Today I am sharing a very easy card featuring Stampin Up! Rooted In Nature stamp set and some ink blending with a makeup brush. The colours I used are Pineapple Punch, Granny Apple Green and Smoky Slate. I also used Memento Tuxedo Black Ink for the tree and then clear embossed over the top of the tree. All products featured can be purchased through my ONLINE STORE AUSTRALIA
Today I am sharing my latest card creation which is (in my opinion) super cute!! I used Stampin Up! All Wired Up background stamp and the oldie but goodie, This Little Piggy stamp set. I also used the Stitched Shaped Dies. I used my Faber Castell Albrecht Durer Watercolour Pencils to colour the flying pig image and I used my make up brushes to colour the circle in Balmy Blue. All products minus the pencils and make up brushes can be purchased through my ONLINE STORE AUSTRALIA
TIP: I embossed the All Wired Up image in gold and it gave the chicken wire image a more classy and elegant look. This in turn can be paired with any image not just farm or critter based ones.
Today I am sharing a very simple yet elegant cherry blossom card. I used the beautiful Season Layers Thinlit dies and Abstract Impressions stamp set for the 'thank you'. For the stripes I used my Simply Scored Scoring Tool. I also used the Rectangle Stitched Framelit Dies. I love the effect of self coloured cardstock as it looks more organic, and it really looks beautiful. All items can be purchased through my ONLINE STORE AUSTRALIA
Over the past weekend I participated in a crafty challenge where one of the criteria was to use a product or stamp set that we haven't used since we bought it. Pretty Kitty is one of those sets that I bought over a year ago and then never used it. It is such a shame and so wasteful, so when this challenge came up, I jumped at the chance to use it. The Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder is also a product that I have never used! I am so glad I pulled them out and used them. I used my surprise favourite colour Pineapple Punch for the card base. I am not a bright yellow kind of gal, but this looks gorgeous and I cannot stop using it! I also used my favourite Stitched Shaped Framelits and Layering Circle Framelit Dies. I think that they all worked very well together. You can purchase any of the products featured in today's tutorial at ONLINE STORE AUSTRALIA 24/7
Lately, I have been challenging myself to colour more, as it was something I was avoiding to do. I found colouring intimidating when everyone I've been following has been using alcohol markers. I don't have any of those as my budget doesn't allow for them but I do have an old set of watercolour pencils. If you colour with watercolour pencils and Stampin Up! Blender Pens you can get a very similar look to alcohol markers! I still have a lot to learn when it comes to shading etc, but I have to say I will be colouring a lot more now.
I hope you enjoyed today's tutorial. If you need any assistance or to purchase please go to my ONLINE STORE AUSTRALIA 24/7 and use the 'CONTACT ME' section and I will get back to you ASAP.
Thanks for coming past and I hope to see you again soon!
Today I am bringing to you a different kind of card. I found these cool Lawn Fawn products at a craft store. They are the Lawn Fawn Reveal Wheel dies and stamp set, and the super cute Hay There stamp set and dies. I made my own backround with a retired Stampin Up! Woodgrain backround stamp. I coloured the images with my watercolour pencils. It has been many years since I have used them so it was fun to bring them out again.
