Trellis Weaving

Hi Everybody,

This pretty card has used the Petals Trellis Insert from the 
Card Making Magic - "Christina Collection"

For this one I have added some yellow ribbon through the slots and it creates a look that is different for your own cards.

It is easy to do and the effect can be quite luxurious
depending on the ribbon or thread that you use.

In the video   Trellis Inserts    I have shown you four examples weaving the ribbon in various directions.

I have altered the colours too so that each one looks unique

Layered Butterflies - Card Making Magic

Hi Everybody,


I love the look of butterflies and I like to add this effect to my cards from time to time.

And so this creation was born using my new dies from Card Making Magic

I am really so excited about this collection and I have been playing with it so much since it arrived.

There is so much that I want I want to show you, and so many things that can be done with this whole collection and  I have lots of videos to be done.

This first lovely card is created in the video Rainbow Butteflies and it is another that is easy to re-create 

Each part of the collection can work individually but they all work so well together and will help you to make cards for all genders, age groups, seasons and occasions

The "Christina Collection" is available exclusively with  Craft Stash  and if you are an existing customer and you add the code WOWCMM10 then you will get a 10% discount at the checkout

The second video is creating a more masculine theme but still with the same butterfly dies and stamps.

We have a card and matching bow with silver embossing powder and the effect is much better in the hand than the video or photographs show.

I hope that these are something you will have a try at re-producing for your self and have fun in the process
