Easy Zig-Zag-Card {VIDEO}

Hello everybody,

Birka here :-) I have a little video for you with an very easy card-folding-technique.

But first I'll show you some pictures ;-)













I loove interactive cards, or cards with a little difference, but the most of these cards are not so easy and take more time than other cards. So then came this very easy folding-idea in my mind ;-)






Here you can watch my video in english





Hier ist das Video in Deutsch

For Everything You Do Card

Hi there!
Samantha here today, and I have to say...I'm totally LOVING this card today!

 
     

Just because I'm the only one I know who doesn't like coffee...doesn't mean I don't like pretty things! Ha!! I can't wait to brighten someone's day with this fun card!


Let's make this card together!

- stamp and color your image (I used lots of images from lots of sets! Ha!) I colored everything in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers
- fussy cut out and set aside


- on your card front, stamp the leaves image three times at different angles in a light grey ink and then splatter with white acrylic paint!
- it doesn't matter if the stamped leaves overlap, because your main image will go over top

- arrange your flowers/leaves around the coffee cup in your desired look
- heat emboss the sentiment in white onto a strip of black cardstock and then attach


This would the PERFECT card to include a gift card in for a friend or teacher!


Ok, for such a 'small' focal point area on this card, I used a bunch of stamps!! Ha! I used Botanical Love, Coffee First, In Bloom, Magic Flowers, Time to Say Thanks and the Clustered Leaves cling stamp! Whew!

    

So exciting...next week is release week!!! Be sure to stick around to see all of the NEW goodies and inspiration!

More flowers......

Well the vacation is over and the school starts again so we are back in bussiness and creating. So here is another card I would like to share with you.

 
 



I don't know about you but I really love all those flowerstamps. They are so versatile you can color them, emboss them, use watercolor or simply stamp them onto your project. Here I used white embossingpowder on vellum and copic colored the flowers.




I used a horizontal cardbase and cut a panel out of whitw cardstock slightly smaller then the cardbase.
I used a stencil for my background embossing and also a pierced oval die. I diecut a smaller pierced ovaldie and adhered it to the panel after I randomly stamped some flowerimages. I stamped the flowers on vellum using watermark ink and white heatembossed them. I colored the flowers with copic markers and adhered them to the panel.
Stamped the sentiment onto a white banner and to finish of the card I placed some Pearls in the hearts of the flowers.






Stamps;

Botanical Love, In Bloom and Lights on.



Cool cuts (dies)

Stacked pierced ovals;



Stencil;

Hexagon web.









Try to combine the different flower stampsets and you'll be surprised how versatile they are.
You can also incorporate sentiments from other sets and you will have a very different card.
About the different stencils try to use them in another way you can easily use them to emboss your papers. You first have to experiment a little to figure out which sandwich you have to use for the different diecut machines and which effect you will get and like.
If you use copics to color your embossed vellum flowers Always color at the backside of your images otherwise you will ruin your copics.







Please visit the create a smile stamps shop if you haven't done already to see all those lovely new stampsets for the month august and as Always we love to see what you create.

Have a great creative week;
Hugs Anja
