How to Use the Flowering Tulips Stamp Set

How to Use the Flowering Tulips Stamp Set – Tulip Dies – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

As I have said ad infinitum my favourite flowers are tulips. I love them. This bunch of tulips makes me so happy. I’ve made it into a mother’s day card as mother’s day is on 27th March here in the UK. The Flowering of Tulips stamp set is a two-step stamp set. I used the stamparatus to stamp it and made the stamping so easy.

Pansy Petals * Love Hearts * Gift Box

Pansy Petals * Love Hearts * Gift Box – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

This little box holds four little love hearts. What a dinky little gift. I have a little box of sweets and chocolates in my craft room that I keep specifically to use for craft projects. This box is designed to fit these sweets. I have tons of the Pansy Petals designer series paper (DSP) which I am trying to use up. It’s way too pretty not to use.

How to Use Layering Stencils – Focus Friday

How to Use Layering Stencils – Focus Friday – Butterflies & Flowers Stencil – Best Delivery – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

Welcome to Focus Friday. For the month of March, we are focusing on stencils. Today we are looking at layering stencils. Layering stencils allow you to build up detail, depth and texture to an image. I’ve used the butterfly image here from the Butterflies & Flowers stencil pack. You can use more than two colours if you wish but I would advise you to start with two and build it up from there.

Make an Easy Ladybird Birthday Card

Make an Easy Ladybird Birthday Card – Hello Ladybug – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – Lincoln UK

Look at these adorable ladybirds. I found out that in North America they say Ladbug but we in the UK of course say Ladybird. It really is amazing how many differences they are between proper English and American English.

The Hello Ladybug stamp set comes with a matching punch which I haven’t used here. This is just the same stamp repeat stamped. It is a two step stamping set and really easy to line by hand. I didn’t use the stamparatus and these ladybirds came out great.

Just to Say You Are Amazing – Awesome Otters

Just to Say You Are Amazing – Awesome Otters – Focus Friday – Watercolour Pencils – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – Lincoln UK

Welcome to the last Focus Friday blog of February. This week we are looking at using watercolour pencils with water painters to colour. As you remember this month our focus has been on colouring. We have looked at colouring with alcohol markers, watercolour pencils and blender pens and watercolouring with ink pads.

Watercolouring is a very forgiving medium. I’ve used the shimmery white paper here to withstand all the water. The pencils give you a lot of control and you can add as much or as little water as you choose.

How to White Heat Emboss on Black Card

How to White Heat Emboss on Black Card – Happiest of Birthdays – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

This is a really simple card but so effective. I always love the magic of heat embossing. The dull powder becomes glossy and beautiful. The only real way to get the sentiment to show bright white on dark cardstock is to white heat emboss it.

I’ve matted the black on a lovely piece of patterned paper from the Sunshine & Rainbows stack. I love the bright and saturated colours.

Make a Card to Say Hello to a Friend

Make a Card to Say Hello to a Friend – Friendly Hello – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln, UK.

Bermuda Bay and Coastal Cabana are two of my favourite colours. They go so well together alongside Pool Party. I’ve kept this card in those tones and love the outcome.

I myself love to watch crafting videos on YouTube. Normally I would just add my sentiment to this background without much embellishment. I’m trying to move out of my comfort zone. I’ve used two punches, the spring and the bough punch to create these embellishments in coordinating colours.

Daffodils How to Water Colour with Ink Pads

Daffodils How to Water Colour with Ink Pads – Daffodil Daydream – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

This month, the Focus Friday videos have been concentrating on colouring. Today we are looking a colouring with ink pads and water painters. You can also use a reinker. I tend to add a dot of reinker to the lid of the ink pads. I pick this colour up with my water painter. Don’t touch your brush to the actual ink pad though.

Am important consideration when watercolouring is what paper to use. I use either shimmer white cardstock or our Fluid 100 watercolour paper. If you use Basic White you will find the paper will pill. You need a paper that will stand up to the amount of water you will be using. Watercolour paper will have a texture to it so it is useful to use the Stamparatus get to a crisp clean image. I used Stazon ink to stamp as it’s permanent.
