Cross Keys Crafts
United Kingdom
Приєднався 26 сер 2022
Hi, I'm Sabine. I'm originally from Germany, but moved to the UK in 2015 when my English partner (now husband) and I bought a village pub in Llandudno, North Wales, called "The Cross Keys Inn" - thus the name of my craft "business".
I started off with handmade jewellery, but got into card making in 2019. I have learned so much along the way (mainly through some fantastic UA-camrs: Natasha Foote, Ann Melvin and Sam Calcott to name a few) that I decided to share this fabulous craft on my own UA-cam Channel.

Beautiful Atcs. Thank you for sharing.🥰😊
That was the idea that I had too for the last card to make a book binding style. Lovely cards Frohe Weihnachten Sabine to you and yours xx 🎄
@@IrenaJacquelin thank you. Same to you. x
Lovely cards. Happy Christmas to you and your family.🥰😊
@@margaretflaxman, thank you. x
Happy Christmas to you and your family too. Lovely ideas for cards xx
@@cmcarpenter123cardsandthings, thank you. x
It turned out really well Sabine and very appropriate for a December birthday! xx 😊
What a fantastic card you made with great instructions absolutely stunning
Lovely pop up card. Thank you for sharing.🥰😊
I’m glad to hear I inspired you 😊 I have Brother scan and cut machine and I’m the same, don’t like the sharp edges and always smooth it down with my bone folder. Very beautiful and sparkly card Sabine ❤ I love it and I’m sure the birthday girl will love it as well. Thank you for sharing xx
❤🇦🇺
Fab pop-up Sabine. Please can you email me your address, I have some rubber sentiment stamps in German that you may be able to use or gift on to someone else? ☺
Thank you, Emma. I replied the other day to your generous offer. Where do I find your email address? Mine is crosskeyscrafts2022@gmail.com. 😉
WOW, that is an amazing 80th card! So much detail and time that has gone into it, the recipient will be over-joyed to receive it. x
Hi Sabine, I have some German text stamps that you may like which I'd like to send to you, they are from a Stampin' Up set that I got for the images, but I can't use the text stamps, so they are new/unused. If you are happy for me to send them to you let me know so that we can message each other and I can get your address. Em. x
Thank you, Emma, yes, please. I didn't know Stampin' Up did German sentiments... 😉💡 You could email me at crosskeyscrafts2022@gmail.com. Thank you. 💕
Gorgeous card. I’m sure the birthday girl will be over the moon with it ❤
Beautiful card. Thank you for sharing.🥰😊
Just WOW, what a lovely and sparkly card Sabine 😍i love how u incorporated the numbers into the card. The flowers r so pretty, this card will be very well received! ✨💖
@@createwithKatarina, thank you for the inspiration. 🥰
That is really nice. ❤🇦🇺
I like that idea Sabine! xx 😊
Beautiful, nice to see some different cards. Thank you for sharing.🥰😊
Sabine these are FAB! I think my fave is the Star card and I am deffo going to have to try it. Thank you. x
Cute card. A little tip from Natalie Ballard - if you get wet glue or glue stick on the front of foiled card take a baby wipe, wrap around your finger, preferably round your nail nd gently wipe the glue way. Much easier than using anything else I've found.
@angeladouel5397, thank you for that tip! I need to try it. 😊
Not seen that before, nice. Glad you got the power back. ❤😂😂🇦🇺
Great cards I like the idea of using a circle instead of a square.
Great cards Sabine, those penguins are just adorable 🥰 if it bothers you, you can always add a slightly bigger white circle on the back panel to wrote the message on, but i think it looks great as it is, it would be displayed slightly unfolded anyway ☺️
Gorgeous cards Sabine, love the penguins! x
Beautiful cards Sabine, love the first one. Those penguins are so cute. Hope you will find your 0 dies. Thank you for sharing xx
Lovely cards , those penguins are so cute 😊
The penguins are so cute, I love how you added the sparkle, I wouldn't change the colour of the circle, it looks fabulous! I'm going to borrow your idea with a hinge! Brilliant! Thank you for your inspiration :) Happy crafting!
Reallly pretty cards Sabine, I love the Snowman card you showed at the start, how you have placed the V lower down and made it look like a little scene. x
Great gift box and tutorial. Thank you for sharing.🥰😊
Make a paper circle and fold it in half until you see the angle you need. Use as a guide.
Love the end result and all the colors look great. Thank you for showing us this idea❤
If u just have a protractor,just lay the flat bottom line of the protractor along any of the lines u have already pencilled then make a mark at 22.5°. Repeat this step on all of the other pencil lines and then connect each 22.5° markto the central spot on your cardstock where all the previous lines cross. I hope i havn't offended you i just thought this way may be a little easier
Hi Lynn. Thanks for the tip. No, you haven't offended me. (My menopausal brain fog sometimes prevents me from seeing the easier way!) 😉
What a wonderful tutorial and brilliantly explained, Sabine. That’s a perfect size for so many gifts.
Fantastic. You are so clever x
This design has been around for years, I'd forgotten about it! Might use it this year, thanks for reminding me x
I have wanted a stamping wheel for quite some time, but hesitate to buy yet another item to store that will only be used a few times a year. Making my own though? Perfect! Thank you so much for the detailed instructions.
Very nice! Thnx!
I wonder if using acetate or stencil making plastic wouldn't work a bit better with TomBow glue or there's an Aleens glue people put on stencils? Or use a thin light grip mat for a Cricut machine cut down to size and put your marking on it. With a Cricut mat the measurement grid is already on it making it easier to line up your card stock. The only other thing I could think to make it easier would be the rotating cutting mat we quilters use for cutting fabric but then you'd have to have a stamp block or one that has pressing feet.
@Babs-Veterans-are-Family , great ideas! Definitely worth trying out! 😉
Brilliant. Thank you for sharing.🥰😊
Genius, thank you!❤
Brilliant thank you
Lovely wallet will go well with your backpack. Thank you for sharing.🥰
Beautiful back pack, what a gorgeous birthday gift for your friend😊
Lovely atc and card. The receipe for texture paste I have is 4 of baby powder, 2 of Acrylic paint and 1 of PVA glue. Thank you for sharing.🥰😊
@@margaretflaxman That recipe sounds good, too! The paste will probably be whiter than mine, which is good as mine was a bit transparent. 😉
