Our next CraftAlong session is coming up Saturday 28th January - here's what you will need.

 

Hello friends! 

Today I've been busy getting ready for my CraftAlong event next weekend and I wanted to share the supplies you will need to have on hand if you would like to actually Craft Along.  The session is completely free and I know you will love it! Of course you are welcome to just watch or chat, if you prefer. But if you are planning to create along with me, then I have put together a list below of recommended supplies. 

We will be Crafting together at 2pm (Sydney Time) next Saturday 28th January. Pop it in your diary now! You will find the video here: 

This month we are making Diorama Cards! We will make a sample card in the live session, and then if you wish there will be other Diorama project tutorials available after the live session. 

For this live session I will be using the Greatest Journey stamps and dies, plus we will also use the gorgeous co-ordinating "Enjoy the Journey" paper pack. But dont worry if you dont have these things as I will give you alternative ideas to complete your Diorama card. Importantly, you will then have the measurements and knowledge to make more of this type of card if you would like to make more.  For me, Diorama cards are one of my favourite types of cards, and I know you will enjoy them too!

In the live video we will be using the following items - if you need to substitute other items that is completely fine! Please note I will be working with 2 different colour options. In the live video we will work with the Garden Green/Coastal Cabana option, but it will also work with the Starry Sky/Highland Heather option. 

• Greatest Journey bundle (if you dont have the Greatest Journey set you can substitute with other stamps and a sentiment of your choice)
• Enjoy the Journey dsp
• Stitched Rectangle dies (any nested dies will work)
• Shimmer paper (I used Gold or Fresh Freesia on mine)
• Starry Sky cardstock (or Garden Green)
• Highland Heather cardstcok (or Coastal Cabana)
• Basic Black cardstock
• Basic White cardstock
• Starry Sky ink (or Garden Green)
• Label die or punch of choice (I used the banners from the Stylish Shapes dies)

Optional: if you wish you can heat emboss the sentiment on the Basic Black cardstock in White or silver.

I will also show an alternative background for those that don't have the paper and prefer to create their own background.  For this you will need Blending Brushes and inks to match your project. 

You will need adhesives, a trimmer and scissors as usual.  For this type of "box card" I prefer to use "Tear and Tape" as my preferred adhesive for the box construction.  I will also be using dimensionals. 

I have included a list of products below should you wish to purchase any of these items. 

I am really excited to see you all live next Saturday and hope you will join me!
