Something Saturday - Click Clack Concertina Card

 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...

Embossing folders 3D & Standard

Image
 Hi There Creators,  I had a request to do an Embossing folders video, so that's what this weeks video is all about.  They can be a little confusing as they come in small, medium and large, Standard and 3D.  And how do you know how to get them through your machine so they actually work? Stampin' Up! has 2 Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machines, the mini and the standard.  The Standard one is a similar size to the Bigshot (I find it has a tad more room for the plate, the Bigshot used to shave bits off my plates if I didn't have them lined up exactly, I haven't noticed that with the Cut & Emboss machine) Anyway, as you'll see from this picture our embossing folders come in a thin (small) size, which would emboss around 2/3 of your card front, a Medium size, which completely embosses your A6 card front and also a "large" which is 6" x6" sized (handy if you want the pattern on an angle!)   An important tip is to make sure the fold of the embossin...

Global Design Project #GDP260

 Hi there Creators, well I've been getting the emails from the GDP team, and I keep intending to join in again, so I figured it's at a zero number (260) I should re-start! Plus a new stamp set Gnome for the Holidays arrived that I've been waiting for! Here is the inspiration from GDP, the idea is to "CASE"= Copy and selectively edit So although my card looks nothing like Su's card, I noticed that she has used 2 embossing folders in the background, the middle one creating a sort of gap. So here is my entry, whilst I didn't use 2 embossing folders I did use one twice lol!  and my aim was to create the gap in between, with the rectangular middle piece and the saying I wanted the leaves from the Meadow Moments Embossing folder , to show through a bit, so that the rectangle wasn't so "harsh" on the card and covering over so much of the pretty border, therefore I chose to use vellum to stamp on.  I used Stazon Black to stamp, then coloured in with ...
