POP OUT WINDOW CARD


Hi and thanks for taking the time to read my blog .
I wanted to share the cards I created during my Facebook Live last night . I saw a video by Jen McGuire here and was inspired to give this card style a try .
This card style is so versatile as you will see in My Facebook Live video here and you will have all the instructions apart from the measurements which I will now share.
I used a standard sized card base which is Au A4 cut in half and this was perfect for the sizes Jen gave us .
The sizes I used for the inserts are
5 1/4 x 3 inches scored at 3/4 , 1 1/2 and 4 1/2 inches
1/2 x 4 1/4 inches scored at 3/4 , 2 3/4 and 3 1/2 inches
5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches scored at 3/4 , 4 and 4 3/4 inches
This is my favourite of all the cards I created and I couldn't wait to share how I did the reverse stamping and die cutting as well as my first time using the kissing technique. I used it to stamp the floral image from Very Vintage onto both tea pot and tea cup ! A shout out to Sandra Mastello for the idea of stamping the floral image onto the die cuts ! This was just what I was looking for because I love Wedgwood style tea cups ! I will add the supplies used for the two cards created in my video  . I hope you enjoy my video and I hope you will have a try at creating some of these cards as they are so much fun !

BIRTHDAY CHEER


Hi everyone and thanks for visiting my blog . I am afraid I am running way behind on my blog posts but am playing catch up !
On 3 rd February I shared some cards I had created using the Birthday Cheer bundle . Here they are !

These first two cards are created using the gorgeous How Sweet It is  DSP as well as the party hat image from the stamp set .





These next three have used various different DSP . You can see how changing the DSP changes the look of the card and how much fun is my Christmas card ?






Next up , a very simple card which uses the die only !



For this card I cut out small pieces of different coloured card stock ! Warning - a LOT of patience was required to complete this card ! The end result made it worth the effort though !



 I decided to try colouring the white space using my blends for this next card - much easier and the result ? Can you tell these two cards apart ?



I hope you enjoyed seeing what I came up with in creating these cards and if you'd like to see more , please visit my business Facebook page here  https://www.facebook.com/278277128965967/videos/2281834088718455/
