Floating diamonds (class)

 This week we are making a floating diamond card. The size is easy to adapt...each panel is half the width of the depth of the card. 

I think it would make a good mother's day card too. The main thing to remember is that the picture on the left ends up at the front when the card is folded.

David's birthday

 Here's the card that I made for my son in law's birthday...he's a bit of a cricket fan. 



A few for the May fair

 Here's just a few of the cards that I made for the community fair in May...





Seems to have been a busy month!

Corner fold ( class)

 This week's sample is a corner fold card  (instructions on Pinterest)

It was good to use a D.S.P. ( double sided paper)  as a card base for a change and one of the stamps I've been wanting to use for ages. The topper is a bit bigger than the one in the original design but I don't feel it looks any worse for it. 

I'm planning to make more of these in the future!

Tea bag class

 This week we all made tea bag folding cards.


The one on the right is made up of 16 pieces. What we realised was, how important it was to be absolutely accurate! It made a change and created a nice effect though.

A block pop up card (class)

 I wanted to make something different this week and found this style of card on the net. Added a few little mice taking tea to ring the changes...

It folds down flat to fit in an envelope.

Easter 2025

 I don't usually make many cards for Easter but wanted to turn these dies into daffodils! 

I thought putting them on an egg shaped just finished it off.
