This is a simple card to make but is very effective. Fracture cards are created using the tearing technique. I tore both the Basic White and coloured cardstock together so I could mat and layer them. You could emboss both the coloured and white cardstock if you wanted.

Measurements

  • Coastal Cabana / Moody Mauve Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half.
  • Basic White / Petal Pink / Coastal Cabana Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm.
  • Flowering Meadow / Unbound Beauty designer series paper (DSP) – 14.35cm X 10cm.

Charming Duck Pond – How to Make an Easy Scene Card – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

As we near the end of the annual catalogue I go through my stamp shelves and see what stamps I’ve used and which have hardly seen ink. The Charming Duck Pond bundle is one which I’ve only used a couple of times.

I wanted to use it again before it perhaps retires. This card is CASED from the annual catalogue. What is casing you may ask. Case means to copy and share everything. There is nothing wrong with casing an idea from the catalogue but do give credit to your source idea.

measurements

  • Pebbled Path Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half.
  • Basic White Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm

Arch Shaped Shaker Card Tutorial – How to Make It.

Arch Shaped Shaker Card Tutorial – How to Make It. – Everyday Arches Dies – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

Do you like shaker cards? I’m always looking for new ways to include shakers in my cardmaking. It can be fun to make different shaped cards. They engage the recipient and are enjoyable to make.

Tips

I do have a few tips to share. Firstly remove the backing to the foam strips before you apply. This makes the strips more malleable and easy to shape. Secondly, ensure you enclose your shaker window with foam strips and have no gaps. Thirdly once you have closed up your shaker give the adhesive a good press with your bone folder to ensure good adhesion.

Isn’t this picnic basket cute? I’ve made it a few times before. Today, I decided to make it into an Easter Basket. It features the Floral Delight designer series paper (DSP). This paper is bright floral and happy. Perfect for Easter.

The basket has a flap on either end, the centre is secured to the base. It is easy to make. I would advise you to create a template of the box such as the one below to help you understand how it fits together.

If there ever was a cheerful card, this is it. I love the bright, happy colours. The colour palette was inspired by the Floral Delight designer series paper (DSP) used in the background. The daisies are from the appropriately named Cheerful Daisies stamp and die bundle. I know I’ve mentioned this before. My grandmother always had a yellow daisy bush in her garden, hence I’ve always loved daisies.
