Hey everyone! It's my turn to host the blog today. And I have a video for you. I had a couple of email asking me how did I do the 'Fly Girl Fly' layout from my March gallery and I thought I'd show you how. They're strips of cardstock. Eyeballed and punched. And I sort of 'hide' the edge of the strips with red strings.
Some things to note
ignore my crazy hair, please. LOL.
I know I should probably try to angle the camera towards my table. Will do that next time. So sorry.
I shriek. I should totally control myself from shrieking I know.
Then I changed my mind and added more red strings. Just the way I roll *smiles*. And here's the completed card. Very simple, but also very fast and good if you want to mass produce.
Supplies; Fabrips - Anthology Studio Calico, Cardstock - Kraft (Bazzill), Butterfly Punch - Fiskars, Sentiments Stamps - Studio Calico, Ink - Brown Sugar JBS Dye Ink
I hope you enjoy this post as much as I enjoyed getting it ready for you!
Sasha -
1. I loved your video. You are very sweet.
2. I loved your hair - not crazy at all.
3. I loved your card - the extra line of string is a perfect touch.
4. I loved that you just made the video and didn't worry about it being perfect.
5. I loved that you loved your card - I loved it too!
6. One of my favourite bits of the video - (when you were talking about your red string) "This is something, I don't know" Just made me chuckle, but now I want to get to my craft store and buy red string!
7. Thanks, you made me smile and I want to make a card just like that.
:o)
