dawn-create-craft

I would just like to thank you all for your kind messages and emails after my first Create and Craft show yesterday. I think you will agree with me that the 3 ScrapBerry’s collections are not only fantastic quality but great value, too.

I do hope you manage to purchase your ScrapBerry’s kit before they sold out. If so, let me know in the comments below which kit was your favorite.

I was delighted with how the set looked with all the beautiful samples the design team had made using ScrapBerry’s kits. I couldn’t believe just how quickly the hours show went and thought that if you were looking for further ideas and inspirations, I would put together the following videos showing the samples of each kit in a little more depth.

Card in a Box

I really enjoyed making this card last night and thought I would share it with you.

It is such a great card as you only need one sheet of A4 cardstock and for the rest you can use bits and bobs from your crafty stash.

I found the idea on Pinterest and it was a video demo by a lady called Monica who is a Stampin Up Demonstrator.

You can make this card to fit so many occassions and there are lots of ideas on the web and pinterest.

The other great thing is that it lays flat for postage but a beautiful 3D card once the envelope has been opened.

So go on and give it a go a quick card that looks like it has taken ages to make.
