Hi everyone. I just love Angela's stencil designs, and have made this card using a clever embossing technique. Here's a short how-to so you can create a unique and striking 3D effect using your Folksy Charm collection! First, I created an 8 inch card base using one piece of A3 card. You could use two pieces of A4 card joined together if you prefer. I also cut a piece of coordinating card to 7.75 inches square to layer over the card...
Hello everyone! I hope you all love the Folksy Charm collection as much as I do...I had so much fun making the samples for the launch shows. I made this ‘Hello Dollface’ card using the new collection, and also used some of the Slot & Spin Vintage Frames dies. See below for steps on how to make this card! First, I took a sheet of turquoise-shaded card from the Ocean Mist A4 Gradients card pack, and the largest doll die from...

It's such a worrying time for everyone right now, and with the sound advice to stay at home and stay safe, I'm finding that crafting is a good distraction. It's the reason we want to continue posting and sharing crafting inspiration. We are all in this together! I've turned to making more handmade gifts this week for loved ones who are celebrating birthdays - and because, like many crafters, I have a stash of supplies and materials at home. ....
I wanted to share some different techniques using our Vintage Treasures photopolymer stamps and our gorgeous new stencils, and so I thought what better way than to pack it all into one BEAUTIFUL card design?!! The vintage style of this card was inspired by a gorgeous card that Trisha Plastow from our DT made. I loved her layers of stamping in matt brown Distress ink and the heat-embossed metallics. Plus, the angles of the keys and flourishes looked wonderful using...

We're having a fantastic time at Creativation and it's so great to meet other crafters who love paper crafts as much as we do! I wanted to create some makes for our stand that were bright and bold to reflect how positive we feel about 2020. I went with a colour palette that scared me a little at first (I think we all tend to have favourite crafting colour combos that feel safe!). Well I was definitely out of that...
Our Pretty Poinsettia Twist & Reveal die set is packed with 15 incredible dies but it also holds a secret that you wouldn't guess from looking at the dies alone . . . and it's that you can make fold out photo lockets for the flower centres! The nesting pentagon dies can be used to die-cut frames and there's a small hinge for connecting the locket pieces! Personally, I can't wait to try cutting the hinge out of mirror...
