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 - Rainbow shaker glitter card

 Hi There Creators, If you watched the video you'll know I'm so chuffed with this card!  The glitter shakes freely, and I think it's amazing 😍  Sadly the glitter is a throwback from several years ago, but everything else is still current Brilliant Rainbow Dies / Stampin' Blends (various)/ Party Puffins (for the saying)/ with Stampin' Write Markers (to colour the stamp), and the most useful bits the Foam Adhesive Strips and Window Sheeting Ok, well I guess you want to see what all the fuss is about.....      I did put an overlay on the video at one part to say that I've worked out another way of adding the glitter, and I'd add it to this post, so here goes.... First up cut the big rainbow out of white cardstock (I used 10cm x 14.5cm) colour the cut pieces (I used my Stampin' Blends - alcohol markers to get a even graded look) lay (don't stick) the die cut white piece over your base card and slot in the coloured pieces, gluing them in place then rem

Party Puffins, Cards for June class

 Hi there Creators,  I thought for a change this month we'd do some kids cards, Sam (10)  has been to a couple of parties recently, and I've really enjoyed using this stamp set making up cards for them.  The Party Puffins are so cute! (I'm pretty sure they'd appeal to big kids too lol) So here we go..... Card 1:  I like doing fancy fold cards and they're always a winner with kids! Card 2:  Sparkly stuff!, also a winner with kids lol, I've used some of the Rainbow Glimmer Paper with this card, so pretty!, and as it's rainbow there's also a greeny/blue section which would work nicely for a boy! (and these sparkles don't get everywhere, bonus!)   Card #3 also uses a bit more of the sparkly Rainbow Glimmer Paper behind the vellum heart (some of the green this time!)  A spot of masking and you have a heap of small cute puffins! And the last card I thought would be fun to showcase the candles, if you coloured the candles in pinks I reckon it would make
