I love the new in-colour, Orchid Oasis. It’s beautiful!! This card was created using second and first-generation stamping. It creates this lovely tonal variation in colour in the background. The hydrangea is heat embossed in white embossing powder so that it pops from the background.

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.

measurements

  • Real Red Cardstock – A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Basic White – 14.35cm X 10cm. I cut this pannel down when I’ve made the card.

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.

How cute is this little box? I’ve made it a few times and always love how easy it is to construct. This is my Valentine’s version using the Sweet Talk designer series paper (DSP) from the new catalogue. The trick to making sure everything folds together easily is to round the corners of the flaps on the bottom and top closures.

There is an easy reference template below alongside the video tutorial. Do check it out and then share your creations in my Facebook group.

I just love how good this bag looks. It has sturdy handles as they are made out of two layers of cardstock. The bag is really simple to make but it really looks lovely. A beautiful bag to house a special gift for someone that makes your heart leap.

The Sweet Talk paper is divine. Yes, it is aimed at Valentine’s Day but I do remember that love is not just for Valentine’s Day. You can give a gift to someone you love at any time of the year. You don’t need a special occasion.

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.

How cute are these? Oh my, if the snails in my garden were this cute I would invite them all to stay. One of these snails are fussy cut and one is cut with the dies, both from the designer series paper (DSP). I love the cute little toadstools. These are cut out of Real Red cardstock and then I added some white to give them this cute look.

The little heart between the two snails just as that lovely extra cute effect. The strip of Real Red is actually ribbon and gives these two snails somewhere to sit rather just floating around.
