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...

Interactive Card Class for July

Image
Hi There! Well continuing on with the theme of "Christmas in July" I have 2 Spinning wheel Cards to create.  the class date is Thursday 26th July at 10.30am and 7.30pm. Or you can order a kit from me, I can't stamp the images for you, but I can cut and organise everything and send instructions, both cards could be done with the same stamp set, or you could substitute one of your own. First up is this one made with the Cookie Cutter Christmas Stamp set , I'll add a short video at the end, so you can see how the wheel at the side turns and you get 4 different pictures through the hole. (the Eskimo girl, A gingerbread man, Reindeer and Santa)     This other card uses the cute Seasonal Chums stamp set and matching dies Seasonal Tags Framelits The little tree turns round to reveal the cute deer that's in this stamp set and the snowman. And to see them in action, check out this short video: I hope you can join me to create these cards (class cost $20...

3D train

Hi there, well with Bendigo Craft Alive looming on the horizon this weekend (by the way - watch Weekend Sunrise as they will be broadcasting from the show!! let me know if you see us on it!) Anyway, as I was saying with Craft Alive coming up, I was turning my mind to doing some 3D type items, I'd seen someone else had made a train using the Wood Crate Framelit dies , she'd used the really cute Animal Outing to put the kangaroo, giraffe, and Rhino in the carriages.  However I seem to be distinctly lacking in animal stamps :(  but then I remembered...... Yes! the Cookie Cutter Christmas has a reindeer in it! Cut the reindeer and Santa out with the matching Cookie Cutter Builder Punch (yay for punches!)  I was so pleased with the way this turned out, even Tom (the hubbie) was impressed! (he's insistent that I tell you the "smoke" was his idea lol) although I was the one that had to make it happen! I hope that people will like this at the show.  Do leave m...

Stampin' Up! Christmas Cards for classes in December

Image
Hi Everyone, Welcome to my new blog, I'm hoping to be able to work out how to offer much more with this blog! Here are the cards I'll be teaching you in December (obviously focusing on Christmas)! First up is this cute Cookie Cutter Christmas Card using the Cookie Cutter Christmas Bundle isn't the reindeer gorgeous?  I've also used the Festive Textured impressions embossing folder   and the Layering Ovals Framelits . Next up is this beautiful Silver bells card, I'm pleased with this card, I hope you like it too I couldn't help thinking of the Christmas song my Mum used to sing when I was young called Silver Bells!  I took a close up of the bells so you can see that they are silver embossed too. This card uses the Seasonal Bells bundle  and the Softly Falling Embossing folder  Oh and to cut the saying at the bottom (which is part of the stamp set) I've used the Bunch of Banners Framelit dies . I'm so pleased with the cards for this month...
