Whenever I add something new to these pages .. be it a video or a supplier for the items or the dies that I use then it will be underlined and this indicates that it is a link that you can click.
Plus I will add the same link to the Video Tutorials section that is in the title bar at the top of the page and that way you will always be able to find it in the future
Many of you seemed to like the Spellbinders Pop Up Box that I added a few days ago but I know that many of you live in places where you cannot get the die or it is too expensive to shipI didn't think that you should miss out on such a popular box card that everybody seems to be making right now.
And so I have made a Video Tutorial for this Pop Up Box and I haven't used any dies at all. (Please click the links to go to either of the pages for the Tutorials)
What I have done though is fill it full of flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and wrapped it with beautiful lace from the same company.
The little baby bib that I have used at the top of the box is from Mei Flower but there are many more baby items on their website
Now if you don't stuff yours as full as I have then you may be able to get it into an envelope ... but I have no chance with mine !!
There is another video that will show you how to create a bigger box to put this one into and it makes a really special gift and can be for any occasion and I will add that tomorrow.
So Happy Crafting and I know that you will like the gifts that you are going to make.
Please remember ...
You now have three places to visit for ideas or tutorials ... Video Tutorials at the top ... Tuesday Tutorials in the sidebar to the right ... and Inspiration at the top left of the pages.
More tomorrow ...

ReplyDeleteI have watched and enjoyed your video. I have been making this type of card for a long time having first come across them as a project using my Hougie board and they are always admired and loved by the recipients. So far the range of cards has included 21sts,18ths new babies, weddings special birthdays, and I am often commissioned for these cards the latest being for a wedding anniversary.
Have you seen the YouTube video that uses the box base and fills it with sweets on lolly sticks which when completed looks like bunch of edible flowers. I copied the idea for a chocoholic friend who was well impressed.
Sorry this comment has gotten rather long
Live your videos
