Hello and welcome to my new section.
My plan is to whisk you into the world of Papercraft, guiding you gently into its many areas and hopefully you will find it as soothing as I do. Each week I will show you some new techniques and review some magazine and products. We will look at the basics as well as more complicated projects. I hope you will keep checking back to see what I am up to and perhaps find a little inspiration to. Paper craft I didn't start my journey with Papercraft in card making I actually started it in scrap booking about 10 years ago. We will look at scrapbooking soon, but if your not familiar with the term, its simply creating a photo album with captions words and embellishments. Each page will feature maybe one or more photos on a coloured back ground with added embellishments. It's a little more complex than that, but that's the basics. Whilst I enjoyed the project it was a labour of love and just a few years ago when I started Nanny Buttons Crafts as a business I subscribed to craft seller magazine. In this featured beautiful papers and sentiments which every month I failed to use. So I invested in some blank cards and started to use the paper's to make cards. Looking back they were a little basic but I found cutting and matching up colours so relaxing. The trouble is you soon progress to stamping. In all honisty with limited knowledge I really struggled with Stamping. Often the results were inconsistent, and I wasn't always sure about exactly what to do with the image once I had stamped it. A little knowledge now sees me loving Stamping. We will cover Stamping soon as well as die cutting embossing, using embellishments as well as many other areas. So I really do hope you stay with me to find out more.
