6x6 Collection - Blue & White Corner Card, Stand & Box

Hi Everybody,

This lovely blue and white creation is made using the 6x6 Collection

In this video I have tried to show you how you can make the little corner die work for you.

I am really pleased with the way this one turned out and I hope you will like it too.



The blue card is from Papermill Direct and is my favourite shade called Marine Blue, and it teams really well with bright white.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and are a mix of two shades of blue Roses, Carnations, Chrysanthemums, Tulips and white Gypsophila. You don't need many flowers to make a really pretty display and I matched them on the box too.

More tomorrow ...

Die Cutting Essentials 38 - Stained Glass Peacock

Hi Everybody,

Today I am sharing with you the free gift that is with Die Cutting Essentials 38 and this will be on sale on the 24th May.

It is a two piece die set that is from the Pretty Quick collection at Craft Stash. 

There are lots to purchase on their website but this one to start you off is FREE


It will make an impressive card for you by simply adding the die cut to glitter or designer card very easily.
Or you could try paper piecing if that was your style. 
You can snip away bits that you don't want to create another look for your designs

6x6 Collection Gold & White Card

Hi Everybody,

For today's video I have used some lovely gold card that I bought at a craft show some time ago.

I teamed it with white to make this really pretty card, stand and box.

I used the Nesting Hexagons which are part of the new 6x6 Collection and I have shown two ways in which I have used them,

The flowers, lace and the dazzler are all from Wild Orchid Crafts and I have tried to show you in detail how I would add the flowers to the card. 

But there is an older video to show you also how to get the look that you want ... Adding Flowers to your Cards

Hope it helps you in some small way

More tomorrow ...

5x7 Card and Box - Turquoise Floral Card

Hi Everybody,

Today's cards is created with the 5x7 original "Christina Collection" and the card stand from the new 6x6 sets.

But for this card I have used the card stand in a totally different way and the result is lovely.

The video will show you how I used it and if you bought the die set then this is another way to get more use from it.


The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and are a mixture of Gypsophillia, Roses, Tulips, Cherry Blossom and Asters

So I hope you enjoy the video and there is another tomorrow with the 6x6 collection.

And if you have that set then you could always add the stand as frame to that size also.

More tomorrow ...

Tonic Craft Kit 10 - Alphabet frame

Hi Everybody,

This post is a little late with this new kit as the video has been on YouTube since Monday ... but better late than never.

So this is the Alphabet Frame Kit and I have used Craft Kit 05 to make the flowers.

I did the card in two different colours and I think my favourite has to be the blue one shown here.



The kits sell out very quickly and often before the video is shown. 
So the safest way to make sure you get it is to join the subscription and have it delivered top your door each month. 

There are always beautiful dies and often stamps to match them  and always some lovely papers for you to work with ... or simply drool over !!

Along with other goodies that can help you to embellish your project ... aaaaaand a surprise gift if you subscribe.


More tomorrow ...
