There are so many techniques, tutorials, card folds, embellishments, papers and new products on the market that today's challenge should be a cinch for all of us. My "something new" is a card created with my envelope maker. Although it's a tool I've used many times, I've never actually used it to make a card.
YOUR TURN: Create a card or project using a new technique, tutorial or product.

Since I have tried most of the card fold techniques on your blog Beccy, this one might be a challenge to find something new. Although, like you I haven't tried using my envelope maker to make a card so that might be it. Another technique for the letter E too!
There's so much I haven't tried yet. I know I am late to the party on shakers but I did just made third shaker card. That's a relatively new technique for me. I'm sure there's a fold I haven't tried. I'll have to look through your tutorials. Thanks so much for stretching our skills!
OK, I went to your Card Fold Tutorials page, Beccy, and chase one I've not done before. The best thing about your tutorials are the extremely clear, sensible, step-by-step instructions that make it easy to try something new. Love the envelope card and the adorable mitten image! Thanks, and I'm off to the craft room! :-D
This is a beautifully colored card. I love how the mitten is filled with cinnamon sticks and berries. Many years ago when I used to design Christmas arrangements at a local craft store I used to make some affordable decorations of several cinnamon sticks tied with a beautiful red bow and a little sprig of shiny red berries. That's what this reminds me of. I need to get out of my comfort zone and try new techniques but never seem to have the desire to. Maybe one day........[Bunny]
Beautiful card and No I havent tried that either. I guess finding my designer papers 1st under all the mess on my desk might be something new for me and picking my colour combo from that. You never know what i find on this desk.
So very beautiful!
Another fun "keep us on our toes" challenge. I know that there are tons of fun things to try out there. The challenge will be to decide which one. Sweet idea to use your envelope maker to make a card. Love the sweet-smelling mitten. Cinnamon is one of my favorite smells of Christmas and all year long!
Beccy, I like this idea of the envelope as a card. I already used my two new techniques (acetate card and gatefold card) so I had to use a new die that I had.
Gorgeous card! Love the card fold idea! will have to rty making one of these
Have a great day!

A lovely card and what a challenge to inspire us all to try something new. I'm off to try using glitter flakes - something I bought many years ago (it seemed like a good thing at the time!) and have never used!
Wonderful! I like the colours and the layout so much.
Thanks for the inspiration!
All the best!

Oooh now that is a challenge. There is a card that I would like to try to make so this s the perfect opportunity. I don't have a clue what they call it though..... I'll probably just make it up as a I go along LOL
Your card is lovely. The colouring is so soft and subtle and your berries look real.
Hi Beccy this is a gorgeous card. I love it. I haven't tried that technique. Thank you for the inspiration. Take care. Hugs Jackie
Such a pretty card, Beccy! I adore red and I love how you've coloured this! How cool that you made the card with your envelope maker. I know there are a lot of techniques and folds that I've not tried yet so this should be fun!
Beautiful warm red colour. And how handy to be able to make a card with an envelope die! Creative regards, Gina
Neat card. I think I know what I will do.
Oh what a fun challenge. I have already selected a card from your tutorials. I will submit the card later, I have to look for the appropriate elements.
Great idea, love the card.
A beautiful card and your coloring is so gorgeous and warm!
I thought tis morning to challenge myself to use some goldfoil on my card, after a few try's I gave up. Every time when I wanted to remove the protective sheet from the doublesided foil I got tangled. Then I thougt, I'm gonna cut the word from gold paper but when I had it gleud on my card and wanted to remove my tape I tranfered it with it removed some gold. Finally it worked using thicker diffrent gold paper but I didn't had the time to finish the card so I will enter it later this week.
