Something Saturday - Triangle Fancy Fold Cards

Image
 Hi There Creators Today I thought I'd show off  how to create one of the sets of cards I taught at Craft Alive. If you would like a kit, I do have a few spare left over, so please ask me, I've reduced them down to $20 per kit and you do get full instructions for 4 cards, plus all the "ingredients" to create them and extra cardstock 😃 The Turtles Kit is this one (this is made in the same way as the Fancy Fold Wings Card that you can find the video to here:  https://youtu.be/UdOBtXuOHno Then the Triangle cards that we're concentrating on today..... I promised in my video to share the measurements with you for these 2 cards, so here goes.......

Cards for September Classes

Image
Hi there Creators,  almost into September!  My classes are on Wednesday 7th, at 10.30am in Laanecoorie, Thursday 8th 7pm Laanecoorie and Saturday 10th 10.30am in Maryborough. $20 to create 4 cards, let me know if you want to book your place. And here's what we'll be making..... First up we'll be using the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks , I love the effects you can get with these! You pick either the Hello Friend or the Happy Birthday, you can't see it terribly well but there is also bling on each of these (more understated in the "male" card) Next up is the Christmas Lights stamp set used on this card with the Brightest Glow stamps for the sayings  I admit to buying the Lights Aglow Suite as I liked everything that was in it and considering you get 9 items in the suite at $261 it's not bad value! (2 stamp sets, 2 die sets, 3 lots of specialty papers, ribbon and embellishments)  Ironically the Distressed Gold Specialty paper isn't part of it, but wai...

Something Saturday - Ripped Cards

Image
 Hi there Creators, today I was mulling over what it would look like if rather than curling the ends like I did to create the scroll cards, I just ripped the cardstock, I rather like the effect and *bonus* you get 2 cards out of one ripping session 🤣 (and let's face it there's a certain satisfaction gained from ripping paper! lol) Ok so the first 2 cards I'd made before the video, I had ripped kind of "triangles" out.  You'll need 2 pieces of Designer Paper (probably with a smallish pattern would be best), and you attach the ripped off pieces to one and the remainder to the other: The first card shows the piece that I ripped the bits out of, and the second is the ripped out pieces. I used designer paper and white cardstock that measured 9.5cm x 13.8cm that way I could add a mat if I wanted to of 10cm x 14.3cm (which I did in the second lot of cards)  I've gone with using the beautiful Hues of Happiness Designer Papers , and my "go to" sayings st...
