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 - Fancy Fold Card

 Hi There Creators

Today I'm showing you how to make the card that Paula (Yellow Bear Stamping) was showing off when we were together in New Zealand (couple of weeks ago in my video) see the video here: Live Video with Paula

I have no idea if it has a special name, she found it on Connie Stewarts blog (from USA), so now I'm borrowing it and changing it (as I do....)  see my measurements down the bottom.

Here is the "original style" card that I made: (click the links to see the products)

This one uses Nested Essentials Dies, Courage & Faith Stamps, and Timeless Plaid Designer Paper on a backing cardstock of Pebbled Path (I'm going to be so sad to see that colour go when the In colours retire in May!)

then in the video I (kind of) made this one: which uses Wildly Flowering Designer Paper, the same dies (Nested Essentials), and a new Stamp set: Tags of Thanks.

then I made my sideways revised version....  for this I've used the rather lovely Everyday Happiness Designer Series Paper, Spotlight on Nature Dies and the same Tags of Thanks stamp set.

I also made this one which I show in the video, but uses a retired Designer Paper, the saying is current though😊 it's from Beautiful Butterflies.

Now for the measurements:

Take your standard A5 sized card, score it in 1/2 at 10.5cm, then each of the sides in 1/2 again (easiest way is 5.25cm in from either side.)

Don't fold the side bits!

Now cut 5cm up a slit from one score line to the next, and repeat on the other side, so you have 2 parallel cut lines in the middle of card that go from the outer score line to the other outer score line. (hopefully that makes sense!, if not watch the video below)

Then you need some Designer paper, I measured it 5 3/4" x 4", and a further piece 5 3/4" x 5cm, see the video for how to cut it, as it's a bit hard to describe! (sorry)

Then you'll need something for your saying to go on I used die cuts but you don't have to

And either a full card to add to the back for the Landscape card or an A6 piece for the back for the portrait card.

I hope this inspires you to create
