shorter size) This time I used the Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper. and back.... And then just so you can see them both toget...

Something Saturday - Corner Fold Pop Out card

Image
 Hi there Creators,  well today is an original design by me, I've called it "Corner Fold Pop Out Card".  Last weekend was our big Multi-team weekend Creative Connections event, and I was doing a presentation on the Bright & Beautiful suite , and taught this card at the end. In our video today I've used the Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper which is the same one I was using in my Something Saturday card last week.  I love that is has a Vanilla Base colour rather than white - gives my white cardstock a bit of a rest! 😁  Anyway let's show you the photos then instructions after.... So this is the card I taught at the Creative Connections event:   One of my friends suggested I should decorate the front of the card, so the one I did in the video now has this on the front of it:  Then when you open it up, the daisies pop out, I felt this paper went well with the Cheerful Daisies Dies, so I've used the dies to die cut direct from the Designer Paper ...

Something Saturday - Bendi Cards

Image
 Hi there Creators,  I was deciding what to make for my Tutorial card (I'm part of a global monthly tutorial group called Crafty Collaborations, when you purchase $75+ of goodies from me, I send the whole tutorial of around 35+ projects out as a thank you).  Anyway, I was at the Picture to Page Show and the only stamp set I had with me was the Legendary Ride (motorbikes) with Ready to Ride matching designer papers , so guess what I used 🤣  and here is the card I created..... Anyway I was thinking it would be fun to make another similar card, and that I should do a video on it, so...... here is the card I made for the video I've used the True Beauty Bundle to create it, along with the Abigail Rose Designer Paper, Oh and not forgetting the Delicate Edges Dies! As promised the measurements for the Bendi cards: Take your A4 piece of card, cut it in  1/2 lengthways, then score it in 1/2 at 14.8cm With the front of the card you'll now cut it so you just have a sect...

Something Saturday - Explosion card

Image
 Hi there Creators, Today on the back of doing an explosion card with the kids at school for Father's Day, I thought I'd make up one for a video. I've used the gorgeous Abigail Rose Designer Paper , love the soft muted colours, in the video I end up making the innards for 2 cards, so here are the finished cards..... I decided to go nice and simple and let the gorgeous card speak for itself a bit of the Natural finish ribbon, and some of the Iridescent Rhinestones (gee these go with everything!) Then on to the inside of the card, which is what I show how to create in the video, I've used a bit of vellum to pop the saying onto.   To get the colour to stay on the vellum, first I've inked my stamp in Versmark, so the ink will stay wet for long enough, then inked it in my colour (in this case Early Espresso - which turned out pinker than I expected!🤣 (if you ink with colour then ink with versamark you'll end up with ink in your versamark pad!) Then stamped and add...

3D Card kit for May 2020

Image
Hi there Creators, A couple of months ago I made up a card for a friend who was having a baby, I used one of my retired sets that I'm still quite fond of I think it's called bookcase builder, I aired it on Facebook and a couple of people said "Ooo I'd love to make that...."  however as it uses retired stock, and I'm not allowed in my Stampin' Up! contract to stamp images for others to use, I've re-vamped it with current dies and embossing folders, and they should work with whatever stamps you have on hand, thought you might like to see my original card first: If you're on my email list, I did elude to the fact that I had made up a couple of 3D cards that I wanted to make into a kit for you, for some reason I keep putting it off, so I'm now "biting the bullet" as it were, and here they are.......(drum roll please......) First up the "Lady's Boudoir" then  "Mens Shed" Both cards fold completely...
