Last year at the Stampin’ Up! leadership day for managers and above, we set a number of personal goals. One of the last goals I had to achieve for myself was to start making some You Tube videos of different stamping techniques, cards, tips, scrap pages and the like. Well like most things in my life, my personal goals took a backseat to a number of other things, but as I had just received my invitation to the 2014 leadership day at this years national Convention for Stampin’ Up! I figured I’d better get a wriggle on and tick the last item off the list.
So here it is a super simple card made using one of the pretty patterned tissues that we were able to buy at Convention last year in Momento Mall in the Stampin’ Up! colours. Well for the price and prettiness of them there was no way that I was using the tissues for blowing my nose and as my craft room is currently undergoing major renovations I can’t hoard stuff forever, so I decided to use them and in the process make my first video – there’s lots of room for improvement, but at least I’ve made a start.
As requested the card layer dimensions are: Base Pear Pizzazz – 21cm x 14.8cm (scored at 10.5cm to fold it in half) Whisper White with tissue layer – 10cm x 14.3cm Pear Pizzazz layer – 7.5cm x 10.5cm So Saffron – 7cm x 10cm Greeting flag: Calypso Coral 2.5cm wide & Whisper White 2.2cm wide
