July Workshop


These are the cards from the July workshop. The first one is a tri-fold shutter card, which looks tricky but is actually quite simple. Cut a piece of cardstock 5"x12", then score at 2",4",8"&10". Measure in 1 1/2" from each long edge & cut between the 2"&10" score lines. If you cut your DSP for each section slighly smaller this will ensure it doesnt buckle when folded.

The next two cards are using and same layout style (from the Clean&Simple blog which has some fantastic simple card ideas). The first uses the scallop punch & cutting to the centre to make the flower petals. I've rolled the edges of each petal with a skinny skewer to give the petals some depth. The second card is a masculine card using the circle & star punches.

Card Ideas

A few card ideas. I don't know where Janine got the idea for the film stip card using the Spiral Punch - but I love the idea.

Thanks to my sis' for the seeing spots birthday day card too.
