Video Tutorial: Baby Wipe Butterfly Card

 

Hello friends!

I hope you are all well today!  For today's video I have played around with an old technique... it's called the Baby Wipe Technique and its super easy!  Ive also used quite a few of our retiring products on this card... some of the colours, for example. And the Sentiment is from our Good Morning Magnolia stamp set - also retiring. 

If you haven't already checked out the Retiring product list, you'll want to get over there and do it! There are some fabulous bargains and things are selling out quickly!  HERE is the link to the store.

Video Tutorial - Smooshed Re-Inker Resist Background Technique

 

Hello Friends!  Today I wanted to show you are super fun background technique.  I actually created this card last Friday night on my Private Facebook group... and the response there and on my other social media has been huge!  So I have been requested many times to create a video tutorial for this card... and so here it is!  The link is below. 

The reason I created this card in the first place is simple.... I was wanting to use some of our Retiring Incolors.  Each and every year, people are sad when they miss out on the retiring colours... particularly the re-inkers.  They are always amongst the first items to sell out.  And so if you have the inks for any of these colours.... please do yourself a big favour and order them NOW.  Dont wait until they are on the retiring list on Thursday 25th March!  Get them now even if you choose something that is currently backordered. At least you will be able to get it... and that will complete your collection and allow you to keep stamping with these colours for years to come. 

You'll find these colours (on this card I have used Pretty Peacock and Seaside Spray) in the Online Store... head over there to grab them while you can!

Click the picture below to view the video and I really hope you'll give this technique a go!

Video Tutorial - Taking the Emboss Resist Technique to the next Level!

 

Today I created a YouTube tutorial that further explores one of my all-time favourite techniques..... emboss resist!  To see how I made this lovely one-layer card click the picture below for the YouTube tutorial.  

I used the gorgeous Butterfly Brilliance stamp set for this creation and I think it worked beautifully.  Dont forget the Butterfly Brilliance bundle is available now... click the SHOP NOW button if you are in Australia and would like to go shopping! 

Video Tutorial: Emboss Resist with White Ink

 

Hello friends!

Today I am popping in to share a live video I did on YouTube last night. I go live on my YouTube channel every Sunday night (Sydney time) and last night I was playing around with Blending Brushes and white ink.  One of the two cards I made is shown above.... I think it turned out really soft and pretty.   The stamp set I used is called "Dragonfly Garden" and it also has a matching punch! 

You can click the picture below to view the video.... Enjoy!

FREE Online Class - your gift when you purchase the Butterfly Brilliance bundle

 Hey Friends!  

I love a good freebie, don't you??   This month I have something really cool for you.  Stampin'Up have just released the Butterfly Brilliance collection... and it is pretty much as the name suggests: lots of gorgeous butterflies in stamps, dies and papers for you to create pretty much anything!  I love butterflies... they work for so many different kinds of occasions and there are just so many different techniques that you can do with them!  In my last post I posted a YouTube tutorial to introduce this gorgeous bundle to you so definitely check that one out if you would like to see the whole suite!  Here's a pic of what is in the entire collection:

Of course you can pick and choose which items you wish to purchase.... for example the DSP is only $20 and its divine!  The Natural Touch woodgrain paper is 2 12" x 12" sheets, and its only $8.75. You can purchase the stamps and dies separately if you wish, but if you buy the bundle (stamps and dies together) the price is $96.25 (10% off!). 

OR you can buy the entire collection of all 4 products for $125.  

This month only I am also offering a free Online class for anyone who buys the bundle (stamps and dies) or the collection.  You will need the stamps and dies to do the class.  But the awesome thing about Online classes is that I send you all the paper and embellishment supplies needed to do the class... and you can do the projects at a time to suit you.  There's also a video tutorial to take you through the projects, step by step.  I've had fabulous feedback from people who have done the classes.... they love them!  

Here's a sneak peek of the cards in this class: 

And here's a list of recommended items that you will need to have:

Die Cutting machine to use with the dies

Inks - Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, Pool Party. (Or use similar colours if you have them. Black can also be a good substitute on some of the cards)

Adhesives - Mini Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Seal or Tombow adhesive

Scissors - for ribbon and for paper

Optional - Banners Pick a Punch (or you can use scissors if you dont have this)

Other - Blending Brushes or sponge/sponge daubers

I'll be sending out the first round of supply kits by the end of this week, and the video tutorial around the same time.  If you have already purchased the Butterfly Brilliance bundle from me you will automatically receive the class. 

If you have questions, please ask! 

I hope you love this class AND this beautiful bundle of products!
