Showcasing the new January-june mini & Sale-A-Bration catalogues!


Hi Everyone,

Welcome to my first post for 2021! I'm pleased to be taking part in the ESAD Blog Hop showcasing products from the new January - June 2021 Mini catalogue and/or Saleabration. You may be just starting out (if so, you have 13 wonderful blogs to visit) or you may have come from Monique's blog

I had to put my thinking cap on for this one, I have been so focused on making Christmas cards over the past few months.


So I tried a Gatefold Card:




The beauty of this fold is there's no precise measuring needed, I just eyeballed the first fold and brought the second fold into match the edge. I mean, you could definitely measure and score your card stock but where's the fun in that? 


And my second card is a standard design... But I found out some of the new Dandy Garden Designer Series Paper patterns match and by following these hints from Brian King, I matched up 2 pieces of dsp to make a new background.


Here's a closer photo to see the 2 layers of dsp:



Now to continue on the hop, please head over to Rochelle's blog
