Friday Freebie - Tropical Frame

Hi Everybody,

I have another of the Tropical Frame die sets to give away this week and it comes with the Die Cutting Essentials magazine as well

This is a  really good read that is full of ideas and inspiration for you to try.

So if you would like this offering then all you need to do is leave me a comment at the end of this post with your FULL NAME.

I say it every week ... but if you don't leave your full name then you will not be entered into the draw. So if you feel like you never win then maybe you need  to check your comments and make sure that your full name is there.  

The reason for this is because it makes it easier to find the winner, should two or even three of you, have the same first name. So please oblige and leave your name then you will be in with the chance

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

Elegant Nestables - 5x7 Rectangles + Ovals

 Hi Everybody,

Saturday the 5th November sees the launch of a brand new collection called Elegant Nestables and this is the 5x7 Rectangles.

They are being shown on The Craft Store with Lou Collins and I have sent many samples with her for you to see. 

These dies can all be used separately to create some beautiful cards and they will also work together. 

All are designed to work with all the previous box collections that have been released in the past.

I am so pleased with the delicate lacey look to this collection and I love to dress them up with flowers, ribbons and pearls.

This video will show you how I used the rectangles, and even combined it with the Ovals and I will be adding more for the other sets as I go along. 

                       
So I hope you will be able to join Lou this Saturday at 5pm and 8pm as she introduces you to the 
Elegant Nestables Collection 
from 
Card Making Magic

More tomorrow ...

More from Clever Cuts


 Hi Everybody,

Today I have been playing with the Clever Cuts Collection again and I have created two really lovely cards in more of the Silver & White.

This is such a special combination and would suit any occasion at any time of the year.

There are two cards created in the video and one is for a Wedding. 

But the other would be prefect for a winter or Christmas birthday, or even a Christmas card.

I hope you enjoy the video and all the items I have used are linked at the bottom of the page.

They are affiliate links which means if you purchase through those links I will get a small commission at not extra cost to yourself. But it does help my channel and blog to grow so it is all much appreciated.

                     
The video is not too long but yo will have time for a cuppa as you watch. 
And if you like lacey and fancy cards then this one is for you.

More tomorrow ...

Decorative Corners Collection

 Hi Everybody,

Today I am using an older die set from the
Decorative Corners Collection and teaming it with other dies and an embossing folder

This beautiful die set is the Celebration Corner and there are five other sets to choose from all of which will make beautiful cards

The video is not long, as I know many people prefer shorter ones, but I hope you will enjoy it any way, and maybe try this for your self.  

You could also turn this into a gift envelope if you wanted and I have videos on my channel that can show you how I did that. It would be perfect to put a gift card or money into for someone special.

                   
            

I have made mine in silver and white to use for a wedding but the colours could be matched to the wedding theme if needed.

And of course the back looks pretty too.

Winner

Hi Everybody,

Well guess who forgot to alter the clock and has been all out of sync this morning because of it. Ruby and I went for a walk and got wet in the rain, only to find out that if we had waited a little longer then the rain would have passed. But because of the time difference I went thinking it was getting late when it actual fact it wasn't.

Still we are home again now and dry again and I have only just done the draw for the Poinsettia from Friday. So the name today is ...

Betty McAlister

so if you would send me your postal address please to
christina@card-making-magic.com
I will get it in  the post to your straight away.

I hope you will enjoy the gift and the magazine and please be sure to let me know that you have it safely.

More tomorrow ...
