Needlepoint Nook Mothers Day card trio

So... seeing as it is Mother's Day in the UK today... here is the Needlepoint Nook Mother's Day trio...  

But before I start.... Don't forget it is now the last few hours of the Sale A Bration promotion.... Finishes 10.30pm tonight in the UK... 

So click to order here... to see free Sale A Bration products here ... or to sign up with Stampin' Up! here...

And so back to the cards...

First up the Neutrals Butterfly Simple Z Fold Card ... 

Although the simplest... this proved to be the overall favourite in classes... proving I am always safest with blues and greens with my groups of ladies!! 

More details and Simple Z Fold Card Tutorial on this post here... 

Secondly... the favourite amongst my purple fanciers! 

The Highland Heather Joy Fold card...

More details and Joy Fold Card Tutorial on this post here...

And last but not least... the Double Z Joy Fold card in whites that I shared here on Friday... 

Though most ladies made the Crushed Curry (yellow) version posted here with the Tutorial... 

So there you have my Mother's Day trio... which I am posting as I hope that these cards (all with tutorials) prove inspirational to someone in the rest of the world for their 12th May makes... although too late now for my UK readers...

Needlepoint Nook Fun Fold Friday

Change just one colour and this Double Z Joy Fold card changes a lot!! 

But before I start... just sayin!! 

So I had a remake of this card to do as unfortunately I had to postpone a class last week and one of my lovely ladies, Sarah couldn't make the new date this week...  

And Mother's Day is this Sunday in the UK... so time was of the essence!!

But I happen to know that yellow is Sarah's most hated colour... so a re-think was required... and this is the result... 

Doesn't that look so much cooler (as in cold!!!) and only the card blank, a few flowers and a "happy" changed...

Though I will laugh if Sarah's mum's favourite colour happens to be yellow!!

Rest of the card details and Double Z Joy Fold card Tutorial on this post here... 

PS Which one do you prefer??? I have to admit that (unusually as I do like my white!!!) the yellow version does it more for me...

Needle & Thread with Needlepoint Nook Pop Up Front Step Panel Card

Here is the lovely Jane's card... which I am happy to report was very very happily received on Wednesday!!! 

Apart from the fact that it didn't say 40 on it... as a few years back I (mistakenly) gave Jane a card with 36 on (instead of 46)... and it has become a standing joke ever since... 

So this is a card especially made with Jane in mind... as she went into ecstasies over this cotton-thread-flowers paper sheet from Needlepoint Nook (and wants a full pack just with this sheet!!!)

She also loves her glitter... all year round... and is the only class customer that is already on her third Wink of Stella... as she just can't resist... 

Glad you loved the card Jane... and I have to admit that I do too! And guess which card fold will be in April's classes.... by special request...

And yes... it does fold flat to go in an envelope...

Though sorry... no tutorial today for this modified Stitched Rectangles version of the Pop Up Front Step Panel Card... but I will photo for a step by step tutorial when I make the next one... but it is based upon this card shared earlier in the week...
