Same as one we made at club a few weeks ago but changed the papers.

Notebook



Plain kraft notebook from Wilko. I've seen a good price for these on Hobbycraft website but you need to buy ten at a time (£13.50)

Papers from Graphic 45. I punched a couple of holes in one layer and threaded ribbon through to make a pencil holder.

Card Box




This is meant to be a box to hold half a dozen or so cards. I made the box but haven't got round to making the cards yet...

Patterned paper is Graphic 45. The measurements for the box are from a great video tutorial on this blog by Teri Pocock.

Fancy Fold



This was a card fold I kept seeing on Pinterest.

I didn't realise until after I'd cut and glued every panel that it doesn't actually stand up! So annoying, when I went back and looked at Pinterest I realised all the photographs I'd seen were taken with the card laid flat.





I don't see the point of cards that you can't display so I added some card layers to the inside so it balanced the weight out, card now stands up.

Sunkissed






This was a card we made a few weeks ago at the club.
We used Graphic 45 "Sunkissed" papers and ephemera cards












Each card was different in some way, although we all used the same folds and pockets.

Delicate Wings



Butterfly dies are a set by Crafter's Companion called 'Delicate Wings'
I added a very light touch of ink and some fine glitter
Sentiment die from AE, cut twice and shadowed.




Card is A5 sized but with the fold at the left, I really must try and buy more of these, much prefer them to tent-fold for this size.

Easter Chick



I received some amazing birthday cards recently and I'll be sharing them here in the next few posts.

This one is from the very talented Coleen. Not only did she make the card, but also the cute little chick, in fact she made one for all the ladies at our club.  Mine laid a chocolate egg yesterday :)

Graphic 45






A pop-up card using my own measurements. That's quite good going for me, normally I let someone else do the hard work and copy from Pinterest or YouTube!





All papers are by Graphic 45.
