Maiden Hair Fern Card

Welcome to my second blog - Maiden Hair Fern Card

Quite a few people have enjoyed reading my first, so we've decided to submit on a weekly basis, each week showcasing different products or techniques. This week we are going to create a simple card, the basics of which you can change colour and papers, but the idea will stay the same.

This simple card is based on a simple formula - base card, narrow frame around your feature paper, small inset, stamped in matching colour to the paper, again with a narrow frame. See sample card photo for reference and placement of card and paper panels. If you'd prefer a different colour scheme, just change your papers and your stamp, again can be anything you like - I enjoyed using the maiden hair fern stamp as it gave different texture and a feeling of direction.

As always, if you have any queries regarding this project or any of our products, please phone or email us! We love to hear from you! enquiries@amazingcreations.com.auThis e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Weird & Wacky Card & Envelope with Pressed Daisies

Hi all and welcome to Amazing Creations' Blog!

We've been privileged to buy Amazing Creations with so many wonderful products and to see them being used so wonderfully all over Australia is just fantastic. We recently saw our Weird & Wacky Card and Envelope Templates being used by Debbie in Victoria. She's inspired me to put one of mine up here on my blog, so that you can see another version of the template used. Everyone comes up with a different idea on how to use these templates and it's just overwhelming to see the artistic results from such creative minds.
Here's a couple of photos of a card and matching envelope I've made using our products. I've cut out the card using the Longish Trifold template, using the shorter version of the card (the longer version doesn't fit into the envelope), then used some of our Painted Papers to cover and embellish the front, used our Two Pressed Daisies Stamp and Fluid Chalk Stamp pads to stamp the flowers and our sketched Happy Birthday as the message to appear in the cutout. With the envelope, I used another sheet of Painted Papers, cut out the template and stamped the Two Pressed Daisies on the side (you can also do this on the back over the flaps) to create interest and cohesion to your card and envelope set. What a wonderful addition to any gift to receive a matching hand-made card & envelope set!
