Something Saturday - Louvre Windows Card

Image
 Hi there Creators Today I thought I'd show you how to create this Louvre Windows card (little bit of trivia, did you know Louvres were invented back in the middle ages around 1500 years ago?, they were made of wood and put on pitched roofs to let out smoke, and increase circulation)😃 Anyway moving on.... I saw these kind of cards at the Picture to Page show, and of course the company selling them had dies to cut out all the components, but I figured I could make it work my own way. And so Voila: I made this card up before the video using the Celebratory Sips Designer paper (see all the links below) and here it is opened up (little difficult to photograph!) So this is the bit that's obscured above! Then in the video this is the card I made up, this time using the Beautiful Gallery Designer Paper (again links below) and the middle..... as you can see I used a bit more of the designer paper to cut out and add to the middle sections and again the obscured bit Links for products R...

Cards for February 2023 Classes

Image
Hi there Creators, Now we have the new Mini and Sale-a-Bration Catalogues out, of course I've been inspired to use new stuff....lol Classes are Wed 1st, at 10.30am and Thursday 2nd at 7pm in Laanecoorie then Saturday 4th 10.30am in Maryborough.  Class Cost $20 for the 4 cards. Don't forget to book your place. I will admit I had a struggle to know what to use (there's just so much and so little time!) Anyway, the Owls called to me (hoo? 🤣)  How cute is this little guy?  you can get the Adorable Owls stamp set for free when you purchase $90 of goodies (in fact that's the only way to get it, as it's one of the Sale-a-Bration offerings)  I've teamed it up with the Heart punch pack, and the Stampin' Blends (alcohol markers), and discovered that my Rustic Metallic bling slipped (oops) The next card I made is this one (which I think is really lovely in "real life" just hard to photograph well)  This also uses a Sale-a-Bration set: Beautifully Happy, a...

Cascade Card (Something Saturday)

Image
 Hi there Creators, Well today I'm showing how to make a really simple cascade card, once you've got the dimensions worked out you can make it in any size. I couldn't remember the name of this to begin with and waterfall card, accordion card both came to mind, but after a spot of googling, it's actually called a Cascade card! Here is the finished article (which will be off to my friends who are getting married this afternoon, so they shouldn't be able to see this post!)   As you can see I ended up having to create an envelope too for the card, as it was just too big for a standard envelope (plus this dresses the outside up nicely!)😉  How gorgeous is this Edens Garden Paper? and the meadow dies I think go nicely with it.  I couldn't resist using some of my favourite Garden Gems too (sad to think at the end of the year the Eden's garden paper and gems will retire 😢)  So if you want some get them now!! See this link for the products I used in this card:  Wha...

True Love Designer Series Paper

Image
 Hi there Creators Well after having played with a bit of the True Love Designer Series Paper, (DSP) I just couldn't resist continuing on with it, so here is my next lot of cards that I've made up with it.  I got a bit inspired when I saw what others had done with it and adding hearts into the equation!  Having recently treated myself to the Heart Punch Pack , which consists of 2 heart punches, that fit together nicely. Anyway onto the cards...... The first card I made I just punched the straight heart out from a piece of card, lined it up on the DSP and drew round the cut out heart, then I coloured in where it needed it, attached it together, and if you're a regular reader of my blog, you might remember that I stamped up the Many Messages stamp and cut out all the messages with the matching die, so I had 18 sayings to pick from (have to admit I'm loving this way of adding my sayings!)  check out the Many Messages Bundle !   This next card, I have punched out t...
