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 - Cascading Pleated Fold Card

Image
 Hi There Creators, I promised when I was showing off my swap cards from OnStage that I'd work out how to create a couple of cards I received. So, here we go, I have discovered they're called Cascading Pleated Fold Cards! (good start) Here are my 2 cards I made using this technique, I figured I could have a go at both landscape and portrait cards. 😍 The first one is made using the absolutely gorgeous Meandering Meadows Designer Series Paper . It took a bit of cutting to get it right as I wanted each scene in front to echo the scene behind, but I think I got it! Then the card I made up in the video ended up like this, I've used the Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper (which is happily continuing onto the next catalogue!), and the Ice Cream Swirl Bundle (again continuing on)   Although Sam (Mr 13 year old) did ask what flavour ice-cream is that meant to be?  I said Chocolate & Boysenberry (Hummm, Ok Mum....) 🤣 Anyway on to the measurements.... I worked out that

Something Saturday - Meandering Meadows Mini Cards

Image
 Hi there Creators, Today I'm showing you how to create 5 really cute mini cards with a single sheet of this gorgeous Meandering Meadows Designer Series Paper (it's an Online Exclusive, in case you're wondering why you haven't seen it in the catalogue) - check the link out to see it! In the catalogue are these cute 3" square mini envelopes (I rediscovered mine the other day) hence this post came about. 😃 Sometimes you just want a mini card to go with something! First things first, let's show you the cards, then give you the measurements, and the video The first set I made up before the video are these ones: bear in mind that there is a different design on both sides of the paper, I've also used the Adhesive Backed Dragonflies & Birds , they actually remind me of the Brushed Brass Butterflies that are in the annual catalogue (which I use a fair bit)  I've also used the Double Oval Punch (bit of a favourite punch - such a handy size)!  The Circle
