Something Saturday - Click Clack Concertina Card

Image
 Hi there Creators Well I was sitting last night wondering what to do for my Something Saturday, and playing around with a bit of paper, ended up designing this card, I've made similar cards before like the cascade cards, this is probably a bit more basic, but I'm happy with it and it's way simpler to create, but still packs a cool Woah factor🤣  I've used Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper which is on the last chance list. I decided it needed a sentiment so picked out this one from Sweetest Star Stamp set (last chance list again), because it has 6 words (1 for each panel!😃) and these Adhesive backed Snowflake Assortment are also on the last chance list and happen to be reduced to 1/2 price (woo hoo!) Ok, onto measurements.... You'll need a sheet of A4 for the base card, score it at 9.9cm either end, then cut in 1/2 at 10.5cm, fold so each piece is concertina'd into 1/3rd's then each folded piece needs a cut that goes 1/2 way up the card (in the...

Hi Everyone, Wow isn't the year travelling fast!! Tomorrow is May, so here are the cards I'll be teaching in my classes, The dates are: Wednesday 3rd May 10.30am (meant to be in Bendigo, but the venue we usually use is unavailable, so it will be in my classroom for those who fancy the trip out), Saturday 6th May in Maryborough at 10am, and Wednesday 10th May at 7.30pm (my classroom in Laanecoorie)  Do let me know if you'd like to join in any of the classes :) first card uses the Watercolour Wings Stamp set , and the Bold Butterfly Framelits (on the retiring list), if you have the stamp set, but not the framelits, I recommend that you get on and purchase them quickly before they run out! Next up is this pretty flower from "You've Got This" stamp set , also a peek at one of the new In Colours, Lemon Lime Twist!, I think it looks so fresh, and a bit of Clear Wink of Stella over the flower I thought I should use up some of my favourite Designer Series Pa...

Hi Everyone, Well, there is a new Challenge over on the INKspiration Facebook Page !  As my aim is to join in with as many as possible, I had a spare moment or two today, so here we are! I have an aim to go through all my stamp sets and use them all my at least twice!, as I'm finding that  a lot of them I used heaps when I first got them, and now they've made their way to the bottom of the pile, and kind of get forgotten about, in preference of the new and shiny!  I still love this stamp set "Garden in Bloom" though! Oh I'd better tell you what the challenge is! So the challenge is to use these colours: Wisteria Wonder, Soft Sky, Mint Macaron, Whisper White and Garden Green.  My plan was to watercolour on shimmery white cardstock, umm didn't go so well!  So instead I watercoloured on watercolour paper, used the Decorative Label Punch for the saying, and created this:   which I like, but as I'd also used Stazon black and the new gorgeous...
