Something Saturday - Brightest Birthday Kit

Image
  Hi there Creators Today we're checking out one of the new kits, I have to say WOW!, maybe it's the holographic blingy bits (ooooo bling....🤣)  if you're a regular reader of my blog or watch my YouTube or Facebook channels then you'll know I can't resist bling.  Anyway check out the kit here: Brightest Birthday Kit And here are the cards it makes.... oh and their matching (also blingy) envelopes. Then you'll notice on the first card with the balloons it has a box that has the holographic outline, which is actually a sticker, so in the video I show you how to get the sticker off and onto a separate piece of card without having to pick it off and re-piece it yourself. And this is the card I made with it:  I probably should have used the same Azure Afternoon colour, but I had this piece of Shy Shamrock hanging around my desk, so chose to use that instead, and seeing as the star stamp hadn't been used I figured I should put it into action.  Its not a bad littl...

Something Saturday - Trifold Tools Card

Image
 Hi There Creators, I had this fabulous idea of how I could have the tools cut out from a card, and sticking up, until I tried it and discovered it didn't work 🤣  Then I had another fabulous idea, so let me know what you think..... I've used the Trusty Tools Stamp set and matching Trusty Tools Dies .  Which I'm happy to say have carried over from last year's catalogue, such a handy "blokey" set! (and of course some of us females are also tool nuts 🤣) Here is the card I ended up making in the video: I have added some of the Take to the Sky designer series paper to the background of it, and I'm really happy with the way it turned out And in this last shot you can see the "shadow" effect of the tools on the back.  I have cut the tools 1/2 out from the card, then added the layer of tools (stamped) on top, then added a layer of gray under the cut away to create the shadow. I ended up preferring it as a triangle fold rather than an up and over, whic...

Something Saturday - Take to the Sky

Image
 Hi there Creators, Well, this week the video wasn't the longest, partly because I couldn't make up my mind how to finish off the card I am using the Take to the Sky Designer Series Paper (DSP for short).  Partly as I don't yet own the stamp & die set "Adventurous Sky" which is happily in the the sale this month (there's 10% extra off stamp & die bundles till the end of June and also on the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machines)😁check out this link for all the bargains:  10% off Sale    So here we go....... This is the card I was playing with, I ended up changing the base card colour to Copper Clay which comes out in the airplanes, I've used the Unbounded Love stamp set to go with this card (and actually all the cards in this post!) The next card I made up I used the Everyday Details Dies to create the frame piece, the cool thing with this is that it creates an inside frame as well as an outside frame (ie the holes are on both sides of the die c...
