A card-making and papercrafting video blog
Hi All! I thought it was about time for an owl card. I can’t believe I ever doubted buying this punch! Did you notice I added a subject in the top menu called “Owls & Animals”? All of my owl cards show up in this list. This card was actually really simple to make. The card base is 5 1/2″ x 12″. I scored it at 2″, 4″, 8″, and 10″, so the final folded card is 5 1/2″ x {Read More}
Hi All! The holidays wouldn’t be complete without making a Christmas card with my owl punch! I did the same owl Santa from last year, but then I added a couple of reindeer. I saw this card fold in my Paper Crafts magazine and thought it would be perfect with the owls. I love it because it also opens up like a regular card so you can write on the inside. Today is the last day of the Stampin’ Up! {Read More}
Hi All! I felt like it was about time to break out my owl punch again for something fun. I can’t believe I ever doubted buying this punch! The recipient of the card twists the owl so that it fits within the rectangular box and opens the card. The turning mechanism is really quite simple – a brad between two glued owls. I also used a new product from the Stampin’ Up! holiday catalog called “Core’dinations” cardstock. The inside of {Read More}
Hi All, A few weeks ago, one of my YouTube subscribers asked me to do a tutorial on a flip card. I actually created an extra fold in my version of a flip card to make it more interesting. I also found out that Sizzix has a flip-it die that will do all the cutting and scoring for you (not my version – the standard “flip-it” version). That’s very convenient, but then you’re limited to whatever shape you purchased. With {Read More}
Hi All! Surprise – it’s Thursday! I seriously cannot believe I am posting another video. I should be wrapping presents, cutting orange slices for my daughter’s Christmas party, preparing for my other daughter’s birthday party this weekend… but alas, here I am with my addiction! Aren’t these reindeer just so adorable?? When I put them into the little herd to take a picture, I couldn’t help but laugh – they look so funny! I am having a dinner party for {Read More}
UPDATE: I forgot to tell you about the cute stamp I used on the back of the card. It is from a site called Cat’s Life Press. Happy Day-Before-Thanksgiving! Last week, I was in line at my grocery store and they had these cute cards where something gets pulled out of a pocket as you open the card. They were pretty elaborate… for example, you open the card and Santa comes out of a chimney. Another one was shaped like {Read More}
Hi All! First, I want to address my comment last week about CASE’ing my cards. I didn’t mean to upset anyone. I got a lot of emails from people worried that they were offending me. I probably shouldn’t have made a big announcement for just a few people who are doing the wrong thing. So, I’m sorry!! I really do appreciate the support that you give me – I love all the comments and emails I receive. So, keep them {Read More}
