Simple Colouring with Alcohol Markers

Simple Colouring with Alcohol Markers – Stampin’ Blends – Blessings of Home – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

If you follow my posts you will know I love to colour and paint. I find it so theraputic. It makes me happy. This lovely image is all one stamp from the new Blessings at Home set. It stamps beautifully and is so easy to colour. I’ve used the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers here as they make blending so easy.

If you are worried about colouring don’t be. Just start playing. Learn from any mistakes you may. Take you time and be easy on yourself. I colour from light to dark but you could equally go the other way. One trick is less is more. It is easy to add more colour but much more difficult to take it away. Just enjoy the process and of course have fun.

See Me Use my Free Stamp Set. Catching Butterflies

See Me Use my Free Stamp Set. Catching Butterflies – Stampin’ Blend Alcohol Markers – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

This is one of the gorgeous stamp sets I got free during Sale-a-bration (SAB). I love it. Such a simple design and perfect for little girl cards this Spring. What is SAB you may ask? SAB is a promotion currently running with Stampin’ Up! where you can get free stamp sets with any purchase over £45.00. Too good to miss out!

I’ve used the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers to colour this scene in. I limited the colour palette to Reds, Oranges and Yellows to keep the card vibrant and bright. As you know I love colouring so I just relaxed and enjoyed myself colouring this card.

How to Print using an Embossing Folder

How to Print using an Embossing Folder – Focus Friday – Biggest Wish – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

This is a very simple card. I’ve used the complementary colours of Blue (Misty Moonlight) and Orange (Pumpkin Pie). These colours will pop next to each other as they are opposite each other in the colour wheel.

This is the second project in the Focus Friday – Embossing Folder series. This week we are looking at how to print using embossing folders. I’ve used the Checks & Dots embossing folder to create this lovely background. I used a brayer to ink my embossing folder. Check out the video below for more details. It’s such a fun technique.

Let’s Have Otter Fun – Simple Colouring – Card Tutorial

Let’s Have Otter Fun – Simple Colouring – Card Tutorial – Awesome Otter – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK

Isn’t this little fellow cute? I love him!! Such a simple card but so pretty. I’ve coloured the otter using just two colours of Stampin’ Blend Alcohol Markers; Balmy Blue and Crumb Cake. There is no sentiment on this card on purpose so it can be used for whatever occasion you chose. Sometimes it’s good to have cards that can fit multiple purposes.

Check Out Focus Friday – Embossing Folders

Check Out Focus Friday – Embossing Folders – Ornate Floral – In Bloom – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK

I hope this finds you well. This year I’ve decided to shake things on my blog. I will still post three times a week as normal, so don’t worry. Today I introduce to you my first offering in a new series called “Focus Friday”. Let me explain.

Each month this year we will be focusing on a different tool or product. Each Friday we will try out a different technique with that product or tool. For January I have chosen embossing folders. Each Friday this month we will make a card using an embossing folder in a different way.

Today we are using the embossing folder in the most simple way to add interest to the background. I’ve paired it with a gorgeous floral frame from the Eden dies and a simple sentiment.

Make a Vintage Style Card with Ink Blending

Make a Vintage Style Card with Ink Blending – Eden’s Garden – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK

This card has a lovely vintage feel to it. Can’t believe it started out as plain Sahara Sand Cardstock. I used the same colour, Crumb Cake which is just a shade darker than Sahara Sand to do all the stamping and blending. It gives it a cohesive look. I kept the blending dark on the edges to give a border and make the centre pop.

A Beautiful Day to Love – Blessings of Home

A Beautiful Day to Love – Blessings of Home – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

Happy New Year everyone!! I hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year. I took a break in blogging between Christmas and New Year but I’m back now. Here is my first project of the year and I hope you like it.

I love how the clean and simple looks of this card. There is lots of white space and that is nothing to be afraid of. The sentiment is nestled in the foliage with jewels and rhinestone giving it some extra bling.

The sentiment on this card is lovely. Any day is a beautiful day to love. Showing kindness and love in small ways is something we should try and do each day. The smallest act of love can make such a difference to someone else.

Fast and Easy Christmas Bag – No Cutting Required

Fast and Easy Christmas Bag – No Cutting Required – Painted Christmas – Merriest Moments – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I’ve made this bag a number of times. It is a great one to make as requires no cutting and minimal scoring. You can make them in a great number easily in many sizes. They store flat until you want to use them and string the ribbon through them. What more could you want from a gift bag?

The tag is hand stamped using the Merriest Moments stamp set. You can see me make a similar oversize tag on the previous blog post.

Make Your Own Oversized Christmas Tag

Make Your Own Oversized Christmas Tag – Merriest Moments – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I love this tag, it is a card and tag all in one. It is totally hand-stamped and uses no designer series paper (DSP). This means I can tailor the colours and design to my personal preference. I’ve used the gilded gems in places to give it that necessary bling for Christmas. The combination of Shaded Spruce (green) and Cherry Cobbler really works for me. They are traditional Christmas colours but still look fresh and vibrant together.
