A few weeks ago I happened to be online at just the right time to see a demonstration by Ronda Wade on how to create a fun, tri-fold card. I love the simple design of this project! For my tri-fold card (which fits a C6 Envelope), the card base is 12" x 6", then scored at 1-3/4", 4-3/4", and 7-3/4". The Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper is perfect for the card base as the hand-painted designs are printed on heavy-weight sheets. Here's the front of the card, stamped with gorgeous images from the Love What You Do stamp set...

Florals are definitely the theme of this sweet thank you card. You can see them in the background from the Lovely Floral embossing folder, the stamping on the card base, and the hand painted designs in the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper. Speaking of the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper, the colours I've chosen for this sweet thank you card were pulled from paper: Mint Macaron, Old Olive and Tranquil Tide...

Happy Mother's Day

Earlier this week I shared how to create a glamorous focal point for a paper crafting project using the Black Ice Technique. Here's two more ideas, this feminine one is stunning with Copper Foil, and stamped using the Perennial Birthday stamp set...

ANZAC Day commemorates our brave soldiers killed in war and honouring returned servicemen and women. Although today marks a solemn occasion and taking time to remember the sacrifice of others, I also feel fortunate to have a day off work to spend time with my family. I hope you too have a lovely day planned; perhaps you could bake ANZAC biscuits... here's Annabel Langbein's ANZAC Biscuit Recipe to get you started - enjoy!
