I hope you have been popping over to YouTube and enjoying the videos that I have added all this week.
They started with creating your own really pretty backgrounds and then using them in various ways to make your cards.
Far more satisfying than buying papers or card especially when there are shades and colours in that pack that you will never use.
This makes far more sense and it uses any of the inks that you have too, as well as embossing powders that can sit there for years.
So here is another idea that you may like to try.
This is weaving the paper that has been cut into strips.
I used some strip dies that I have and I got mine from Amazon for a really good price point.
I have added the link at the bottom in case you wanted to look at them.
You could use your trimmer if you preferred or simply a ruler and craft knife.
The mirror card and parchment are also from Amazon and is excellent quality.
The video is not long as I try to keep them as short as I can but you will need to click the link to open a new window in YouTube to watch it.
Please leave me a comment here and on YT and subscribe and "Like" the video as that will help my channel to grow.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
