I Believe in Santa

For something different this Christmas, I have created a tri-fold card. 

Not only a lovely card to give this season, but can also be used as a table decoration piece.

Red, green and glitter gold ribbons cut and adhered at an angle completely cover and form the front of the card.

Embellishments from Meg's Garden, including gold leaves, a beautiful fabric flower and a Cut & Create sentiment to finish.

Inside is more ribbon, this time a gathered panel for effect and texture. 

Another beautiful Christmas image from the new Christmas Cut & Create papers features in the centre.

Keeping with traditional colours, I embellished with coordinating green and gold leaves and glitter flowers.

These items, and so much more, can be found in Meg's Garden, for a truly handmade Christmas!

Folded in Love

Hi Everyone,

Today I am sharing another special card, something a little different.

Using a standard sized card as the base, I have added a tri-fold piece to the front, creating not only a lovely visual, but more area to decorate using the new Spring Flowers Collection.

Each level has the beautiful pastel papers, then I decorated with the Cut & Create Ephemera sheets, which are the perfect size and style for this card.

For texture, I used lace and ribbon, and embellished with flowers and leaves. A few spots of bling, and the card is done! There is still plenty of room for a greeting or sentiment, I have also used papers from this collection inside the card, ready to be written on.

I could not finish without using my new favourite piece from the Spring Flowers Collection... the magnificent Butterfly Transparencies! Aren't they gorgeous?!

Happy Crafting!

Cards With Different Folds

Hello everyone! I hope that you are well. Today I am sharing two cards that I have made using papers from the Sherlock III collection, Lavande and the Vintage Flower Journal Cards. Just for a change, I have created cards with different folds, and embellished them in a vintage/shabby chic style.

For my first card, I decided that I would make and accordian fold card.

 It is secured with a band, that can can open and close. The two ends slightly overlap and are secured with velcro dots.

The base of my card is kraft cardstock. I used both Sherlock III and Lavande papers to decorate the panels of the card.

The centre image is a Vintage Floral Journal Card.

After securing it to the card, I scored it so that it could lift up. You can stamp/write your message here. 

My second card is a square lace tri-fold card. The base is kraft cardstock and I have used the Sherlock III papers.

Again, it is secured into place using a band and velcro dots. This is the inside view of the card.

The back view of the card.

 For both cards, I used Lori Whitlock cut files which I then used on Silhouette Cameo machine.
