Welcome to our October CraftAlong projects - Criss-Cross Cards!

 

Hello friends and welcome to the October CraftAlong!  This month our theme is "Criss-Cross cards" - which means I have lots of fun folds for you to make this month.  I know you will love them!

You can see our main project shown above... but that doesn't really look like a Criss-Cross card does it?  That's because there is a hidden Criss-Cross pocket inside!  

You can watch the video by clicking on the YouTube link below:

This month I also have 4 alternate card designs for you and you can purchase these tutorials with the purchase link below:

I've used some new products on a couple of these too!  

If you placed an order of $60 or more with me in September you would have received a Supply pack to make up the main project as shown in the above video. But you can also purchase these tutorials by using the PayPal button below - the cost for all tutorials is $15aud and includes a step by step video for each card, PLUS measurements in both Metric and Imperial. If you are unable to use the below link please contact me HERE and we will work out something else!  You can purchase the tutorials no matter where in the world you might be located.

PURCHASE NOW

Thanks for watching my video this month and I hope you love the cards!

Video Tutorial: The Northern Lights Technique!

 

In this week's Technique Tuesday video we played with a favourite technique of mine... the Northern Lights technique. This is a super fun and easy technique that anyone can do... you just need some ink colours, cardstock and blending tools such as brushes or sponges. (I've added a product list at the bottom of this post).

I made a video to show you the easy way to get started with this technique... so if you were thinking you would like to give it a go, then you might enjoy this video tutorial below:

Here are a couple more of the cards from the video:

I really hope you enjoy these cards, and have a go at this beautiful technique yourself! And if you do try it, let me know how it went! 

Enjoy

August CraftAlong is coming up this week!

 

Can you believe its that time again???

Each month I do my "CraftAlong Event" - where I make a fabulous project with a theme and you can watch the video (its free) and choose to make the project with me or perhaps just watch and enjoy. 

This month my theme is "Panel Cards" - and there are so many different types of cards that fit this theme. I will be live for you to watch at 2pm (Sydney time) this Thursday 29th August, 2024. 

Below is the link to click at 2pm on the 29th:

If you placed an order over $60 with me in July, you are one of those receiving a Supply Pack in the mail from me. Supply packs have now been sent so watch you mail box in the next couple of days.  Of course if you have ordered $60 or more with me this month (August) you will receive the Supply Pack for the September CraftAlong next month. 

Alternatively if you wish to prepare supplies to make the project yourself I have listed the basics below, and added a few measurements to get you set up.  Please note you can substitute with any products you have on hand. For example, my card uses the beautiful "Winter Meadow" DSP, but you can choose something similar if you wish.  I used the Greeting of the Season for my sentiment but any similar sized sentiment could be used.  To purchase any of the products I used you can click the images below. 

Im looking forward to creating this project with you, and hope you will love it.
