Happy 2014 everyone!!! Up on the blog today is a HUGE card tutorial to kick off the new year, so grab a cup of coffee and have a seat. For the base of the card, I used Bazzill Kraft cardstock cut 9 1/8 x 5 3/4 and scored down the center. Then I used 140lb cold press watercolor paper for my snowflake background paper. Cut your watercolor paper 4 1/4 x 5 1/2, then sandwich between the Tim Holtz Snow Flurries Texture Tread and run through your Vagabond or Big Shot. What you end up with is a wonderful deep emboss of a snowflake pattern for your background. Now you're going to take 3 different blues and lightly swipe on color only to the raised surface of the snowflakes, using an ink blending tool. I used Broken China, Stormy Sky and Faded Jean Distress Ink. This is where we really use a lot of water on the paper. Take a wide water brush filled with water, I'm using the Tim Holtz 1/2" flat tip water brush. Brush the entire watercolor paper surface with the water brush, once everything is wet you will see the ink start to blend. Now take your heat tool and dry the watercolor paper until completely dry. Now we are going to stamp on top of the embossed snowflakes to add another dimension to the background. I used Pumice Stone Distress Ink and Tim Holtz's Mini Holidays 4 #CMS142 music from the set. I also shaded edges of watercolor paper and snowflakes with brown distress ink (Walnut Stain). I also took this opportunity to sew a border as well. Diecut a pair of ice skates out of grungeboard using the Tim Holtz Ice Skate die and a Vagabond or Big Shot. Then paint the grungeboard with brown, white and silver paint. I used Picket Fence, Walnut Stain and Brushed Pewter Distress Paint. Let air dry. Now you are going to take the sanding grip/sandpaper and sand off some of the color you just painted. It's going to expose some of that grungeboard, to give it a distressed look. Then shade around some of the edges of the skates with a brown ink and blending tool, I used Walnut Stain Distress Ink. After doing that, you will lace the skates with cording of your choice. I used waxed linen cord, you can find it at your local craft store in the jewelry isle. Here's a tip for you,I used a doll threading needle to sew laces on (it's much faster and it's what I had on hand). You can find them at your local craft or sewing store. Using the Tim Holtz Festive Greenery die cut 2 swirls & a pine twig out of Bazzill Kraft cardstock and 2 holly leaves & a pine twig out of watercolor paper. On a non stick craft sheet smear 2 blue inks, I used Stormy Sky & Faded Jeans Distress Ink. Using a fine detailed water brush, pick up some ink and paint onto leaves and twig lightly. Heat to dry with heat tool. It's really hard to see in the photo, but all the snowflakes, holly and pine twig was coated with Clear Rock Candy Distress Glitter. I adhered the glitter with glossy accents, it has a fine tip nozzle that is just perfect for the job. Now let air dry, this might take a while. Here's a close up! Now you are ready to assemble! You are going to need a good strong glue for this, I like Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive, but you use what you like best. Layer everything as seen in 1st photo. The finishing touch is a hand dyed ribbon and a couple of pearl baubles. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and have fun with the techniques. Thanks for looking.
Hi guys, today I am showcasing my quilt card using the Damask Motifs. There is another colour way that I did this card in and I will post it at the end of the tutorial for you. Start with this die template which is from the new Damask Motifs from Spellbinders. Cut 16 of these pieces, 8 from a neutral colour (I'm using white) and 4 from a light tone and 4 from a dark tone colour. You can cut these quicker if you do two at a time. There is no need to emboss these so it will save a bit of time there too. Next step is to cut squares the same size. If you use a square die, your finished piece will fit together better than if you cut the squares on a guillotine. If there are any bits of the points that extend past the edge of the square, nip them off with your scissors. Glue each Damask piece to the matching square. You can change the look of your quilt by making the backing square a different colour too. Next, you need to cut all the coloured squares in half and four of the white squares. You will need to leave four white squares uncut. Next you will need to cut a piece of square card that is slightly larger than your four squares across. I use tape for this step to get the positioning right. The four squares will be the four corner pieces. If you want to be exact with this you canuse a ruler and mark it, but I find it is easy to place the squares in each corner then use the cut white pieces to get the spacing. They need to be layed out in this pattern. The edges should touch each other as it forms the perimeter of the pattern. You should be able to adjust the corners if need be if you haven't used glue on them. Once you get the pattern straight you can go back and glue the pieces down Next go in and place the coloured halves in from the outside edge. You will alternate colours as you go around. You can see that the colours will continue to make the original sqaue shapes with the white pieces. Continue to add your colours, this time placing the colours in the opposite directions to make the pinwheel shape for the centre. These have only been layed in place for the picture. Your lines should meet up seamlessly. Adding the last remaining pieces will complete the pattern for your quilt card. I added a sentimenrt on mine that was cut from the Persian die templates. Here you can see the same card done in a second colour way. This card shows the sentiment cut from the Persian die templates The card to the left is exactly the same card except without the Damask Motif piece attached to the squares. This card, once assembled using the above instructions, was run through the new Spellbinder Embossibility folder called Patchwork to give the card texture. It is a nice alternative to the first card but yields similar results. All for now, Sue x

