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 - Easy Pop Up Card

Image
 Hi there Creators Today I'm showing off a card that one of my friends (and downline) Lee-Allan sent me which is an easy pop up card (very easy) 😃 she has taken it from Lynn Dunn (Easy Inside Pop Up Card) I've used the lovely Storybook Moments Specialty Designer Series Paper, which is so darned cute, but I haven't been able to work out how best to use it, so I'm thrilled that this works! I also used the Tiny Bee trinkets on the card, perfect for a little bit of embellishment I then got a bit carried away and made another card.... I borrowed a saying from You are Remarkable Stamp set for this one, and cut a slit in the wheelbarrow for the little rabbit with the radish to sit in. Now for the measurements: You'll need a card cut from A4 cardstock, so it's lengthways, ie 10.5cm across and scored at 14.8cm Then a piece of 6"x6" Designer Series Paper (DSP),  cut a piece off for the front 5.8cm, then trim off some from the end to make it 14.3cm long The ot...

Something Saturday - Wiper Pop-Up Cars Card

Image
 Hi There Creators Well, I was shown a photo of one of these cards from one of my class ladies/downline the other day, and then bless her, Chris sent through the instructions for me.  Chris used the version from Dawn's Stamping Thoughts, I have "translated" it into A4 size and instructions, so this is my version (not sure if anyone else has done this too, it's not very hard!) Anyway I looked at my stamp sets, and Racing By jumped out as one that would be perfect for this!  In the video I promise the measurements, so check those out below, but first the photos..... So, this is the card closed: (oh I also used the Happy Labels Pick a Punch for the saying to go on) then you pull it open, and voila, and extra car appears and takes the lead 😃 (I'm so excited with this! lol) I then showed hubby, who said, Oh do one with the red car in front and it could be Ben's Birthday card, he has a Mazda 370 Z, which he's quite proud of (and his birthday is fast approachin...
