Poppy Moments card No 3 - Video Tutorial

Hi everyone,

Well, how was your Easter weekend? I hope you managed to fun despite these very strange circumstances we find ourselves in. My weekend was dominated by taking part in 4 (yes, 4!!) blog hops.

Today I am bringing you the video tutorial for one of the cards I featured. And what I forgot to mention at the time is that this is the third card in my series using the Poppy Moments dies. But they look so different on this card than on my previous two!

Those of you who have followed me for a while, may be thinking that this card is not my usual style - and you would be right. In fact this card, as I said, was a CASE (Copy And Share Everything) from a pin on Pinterest. And the original image came from Page 5 of the Spring Summer mini catalogue. 

 

I had a request from a follower for me to help her recreate this card hence why I made it even though it took me way outside my normal comfort zone! 

So anyone who would like to do the same, you can watch my tutorial by CLICKING HERE or on the image below:

I'll be back over the next few days with video tutorials for the other cards I featured at the weekend - once I have made them that is! A busy few days for me ahead!

Please join me for those. Til then, happy crafting,

Happy Birthday card to Gez - with Perennial essence papers

Hi everyone,

Hope you are having a great day! Last Wednesday it was the birthday of my very good friend, crafting buddy and Stampin' Up! team mate, the wonderful Gez, aka Nigezza Creates.

A couple of years ago Gez made this card for me for my birthday.

I absolutely loved it - such a clean and simple little card - just my style. And a great way to use up small pieces of patterned papers that you may have left over from other projects. I also love the use of that sentiment from the Lots of Happy kit - really says it all.

Anyway, for Gez's birthday card this year I decided to CASE her card (which means either "Copy and Share Everything" or "Copy and Selectively Edit"). 

Here is the card I sent Gez. I deliberately used Blackberry Bliss as I know that that is one of Gez's favourite colours from our range. And I also used the Perennial Essences Designer Series Paper as again I know this is one of Gez's favourites. I have to make a little confession here - I forgot to photograph the card before I sent it off - so the photo above is very kindly courtesy of Gez. I love the way she has used the same patterned paper as the background!

The Perennial essence has so many colours in it that is is possible to match it up with a whole load of our card stock colours. I decided to experiment with another couple of colour schemes. 

For this one I used one of the darker papers with Bermuda Bay card stock and ink.

And then on the video, I made this one using one of the more pastel papers and Balmy Blue card stock and ink. 

So many possibilities with this card layout. And so easy to make. See just how easy in my video tutorial by CLICKING HERE or on the image below. 

Just in case you would like to make a similar card, the measurements for my little squares of patterned paper are 5cm square, with a 5.5cm mat of card stock. In Imperial that is 2" with a mat of 2 1/4". The central panel uses the second smallest stitched square from the Stitched Shapes die set, which measures 4.1cm square, or 1 5/8". The mat for that one is 4.6cm or 1 7/8".

Hope you like this project. And I really hope Gez liked her card and had a wonderful birthday!
