3x3 cards and gift box using stampin up products

This is my first video in a very long time.  I left Stampin Up, got really busy at work and couldn't find the time to make and upload videos.  But then I decided to rejoin when I saw the amazing joining offer with Sale-A-Bration 2017.



I took inspiration from the Oh Happy Day card kit to make this set of 3x3 cards with a matching box.

Quick Mini Album Tutorial

I wanted to make a mini album that was not only quick but economical. I also wanted it to have lots of pockets and places for photos, journaling and memories. I am pleased with the result.



To make this you need:

6 sheets of A4 cardstock or 3 sheets of 12x12 cardstock

4 sheets or 12x12 patterned paper



For the mini album:

Sheet 1 = 11 1/4 x 8 1/4 (width of A4)

Sheet 2 = 10 3/4 x 8 1/4

Sheet 3 = 1- 1/4 x 8 1/4



Each sheet is scored on the long side at 5 inches - rotate 180* and score again at 5 inches

Each sheet is scored on the short side at 2 inches - this will form the pockets



For the Mats for the pages:

12 pages - 6 x 4 3/4

6 pockets - 1 3/4 x 4 3/4



For the tags:

6 tags - 15 cm x 10.5 cm



For mats:

6 mats - 14.5cm x 10 cm



6 tag tops using what ever punch you have.



Scrap left overs for embellishing tags



Took less than an hour to make :-)

Project life storage

I wanted a desk top storage system for project life. One that would hold the colours/cards/photos/embellishments for the page I was working on. I have loads of little shipping boxes from Stampin Up! Deliveries and they are really strong boxes so thought I could do something with them. The 6x4 cards fit just snugly in them as well - unfortunately two 3x4 cards sit side by side with a divider but I managed anyway. 

I used the flaps for the dividers and secured them with extra card stock that I made 'L' shaped tabs with and stuck one side to divider and one to box.

Then covered in pretty paper - edged with washy tape and painted Mod Podge all over.

I really like how it's turned out :-)

Stampin Up! Butterfly card tutorial

I made this card the other day after work - I was really exhausted as I'd been up since 3am and wanted to make sure I didn't go to bed! I used a standard C6 card blank - I cut the 3 panels from a piece of card stock measuring 13cm x 9.5cm - I cut 3 even rectangles (well as each was 4.3333cm it was hard to make them identical) - I could have made it slightly taller than 13cm then it would have been easier to accurately measure but as I wanted 0.5cm around all sides this worked.



I used the Stampin Up! in colours, butterfly stamp and punch - very easy to make and very effective - even my 17 year old son thought them pretty and wants to send them to his friends on their birthdays!



If you would like to buy any of the products to make this card or any of my other cards then head over to my store.  Right now there is a half price clearance sale as a new catalogue is due out soon.  Go pick up a bargain!

Stampin Up! Bloom & Hope Card

I have been suffering for about 6 weeks now with my Rheumatoid Arthritis :-(

To help me forget and also as gentle exercise for my hands I have made lots of cards.  I even sold some which is very exciting!

Of the cards I have made while poorly this is my favourite - hope you like it too x