Hi Everybody, This cute card is ideal and is so easy to make and in the video we will create our own template to be saved and used over and over again. It is all hand cut and there is not a die cut in sight ... so anybody can make it easily. If you have lots of invites to baby showers to make then this would be ideal ... or as a card to welcome a new baby into the world. Every part of this card to the left is hand cut and the video takes you step by step through it all so you can get the look you want. I hope you enjoy it and the finished card will fit into standard size envelope so no extra postage costs either. More tomorrow ... Hugs xx
Several people have asked me how I made my Envelope Card this week for Heartfelt Creations So I thought I would do a quick tutorial. Please bear with me its very picture heavy ! Take a 12" x 12" piece of double sided paper. This sheet is from the Posy Patch Paper Pad Fold in half horizontally and open flat. Fold in half vertically and open flat. There should now be a cross folded on the paper. Fold each corner to the centre of the paper. This is what it looks like when all corners are folded. Turn the paper over so the triangle flaps are on the back Now fold in half vertically. Bring the bottom upwards. Your paper should look like this. Bring the back flap up and glue the body of the rectangle of the card together. Now glue the two flaps together. Fold the flap over to form the front of the envelope card. The back looks like this, a pocket. You can if you wish cut another piece of paper and adhere over this or leave it as it is and decorate! That's basically it, all you need to do now is decorate it ! To add the ribbon adhere in the centre over the back and up onto the front flap. Leave lots of ribbon to tie in a bow at the base of the card. As a reminder here is the front of the one I made previously and here is the back ......... For the inner I used some card fronts from a Heartfelt Creations paper pad and adhered them onto white card. That way you can write your message on it. Have fun making one ! If you want to make the flowers check out my tutorial here. Happy Crafting !
I had a couple requests for instructions on my little teepee card shown in the CTD challenge, so here you go! I'll post the directions first, then the picture! It's rather long but it goes quickly! Again, thanks to Sue Selfridge, my fellow Rubber Dubber, for her demonstration of this card. Start by cutting 3 squares of cardstock; in this example, I have cut these 4" so when it is unassembled, it will still fit into an envelope. Score each square diagonally. This is the time to stamp your pieces if you like: Lay one piece diagonally on your work surface, right side down. The crease should be going up & down (vertically). Lay the next piece on top, (as shown), again right side face down. Make sure the edges fit next to the folds snugly; you don't want them right on top of each other, but next to each other so they can be folded easily. Adhere the piece down, making sure you don't put adhesive on the areas that will be exposed on the other side! Now, flip the whole thing over, and adhere the other square the same way, but with the right side facing out. Again, make sure you don't put adhesive on the exposed areas! Now fold your card together to see how it fits: Now, if you just wanted to display your card, you add your decorations and adhere everything together! But if you want to mail your card, you will need to make a little slit for the outer corner to fit into. This way it can be unfolded to go into the envelope. I just marked two pencil marks on either side of the overlapping panel when it was in place. Obviously, I have moved the panel so you can see the marks. I then cut a slit with my craft blade. You could also just use your cutting blade or a pair of scissors. Now, you can tuck the corner of the panel into the slit. Just make sure if you decorate this panel, do not glue down the top layer of cardstock at this corner; it makes it a bit too thick to try to get into the slit. Just tuck the bottom layer under. Now to make a smaller layer for decorating, I cut another square 1/4" less than my original square. So I have cut this square 3 3/4". Then I cut it in half diagonally: On the diagonal side that you just cut, measure down to 3 3/4". I made a mark--you can see it next to the arrow. Now cut across the cardstock, from the left corner (shown at bottom center of photo), to the mark. This will give you a panel to layer. If you want three panels, you can do the other half, then you'll have to cut a second square and repeat the steps. So here is my finished card: I hope this was helpful! I can't wait to see what you come up with! I would like to add some ribbon, but can't quite figure out how to do that, so if anyone has some ideas, let me know! TFL!
