Frosted Forest – Easy Colouring with Layering Stencils

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

I am in love with layering stencils. They make gorgeous cards and are great for those who don’t like colouring. There are 3 stencils for each of the 3 trees in the stamp set. These allow you to colour the trees for Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter. The choice is yours.

Make a Gorgeous Butterfly-inspired Card

Make a Gorgeous Butterfly-inspired Card – Sketched Butterflies – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I’ve been watering the plants every few days in the garden. It is so peaceful, watching the wildlife go about their business. I love watching the butterflies flittering from flower to flower. So beautiful. This was the inspiration for this simple care. Above is a blue version of this card and below is an orange and yellow version. Which do you prefer?

Inspiring Snapdragons – Just Use the Dies – Easy Card Tutorial

Inspiring Snapdragons – Just Use the Dies – Easy Card Tutorial – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

I love it when Stampin’ Up! makes dies that can be used with the matching stamp set or entirely on their own. It increases the versatility of the set and as the saying it gives you more bang for your buck.

This is a card I designed for my cards my post club. I can’t include stamped images in my kits as per Stampin’ Up! policy so I focus on pretty papers and die cuts. This card fits the bill on both counts, wouldn’t you agree?

I made this card back in May. I was watching the Chelsea Flower Show and seeing the gorgeous flowers inspired me to make this card. This card features the new Inspiring Snapdragons stamp set. I’ve kept the colours hot and vibrant. They are next to each other on the colour wheel and look next to each other.

Sketched Butterflies – How to Watercolour with Ink Pads

Sketched Butterflies – How to Watercolour with Ink Pads – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I love butterflies and was so happy to see this new butterfly set in the catalogue. These gorgeous butterflies are watercoloured using the Stampin’ Up! ink pads. If you are going to watercolour, always remember to use suitable paper. I have used Fluid 100 watercolour paper here. Basic White won’t stand up to water as well as Fluid 100 and you are liable to get pilling of your paper.

One trick I employed here is to black heat emboss my images before I watercoloured them. This helps to keep the colour in the lines and stop it flowing everywhere.

Painted Lavender – Make a “Thinking of You” Card

I am sharing this clean and simple “Thinking of you Card”. It uses the Painted Lavender dies rather than the stamp set. The white background is embossed using the Zinnia 3D embossing folder to give some subtle interest.

We made this card in my monthly online card club that I host in my Facebook group. If you want to join the next one, you can find all the details here.

Monochrome Magic: A Panda-Themed Hand-Stamped Card

Monochrome Magic: A Panda-Themed Hand-Stamped Card – Wild & Sweet. Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

I have this simple card to share with you today. The whole image is just one stamp. It’s stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black. My idea was for the finished card to look like a pencil sketch, hence no colouring.

The black and white theme makes a striking card. The image pops from the background. I used the Deckled Rectangle dies which have a torn edge effect. This works with the pencil sketch theme of the card.

“Hope You Feel Soon” – No Stamping Card Tutorial

“Hope You Feel Soon” – No Stamping Card Tutorial – Wanted to Say Dies – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

This card has no stamping, it is all die-cutting. The gorgeous paper, Flight & Airy is a freebie from Sale-a-bration (SAB). You can choose a free item from the SAB catalogue for every qualifying purchase.

The sentiment is from a favourite die set, “Wanted to Say”. I’ve used both the shadow and the outline here to ensure the sentiment pops from the busy background.
