Back From Break! And Origami Dragon! And Challenge!

Hi Everyone!!! I'm back from my week long break, I was just getting ready for school and other things but I'm happy to continue now! So for today I have a really cool origami project to share with you all! My friend Rida, made this origami dragon (pic below)!! Isn't it amazing?!?! It took her 3 weeks to make in parts and I probably would have given up the first day!
So going with the origami theme....let's do a challenge! I want everyone to try and make something origami, it could be very simple or complicated depending on your choice and I want you all to send me a pic of it to my email at: craftingfunwithhamna@yahoo.com :) Even if your sure you don't want to, please give it a try and it only takes a minute to show the world your creativity because I will also show pics of the origami projects here! The deadline for this challenge is Aug.19 and I will have a post on Aug.20 showing the origami projects that you all made! And this challenge is special because the past "supply of the day" challenges will also be included so please show your creativity and there's still time to do those challenges and email me by the deadline so that your projects can be shown on Aug.20 here! That's it for now! Keep On Crafting!

Diecuts!

Hi Everyone! So my long/regular posts will start from today, the past small ones were just to quickly post because I was busy but still wanted to have some posts on my craft site up for you guys. :) Also I will feature/show some eid cards that I made soon. But for today, I will be doing a post on diecuts! If your wondering hmm what are diecuts?? Well, they are pieces of paper/cardstock cut into shapes usually by some diecutting machine. Most crafters know about diecuts so its normal if you don't know what they are. Now below is a pic of a diecut that I cut using my cricut machine(which is a diecutting machine).

I love using diecuts because you can cut words or even a shape to use as the main focus of your card. Heres a pic of an example of a shape heart diecut below. My favorite part using shape diecuts is that you can use cute patterned paper. :)

Now if you don't have a diecut machine since they can be pricey, try using a stamp. Just stamp then cut out and you have a diecut! Below is a pic of a good example of a stamp set that you could use to make diecuts.


Now I hope you guys learned more about what diecuts are because I'm gonna be using them in the future a lot on my cards! If you have any tips or suggestions for posts or any other fun stuff you wanna see on CFWH, then remember to email me at craftingfunwithhamna@yahoo.com! That's it for now! Keep On Crafting!
