Simple Stories Gatefold One Page Wonder

Hi Everyone!

This is a different version of a 'One Page Wonder'. I thought I would see what I could make using just 'one page' of design paper to create a project. I used Simple Stories Vintage Essential Colour Palette to create this little Gatefold Pocket Folio. It really challenges you to cut your paper and use the images to their best potential. All info is in my video

Hope you like it!

Mintay Valentine Chocolate Treat Boxes - Pizza Box Style

Today's video tutorial is for these very cute Chocolate Treat Boxes. I have made them Valentine's Day themed, but you could decorate them in any papers you wish. The box is a 'Pizza Style' box with a connected lid, so this is a fun one to make. The papers I used were from  ⁨@mintaypapers⁩  from the Chocolate Kiss and City of Love collections.

I hope you enjoy making them!

Graphic 45 Altered Envelope Pockets

 Hi Everyone!

I cannot believe that this is my 100th video created on YouTube, so I have a really fun tutorial for you!

I am calling these my Altered Envelope Pockets. They are quick to make and very addictive if you enjoy decorating your makes. Perfect as an alternative to a card, or to add to your journals. I have used Graphic 45 papers - Seas the Day, Spring is in the Air and Fairy Wings, but they would look great in any papers.

Hope you enjoy this one!

Beautiful PET Tape Fairy Tale Scene Cards

Happy New Year Everyone!

Today I thought I would share some cards using PET tape from Journalsay to make scenes. I have chosen Fairy Tale themes as I thought this would be very apt for this time of year, where in the UK we enjoy Pantomime productions at the theatre, often featuring adapted Fairy Tales. You can use any of your nesting or frame dies to achieve a similar effect for shaped cards.

Hope you like them!
