Friday Freebie - Creative Corners

Hi Everybody,

This is a die set that I had fun playing with as it can make so many lovely backgrounds for you.

The card that I made here was done on parchment and then coloured with pencils and the effects is really lovely

Creative Corners  is the video to show you what I did and it may be something that you want to try for yourself.

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

You have 72 hours then in which to claim the prize and I have no way to chase you up. If you don't come back it will be offered again at a later date.

More tomorrow ...

Die Cutting Essentials 53 - My Little Memory Book

Hi Everybody,

Today I am sharing with you Die Cutting Essentials 53 which is going to be on sale tomorrow 20th June.

The gift this month is My Little Memory Book and that is what it will help you to make.

The picture shows one that I have done and although not very big you can add as many pages to it with the die as you would like.

In the video I show you how I created a card using the same set of dies and I have turned mine into a birthday card.



There is also a stamp set that will work well with this die set and it is the gift with 
Creative Stamping 73 that will be on sale on the 4th July.

The stamp set is called "Let's Make Plans" and so together with the booklet you can add dates, Months and lots of other sentiments to customise your book

More tomorrow ...

Lacey Ribbons Set 1

Hi Everybody,

This pretty card in pale green and pink has been created with one of the Lacey Ribbons added multiple times along the bottom

I also alternated the colours to make the top one stand out more and I matched the shape of the top edge too.

I think it looks really fresh. 

The white ribbon wrapped around the layers has two flowers attached to the top and they are from the Flowers & Tags set and the Layered Florals stamp set

The flowers have been coloured with pencils and added to the front with foam pads

White pearls have been dotted about the card as a finishing touch and I am really happy with the look of this one.

Create a Gift Envelope

Hi Everybody,

Here is a little envelope that is a far nicer way to give money than just handing it over.

The video will show you how I made this one in a blue and white colour scheme and then decorated it with Flowers, Ribbons and Pearls

It is very easy to do and the film will take you step by step through the process



The links are all at the bottom of the page so that you can see what I have used. Some of them are affiliate links which means I get a small payment for items that you buy at no extra cost to you.

Enjoy the video ... it's not long.

More tomorrow ...
