Quick & Simple Flower Pot Birthday Card | Sukilu Crafts

Hello everyone!!

I can't believe how long it's been since I've done a blog post. I was really focused on starting YouTube which takes up so much more time than my blog (especially working full time!) I really want to start creating new content for you so please be sure to leave any requests in the comments section.

I have made so many cards recently as there has been a lot of birthdays in the family and I absolutely love how this card turned out.

It was so simple to make but all the elements of the card create such a beautiful finish.

Beer Bottle Box - Step By Step Tutorial

Hey everyone!

Welcome to another step by step tutorial.

I wanted to create a nice bag for a beer bottle as I was giving to someone at my work for his birthday! I couldn't find anything that fit nicely that I had already made and nothing online!

I actually worked out all these measurements myself and I love how snug the bottle fits. It was quite easy to make once I had worked out the measurements. This should fit most standard shape/size beers. It may just need adjusting slightly for bigger ones.

If you want me to do a post about how I work out the measurements for this and other gifts then let me know in the comments section!

Just keep reading to find out how to make this bag.

3D DSP Card - Step By Step Tutorial

Hey everyone and welcome to another post!

Today I have another step by step tutorial on this card. I seem to be making a lot simple cards lately and I have been having so much fun trying different techniques to give them something extra.

This is so simple to make. You just need some square dies and dimensionals. You could just cut out square shapes if you don't have dies or a big shot.

If you want to find out how you can make this then please just keep reading.

Fancy Fold Card - Step By Step Tutorial

Hey everyone!

So I was recently looking through some of my crafting magazines and I came across a picture of a card with a style I hadn't seen before. I really wanted to re-create it in my own way and in today's post I will be showing you exactly what I made! 

I love how this card turned out and I used some of my favourite paper. 

It's so easy to make it, you don't have to use as many layers as I have. I will be giving a lot of measurements in this post so it may just be worth jotting them all down! I love giving people cards that are unusually shaped as they look so much more interesting sometimes.

Box For Patterned DSP Card - Step By Step Tutorial

Hey everyone and welcome to another post!

So my last one was showing you how you can create some very cute cards which are ideal for any occasion. I explained how you can get away without putting any embellishments on the front of the card so then you could fill out the inside for any celebration!

Another fun thing you can do with these card is make a bunch, pop them in a box and gift them to someone who loves all things handmade! They can then use them however they like. I have quite a few friends and family who frequently ask me to make cards for them and this is exactly what I do for them so they can use them to their liking. 

In todays post I will show you how you can create the box to fit the cards I did in my last post. It's so quick and easy and I use the same colour scheme to everything would match.

Check out how to make the cards for this box here.
