Video: Neat & Tangled Guest Designer – Floral Hearts : Two Ways!
Today I have two more cards using some fun products from Neat & Tangled, this is my last post as Guest Designer… I can’t believe how quickly this month has flown by.
My focus today is the Floral Heart stamp set and matching die and the video is a little longer than usual as I filmed both cards, almost in production line style.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5bHTEt5vM0]
I had to use the Awesome die again, but this time I made it all gold and shiny!
For the remaining sentiments I used the My Favorite Nut stamp set.
I love that the Floral Heart die can be separated, what a genius idea!
I would just like to say a big Thank You to Neat & Tangled I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as Guest Designer this month!

Video : Colour with ‘U’ – Penny Black Copic Hedgehog!
Today I have a very clean and simple design to share. I used one of the cute Penny Black hedgehogs to sit on top of a sentiment that was discarded from a previous card…. and I didn’t want to put it aside because you already know that I would never use it, so while I’m motivated I’m using it!

Video : Altenew Build-A-Flower: Magnolia Release!
This month Altenew is introducing Build-A-Flower: Magnolia. On the 15th of every month a new flower set is released and each set offers a 6×8 stamp set with a coordinating die so you can easily create your projects (it is only available as a set, not as individual products). Isn’t this Magnolia beautiful!

I decided to stamp out the word ‘you’ with the Calligraphy Alpha stamp set, one of the easiest alpha sets I’ve ever used (it’s so so easy to line up the letters, I love it)!
I can’t wait to play with the Magnolia Build-A-Flower set some more, I have heaps of ideas and know that you will also be inspired by the other designs, as well as the chance to WIN at the Altenew Blog!

Video : Colour with ‘U’ – Using a Coloured Image!
Today I am back to Colour with ‘U’ and it’s all about watercolouring with a ‘coloured’ image. My ‘go to’ stamping colour for outlines is black and today I thought I would have some fun changing it up a little. I have filmed the card today and

These ballerinas are so sweet, and I know it’s a bit cliche, but I just had to colour them in pink (just to get it out of my system… next time I’ll try different colours, I promise)
Thanks for stopping by today, I really enjoyed creating this card and look forward to sharing more with you real soon. Hugs,

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.
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xv8Vf5zgMY]
The focus is really the sentiment so I decided to keep the colouring very simple and subtle.
Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit, I promise to be back real soon with another card to share!
Other Supplies: Copic markers – 0 / R00 / B0000,000 / C0,1 / T0,2 / W00.0,2 / E000,50.
