Frosted Forest – Layering Stencils – Easy Birthday Card – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I love layering stencils. I have every set that Stampin’ Up! has brought out. They are amazing. They make colouring these lovely images a doddle. You can use all the layers or just some of the layers to customise the colouring to your taste. Do you love them too? Check out the video below for the full tutorial on how to use these.

Make an Autumnal Style Card with Me Today – Autumn Expressions – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I’ve wanted to use this frame from the Autumn Expressions die set with the Gold Foil sheet since I saw it in the catalogue. It looks so good and adds a touch of elegance to this card. This card uses only 1 sheet of 6″ X 6″ Splendid Autumn designer series paper (DSP). We made this in a recent card club and everyone loved it.

How to Use A White Pen to Add Detail to a Stenciled Image

How to Use A White Pen to Add Detail to a Stenciled Image – Enduring Beauty – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I love stamp sets that have matching dies and stencils. They make creating beautiful cards a breeze. As a mixed media artist, I do love all the finishing details and one of them is using a white pen. I’ve used it here to highlight the flower centres and petals. The images pop. Do you agree?

My tip is to ensure your ink is totally dry, not just touch dry. Your pen will work much better. I gave the image a blast from my heat tool to ensure it was dry.

Adventurous Sky – How to Make a Fun Shaker Card

Adventurous Sky – How to Make a Fun Shaker Card -Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK

I love the pop of red sequins in this card. It brings the whole card to life. Full disclosure, these sequins are from my stash and not Stampin’ Up! I have a huge stash of sequins and am on a mission to use them up. Are you trying to use anything up?

Shaker cards are fun interactive cards. The trick is to use good-quality foam strips and acetate that won’t tear easily. In the YouTube tutorial, I show how I used the scrap from my shaker window to back my shaker pocket. I love it when I can use up all the scraps, don’t you?

How to Use the Charming Duck Pond to Create a Scene Card

How to Use the Charming Duck Pond to Create a Scene Card – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I loved this stamp set the minute I saw it in the catalogue. The coordinating Lilly Pond Lane designer series paper (DSP) makes this scene easy to create. I used the Deckled Rectangle dies as a window into my scene. The story I told myself when making this card was the one duck wishing the other a happy birthday.

The sentiment is white heat embossed on the DSP. You can see it but it doesn’t detract from the ducks.

Simple Summery Birthday Card Tutorial – Bee Mine

Simple Summery Birthday Card Tutorial – Bee Mine – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I love how this card turned out. It screams summer to me. The cheeky expression on the bee is cute. The Bee Mine stamp set has a variety of different expressions you can use on the face of the bee or any critter for that matter. The stamp set pairs beautifully with the Full of Live designer series paper (DSP). I’ve used both sides of the sheet in this card so there is no waste.
