Welcome to the Ink.Stamp.Share Showcase Blog Hop!

Better late then never - here are my True Love DSP fancy fold cards! You'll find the measurements and tutorial towards the end of this post.
I made these cards about 2 months ago but I held off sharing them as I wanted to film a tutorial and knew I had some time off work so I filmed the tutorial over the Easter weekend, more than a month ago! I can't believe it's taken me this long to get the tutorial edited and ready to share.
I enjoyed creating the Twist & Pop Fold card a few weeks so much that I have created some more but this time I have filmed a tutorial!
It also gave me another excuse to use the Peony Garden DSP for one last time (I promise!)
If you haven't made one of these before I would encourage you to give it a try. It's such a fun fold and perfect for when you need that extra special WOW card.
I created the Petal Pink one for my grandmother (who lives in Holland), it was her birthday was a few days ago.
Welcome to the Ink.Stamp.Share Blog Hop!
I'm thrilled to be blog hopping with this talented bunch of papercrafters and demonstrators again - Merry Christmas everyone!
If you have just arrived from Donna's blog and you are visiting my blog for the first time - hello and welcome! My name is Kim and I live in Somerset in the UK.

My Christmas Organiser holds a bunch of gift tags, a shopping list and a printable Christmas card list (not pictured) and doubles up as a decorative item, which can be displayed as well as being pratical.
Understandably, I am unable to share with you today how I created this project as it was designed for those who paid to attend Michelle Lasts Pinkies Retreat.
It is entirely my own design. It was my intention to create a unique make and take, that could be adapted for different themes and occasions and created with a variety of patterned paper and coordinating Stampin' Up! products, without needing a specific stamp set. It was an absolute joy to see some of the 114 attendees create my project and make it their own!
A 1/4 pack of the Feels Like Frost DSP was included in the make and take kit along with everything else required to make this project. The patterned paper provided was enough to make both of my make and takes - the second project being my Special Occasion Wreath, which I have already shared on my blog. If you missed this, you can check it out here
To create my Christmas Organiser I used the beautiful Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper, Wishes and Wonder Bundle and Snow Globe Scene dies.
In real life, the white and silver design looks beautiful but unfortunately it's incredibly difficult to capture exactly how it looks photography.
I did share some videos on my Instagram Story - click here to watch my short videos from the weekend of the #PinkiesRetreat2020
Understandably, I am unable to share with you today how I created this project as it was designed for those who paid to attend Michelle Lasts Pinkies Retreat.
But that does not mean you can't learn how to make it! I will be offering blog subscribers and customers the option to purchase a video tutorial. There will also be 6 kits available on a first come first served basis and at least 2 completed Christmas Organisers to purchase too!
Carry on reading for more information!
Christmas is only a few weeks away but for several reasons,
I haven't been able to finish editing my tutorial in time.
A tutorial filmed exclusively for blog subscribers or customers
will be listed on my blog under tutorials and
available for you to purchase this year, or next!
Once you have seen the structure, you may choose to
adapt it for another theme or occasion.
It would be perfect to hold note cards and envelopes
or perhaps your Christmas keepsakes and memories?
If you would you like to either.....
a) learn how to make this Christmas Organiser
b) receive a kit with everything you need to make the Christmas Organiser OR
c) purchase a completed Christmas Organiser

