Free video tutorial: Working with a step card die & How to mat

This week I’m sharing a free video tutorial with you all. Sometimes when working with a card shape die, like a die for a step card, it’s not always easy figuring out how to mat it. Which is why I’m sharing that specific technique in this week’s video.

Both the step card die and the little sentiment stamp Proficiat (Congratulations) are by Crealies. The paper collection is the stunning An Eerie Tale by Graphic 45, which has dreamy images and wondrously lovely autumn colors.

Enjoy the video & pics below and leave a comment to let me know what you think!

 

Scrap with me tutorial #4: Matting

Hello everyone,

As this beautiful summer is slowly preparing itself for the transition into autumn, I’m sharing what will be the last of my series of four video tutorials on basic papercrafting techniques. Today’s topic is matting: how to determine your measurements, taking into account the width of the margins you would like all around. Of course I’m incorporating both centimeters and inches into my explanation, to cater to all of you 🙂 .

In the video I’m also referring to an earlier tutorial of mine, concerning the matting of a wooden box (outside and inside), which I of course also shared on this blog, with that specific video tutorial embedded.

Hopefully all of this is helpful for you – if you still have any questions, let me know by leaving a comment! If you know anyone else who might find this useful, please share this on your social media. And please like & subscribe to never miss any of my posts again 🙂
