#Loveitchopit with Magnolia Lane

As customers scrabble to purchase their favourite products before they retire, I’m scrabbling to use up my favourite retiring products because I only like to show you things that you can still buy. This is my choice; it’s often said to me “you have to use current products, don’t you?” but that’s not actually true. I just choose to concentrate on current products only because my crafting time is so limited.
Everything I make has to serve not only its desired purpose (a birthday card, a gift, a class project etc) but be shown on my blog, Facebook page and Instagram too. Waste not, want not!

This card uses the fabulous #loveitchopit technique pioneered by Aussie demo Kylie Bertucci. Basically you cut your 12x12 Designer Series Paper into 6x4 pieces, then use them on card fronts. It’s such a simple idea which not only gets you using your paper but means you can make beautiful and easy cards in next to no time!

I made this one using Magnolia Lane Designer Series Papers and the new Ornate Thanks stamp set. Hope you like it!

Make a journal with the Magnolia Lane Suite

These Magnolia Lane Designer Series Papers are beautiful but I have resisted them until now. And now they are perfect for me as a bulk pack is available, meaning I can offer this project as a kit in the post!

I will be holding this via Zoom, which means you can keep safe, Keep Calm & Craft On. You'll receive everything you need in the post to make this journal from scratch. From scratch, I tell you!

Priority will be given to existing customers and previous class attendees as places are limited. After that, open to anyone in the UK. Get in touch if you'd like more info!

The main thing to remember when making a journal from scratch is not to add the inside cover until absolutely everything you need is on the outside! Full tutorial is exclusive to those who join the class, but you can see something similar in my 12-year-old tutorial here.
