Create and Craft

    The Covid 19 Pandemic has made us into different people. We are a lot more reliant on the Internet than we were. We have done more and more shopping on line over the past years, but this year while we have been in lockdown that has rocketed.
     As a crafter i have always bought most of my supplies on line. We only have one craftstore in our area, and truthfully I find it rather expensive.
    Many years ago now I became a Create and Craft Club Member, and this is my go to craft store. I have had a lot of stuff from them over the years.

I bought my Scan and Cut from Create and Craft. This is absolutely the best bit of equipment I have in my craftroom. I use it everyday, and for just about everything.

This is the newest Tattered Lace usb and it has just arrived. Im looking forward to using it, more so because it has Halloween cutting files on it.
I have seen comments from people who are not happy with the service they get from Create and Craft, but i have to say i have never had bad service from them. If there is a problem it is always sorted out very quickly.
Flexipay means you can spread the cost of more expensive items, and of course have them delivered to your door. Club membership means 10% discount on everything which is a plus from me.
The choice of products is huge. From cutting dies, to CDroms and usbs for digital crafting.

This is my "little" stash of CDroms and usbs. I have about 200, most of which came from Create and Craft. I use them all a lot as I am a huge fan of digital crafting.


Today is Ask a Stupid Question Day, so here is mine

Which sock do you put on first? Left or right.

Christmas Wreath Decoration.

I made this Wreath using files from a Carnation crafts Christmas usb. It was really easy to make. It comes with all of the mats and layers you need as well as all of the decoupage. There are 3 mat layers. I cut two base layers in black, a middle layer in gold and the top layer in black. I cut two base layers because I have put a ribbon loop at the top so you can hang the finished Wreath up. I simply held the ribbon in place with a piece of tape and then sandwiched it between the two black base layers. Then I added the gold layer and finally the black top layer. Next was the decoupage. I printed the decoupage onto 128gsm Navigator paper. This is my go to paper. The print quality is exellent. I get mine in bulk from amazon but if you have a Wilko nearby they sell it as well. I glued the base layer in place flat. Then I added the decoupage pieces using silicone glue. I shaped the pieces to give a better effect by just gently moulding the pieces with my fingers. The sentiment was cut from ...

Christmas Album Page 2

Today I have made page 2 of my Classic Christmas Mini Album. Page 2 is a lovely waterfal page. Again I cut the base page to 7.5x7.5 ins. The waterfall pages are 6.5 ins wide x 5ins high. Then scored at  .5 of an inch on the short side. The closure mechanism is 2 ins wide and 6ins long. I then scored at .5 of an inch on the long side. I added glue to this small flap and glued the strip centrally at the bottom of the page. Then I added the main page mat which I cut at 7.25x7.25 ins. The waterfall mats all measure 6.25x4.25ins and we're glued in place. Next I added glue to the flaps on the waterfall pages. Be carefully to line them up properly. I added a tiny topper at the top of the closure. I added a magnet to the back of the topper and the front of the top waterfall page. Remember to do this before you add your decorative paper. If you would like to see a video of how I made this page here is the link  Page 2 I have also made a short video showing how I add pages to my albums which...
