…compilation of tutorials
This time I find the title absolutely convenient: I find this pop up really fantastic!
Note: The PDF links can’t be reached anymore, apparently amongst other things because of copyright infringements.
After all we have to buy the book ourselves :)

I find the principle behind these cards fascinating – and the one on the photo most beautiful!
And then I even found an instruction!
At the next opportunity I want, too! ;-))

The first card of this kind that I saw was Poetic Series #38 WorkName : Hide-and-go-seek (search there for ‘Poetic Series’ => card number 38 with the name of ‘Hide-and-go-seek’)
When I saw the chameleon I was totally amazed – especially because it contains also a secret compartment!
Well, it doesn’t go with my room, but who knows…

What a great idea to plant old cameras!
I still have some and old lenses, some of which are broken and I don’t need them anymore, but I can’t part with them.
Perhaps I shouldn’t and instead plant them.
Hm, on the other hand I have a brown thumb, it can therefore get difficult to plant them.

I find Origamic Architecture fascinating and presented some time ago already the Origamic Architecture pencil holder, now I found more (although mostly very simple) Origami Architecture patterns which can easily be used for little greeting cards.
I could surf the internet for hours and check – partly really spectacular – Origamic Architecture ;-)

Sometimes you must be allowed to do something else than crafting or needlework, so why not reading a mystery that concerns in some way crafting or needlework?

When I saw the tutorial on how to make polymer clay Zentangles I thought: ‘Wow! What a great idea!’
Up until now I only sketched my Zentangles and made a lot of things with Fimo and I even thought about making the polymer clay letter cane ;-)
I still have some black and white polymer clay canes, perhaps I can make something with them.

Now there lies a lot of gift wrapping paper around at most of our homes and we have to think about what to do with it.
One possibility is to make envelopes from it – if it’s not too Christmassy then there’s no problem and if it is, then it’s great for the next year, after all Christmas always comes completely surprisingly ;-)
For me at least ;-)
