Something Saturday - Christmas Favours Boxes

 Hi there Creators

Today I thought I'd show off these little Christmas Favours Boxes.  Rose came to class the other day with one and I forgot to take photos, but I think this is pretty similar, so cute!

The link to all the products used can be found here: Christmas Boxes products used (if you're reading this let me know if this makes it easier to see the products used, I usually put up individual links for everything but thought I'd try something new, and potentially easier!)

Anyway onto the photos.....

the front:

The lift up flap at the front

The Back

And I wanted to show off the gorgeous little "Low Profile Sparkle Dots", not sure if it really shows up as well as it could

I've just realised in all the photos you don't really see the box! That's ironic!

so here's one of the box!

Right now I can give you the measurements for the box!

Really simple:

12cm x 12cm, then score in each side by 4cm.

then cut as shown:

fold in the flaps and glue together to form the box.

I hope this inspires you to create

Something Saturday - Time for Celebration Ephemera Pack

 Hi there Creators

Today I'm showing off this Time for Celebration Mix & Match Ephemera Pack because I discovered something really cool...... They're sticky backed!  I totally recommend having your Take Your Pick tool handy for removing the backing.  Here are the links for products I've used in these cards:

Sweet Jar Bundle, Old Olive Two-Tone Cardstock, Green "Luck" card

Beautiful Butterflies stamp set,  Petal Pink Two-Tone Cardstock Peachy Hearts Celebrate Card

Simply Said Mix & Match Stamp set,  the Tools card and Disco Ball Card

I also added some Rhinestones to the ones in the first 2 photos (let's face it gotta have bling!)💎

Then I got carried away and made a heap more......  I pressed out all the images then put them into piles of things I thought would go well together (Christmas was the easiest pile 🤣)  But it's really cool that there's a bit of everything in the Ephemera.

These Christmas cards I used Jar of Joy Stamp set and the Real Red & White Adhesive backed Peppermints  for my "bling"

If you missed the video, here it is:

I hope this inspires you to create

Cards for August Classes

 Hi There Creators,

Being ultra-organised (or so it feels) and putting up the cards we'll be creating at classes in August.  If you can make it, the Laanecoorie Class will be Friday 1st at 1pm, and the Maryborough one will be Saturday 2nd at 10.30am.  Let me know if you plan to be there.  

Remember to click on the links below if you want to see the products in all their glory😃

First up is this card, Oh my goodness the Extraordinary Flora Bundle and Washi Tape are amazing! I've teamed it up with the Inspiring Imperfections bundle, and the Misty Moonlight two-tone cardstock. 

Next up using the Inspiring Imperfections bundle again, and the funny Long Time No See Stamp set, I couldn't resist creating a Genie in a bottle 🤣  teamed up with the words from Birthday Celebration Stamp set, and the Sweet Jar Builder Punch to create the lid

Card 3 uses the hilarious Not 29 Anymore Stamp set, I knew I had to have this one as soon as I saw it! Also uses the candles from the Sweet Jar Bundle (the punch used in the card above)

Last but not least this card uses the Charming Day Bundle, which I used in one of my videos not long ago, gee these dies are pretty!

And that's it folks!

I hope if you can't make it to either of the classes, that these cards inspire you to create at home.

God Bless love

Something Saturday - Triple Ripped Card

Hi there Creators

I saw a quick link thingo of a card on Facebook, and sort of noted what she did - which was really cool, so set about having a go and I have no idea if it's the same as I can't remember what it was called or who had done it, but it worked out well anyway, and now I get to share it with you🤣

So here we are......

You might recognise this one as it's one in my "card conglomerate" of Mega Class cards for 19th July (if you're keen to come to the Mega class or get it as a mail order class, you've got till 2nd July to book your spot) check out the blog post on the class here: July Mega Class

Then in the video I made up the "bones" of this card, which I've then stamped up using the Inspiring Imperfections bundle (great stamp set & dies)

For the base I've used the Misty Moonlight two-tone cardstock, it's kind of cool as it has the same colour on both sides, just one light and one darker.  I've cut this to 9" x 4" and scored at 6"

Then I've used Timeless Plaid designer series paper cut to 3" x 4" and I've used 3 different pieces of this.

Plus you'll need a 4"x6" piece of window sheet.

And then your choice of stamps.

I hope this inspires you to create.

Something Saturday - Bendy Floating Window Card

Hi there Creators, 

I saw a version of this card online pretty sure it was Lisa Curcio over in the States, I have simplified it right down (my husband says conserving cardstock and being economical) 🤣

She had used 4 pieces of A6 Cardstock to create hers, mine only uses one, plus the designer paper, embellishments and a couple of white strips for the back to write on.

Anyway here are the ones I created:

This first one uses Sweet Jar bundle (stamps & punch), also the new Regals Designer Series papers , and the Spotlight on Nature Dies (although when I cut the circle I wasn't really thinking about the fact the pretty bit is on the inside 🤦‍♀️)

The card I made in the video uses the ever so pretty Frames & Flowers Specialty Designer Series Paper, then paired up with the new Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape and matching Extraordinary flora bundle.  Oh my goodness you're going to want to get those!  I've attached the saying in the same way with a strip of matching Blueberry Bushel Cardstock

and just to kind of show you the workings of it:

Ok, so to make this card take a piece of A6 cardstock (10.5cm x 14.8cm), fold in 1/2 lengthways (at 5.25cm) 

Then take a piece of Designer paper, and cut a hole in the middle of it with a die that will allow the element you put into the middle of it to fit well, score a small margin at each side, (and if the card is quite stiff you'll need to use your bone scorer to break the fibers down a bit so it will bend easily)

Attach this down to your A6 card (only attaching the 2 margins)

you'll then need a piece to hold your element as it will need to hide behind your element you'll need to determine the size, but you need to mark the middle of it and fold the 2 ends over a little bit (1/2 cm or 1/4 " will do, attach it down using the folds , and ensuring the middle matches up with the middle of your card

As you fold your card both the designer paper and the piece to hold your mechanism will puff out, lastly add a small line of glue (or use glue dots down the centre of the mechanism piece) and add the element in place

Voila all done 😃

If that was as clear as mud, check out the video here;

I hope this inspires you to create.

God Bless Love
