Something Saturday - Triple Ripped Card

Image
Hi there Creators I saw a quick link thingo of a card on Facebook, and sort of noted what she did - which was really cool, so set about having a go and I have no idea if it's the same as I can't remember what it was called or who had done it, but it worked out well anyway, and now I get to share it with you🤣 So here we are...... You might recognise this one as it's one in my "card conglomerate" of Mega Class cards for 19th July (if you're keen to come to the Mega class or get it as a mail order class, you've got till 2nd July to book your spot) check out the blog post on the class here: July Mega Class Then in the video I made up the "bones" of this card, which I've then stamped up using the Inspiring Imperfections bundle (great stamp set & dies) For the base I've used the Misty Moonlight two-tone cardstock, it's kind of cool as it has the same colour on both sides, just one light and one darker.  I've cut this to 9" x ...

July CreateAbles Team afternoon

Hi Everyone, thought I'd just share with you what I taught my CreateAbles team ladies today (for those of you who are part of my team and weren't able to join us I am uploading instructions, and more photos for you on our team facebook page) Anyway on with the blog post!  I taught them "Step" cards; side step and middle step Here is the "Side Step": We used the new Carols of Christmas stamp set and thinlits (love the cute little deer!) The second card is a Middle Step card; this one we used the Birthday Delivery bundle , cutting out some of the images from the Designer Series paper with the thinlits.  The little girl facing forwards, and the cake are from the Designer Series Paper (also the background blue dotty paper) and the back of the girl and the flowers are stamped then coloured in. Jenny Stewart also taught us how to make a Zig Zag card, and I showed the girls how to use the embossing paste, and spritz colour over top. We had a fun afte...

Ideas for July's classes

Hi Everyone, I missed out doing Christmas in July with you all, so I thought we could do a Christmas in August instead!, So here goes, I need some input with these, as we'll need to pick 4, and I'd rather they were chosen by you who are coming!  #1:this one is for sure, because I really love it! and it shows you the baby wipe ink pad technique it uses the new Carols of Christmas stamp set, wow the sayings/fonts in this set are amazing! #2 this one is growing on me, I wasn't sure that I liked it much when I first did it, but it does show another technique - Versamark resist, with the new/old Glossy White Cardstock . The stamp sets I've used are: Watercolor Words (always makes me cringe spelling colour that way lol) and Star of Light . #3 Not sure if this is too busy, I really like it but then I'm prone to these colours lol!, and not sure if you can tell but the star in the middle is embossed with gold again using the Star of Light Stamp set Oh and the music ...

Anyway on to the stamp set and matching framelits, and what I finally had the chance to create today! this is the first card I created, I just had to try out the framing thinlits, and the flower thinlits, then the saying wouldn't fit in lol, so I then had to cut that up to fit it in! Next up: These trees are cut out of the card, and I've layered Pear Pizzazz cardstock under it with Clear Wink of Stella painted on top to give a sparkly effect (oh and here's the saying stamp all together!) Then I moved onto this car...
