I MADE THIS, YET AGAIN WITH THE TUTORIAL FROM CHARMED CARDS & CRAFTS.
THIS IS MY FIRST EVER EXPLODING BOX,I DIDNT HAVE ANY MATCHING PAPERS FOR INSIDE, SO I LIKE THE OUTSIDE, BUT THE INSIDE IS RANDOM RATHER THAN FLOWING!THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BOXES HAVE LOVELY CO-ORDINATING PAPERS & RIBBONS & LOOK QUITE SPECTACULAR. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED MAKING THIS BOX, SO WATCH THIS SPACE FOR MY FINE TUNED BOXES.
This card is made thanks to the excellant tutorial on Charmed Cards site, showing how to do circular greetings on cards.
This is using a Tinker & Co download from www.cheapdies.co.uk. using the Sherbert Fairy range.
THIS IS ONE OF MY FIRST OF MANY TO MAKE THANK YOU CARDS.
ONCE YOU HAVE MASTERED THE POP UP MECHANISM THE CARD LENDS ITSELF TO ANY OCCASION.

My Grandad, is a well known swimming Instructor, he has taught thousand of people, adults & Children to swim & trained swimmers for the Olympics. In 2006 he won the Sports Personalities of the year award for his help in teaching people to swim, lots of time just because he could & not for any money.
This is the brag book I made for his 90th birthday, the first pictures are of his father who also taught people to swim & trained them.
We are all very proud of his place in History.

These cards I made with quilled roses,I love making them. the slipper card I made completely from scratch, I used glitter glue on acetate, then when it was dry I renoved it from the acetate to leave the glitter slipper. Then using strips of co-ordinating paper, cut into strips I quilled the Roses.
First cut equal squares of your chosen design,you usually need 8 squares.
Fold a square in half,horizontally,design side inwards.
Open and fold in half again,vertically,designside outwards.
Open & it gives you a cross in the square.
Fold in half,corner to corner, crease well with a fingernail or bone tool.
Open & fold in half again, with the opposite corner to corner.
Hold a opposite corners in either hand and push together, to form the star,then flattern each of the four 'v's
Which gives you this shape.

Carry on round until you have a circle,add a brad in the centre for decoration.
