Pop-Up Shadow Box Card Tutorial

 Hi everyone!

Today I'm sharing a 6x6 Pop-Up Shadow Box Card and the tutorial is on my YouTube channel

This card fold is so easy and has so many possibilities!!!

Also, if you don't like the 6x6 size, I have a tutorial for an A2 size version as well that I will link to later in this post.

The papers I used are from an old paper pad I have had for years, but the Happy Birthday, and the sweet little Dachshunds are cutting dies from InLoveArts.  Other embellishments are also just from my stash.  And I encourage you to use YOUR STASH.....but.....I will have links to the products I can get links for, like InLoveArts.

Now....if this card has got your attention and you want to watch the tutorial so you can follow along step by step, then just CLICK HERE to watch my tutorial on my YouTube channel, Janie - The Craft Princess

Normally I would send you to my channel to get the product links, but today I'm going to put the links right here!

EASY 6" x 6" Flip & Fold Mini Album Photo Folio Tutorial

Hi Everyone!  Welcome to my blog!

I designed this Flip & Fold Mini Album many years ago, but in a couple different sizes.... 5" x7" and 4" x 4".... and this one is a 6" x 6".  It is not complicated at all as you will see in my YouTube video tutorial 😊

You can get all of the measurements and instructions by clicking HERE to watch my video.

A heads up.... my tutorial is on how to make the album, but not how to add all the extras.  Everyone has their own style and may not be interested in what I added.  If you see something I added that you would like to learn how to make, just leave me a comment and let me know.  I might already have a video tutorial or can make a video in the future.

This album has pages and pockets for many pictures, journaling, and other things.  It's perfect for pictures of a specific event, like arrival of a baby, or a birthday, or vacation.  It is the perfect size for 4" x 4" photos, or 3" x 5" photos.

This album is easier than it looks.  I hope you stop by and watch😊

EASY Split Bow Card A2 Size

Hi everyone!  Welcome to my blog! 

Last week on my YouTube channel I did a tutorial on how to make a Split Bow card.  I chose to make it an A2 size, and horizontal.

It can also be turned vertically.

As you know, I do my tutorials in a YouTube video, and you can watch and follow along by clicking HERE

This card is easy to make even though it looks fancy.  The card base and layers are the same as you would do for your A2 size card.  The bow uses a 6" x 5" piece of double sided patterned paper.  You will also want something to put in the center, whether it's a die cut, piece of ephemera, or sentiment.  That is all you will need!  My video shows how to make the bow 😊

As always the products used are in the video description box, but today I'm also going to include here.

Cowgirl UP 6X6 Paper Pad

Cowgirl Up ephemera

This style card has so many possibilities! I hope you give it a try 😊

How To Make A Pop-Up Inside Your Cards - EASY FOR EVERYONE!

 How To Make A Pop-Up Inside Your Cards!

This technique is EASY FOR EVERYONE!

First I would like to explain WHY I send you to my YouTube videos to watch the tutorials.....

I find it easier to teach you by SHOWING you while TELLING you, and I'm not good at putting everything in writing.  And for many people it is also easier to learn when you can SEE the process in action.  So I hope you don't mind.

In this video I'm showing how easy it is to add a pop-up feature to any card.  I will be adding a pop-up birthday cake 🎂

You may have gotten the idea just by looking at these pictures, but if you would like to watch my tutorial video on YouTube, please CLICK HERE

Be sure to come back in July for some Christmas inspiration!

Thank you for stopping by, and....
