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! (and just think with the new rewards system, you'll then have $13.80 to spend on your next order - make sure you've opted in!) If you watched the video you'll know that I accidentally added glue to the wrong side of my designer paper, so I ended up making this card with ...

Something Saturday - Wiper Pop-Up Cars Card

 Hi There Creators Well, I was shown a photo of one of these cards from one of my class ladies/downline the other day, and then bless her, Chris sent through the instructions for me.  Chris used the version from Dawn's Stamping Thoughts, I have "translated" it into A4 size and instructions, so this is my version (not sure if anyone else has done this too, it's not very hard!) Anyway I looked at my stamp sets, and Racing By jumped out as one that would be perfect for this!  In the video I promise the measurements, so check those out below, but first the photos..... So, this is the card closed: (oh I also used the Happy Labels Pick a Punch for the saying to go on) then you pull it open, and voila, and extra car appears and takes the lead 😃 (I'm so excited with this! lol) I then showed hubby, who said, Oh do one with the red car in front and it could be Ben's Birthday card, he has a Mazda 370 Z, which he's quite proud of (and his birthday is fast approachin...

Cards for September Classes

 Hi there Creators It's that time of the month again where I share with you the cards I'll be teaching in my classes next month. If you're interested in coming along, make sure you book your spot: Tuesday 3rd at 1.30pm, Thursday 5th at 7pm (both in Laanecoorie) and Saturday 8th at 10.30am in Maryborough.  Cost of $24 for the 4 cards. Here is the line-up...... first up using the Simply Sparkling Bundle (although not specifically using the dies in this one)  it's a nice light and friendly birthday card.   Next up, Friends for Life Bundle is used for this pretty card, love how delicate the heart die cuts are. Ooo Card #3 uses new goodies! which ironically won't be available to purchase till 6th! (I'm not sure the links will work till then either) however it uses Peaceful Season Bundle (although again I'm not using the specific dies from it) and Painted Trees 3D Embossing Folder , also a new ribbon: Shaded Spruce Satin & sheer ribbon , and the lovely Spot...
