Video : Going Retro with MFT for Scrapbook Boutique!

I’ve been wanting to use this background technique again for a while now and decided that today was the day as I have a post up at Scrapbook Boutique Blog!  I thought it would be fun to ‘Retro’ these fun owls from MFT and add a sweet combo of colours from Altenew.

You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.

Video : Altenew Stencils & Ink Sprays Release Blog Hop & Giveaway!

Lostinpaper - Altenew - Release - Ink Spray - Hibiscus Bouquet (card video) 1 copy

Altenew-Blog-Hop-2017-0309

I’m so excited to be taking part in Altenew’s 2017 March release and blog hop, and if you arrived here from the Altenew blog then you are exactly where you need to be.  Today we are releasing 7 stencils, 12 ink sprays, 13 coloured cardstocks and 7 coloured envelopes, could it be any more wonderful!

Today I have two cards and one video to share.  And if you know me, then you know I am allergic to getting ‘inky’ fingers….  wrong hobby right? lol.  But to spray…  it’s divine (it’s the ink blending that really gets under the nails and have you ever met my friend the ‘scrubbie’  it’s a great tool to get rid of inky fingers), but I digress….  these sprays didn’t get my fingers inky at all and the shimmery finish was so worth the possibility of getting inky for sure.  What a great way to ‘colour’!
Scroll down for the video and to find out how you can WIN!

I just had to share these beautiful ink colours with you……

Obviously I had to use this fabulous colour combo and couldn’t resist adding a striped umbrella to add the ‘fun’ element!  I achieved the bright colours with my Zigs and this time resisted adding water on the images (love that option with these beauties) but, the background is the same colours but mixed with water!

How cool are these transparent Nuvos…   I am seriously addicted!
