Vicky here today and I thought I share with you a quick tutorial on how I made a rocker card using adorable "Henry on rocking horse"...

and here are the items I used..

Henry on Rocking Horse

Nested Flowers 1 dies

Leaves Trio

Go-Kreate & Spellbinders Circle & Scallop Circle Dies

Pearls

And here is how I made it...

1} Cut out 2 Scalloped Circles..one large and a smaller sized one as shown.

2} Score the large scalloped circle down the centre as shown.

3} Fold in half...now you have the base of the rocker card.

4} The smaller scallop is then glued into place as shown.

Top Tip 

 

I always decorate the two pieces of the card first before I glue together using foam pads for a little more dimension...

and here are the Copics I used to colour adorable Henry..

and here is my finished card..

A Shaped Double Tag Card

 

Hi you lovely ones :-) Karin her today and

 I`m going to share with you a tutorial how to make a Double Tag Card who`s shaped :-)

First of all a material list:

•  Stamps: WOJ digi stamp - Diver Henry and  WOJ text stamps - Magical Whises
• Aquarelle paper, Craft cardstock and double sided patterned paper.
• Die Lights WOJ - Chevron, Notbook Border, Arrows and Speech Bubbles.
•  Spellbinders dies and Martha Stewart punch and score board.
•  Coloring and Ink: Distress Ink Reinkers, Distress Ink and Archival Ink.
• Gold Embossing Powder, Buttons, ribbon and twine.

To make the card, I start making a circle with a diameter of 10 inches using
a double pattern paper.
Then fold the card as seen below :-)

 Unfold the paper and cut flaps along the last fold edge.

Glue the card as shown on the picture below.
I`ve aged the edges with Distress Ink - Vintage Photo before I glued the card together.

 The card is finished. Just the Tag`s to make :-)

 Here is my card and tags finished decorating :-)

 

I hope I`ve inspired you with this Tutorial and have fun playing :-)

I found the inspiration for this card here!

HourGlass Shaped Card

Hi, this is Karin sharing a tutorial

about how to make a HourGlass Shaped Card.

First of all a material list for this 

shaped Card:

•  Stamps: WOJ - Simply Maja - Thorny Greetings and  WOJ text stamps - English Sentiments
• Aquarelle paper
• Craft cardstock and pattern paper
• Dies: WOJ and Spellbinders
• WOJ Box of Charms - All for the Girls
•  Coloring and Ink: Distress Ink Reinkers, Distress Ink and Archival Ink.
• Sparkle from Ranger, pearls and silk ribbon.

 Below you have the template to print and cut out with the measures for: 

the card, green cardstock and pattern paper.

 Of course you also can make it any bigger or smaller. 

Here you see the cards rear and front, and how you fastened the ribbon

so you can tie the card. All sides of the card are decorated.

I`ve also cut out a template for the green cardstock and pattern paper.

All the edges are aged with Distress Ink - Vintage Photo.

With this technique, I think the card look a little softer :-)

So it looks when the ribbon is attached.

The rear and front are finished decorating :-)

The inside of the card with the text:

Good Friends are the real treasure of life!

I hope I`ve inspired you with this Tutorial and have fun playing :-)

Criss Cross Card

Hello everyone, Karina here. I don't have a new tutorial for you today. But want to lead you to a wonderful video tutorial our dear Jeanette made a while ago, showing how to make a Criss Cross Pocket Card. I loved to look at it and to see how she makes it and felt very inspired to create a Criss Cross Card as well. I love this kind of cards.

A close up of the image...

And here you can see how the inside looks like...

For my card I used this sweet image 'Cookies for Santa' available as a Digi Stamp. The German sentiment is from Whiff of Joy as well, and so is the star festoon die.

Wish you a wonderful day now!

Hugs, Karina

Paperbag Card

Hello and good morning everyone. Karina here today. And I want to show you how to make an amazing card with a simple paper bag. The bag I used is in the size of 21.5 x 12.3 cm. First I thought they are quite small, but in the meanwhile I love this size. They give a great format of the card.

Fold it like on the photo below, and let's begin to decorate each page of the paper bag...

Here you can see the closed card and the front... I used one of the sweet new image from Whiff of Joy 'Cute Snowman'. Be careful to add the ribbon to close the card before you glue the front panel to the card. I coloured the sweet snowman with Distress Inks.

 Here you can see the inside... Glue the two edges of the paperbag ground down to give a tag a better hold.

 The tag is a die from Whiff of Joy as well. And so is the lantern.

And here you can see the backside of the paperbag card, decorated with the gorgeous snowflake dies from Whiff of Joy. Be careful here as well to glue the ribbon before you add the back panel to the paper bag.

Yep, and we have a hidden panel as well, who is hidden in the paper bag. Add a strap at the one side of the panel to get it out of the bag. I decorated the hidden panel with ticket sentiments, those and the matching dies are available at Whiff of Joy.

I hope you liked my tutorial and I was able to inspire you. If you have any questions just feel free to ask. I LOVE to make those cards. They are so much fun to create and are great to use your scraps. Look out; it's danger to get addicted :o)

Have a wonderful day now and thank you for looking!
Hugs, Karina
