How to Construct a Fold Flat Bag

How to Construct a Fold Flat Bag – Dandy Designs – Flowers of Friendship – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

This little bag folds flat for easy storage. We made this in a recent card club and I wanted to share it with you as well. I used the Dandy Designs designer series paper (DSP) that I got free during sale-a-bration. I love the bright and vibrant colours in this paper pack. You get 48 sheets in a pack so you won’t run out anytime soon.

Welcome to this Focus Friday project. Today we are looking at using dies to create your own stencils. I used the Basic Border dies to make this stencil. I then used my blending brush to create this lovely border on the card. Above you can see the Melon Mambo version and below is the Bermuda Bay one. Which do you like best?

I’ve made this style of gift box before. This time I’ve changed it up a totally different colour combo. I love this style and I really think it looks super cute. The Sweet Talk designer series paper (DSP) used here is classified as Valentine’s paper but I think it can be used for any occasion. Hearts are not just for Valentine but for any day of the year.

I love making boxes or bags that fold flat. It makes them so much easier to store. It’s the paper though that really sings to me here. This is the Flowering Fields designer series paper (DSP). I love it!! Tulips are my favourite flower and oh my this paper is just tulip heaven for me. #

How to Use Debossing on Your Cards – Focus Friday

Welcome to another Focus Friday blog and video. Today we are focusing on debossing. When you emboss there are always two sides to each design, the front that is embossed and the back that is debossed. We are using that reverse side here today. This is the Dotty Hearts embossing folder. It is a mini one and is perfect for creating a panel on a card as I’ve done here.
