I’ve been wondering for a while what I would do if my card creaser broke. I’ve not had it a particularly long time – my Mum bought it for my birthday after I’d nearly worn out her Lakeland Craft catalogue, and to be honest, I don’t know what I’d do without it!
After measuring (to make sure that the fold will be central) I use the sharpish tip to mark where I want my fold line at the top and bottom of the card, I then score between the two. This gives me the indent where the fold will be and then I simply fold the card and use the rounded edge to press on the fold. Thus providing a professional looking card! The card creaser is also useful for smoothing down any rough edges to the cards.
Go and buy one!!
And so this tale of creativity starts

Well i’ve had my new cricut cutting machine for just over a week now and i’m absolutely loving it. As a card maker i don’t know how i ever managed to live without one. I am still in the learning process when it comes to blade length, pressure and speed etc but luckily for me the machine seems pretty fool proof and even i can’t go to wrong.
I have found great inspriration from an experienced cricutter and fellow member of the crafts forum, her name is Samm, she is an excellent card maker, knows her cricut machine inside out and has recently been chosen to join the design team for the Scrummy Stash Cafe. Her Blog can be found at http://samm-l.blogspot.com/.
As i love this machine so much i have decided to stock them and the accessories - so watch this space (so to speak) and as always the prices will be great. www.getcrafty.org.uk
If you own a cricut machine, why not come and show off your creations on the crafts forum………go on, you know you want to.

As somebody who is currently making, what seems like, a neverending supply of wedding and evening invites for friends, I thought Id look to my fellow crafters sites for encouragement.
My case study is of a person that goes by the name of Swirlyarts.
Not only is she a busy wife and mum but she has the energy to run her own card making website.From here I have found that she makes a wide range of hand made cards under many themes, birthdays, men’s cards etc, my favourite being the Alphabet range of children’s cards, complete with T for tree and G for giraffe.
She provides a one off service and commissions and is currently developing a wedding stationery range, not just invites but menus and placecards etc
Now, the jewel in the crown is what she sells on her etsy site www.swirlyarts.etsy.com In an age where recycling is essential, Swirly has made enevelopes out of magazine pages!!Perfect for the card of a fashion fanatic birthday girl! also available are colourful woollen scarves and blankets, a necessity in the recent weather.
So I have decided to stop being negative about my card making marathon and praise the likes of Swirly and many others who take joy in providing these products.
See her etsy store here: http://swirlyarts.etsy.com

(I apologise in advance)
The title says it all really as i’ve never ‘blogged’ before, so here goes.
A quick introduction: My name is Emma, i’m 28, mother to three lovely (well they are sometimes) children, i’m a part time accounts assistant and totally obsessed by making hand made cards. I also have a website for craft supplies which can be found at www.getcrafty.org.uk.
I have tried many crafts in the past but nothing has ever got a hold of me as card making does. I’m sure all you card makers will agree it’s a very relaxing hobby and can become very addictive. My favourite products at the moment are big flowers/blooms, brads and the designer paper stacks from Die Cuts With A View. I am also going through a phase of trying to use recycled items on my cards. I made the card shown below for my brothers birthday (which isn’t until the end of the month, i’m being organised for once), i have recycled a bottle top on this one and i’m sure he’ll like it.
Why not take a look around your house for items you could recycle on your craft projects.
