Something Saturday - Click Clack Concertina Card

Image
 Hi there Creators Well I was sitting last night wondering what to do for my Something Saturday, and playing around with a bit of paper, ended up designing this card, I've made similar cards before like the cascade cards, this is probably a bit more basic, but I'm happy with it and it's way simpler to create, but still packs a cool Woah factor🤣  I've used Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper which is on the last chance list. I decided it needed a sentiment so picked out this one from Sweetest Star Stamp set (last chance list again), because it has 6 words (1 for each panel!😃) and these Adhesive backed Snowflake Assortment are also on the last chance list and happen to be reduced to 1/2 price (woo hoo!) Ok, onto measurements.... You'll need a sheet of A4 for the base card, score it at 9.9cm either end, then cut in 1/2 at 10.5cm, fold so each piece is concertina'd into 1/3rd's then each folded piece needs a cut that goes 1/2 way up the card (in the...

Something Saturday - Ripped Cards

Image
 Hi there Creators, today I was mulling over what it would look like if rather than curling the ends like I did to create the scroll cards, I just ripped the cardstock, I rather like the effect and *bonus* you get 2 cards out of one ripping session 🤣 (and let's face it there's a certain satisfaction gained from ripping paper! lol) Ok so the first 2 cards I'd made before the video, I had ripped kind of "triangles" out.  You'll need 2 pieces of Designer Paper (probably with a smallish pattern would be best), and you attach the ripped off pieces to one and the remainder to the other: The first card shows the piece that I ripped the bits out of, and the second is the ripped out pieces. I used designer paper and white cardstock that measured 9.5cm x 13.8cm that way I could add a mat if I wanted to of 10cm x 14.3cm (which I did in the second lot of cards)  I've gone with using the beautiful Hues of Happiness Designer Papers , and my "go to" sayings st...
