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

Painted Lavender – Make a “Thinking of You” Card – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

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.

Loveliest Tree – Easy Sunset Blended Background Card

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.

How I Made this Rainbow Cloud – Thinking of You Card

How I Made this Rainbow Cloud – Thinking of You Card – Warm Welcome – Quiet Meadow – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – UK

I was proud of this idea of a rainbow bridge made using the cloud punch. The highlights on the clouds are made using a white gel pen. The little kitty sitting under the bridge waiting for his owner is coloured using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers.

It is always difficult making cards such as these but I hope this would bring comfort.

The rainbow bridge is a pastel rainbow and my colours are:

Petal Pink
Calypso Coral
Lemon Lolly
Soft Sea Foam
Balmy Blue
Highland Heather

Who Wouldn’t Love a Basket of Craft Gifts?

Who Wouldn’t Love a Basket of Craft Gifts? – Cheerful Basket – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I was thinking of RAKs when I made this card. When I first got into crafting I had no idea what a RAK was. Then I found out it means “Random Act of Kindness”. So sweet!! I have some goodies this year for a few RAKs and giveaways. Stay tuned to my blog and Facebook group for all the information.

The colouring on this card was super quick using the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. I love how easy they are to blend and they also give me great results.
