More bead making fun from Colour de Verre. This time they’re Geometric beads. Another cool mold that coolks the glass in your kln. A little frit or powder and you’ve got sets of perfect beads…they come in squares and triangles. So add those to your round bead molds and you’ve got a fine set of goodies you can create. And look at the bottom picture. They’re not just for jewelry. I really love them as accents on that plate. So cool. Perfect edge decoration! You’ll also find instructions on their web site…

How to Make a Tri-Fold Spring Bird Card
Add some interest to your card making with a tri-fold design. A tri-fold card has three sections that overlap in a zig zag to create dimension and a little extra interactive element to the design instead of a traditional single fold card. Ilina used new stamps and dies from Hero Arts to create her Tri-fold Spring Birds Card.
The bottom layer of her design is the first flap and it’s got die cut grass, purple flowers and the heat embossed white sentiment, the next layer has different pink flowers and the two birds sitting on a hill, the last layer is the inside of the card with a hedge of greenery where you can add a hand written or stamped sentiment inside. She used markers to add additional color to her images. You can watch her video tutorial over on the Hero Arts blog.
