Dress Up Framelits
Dress Up Framelits. I love a challenge, and being Monday, it’s always a slow wake-up call from the weekend. Yesterday, I went to a small local craft show and saw a very clever and talented designer who was introducing her new range of circular fold cards. I honestly thought this would be a quick copycat […]
Magic slider card with Dinoroar
I made this magic slider card with Dinoroar stamp set for my friend’s grandson’s birthday out of a 12″ x 12″ piece of card stock. As it stands, the dinosaur is in black and white without any colour. When you pull the tab, the magic happens. By the way, the aperture was cut from the […]

Love You Much Demo – Inspiring Inkin’ Quarterly Team Meeting
My upline, Amanda had seen a Christmas card I made using this fancy fold which has a surprise when you open it. I was honoured when she asked if I could demonstrate how to make it at her Inspiring Inkin’ Quarterly Team Meeting today. The stamp set I chose is “Love You Much”, just in […]
Sparkly & Bright
This was a card I did for one of my workshops last month. It looks quite ordinary but reveals a surprise. I call it the “magic” proscenium card. Like a proscenium or stage, when you open the Gate fold, the “curtains” draw back and reveals the star of the show. The “Close to Cocoa” tabs […]
