Something Saturday - Christmas Favours Boxes

Image
  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 togethe...

Thankyou card and Tag Card for July

Image
Hi There! Thought I'd share with you the thankyou card and tag that you can make up into a card that I'll be sending out this month to everyone who orders from me.  I was making these as I was on my Stand at Craft Alive in Wodonga, here I am! so I was little limited to what I'd taken with me, which in this case was the Brights and Neutrals Stampin' Write Markers, and some of the new matching Brights ink pads. I'd seen so many beautiful cards made with both these stamp sets, so I succumbed! lol This one uses the Tropical Chic Bundle , Oh wow it's so gorgeous!  I just love the way it cuts out the fronds from the card, and leaves it intact.  And Oh isn't the flower so beautiful?  I've inked it up with 2 of the Stampin' Write markers, then used a dauber to blend the colours together.  I've used the same technique with the leaves, and 3 greens, effective isn't it?  If you want to see it "in the flesh" just make sure you place an ...

Subtle Embossing Folder

Hi Everyone, I've had a couple of questions about the new Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder , Oh there's a mouthful and 1/2!  I'll just call it the Subtle embossing folder from now on...lol The photos in the catalogue and online are very uninspiring!  however if you like texture, you're going to love this, to make it show up in photos, I inked up the folder with a bit of Crumb Cake ink , so you can actually see it. I inked up both sides so I could check both out, as it does look different on each side (subtle'y different - oh I know *groan*) So then I thought I'd better make something with it too to show it off, pretty much anything that would look nice with a bit of texture would look good with this I reckon! I've teamed it up with the Tropical Chic bundle , and I'm so pleased with the way it turned out, I even got a "that's not bad, I don't mind it" from the hubbie! (high praise lol) What do you t...
