Hi,
My today's vlog and blog is a snowglobe project Which I made using things that are available at home.

Glitter
Miniature figurines
Miniature trees
Glycerin
Distilled water

The dry shaker snowglobe is perfect for kids project

Explosion Pop - up Card

Hi,
Making scrapbook is my favourite hobby, but when it comes to the interactive part or adding a photo mat with a twist, I feel a little bit lazy. I want my scrapbooks to be sweet & simple. Recently I have seen so many people making interactive scrapbooks. One of them was this Explosion pop up card. This card was originally created by Karen Burniston I guess. Her's was the first video I have seen exhibiting this card. I tried making this by my own. It turned out to be good.

This card making requires time to make so this can be gifted as a special gift for someone special
Supplies used are
Cardstock
Pattern paper
Washi tapes
Edge punch

Base card 6 by 12 inches,  scored and folded at 5, 10 & 10.25 inches
