Something Saturday - Origami Envelopes

Image
 Hi There Creators, Guess what? it's that time of the week again for Something Saturday!😃 This week I happened to be scrolling through Facebook and came across this origami envelope quick video, so I have deciphered the video (you know how they do it and it's so fast!) And I've worked out if you do it with 12x12" cardstock you get an envelope worthy of a card, and a 6x6" piece gives you a gift card sized envelope. Here they are: then I'll try and explain how to make them...... This first one is made using one of the 12x12" pieces of  Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and this smaller one uses one of the 6x6" pieces of Full of Life Designer Series Paper Now, how to create these envelopes: take your square piece of designer cardstock, and fold in 1/2 diagonally Open it up and fold one side in to the middle: then fold as shown: open up the bottom flap and fold in the sides fold up the bottom tuck the point bit inside the envelope (you might want t...

Something Saturday - Stage Window Card

 Hi There Creators, The Zoo Crew Suite , just lends itself so perfectly to a stage setting that I just had to create an easy window card to show you. Here's the first one I made before the video: these images have been cut out from the Designer Series Paper, some of the dies do match the images, but these ones are fussy cut. then in the video I start on making this one, and this is how it turns out.  I was thinking it would make a great Christmas Card, if I can find a saying with words from a Christmas Carol for it.  I loved the idea of having double curtains, let's face it most stages have extra curtaining behind the main first curtain, if I made it again I realised that I should have positioned the 2nd curtains upstage a bit, so you see the bottom of them - ah well trial and error! Lol in the video I wonder what the sausage looking pieces are for, and then on reviewing the video I realised they could be tree decorations, I've just had another epiphany - curtain tie back...

Cards for May classes

 Hi there Creators It's that time again, where I show off next months class cards.  The class dates are Wednesday 3rd May 10.30am in Laanecoorie, Thursday 4th at 7pm in Laanecoorie, then Saturday 6th at 10.30am in Maryborough.  New Catalogues should be with everyone by now, if you don't have one and want one, get in touch! Just a heads up that this month will still be $20 for the 4 cards, however due to rising costs I do need to increase my prices, and I'll be increasing by $1 per card - so $24 for the 4 cards.  Here goes..... First up I've used the new Zoo Crew (that will be available from 2nd May) to create this cute card Then after showing a friend how to use these Give it a Whirl Dies the other day I figured we should do this in class too (they're so much fun!)  I've teamed it up with Alphabest and Waves of Inspiration so the wheel says U R Totally Awesome, as it goes round Back to new stuff again, and this time the gorgeous Cheerful Daisies Stamp set (it...
