My little corner of Blogland where I can share my creations with you. There are many video tutorials as well as links to good quality websites for all your crafting needs.
Here is a little taster of the Brand New Platinum from Spellbinders that is coming soon.... And I for one can't wait. The video will show you just some of the things that this machine can do and I will tell you more as I find out
I hope you are all having a good weekend and have lots of nice things planned to do. I will be heading off back down the motorway on Sunday as I am with you on Create and Craft at 9am Monday 20th July
There are two shows that day but the other one is later in the day. I will be featuring the Spellbinders Victorian Garden Collection and some very pretty dies. So please join me if you can as it is always nice to know that you are there.
The winner of the red card has been selected and the name drawn from the hat is you ...
Ursula
You have 48 hours in which to claim the card so please email me
christina@card-making-magic.com
with your full postal address and the card will be on its way to you straight away.
Enjoy your weekend and if you have the time please take a look at the new video I have added in Inspirations. Just click the photo to go to the page.
I have used three different sizes and some flower buds and all have been sparkled with glitter.
The centre to the bow is also from WOC and the organza ribbon is from my "Stash"
The background is embossed using two deep 3-D folders from Spellbinders called Shady Allure and Need A Rope the impression they leave in your card is lovely.
I have tried to show you the difference in these dies as some have a complete cutting edge and some of them don't.
In the tutorial I have made three cards that all look different but using the same set of dies for all
With Majestic Labels Eight I am also using the plain Labels Eight and that way I can create even more patterns for my designs. I have always advised to buy the matching sets that go with any plain label.
Also in the video I tell you that you can use the dies to simply emboss the card without cutting but it doesn't show up very well.
So this photo will give you a better idea of the effect.
Using any of the detailed dies with the plain ones will enable you to make frames of different sizes and for a fun way to use these Labels Eight dies please take a look at the video tutorial ... Elf Shoes .
Its time to go Blog hopping again with the International Ambassadors and we really hope you will join in. We are a group of designers from around the world who get together to share our creation with you once a month.
The theme this time was to make ... "Anything But A Card" ... and for my project I decorated a shop bought paper gift bag and little box
The dies that I have used are the Labels One Card Front and this is quite a large die ... but with some careful trimming it fit the front of my gift bag perfectly
I edged the bag with lace and added in a lovely satin ribbon.
I used some Spotty paper to edge the box and to create the flowers from Urban Blooms and then mixed and matched the sizes.
I added some pearly centres to each of the flowers
The label on the front of the card is Luscious Labels One and the sentiment is stamped onto Labels One and these are all designed to fit the card front die
Now you can go off round the world to visit the other Ambassadors and see what delights they have conjured up for you.
We all would love it if you left us a comment to let us know that you have visited and if you enjoy our work then why not become a follower so that you will keep up to date with each of us.
