Rock Star!

Hello and welcome!

You might know that I love me an action card.  I've always been fascinated by pop-ups and paper engineering and can never resist attempting to recreate a new one. So when I came across this rocking panel mechanism I had to give it a try!

I found a tutorial on YouTube (at Ankita's Craft Corner) and here's my version.   I'm really pleased with the way it came out!  

This is a card type that I will definitely be trying again, maybe in a different size .  I hope you give it a try - don't forget to let me know how you get on!

Keep crafting,

Keren

By the book...

Hello and welcome!

Well, the ol’ blog has been neglected a bit just lately!  Today’s project was a long one so I split it into three tutorials – but I didn’t want to post three blogs on the same subject!

Taking card and/or paper and making it look like something else fascinates me and over the years I’ve learned a few techniques for altering a plain bit of card.  I save all the bits of greyboard/chipboard that are used to protect Stampin’ Up! cardstock in transit so that I can upcycle them later!

Today’s faux book uses one of my favourite techniques for making “leather”.  I’ve made a playlist of the three tutorials so you can watch the process from start to end –

Don’t worry, normal service will be resumed with the next post!

See you soon,

Keep crafting,

Hello, and welcome!

A quick card today!  I love monochrome with just a pop of red- I think it's rather chic!

It's a handy way of using up some of those scraps of card that seem to multiply when nobody's looking!

I made it like this - 

This card would be good to send for any occasion and the strong colour scheme is gender-neutral.  

Till next time,

Keep Crafting,