Retreat Swaps - Wishes & Wonder Shadow Box Card Tutorial
Wednesday, November 25, 2020 United Kingdom
I was thrilled that Michelle invited me back as a designer. The best thing about being a designer is seeing how everyone interprets your idea and makes it their own, it's truly wonderful to see the ideas and creativity flowing.
I created 2 make and take projects for the retreat which I have shared on Instagram and Facebook.
You can use the hashtags #PinkiesRetreat2020 and #PinkiesTeam to see pictures shared from this event!
Today I am sharing with you the last of 3 swaps I created for this event!
I joined three swap groups, each consisting of 5 people plus myself. Each swap group had a clear brief we had to follow, there was a large choice so I decided to go with these.
- Christmas group - a Christmas card
- DSP group - a card with patterned paper as the main focus
- Any Bundle group - a card created using any bundle, typically a stamp set and a die or punch
Naturally, we had to use current Stampin' Up! products!
I made six of each card and kept one for myself.
All three style cards I created are fancy fold Christmas cards and I have filmed a tutorial for each one.
You can find the YouTube video tutorial at the end of this page.
I'll be sharing pictures of the swaps I receive on my Facebook page.
You can join my Facebook page here - just make sure you like my page so you can be notified when I post pictures of all 15 swaps, to see who has designed them and what products they've used!
Today's card was for the 'Any Bundle' swap group. I've created a Shadow Box card which usually is presented in a portrait orientation - however, I decided to mix things up a little and position it in a landscape setting.
The only stamps and dies I have used are from the Wishes and Wonder bundle, which includes the Wishes and Wonder stamp set and North Pole Wonder dies.
I also used this pattern from the beautiful Feels Like Frost DSP - this was perfect for my snowy sky background in the reindeer scene.
It's so difficult to capture how pretty the silver looks in these photographs, why not watch my video tutorial to see it in a better light
You'll see in my tutorial how I created every element on this card, including this silver embossed sentiment which you can see through this window.
If you fancy making this Shadow Box card and want to follow my video tutorial, here are the measurements you need to get prepared in advance
Whisper White cardbase:
- 14.9 cm x 29.7 cm
- Score longside at 10 cm, 19 cm, 20 cm & 29 cm
Thank you for visiting my blog today, if you decide to give this card a try, do leave me a comment or thumbs up on YouTube to let me know - I hope you enjoy watching my video tutorial!

Today's card is for the Christmas swap - a Double Z Fold card featuring the Peace and Joy bundle and the Tag Buffet stamp set!
I used the colours Smoky Slate, Blushing Bride and Silver for my swaps!
In my video tutorial I've used an alternative colour combo - Pretty Peacock, Pool Party and Gold
You might notice there are some subtle speckles on the Smoky Slate - I've used Frost White Shimmer Paint for this.
On my alternative version, I used Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint but the speckles are way more prominent - make sure you watch my tutorial to check it out!
My card features a lot of heat embossing, I love adding these touches, especially on Christmas cards
The sentiments I've used on the smaller panels are from the Tag Buffet stamp set.

Smoky Slate Cardbase- 10.5 cm x 29.7 cm

Welcome to the Stampin Dreams blog hop!
The theme for today's hop is Christmas. Come and take a look at what myself and Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all over the world have been creating!
To view all of the other projects, scroll down this page and find where it says 'You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!' and click the button underneath. Then simply click each photo in the gallery to check out each creation!
We do hope you find lots of inspiration here today for your Christmas papercraft projects!
You can learn how I created these treat bags by watching my video tutorial, which you'll find further down this page.
I have created these treat bags several times but this is a new, larger size standing at just under 7" tall.
To decorate my treat bag I used the Layering Circles dies to die cut the largest scallop circle in Pool Party cardstock and the largest circle in Whisper White cardstock.
I chose a sentiment from the Trimming the Town DSP (below right) that would fit within my die cut circle.
I then fussy cut a selection of houses from another sheet of the Trimming the Town DSP (below left). Starting from the middle, I positioned the houses above the sentiment, so that they slightly overlapped each other and did not exceed the width of the sentiment.
To learn how to make my treat bag, you can watch my video tutorial.
If you want to get everything prepared in advance, you will need a piece of patterned paper measuring 7 1/2" by 7 1/2".
Grab your scoreboard, scissors, bone folder and double-sided tape and note that all measurements are in inches
Score at 2 1/8"
Turn the paper clockwise once
Score at 2 1/8" (to the score line)
Score at 4 1/4"
Score at 6 3/8" (to the score line)
Score at 8 1/2"
I also have video tutorials for two different sized versions of this treat bag -
