Something Saturday - Origami Envelopes

Image
 Hi There Creators, Guess what? it's that time of the week again for Something Saturday!😃 This week I happened to be scrolling through Facebook and came across this origami envelope quick video, so I have deciphered the video (you know how they do it and it's so fast!) And I've worked out if you do it with 12x12" cardstock you get an envelope worthy of a card, and a 6x6" piece gives you a gift card sized envelope. Here they are: then I'll try and explain how to make them...... This first one is made using one of the 12x12" pieces of  Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and this smaller one uses one of the 6x6" pieces of Full of Life Designer Series Paper Now, how to create these envelopes: take your square piece of designer cardstock, and fold in 1/2 diagonally Open it up and fold one side in to the middle: then fold as shown: open up the bottom flap and fold in the sides fold up the bottom tuck the point bit inside the envelope (you might want t...

Hi there, Just thought I'd let you know about an extra class I'm offering in November on Thursday 22nd at 10.30am and 7.30pm (or you can order a kit) ask me for more details about this. And here is the main attraction ....... I'm so pleased with the way it turned out it uses the beautiful J oyous Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper , I've used the Merry Christmas to All Stamp set for the middle of the decoration, and the absolutely gorgeous Merry Merlot & Copper Reversible ribbon. Just in case you want a bit of a close up of the middle and that gorgeous ribbon...... In the class you will receive a whole pack of the Designer Series Paper and a Tombow Adhesive to use in the class and to take home for more use.  And as an added extra, I will have a few extra bits ready for you to create some cards at home with the left over cut off pieces of Designer Series Paper and some extra instructions to create these cards: With these cards I've used my fa...

Cards for October

Image
Hi there! well we're in the thick of school holidays now, but I have finally found a few minutes to let you know the cards we'll be creating in my classes in October. I'll just go with the order I made them in, so first up is this beautiful bouquet from "wishing you well" stamp set, I've loved the bouquet and bow since I set eyes on them in the holiday catalogue, they are what Stampin' Up! calls Distinktive stamps, which means that they create different opacities in a single stamped image, it's really amazing  doesn't it create such a beautiful subtle image?  I've also used the Swirly Frames stamp set with this card too. Card #2 I had to use this Buffalo Check stamp , oh my goodness it's fabulous! I've teamed it up with the His Light stamp set , I do love the font in this set! then added a couple of the gorgeous Red Rhinestone basic jewels . Moving onto Card #3 this was again one of those I couldn't resist stamp sets lo...
