Something Saturday - Fancy Fold Card

 Hi there Creators

Well, today I have this really cool fancy fold card to show you, courtesy of our Team Zoom the other night and my friend (and downline) Rose.  We crafted along with her to create our own versions of the card she showed us.

Just quickly before I do, if you're considering joining Stampin' Up! there is a deal on for 2 more days (till end of 31st May)  you pay $169 and get $235 of your choice of goodies, plus the 5 new In colours (worth $25 each pad)   OR you pay $169 and get $300 of your choice of goodies!!  either way it's a bargain, check it out here:  Join Stampin' Up!

Oh and I keep forgetting to mention that I'm going to be holding a Crafting Retreat in April 2027, check out the details here: Crafting Retreat April 2027

This was my version, using the gorgeous embossing folder: Floral Spray 3D Embossing Folder. 

As I prefer to use A4 when I make cards, I had a bit of a play around and changed it up, came up with this: using the fun Beach Boardwalk Designer Series paper

Then I moved onto making this one in the video, I used my favourite piece of DSP from Natures Walk Designer Series paper, then added the sayings on the white piece of Sunset Shimmer Vellum, and grabbed some of the sayings from A Family Celebration Stamp set, Oh and used some of the Sparkle Dot Essentials to cover over the glue dots that hold the vellum down (discovered the sparkle dots are on the retiring list and discounted - shame they are so pretty, but bonus if you like them and want to get some!)  Just a heads up the Retiring/Last Chance list is being updated on 2nd June, so worth having a look - I'm sure some things will be gone in a flash!

And now the bit you've all been waiting for: the measurements.......

You'll need:

• A base card measuring 29cm x 10.5cm, scored at 8.5cm, 10.5cm, 15.6cm & 20.5cm
• 12"x 10cm  Designer Paper strip cut in sequence: 8cm/ 1.5cm/ 9cm/ 8cm  cut the 9cm piece down to two lots of 4.5cm
• Stick these all into the corresponding slots on your base card, make sure the 4.5cm strips are well stuck down all over, otherwise they will fall off when you do the next bit!
• Next cut horizontal lines into the middle section that has the two 4.5cm pieces of DSP on it the lines need to be cut at 2.5cm, 4cm, 6.5cm and 8cm
• fold it up and your base card is now complete, then you can decorate it

If this is as clear as mud, here's the video, which hopefully makes more sense!😃

I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love

Class Cards for June

 Hi There Creators

My goodness the months go quickly don't they?  I've just advertised my very first CreateAble Crafting Retreat in April 2027 (limited numbers due to accommodation restraints) if you're interested and didn't receive the email, let me know! (and make sure you sign up for my future emails!)

Oh also if you don't know already there is a joining special this month, which is pretty cool, you can either get the 5 new In colour ink pads for free or an extra $65 to spend on top of the usual join offer which is: pick out $235 of goodies and only pay $169 (the ink pad offer is the better one as they're worth $25 each!) Check it out here: Join Heather's Team

Anyway today I have next months regular card class cards to show you, These classes are on Friday 5th June at 1pm in my classroom (Laanecoorie) and Saturday 6th June in Maryborough at Wattle City Church.

And here goes......

This first card uses the rather lovely Fern & Flora Bundle (stamps &dies), plus the matching Fern & Flora 3D embossing folder (it's all new in the catalogue🤩)

Next Up I've used something from my Paper Pumpkin Subscription (Wonderful Scenes Dies), which actually seems to have sold out already!  They are a special die set, includes the "wonderful", the fireworks, butterflies, flowers and frame. I've also used a stamp set (which is still available!) A Family Celebration, it's kind of cool that it gives a heap of family title names eg Mum, Dad, Better Half,  - check it out with the link!

This next card is probably my favourite this month!  In the class folks will pick which one they want to make, I just adore the little dogs and cats in this Cutest Crew Bundle, as I write it's currently out of stock, but should be back in again hopefully before the class! add a bit of colour and a saying cut out from the Forever Florals Dies plus one of the little furry's cut out with the dies and up on dimensionals, and voila.....

And last but not least this ultra elegant card using the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder and the 2026-2028 In Colour Dots.  The embossing folder is one of the big ones 8"x 6"!

Well that's it folks, I really hope you can join me at a class, but if you can't I hope these inspire you to create

God Bless love
