New product and how to use it.

On last night’s Facebook Live I showcased the new Show What You Love Suite.  While I hopefully captured some of the textures and colors in the video nothing replaces seeing it in real life.  If you would like to take a look before determining if you want to order it please contact me.  It’s worthContinue reading “New product and how to use it.”

When Stampin’ Up! Meets Vegas!

I finally have an original thought.  I don’t believe I have actually seen this idea anywhere.  I used the Fruit Basket Stamp Set with coordinating mini punches to create a slot machine card.  I am so excited that it is an original. Here is the link to view the tutorial…https://youtu.be/F5cVU4Y1iq8 And here is the photoContinue reading “When Stampin’ Up! Meets Vegas!”

Lots of cards this week.

Lots of cards are being created this week.  Lots and lots.  Why?  I am getting ready for OnStage of course.  Here is a photo of my swap. And here are the video links (sorry my internet cut out so there are two videos) on how to make it with a bonus of the stamparatus. AndContinue reading “Lots of cards this week.”

Watercolor pencils and aqua painters, oh my.

I’ve had so much fun with the alcohol markers that I don’t know if we have forgotten about other ways to color.  There are blender pens to be used with the ink pads, re-inkers, or watercolor pencils.  There are the regular stampin’ write markers.  And finally, there are the watercolor pencils with the aqua painter. Continue reading “Watercolor pencils and aqua painters, oh my.”

Paper is not just for cards.

How far have you gone to create with paper?  Besides cards, boxes, favors, and the occasional punched out flower…what else have you created? Recently one of my fellow demonstrators was part of a paper fashion show.  She created an entire dress out of paper. Here’s the link to this fabulous event…https://www.facebook.com/ilike9news/videos/10155850923151077/?t=7 Happy Crafting! With inkyContinue reading “Paper is not just for cards.”

Finishing a project.

Do you have a bunch of unfinished projects laying around?  Finish them!  Do you know how good it feels to actually finish?  I often don’t either, but I finished my card last night.  It made me want to finish more projects.  So here is the video tutorial on this card. Happy Crafting! With inky fingers,Continue reading “Finishing a project.”

Shamrocks, glitter, and luck.

As St. Paddy’s Day gets closer I am finding other stamp sets to create some luck.  Last night on Facebook Live I created two more cards with shamrocks and no official shamrock stamps.  You just have to look sideways sometimes. Here are the two cards and following is the link for the video. And hereContinue reading “Shamrocks, glitter, and luck.”

Lucky the Leprechaun has visited!

Last night’s Live I created two shamrock cards for the upcoming St. Paddy’s Day.  One was using the pear out of the mini fruit punch set.  The other was using the itty bitty heart from the cookie cutter punch.  Regardless of which you choose to create you will need some glue dots and a goodContinue reading “Lucky the Leprechaun has visited!”

Sometimes easy is what it takes.

I have done advanced cards, tutorials, classes, and more.  But sometimes keeping it simple is what it is all about.  Sometimes the card just needs to get in the mail.  Don’t always do a fancy fold.  Sometimes it’s the handwritten portion that someone will treasure.  So today I am encouraging you to keep a kitContinue reading “Sometimes easy is what it takes.”
