Something Saturday - Quilted Card

 Hi Creators, 

Today I'm showing off how to create a quilted pattern for a card, I recently found a card I'd made some time ago, with this on it, I figured I'd resurrect it as I think it's really pretty!

However let's show you the cards.....

To make these cards I used the Beautiful Shapes Dies, in particular the largest plain circle, I cut 9 of these from the pretty paper, plus one from scrap paper

The Scrap paper one I folded into quarters, then drew the straight lines to create a square (so I could work out what size template square I needed)  measured that up and cut a square from thicker card to be my template:

I then folded my pretty paper circles round the square, removed the square and pressed them down properly.

Once all were folded I then stuck them onto a spare square of cardstock (I made mine 8cm square as I knew the length of the pattern would be 9cm and I didn't want the card to show underneath)

when you're sticking them on, start in the middle and work your way out!

To see what I used check out this link: What Heather Used

If  you didn't catch the video, here it is....

I hope this inspires you to create, and I'd love to see what you make so feel free to email or post in the comments!

God Bless love

Cards for May

 Hi there Creators

Well thought I'd better share the cards we'll be making in May at my classes, which incidentally the class dates are:  Wednesday 4th at 10.30am, Thursday 5th at 7pm (both in Laanecoorie) and the Maryborough class is on Saturday 7th at 10.30am.

I'm hoping we can gather a few more people for the Maryborough class, so do tell your friends!  

We'll be making 4 cards, (with envelopes) for $20

Let's kick off the "show & tell".....

this first one uses the brand new Wisteria Wishes (oh this set is rapidly becoming one of my favourites!)  Also some a couple of the new In Colours (can you spy which ones?)

Next up, I can't resist the pull of the ocean..... with Waves of Inspiration (and another new In Colour)

Number 3 (if you know me you'll know I love all things gold🤣)  This uses the gilded leafing, along with the quite cool Beautiful Shapes dies, and Biggest Wish Stamps

Last but not least I've dug out the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamps and done a spot of bleaching with them (such a great effect!).  I think I'll have a selection of bling to use on your sunflowers (especially as I now realise that the From my Heart Faceted Gems will be retired by the time we do the class)

 Hopefully you can join us, - book your place!, and if you can't , then I hope these cards inspire you to create!

God Bless love
