Something Saturday - Bendy Floating Window Card

Image
Hi there Creators,  I saw a version of this card online pretty sure it was Lisa Curcio over in the States, I have simplified it right down (my husband says conserving cardstock and being economical) 🤣 She had used 4 pieces of A6 Cardstock to create hers, mine only uses one, plus the designer paper, embellishments and a couple of white strips for the back to write on. Anyway here are the ones I created: This first one uses Sweet Jar bundle  (stamps & punch), also the new Regals Designer Series papers , and the Spotlight on Nature Dies (although when I cut the circle I wasn't really thinking about the fact the pretty bit is on the inside 🤦‍♀️) The card I made in the video uses the ever so pretty Frames & Flowers Specialty Designer Series Paper, then paired up with the new Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape and matching Extraordinary flora bundle .  Oh my goodness you're going to want to get those!  I've attached the saying in the same way with a strip of matchi...

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 ...
