Collettes Cards

Hi Papercrafters. I have had lots of requests to make the Pull Card and show you how to do it on a video ..... so I have😄. The Petite Jardin 12x12 Paper Pad was a perfect paper choice, gorgeous colours and lots of small designs! This is an easy and impressive card to add to your card making portfolio and it will definitely have that surprise factor many of us look for. The papers were so pretty I ended up making three! You can see pics of two of them here, the third is on the video.  Here are some more pics to wet your appetite! I made one a few months ago for a special friend and popped lots of mini photos on. It was such a hit!   Finally here is the Link to the VIDEO , or click the picture below, sit back and enjoy and then play! https://youtu.be/TUnmXXl2pKc Couture Creations Products Used: CO725413 - 12x12 Paper Pad CO723973 - Paper Trimmer C0724574 - Applicator Bottle ULT200031 Cardstock Cypress Pine ...

'Jardin' Exploding Card! Hi Papercrafters. 😊 The 'Petite Jardin' Collection from Couture Creations is pretty and easy to use for all your papercrafting projects. An eclectic mix of florals, stripes, geometric designs both in soft and strong colourways. The range has beautiful papers, dies, hotfoil stamps, chipboard and stamps, and really, choosing is the hardest part! I was drawn to the beautiful border, flourish and branches dies;  these dies I could use on most cards, totally drop dead gorgeous!  I wanted a card with a little surprise inside so I worked out the measurement for an exploding insert following one of my favourite Tea Bag fold Designs.  It works beautifully!  You can see exactly how I made this in the video I have put together for you 😉  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6rL3cA312I I do hope you get a chance to create this little fun card and to shop for some beautiful pro...

Happy 2018 my papercrafting friends! May all your dreams come true! To kick the year off I have made a video especially for you on the easy yet wonderful ... Multi Step Card! I have had so much fun playing with the Ritz Collection, have you seen it? It is full of neutral backgrounds and has amazing foils, panels, borders and die cuts. I must confess I have a few of the 12" and 6" paper pads in my stash .... it's just so easy to use and I love that! I have been making these multi step cards for years and my family and friends love them; so I thought I would share with you lovely peeps!  It is quite a simple and quick card to make and I am sure it will become a favourite card foundation! So go grab a cuppa and take 13 minutes or so to watch my video, I do hope you can find the time!

Hi papercrafters! I was super excited to get into the second round for the Kaisercraft Design Team for 2027/2018. I was sent the stunning Lilac Whispers collection to create an entry. As always with Kaisercraft the papers are stunning, all I needed to do was to create something special. It's been crazy around my household and business so time was limited, but I decided I would create a Four Fold Card with Pop Out Cube. Despite time pressures, I wanted to create something special and the pop out cube always gets a 'WOW' and the four fold card would showcase the stunning paper. I love junk mail; so often there is inspiration and a few years ago a retail company sent me a pop out cube ...... I loved it! I played, adapted and re-sized to create a version great for cardmaking and have taught it in many classes. It is ALWAYS so well received! So again I played with the size so I could incorporate it into my Four Fold Card. I really hope you li...

It’s my sons birthday soon and I wanted to make him a ‘special’ card – one that could incorporate photos and that would be interactive. I chose the ‘Never Ending Card’ which I re-sized . It is such a great card! You could put so many more photos on it and turn it into a fun unconventional mini album. Think Christmas…..family overseas, send them a Never Ending Card with lots of your family pics! Here is the front of the card… This is the first turn….(isn’t he adorable!). This is the second turn….. and the third and final turn, the next turn takes you back to the beginning! Such clever fun! I hope you are inspired to make one, to help I have made a special u-tube video….just for you to make it real easy!
