Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Perfect Panels & Lovely Layers Circle Card

Hi Everybody,

This pretty card is created with pone of my favourite collections and I love the results that I get every time I use any of the shapes that are available.

This one has several layers all created with foam tape and then tiny gemstones dotted around the edge.

It could be for any occasion and used at any time of year, and will surely help you to get your MoJo back on track.

The video will show you how I created this one and it is easy to do. Just be sure to look very carefully at your dies and where the cutting edges are placed.

More tomorrow ...

Winner

 Hi Everybody,

Thank you so much if you joined me for the “LIVE” Craftalong on Wednesday and apart from the hiccup at the start when I couldn’t get the camera to point down to the desk, I think the rest of it  went quite well.

I recognised many names that where there but because I also couldn’t get my iPad to connect I couldn’t answer any of the questions or comments that you made. I have since been back in to the page and done what I could. So thank you again if you joined me.

The sun is shining here today but I know some parts of the country have been badly flooded with the latest storm. I feel so sorry for you and I hope you have managed to get a .title but straighter now the storm has passed. It must be dreadful for you especially with the pandemic as well.

I have now done the draw for yesterday’s offering of the magazine with the scoreboard and the winner is 

Maria Muller

Would you email me your postal address please to 

christina@card-making-magic.com

and I will get it in the post to you as soon as I can. Please let me know that you have it safely and I hope you put it to good use.

More tomorrow...

Friday Freebie - Scoreboard & Bone Folder

Hi Everybody,

So todays offering is a really useful piece of equipment that most card makers use on a daily basis.

I don't make a  card without using my Scoreboard as it gives me neat lines to fold my cards and eliminates any cracking on the spine, and there is a bone folder in the pack as well.

It also helps me to create different shapes and in the magazine you will find some hints and tips on how to use it to get these card shapes or your self.

If you would like this then all you have to do is leave me a comment at the end of this post with your FULL NAME and be sure to come back and see if it is your name that is listed  as the winner over the weekend.

I cannot stress enough that if you do not leave your full name then your comment will NOT be added into the draw

More tomorrow ...
