I created this decorative flap using the Around the Bend Dies. I used the scallop border die to cut the cardbase itself. Then, I used this decorative border die with Basic White cardstock to create this lacy pattern. I love the effect.

The flowers are fussy cut from the Delightfully Eclectic designer series paper (DSP). I added some gold sequins to give the flower centres some sparkle.

This card was made using the emboss resist technique. I heat-embossed a piece of white cardstock with clear embossing powder. Then, a layer of ink was applied over the top using blending brushes. The embossed areas will resist the ink leaving this lovely effect.

I have made this card in two different colour ways. The above is Coastal Cabana, Pool Pary and Lost Lagoon, below is Berry Burst and Bubble Bath. Which version do you prefer? Let me know in the comments below.

I love to make rainbow cards. This card features the Country Corners bundle. I stamped these frames six times and of course die cut them six times. This made enough frames for, you guessed it, six cards.

My favourite rainbow card colours are listed and linked in the supply list below. I love bold and bright colours but you could equally choose a pastel palette.

I have this tonal birthday card to share with you today. You can colour the fairy cake but I kept this as just a simple line image. I adore the Perennial Lavender paper, so pretty. This is an easy card to make in bulk or you can step it up with more embellishments.

I normally stamp and then punch but this time I did it the other way around. It helped centre the fairy cake and florals.

This is an easy design to replicate. I’ve cut out three small panels from the Fresh as a Daisy designer series paper (DSP) using the Deckled Rectangle dies. I added a few die cuts from the Around The Bend dies and the card was finished.

All the die cuts were cut from Basic White cardstock. I coloured the two flowers with ink to match the card base which is Moody Mauve in colour.

How to Use Stampin’ Up! Ink Pads for Heat Embossing – Phrases for All – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo

Quite often, I find people forget that they can use the Stampin’ Up! ink pads for heat embossing. The pads are juicy and therefore, stay wet long enough for embossing. You do have to work quickly but it is easy to do. The colour I’ve used here is Pretty Peacock with the Phrases for All stamp set. You can’t see the embossing in the photo above but it is clear in the video below.
