Something Saturday - Origami Envelopes

Image
 Hi There Creators, Guess what? it's that time of the week again for Something Saturday!😃 This week I happened to be scrolling through Facebook and came across this origami envelope quick video, so I have deciphered the video (you know how they do it and it's so fast!) And I've worked out if you do it with 12x12" cardstock you get an envelope worthy of a card, and a 6x6" piece gives you a gift card sized envelope. Here they are: then I'll try and explain how to make them...... This first one is made using one of the 12x12" pieces of  Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and this smaller one uses one of the 6x6" pieces of Full of Life Designer Series Paper Now, how to create these envelopes: take your square piece of designer cardstock, and fold in 1/2 diagonally Open it up and fold one side in to the middle: then fold as shown: open up the bottom flap and fold in the sides fold up the bottom tuck the point bit inside the envelope (you might want t...

January's Tag card

Image
Hi, If you order from me this month, you'll be receiving this Tag Card (unless you order over $180) then you'll receive January's Mail Out Class :) So here is the Tag Card: I have used the Coffee Cafe bundle (stamps and thinlits) along with the matching Coffee Break Designer Series Paper .  To put your card together, fold 1/2" over on each of the pieces of Designer Series Paper attaching the flap down well, then sponge round the edge of each, and adhere them to your card. Lastly add your tag to the front of the card using dimensionals (tuck the twine under, or trim it off).  It would look quite nice on a scrap page too I reckon, what do you think? If you have ordered over $180 of goodies, you'll receive not only 2 Sale-a-Bration items but from me you'll be getting this January Mail out Card Class which uses the Sweet Soiree Embellishment Kit (included).  If you would like the kit, but can't manage the $180 I do have it available for $25, let me kn...

Coffee & Cards Class on Monday 20th Nov

Image
Hi Everyone, My 2nd Coffee&Cards class in Dunolly is on again this coming Monday .  I was inspired by one of my swaps from OnStage, having had in my mind that I wanted to use the Coffee Cafe suite of products but wanting to somehow tie it in with Christmas, I got given a card that had 2 coffee cups with Christmas sayings on them.  Highly observant me, hadn't realised that there is a set in the Holiday Catalogue that actually coordinates with the Coffee Cafe framelit dies ! it's called Merry Cafe (on page 46), Ha who would have known? lol However as I don't have that set, I've gone with one that is on the Extravaganza list - on 20 Nov you'll be able to buy this stamp set "Every Good Wish" for 20% less!! on that day only (let me know if you want to see the list!) Oh and the Coffee Cup framelits are on the list with 20% off too! Anyway on to the cards: This makes me think of Christmas in Australia, due to the heat, and to me it's a cold dri...

Got a new stamp set and dies!

Hi Everyone, well surprise, surprise I bought another new Stamp set and matching dies! lol This time I figured because I'm doing a "Coffee&Cards" class I should really have the Coffee Cafe Bundle See? how appropriate! So, I finally set to work with it and created these 2 cute little cards....... The cards are small (dinky I'd say), the cardstock measures 7 x 14.8cm, and then scored at 7.4cm (you can get 6 out of a piece of A4) Kind of loving the cute little Corrugated elements too!  (the little heart and oval)  and this evening I have just discovered that there is a cute tiny coffee cup that is cut out with the dies too that's in the Designer Series Paper (Coffee break Designer Series Paper)! Umm I can feel some more playing with it coming along now I know about that....... Ironically I don't actually drink hot drinks (tea/coffee) however I do like my iced coffee/mocha, so I'm seeing those ice cubes in a drink lol. I hope this inspire...
