How to Make a Rainbow using Soft Pastels

How to Make a Rainbow using Soft Pastels – Peaceful Moments Stamp Set – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

Do any of you remember a series on Tv called Rainbow Brite. I had the doll and few other bits if I recall correctly. I think I also did a tapestry of her but not sure where that is now. Rainbows are magic to me. There is a scientific reason why they happen but to see one in the sky is magic.

In the new catalogue Stampin’ Up! brought out some soft pastels and I’ve been dying to play with them. They are beautifully soft and creamy. I blended them with water and then went over the image again with pastel to get a better blend. It is definitely a learning curve and I know I am going to have fun learning and playing more with these new colouring mediums.

Strawberries Anyone? How to Make a Fun Card?

Strawberries Anyone? How to Make a Fun Card? Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set & Punch – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

Although I am writing this blog in June it will go out in July. The beginning of July heralds Wimbledon and of course strawberries & cream. I’ve already had some delicious strawberries this year. I’m not made about cream so had iced cream instead. We have some local pick your own strawberry farms here but with just my mother and I we wouldn’t be able to eat all we would pick in time.

Make a Birthday Card with Me! Distress Style!!

Make a Birthday Card with Me! Distress Style!! – Very Versailles – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’ve always loved playing with ink and paint and enjoy mixed media art. This is my version of a mixed media card, Stampin’ Up! style. I find mixed media art so freeing as there is no mistakes, just more chances to be creative. There is right or wrong way, just what makes you happy and looks go to you. All crafting would make you happy but mixed media makes me especially happy.

How cute are these? I struggled with the design for a cute little box for ages and then made this design my mistake and decided to stick with it. The pretty paper is from the Sweet Symmetry suite and gives this project a lovely summer vibe. I did two colour ways, Just Jude and Calypso Coral. Which do you like best? Let me know in the comments below.

Embossed Resist – How to with Blending Brushes

Embossed Resist – How to with Blending Brushes – Butterfly Brilliance – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

I love anything that has a mixed-media vibe to it. So much fun to play with colours, different textures and techniques. This background started off as a plain piece of basic white cardstock, can you believe it?

I’ve combined the embossed heat resist technique and blending brushes. It creates this gorgeous card. The butterflies are all one stamp set; Butterfly Brilliance.

Tulips Make me Happy – Birthday Card

Tulips are definitely my favourite flower. I look forward to them every year. They variety of colours and shapes are amazing. Even when the flower goes over they look gorgeous, just like orchids. I have so many photos of them so I thought it was high time I made another card using them.

Happy Birthday My Sweet – Card

Happy Birthday My Sweet – Card – Sweet Strawberry – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

This is a very simple monochromatic birthday card. I am starting to use embossing folders more and more in my designs. They add great texture and interest to backgrounds. The one I used here is called Pretty Flowers and is new in the catalogue. The rhinestones really make the flowers pop. Sometimes these tiny finishing touches really make a card.

Sweet as a Peach – Gift Box for a Birthday Treat

Sweet as a Peach – Gift Box for a Birthday Treat – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

So pleased with how this came out. I used Calypso Coral cardstock. I never use this colour but oh my it looks good with this You’re a Peach designer series paper (DSP). The Pale PawPaw ribbon just finished it off perfectly. I have stored two little packets of biscuits in it for a sweet treat for someone special.

How to Make a Kid’s Pirate Birthday Card

How to Make a Kid’s Pirate Birthday Card – Pirates & Mermaids – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’m so happy with the way this has turned out. He reminds me of a children’s tv show I used to watch called “Captain Pugwash”. I think I still have some of the storybooks but not sure where. Perhaps in a box somewhere. The pirate is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend Alcohol markers. I made the rock he is standing on using the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder.
