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...

Hi there Creators, If you order my ClassCards@Home kit this month you'll be receiving these cards to create at home, for each of these, you'll need to use your own Stamps, Inks and Glues but I'll be providing all the papers pre-cut along with instructions and videos.  Click on the link below by Friday 1st May to order and pay for your kit, I will get the kits all organised over that weekend and mail them out on Monday 4th. With Mothers day on the horizon, I thought this might be suitable with a appropriate saying, you'll be choosing a colour and saying that you have at home.  This card uses the beautiful Tasteful background dies , and the really pretty Woven Threads Sequin Assortment .  Oh and also the Stitched rectangle dies .  I've called this card "Tasteful Things" Card #2 could also be used as a Mothers Day card if you wanted to, this one uses the Tropical thinlits , and I did discover that the Label Me Fancy Punch does sit nicely on top...

How to stamp on your tags

Image
Hi Creators, I mentioned in one of the last videos that I should show you how to line up what you want to stamp on the pre-cut tags, so I've done another video for you!, it's just a short one.  It's kind of awkward sometimes getting the stamp exactly where you want it, I have used the Stamparatus to achieve this, if you don't have one trust me it's so worth the investment!  if you don't have one click on this link to check it out: Stamparatus And now for the video...... I hope it makes sense to you, if not let me know!, and if you want to see any other ways of using the stamparatus just let me know. Happy Creating God Bless love Heather xox

Class cards for March 2020

Image
Hi there Creators, honestly where do the months go to?!  Well in March I have the usual 3 classes (back to normal schedule) Wednesday 4th 10.30am in Laanecoorie, Thursday 5th 7.30pm in Laanecoorie and Saturday 7th 10am in Maryborough.  Also in March is the Picture to Page show on 14th and 15th (this is in Kangaroo flat at the Primary School) Anyway on to the cards we'll be making at the classes..... First up: this card uses the beautiful Morning Star stamp set it's one of the Distinktive stamp sets which means it has a special texture that gives added depth and dimension in a single step, creating photo-realistic images (so cool!)   I've also used the rather cute Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper teamed up with a bit of Gold foil cardstock (as the Golden Honey has gold foil accents in it)  The Golden Honey Paper is actually a Sale-a-Bration product, so you do have to spend $90 to get it for Free, (you can't just buy it singly).  Next up...
