Something Saturday - Peekaboo Diagonal Cut Card

Image
 Hi there Creators As I mention in the video I was having a bit of a nostalgic wander through my old catalogue (that retired on 6th May) and came across a page that had a couple of fun fold cards.  So here we are today, trying one of them out.....  Theirs is landscape, mine is portrait but the measurements would be pretty similar just having the fold of the card in a different place. Here is mine: as you can see it's kind of a card in a card.  I've used the Celebratory Sips Suite ,  although I confess I haven't used the stamps & dies in this particular card!  The suite has Stamps, dies, 2 embossing folders, bling, ribbon, and Designer paper, all for $138.25 which I think is pretty good!

So here is my "take" on it using these colours.  The inside is the impressive bit.....

Hi there Creators! Well the Corona-virus seems to have brought the world to a standstill, however I don't believe it has to bring our creating to a standstill! especially as a spot of crafting is so de-stressing and helps us to focus on more positive thoughts! So I'm bringing you ClassCards@home....  You bring the stamps, ink and glue, I'll "bring" the rest of the supplies.   Here's how it works, click on the link below by Friday 3rd April to order and pay for your kit, I will get the kits all organised over that weekend and mail them out on Monday 6th. I'll be offering a video which I'll post on here, to show you how to pop your cards together, as well sending the usual paper instructions with your kit. And here is my first ever ClassCards@Home..... cards :) First card is a nice bright one using the Layering Circle dies , and the gorgeous Iridescent Sequin assortment .   The next card uses the 2 Daisy Punches - the larger one is just call...
