Something Saturday - Hooray for Honeycomb Kit

Image
 Hi there Creators, Today I thought we'd take a look at one of the new Kits that Stampin' Up! has brought out, it's really fun!, the name "honeycomb" kind of gives it away🤣 There are 9 cards to create, and it's a nice simple kit, would make an excellent gift for anyone who is thinking of starting off with card-making, there's no stamping involved - it's all "stick it together" and everything is included to do this.  At $32 it works out to $3.56 per card (which let's face it is pretty cheap for a card these days!) So here are the cards you can make (3 of each): Don't you just love the matching envelopes? The front of each card has clear embossed shiny bits on it (most obvious on the rainbow card at the top! with my photography) And there you have it, I haven't had the chance to play around and see what else I can create with this kit yet, so if you get it and do play around, let me know what you do! If you missed the video here it

Something Saturday - Bendi Cards

 Hi there Creators,  I was deciding what to make for my Tutorial card (I'm part of a global monthly tutorial group called Crafty Collaborations, when you purchase $75+ of goodies from me, I send the whole tutorial of around 35+ projects out as a thank you).  Anyway, I was at the Picture to Page Show and the only stamp set I had with me was the Legendary Ride (motorbikes) with Ready to Ride matching designer papers , so guess what I used 🤣  and here is the card I created..... Anyway I was thinking it would be fun to make another similar card, and that I should do a video on it, so...... here is the card I made for the video I've used the True Beauty Bundle to create it, along with the Abigail Rose Designer Paper, Oh and not forgetting the Delicate Edges Dies! As promised the measurements for the Bendi cards: Take your A4 piece of card, cut it in  1/2 lengthways, then score it in 1/2 at 14.8cm With the front of the card you'll now cut it so you just have a section 5 cm hig

 Hi there Creators Today I thought I'd show off these gorgeous Delicate Edges Dies (they were on my "must get" list) and I haven't been disappointed!  I thought I'd show case a couple of unusual ways of using them, so here goes...... In the video I show making your own stamps out of them, using them as masks and more. This first card shows how I finished off the piece that I had masked back to back, makes such a pretty border!  I used the blending brushes to add the colour and I find it gets into the "cracks" easier than the daubers do.  I've used the Biggest Wish Stamp set for all these cards (such a handy stamp set!) And I couldn't resist using the Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels , they just go with everything! Next up I've used the 2 negative pieces from the die cut and coloured in between them - remarkably easy to do with this die! and here's the actual piece that was cut out, I've used the fabulous Artistic Mix Decorative Mask
