Let's Use Every Bit!

 

It's always good to use every scrap of paper when crafting, don't you think? Recently I watched my friend Julia Quinn make an off-centre Gate Fold card and decided to try it too. 


It can be made with the larger side on the left or the right, depending on how you cut your patterned paper. I used Meandering Meadow DSP, a 6" X 6" paper with scenery, so there was a definite way this paper needed to be cut.


It then occurred to me that the off-cut piece of DSP would make another card quite easily. This is the result, where only a narrow piece of designer series paper has been used along with card cut with Border Basics dies.

A sentiment from Garden Meadow has been used on a label from Nested Essentials dies.





Your orders are very much appreciated, no matter how small or big, every little bit helps me to meet my minimums, and keep on creating. Hopefully you are inspired by some of the projects I share and want to make your own. My online shop is open anytime.

Color Challenge


Sometimes when I need inspiration I look for a challenge. This week I spotted a colour challenge set by Connie Stewart at Simply Simple Stamping. She is a Stampin' Up! demonstrator in USA.


These colours are very pleasing anyway so it suited me to try using them with Birds Eye View which has been my 'go to' stamp this week.


This bird is probably my favourite, I like colouring the striped wing. I also pulled a few stamps from Sentimental Park and Charming Sentiments to fill out the card front.


Radiating Stitches dies are a stand-alone online exclusive, which just means you won't find them in a catalogue, but they can be viewed in the online store. They cut the Basic White piece I've stamped on, plus the heart. The Banner is from the newly released Nested Essential dies, which you will find on page 165 of the Annual Catalogue. You can browse my shop and place an order there or contact me to order if you prefer.
