Something Saturday - Click Clack Concertina Card

Image
 Hi there Creators Well I was sitting last night wondering what to do for my Something Saturday, and playing around with a bit of paper, ended up designing this card, I've made similar cards before like the cascade cards, this is probably a bit more basic, but I'm happy with it and it's way simpler to create, but still packs a cool Woah factor🤣  I've used Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper which is on the last chance list. I decided it needed a sentiment so picked out this one from Sweetest Star Stamp set (last chance list again), because it has 6 words (1 for each panel!😃) and these Adhesive backed Snowflake Assortment are also on the last chance list and happen to be reduced to 1/2 price (woo hoo!) Ok, onto measurements.... You'll need a sheet of A4 for the base card, score it at 9.9cm either end, then cut in 1/2 at 10.5cm, fold so each piece is concertina'd into 1/3rd's then each folded piece needs a cut that goes 1/2 way up the card (in the...

Something Saturday - Rainbow shaker glitter card

Image
 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...

Easy Shaker Card with tutorial

Image
 Hi there Creators, Thought I could inspire you (and give me a break from home-schooling) with an Easy Shaker Card (with video tutorial), I've always had a spot of bother with shaker cards where the shaker'y bits stick to the glue round the outside and then don't move at all (not a good look for a shaker card lol).  So with this in mind I've tended to steer away from them, however.... bless them Stampin' Up! have bought out Shaker frames , and a couple of cute stamp sets to go with them!  The stamp sets are: Still Scenes and Zoo Globe , and the dies that match are called Snow Globe Scenes dies (click on the links to check them out!) Whilst I haven't used the "proper" stamp sets with these cards, I have made cards with them in the past, I've found a photo of one of them, using the Zoo Globe, the lady I made it for is keen on Giraffes, don't think I've shared it before as I didn't want to spoil the surprise! However that card was not qui...
