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...

(if aren't part and you want to know more, just ask) So my first card is the Thankyou card, which uses the lovely Dandelion Wishes Stamp set , and also the Abstract Impressions Stamp set for the saying and underline.  Oh and the Detailed Trio Punch for the corners.

Thankyou card and Tag Card for July

Hi There! Thought I'd share with you the thankyou card and tag that you can make up into a card that I'll be sending out this month to everyone who orders from me.  I was making these as I was on my Stand at Craft Alive in Wodonga, here I am! so I was little limited to what I'd taken with me, which in this case was the Brights and Neutrals Stampin' Write Markers, and some of the new matching Brights ink pads. I'd seen so many beautiful cards made with both these stamp sets, so I succumbed! lol This one uses the Tropical Chic Bundle , Oh wow it's so gorgeous!  I just love the way it cuts out the fronds from the card, and leaves it intact.  And Oh isn't the flower so beautiful?  I've inked it up with 2 of the Stampin' Write markers, then used a dauber to blend the colours together.  I've used the same technique with the leaves, and 3 greens, effective isn't it?  If you want to see it "in the flesh" just make sure you place an ...
