Creating a Card with a window opening

 Hi there Creators,

In my Something Saturday video today I'm showing how to create a card that has a window type opening in it, if you plan to create your own advent calendars this would be one easy way to do it with the right dies 😀

So here are the cards I made using the Bright Baubles Bundle:

Firstly the lines on the outer card are simply made by dropping the ink pad repeatedly onto the card! (make sure you have scrap paper under your work, or everything will get coloured! lol) Also quite a good way to hide mistakes 🤣

Next up you create the opening - to do this you'll need to only partially cut the die, leaving a small amount uncut where you want the "hinge" to be (see the photo below)

After that it's just a case of decorating, you can have it as an opening to the inside of your card, or in my case I added extra under it.  

I added a piece of coloured card covering the back of the front of the card (how confusing is that?!), in other words I added a piece of card 14.5cm x 10cm behind the hole, then added a die cut directly onto this through the hole, so when the door opens you see the die cut.  Oooo Just thought it would look pretty cool with window sheeting instead of the coloured card!  Umm another time as it's now tipping down outside and that's not so appealing getting out to my craft room!

Ah well I hope you are all faring well with the rain and thunder storms!

And I hope these inspire you to create

Bright Baubles Bundle Bumper kit

 

Hi there Creators

As I mentioned in the email I've just sent out, I'm planning to offer a Bundle or Suite focus every month or every other month, as a "by mail" class.  I'm not sure I've got the right name for it yet, so votes please....

 Please could I have votes for what I call the Bundle focused one, (I've decided on Suite Sensation for the Suite one, although I'm up for suggestions on that one too)
Currently I have:

• Bundle Bumper (not my fav, but it's what I thought of first lol)
  
• Bundle Brilliance
• Bundle Bounty

If you have a better suggestion and I use it, I'll be sending you a pack of embellishments for free😊

I have teamed up the Delicate Baubles dies with the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper  to create these cards for those who like their traditional red and green Christmas colours:

 

This Kit is available to you for $42, which includes:

• An envelope for all except the long card. (which will fit into a standard letter envelope)

For those who order the bundle from me, I'll also be sending you an email with instructions for more cards to create.
