How to Use the Dahlias Days Stamp Set – Thank You

How to Use the Dahlias Days Stamp Set – Thank You – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

The colours I’ve used here are Tahitian Tide (blue) and Sweet Sorbet. I love blue and red/pink together. They really make each other pop. Everything is hand stamped. I love stamping my own backgrounds as you can tailor them to exactly our own tastes.

Make the Best of Your Scraps – Using Strips

Make the Best of Your Scraps – Using Strips – Peaceful Moments – Focus Friday – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin Up Demo – Lincoln UK

I’m back today with another Focus Friday card. During the month of June, I’m looking at different ways to use our designer series paper (DSP). Today I used scraps to create these cards. These are small strips that would otherwise go unused and stay in my stash forever.

I pulled the card together with a heat embossed sentiment from Peaceful Moments. I heat embossed the cardstock mat so that everything would match.

Wild & Sweet. Make this Cute Koala Card with Me

Wild & Sweet. Make this Cute Koala Card with Me – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

Isn’t this little koala the cutest? I love him just hanging out in the tree. As you may remember my maternal family are from South Africa. Some of that family have left South Africa to go to Australia. I was thinking of them as I made this card.

I coloured this koala using watercolour pencils and a blender pen. This makes for super quick and easy colouring.

Making the Most of Your Patterned Paper – Die Cuts

Making the Most of Your Patterned Paper – Die Cuts – Hugs of Happiness – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – Lincoln UK.

Welcome to this Focus Friday post. For the month of May we are looking at using designer series paper (DSP) in different ways. Today I am using the gorgeous Hugs of Happiness DSP to make lots of die cuts to use on my card. They are the focal image for this floral birthday card.

The Hugs of Happiness DSP is simply gorgeous. I absolutely love it!! I’m already planning to my a second pack. Paper-like this is so useful. You can fussy cut these florals if you want but the dies that match the stamp set also cut out the flowers in this DSP. Super useful!! It really stretches this paper and gives you a ton of die cuts.

Using Doilies to Add Extra Layers to Your Card

Using Doilies to Add Extra Layers to Your Card – Heart & Home – Biggest Wish – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I was so glad this stamp set didn’t retire this year. I love all the big bold sentiments. They are my cup of tea. This is a very simple card but I’ve added interest with the doily. These are the Heart & Home doilies. They actually come in blue, green & brown. I wanted white though so I used the backside instead!!

Use All the Colours – Make a Rainbow Card With Me – Best Delivery – Dragonflies – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – UK

I’m back with another Friday Focus post. In May we have been looking at using colour in our cards. Today I am using all the colours in the rainbow here. I love making rainbow cards. They are vibrant, bold and such fun. These cute little dragonflies really pop.

I couldn’t resist doodling a little with a white gel pen to add highlights to the dragonflies. The rhinestones are the perfect finishing touch.

My First Time – Making a Slimline Card – UK Sizing

My First Time – Making a Slimline Card – UK Sizing – Best Delivery – Stampin’ Blend Alcohol Markers – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo

I love how this card turned out. This is the first time I’ve made a slimline card like this. I have made some mini slimline cards but never a one this size. The card will fit perfectly into a standard DL size envelope here in the UK.

The Best Delivery stamp set is so cute. I have balloons coming out the back but you could equally have hearts coming out. So dinky. I coloured the image using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. One of my favourite colouring mediums. I was thinking of a Royal Mail van when I coloured in this image. The Real Red and white really do pop against each other.

Dahlia Days – How to Make a Floral Thank You Card

Dahlia Days – How to Make a Floral Thank You Card – Detailed Dahlia Dies – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – Lincoln UK.

I’ve had these doilies sitting in my stash for the best part of the year and never used them. That had to change, so I designed this card to start using them. I’m really pleased with how it turned out.

The Fresh Freesia layer at the back is all one die cut. It cuts beautifully and comes out of the die like a dream. I used the die brush attachment and the Take Your Pick Tool to get rid of all the little bits.
