It was obvious that I was inspired by the beautiful pinks, but I also thought it would be fun to add some gold bokeh dots….   with lots of MFT cuteness happening here!

Video : How to Use a Large Sentiment on a CAS design!

I adore this fab sentiment set from Penny Black but sometimes I can really struggle to make the ‘larger’ style sentiments work on a clean & simple design.  So today I thought I would share with you a fun way to use them, and have filmed the process so you can watch.

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

Lostinpaper - Penny Black - Birthday Love - Kisses for my Sweet (card video) 1

The focus is really the sentiment so I decided to keep the colouring very simple and subtle.

Video : MISTI Creative Corners – Stamping a Background with Scrapbook Boutique!

I’m back with another video using the MISTI Creative Corners and this time I decided to stamp a repeated sentiment background….  but with the help of the ‘Corners’ I was able to do this on an angle, love it!

Seriously this three day hop has been so wonderful, how can you not be inspired!  If you arrived here from Laura Bassen’s blog (Love!) then you are in exactly the right place (if not, then you best start here at the Altenew blog so that you don’t miss out on anything).

**********************

For my first card I chose to use the Beautiful Day stamp set and these flowers make me sooo happy….   swoon, honestly one of my most fave flower sets ever, thank you Altenew!  I added an embossed sentiment from the Sohcahtoa set, which is another ‘well loved’ set for me.  I actually made this card for the hop and then thought I might as well make it again and film as I created so that you could watch the process.

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

And I couldn’t stop at one card so I decided to use one of the new mini stamp sets.  This is the Peach Tree and it has all the wonderful layered stamp goodness of Altenew.  I kept it fairly CAS and Prismacolor penciled in some backgrounds to create a masculine design.

Video : Watercolour Wishing – Colour with ‘U’

Today I felt like colouring with my Inktense pencils, Mr Mojo has been long gone and I’ve cleaned and tidied as much as I want of my room, so I finally sat down to colour.  It’s been a while since I’ve had a chance to colour this Purple Onion Designs image and she really is soo sweet.  I kept the card real clean & simple, added some sparkle and called it done.  I decided to film as I created so you could watch the process.

Video : Altenew monochromatic (almost) bird – By Request

Today I have a video for Scrapbook Boutique and I had some requests to show how I made this card HERE , so I’m using some different products but basically getting the same look.  I thought it would also be a nice idea to change up the colour of the bird,maybe a teal green / blue or even a green would look nice, what do you think?
