I have this stunning birthday card to share featuring the Beautiful Butterflies bundle. This bundle includes a hybrid embossing folder, dies and a gorgeous stamp set. The embossing folder matches the dies. I’ve layered the die-cut butterfly over the embossed image. I love the effect.

How to Create a Watercolour Swatch Background

How to Create a Watercolour Swatch Background – Simple Birthday – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

This is an easy technique to create a fun background. You do need to use watercolour paper. Basic White cardstock will not stand up to the water and may pil. I’ve used Fluid 100 watercolour cardstock. This has two sides to it. I’ve used the smoother side.

The nature of watercolour cardstock means it will have a certain degree of texture. This allows the water to move on the page. You may not get a perfect impression the first time you stamp and I recommend using a stamping tool.

The Linked Together stencils are layering stencils. Five stencils layer together to create lovely backgrounds. This time, I’ve actually only used one layer. You don’t always need to use all the layers. This is a simple and stunning design and I love it. The above image is in Berry Burst and the one below is Pretty Peacock. Which do you prefer?

This is a fun way to use up your scraps. I stuck the strips at various angles to create my own patterned paper. The scraps are all from the same paper collection, so the colours match. The paper is called Toadstool Gardens. It is a freebie during sale-a-bration. I love getting freebies, don’t you?

This card is a simple design. There is a cluster of embellishments around a central sentiment. I’ve used a circle from the Spotlight on Nature dies to create my base to stamp my sentiment. I’ve kept to 3 colours for each. This allows them to have a cohesiveness. The sparkle dots give the card that sparkling finishing touch.

The Storybook Moments designer series paper (DSP) contains paper and die cuts. There are two pages of die cuts. They are perfect for scrapbooking and cardmaking. There are focal and smaller images allowing you to create a cute scene easily. I’ve paired both cards with the Timeless Plaid DSP to create two vintage birthday cards.

When I saw this stamp set, I knew I had to have it. It reminds me of the tiles in Islamic art. I love the simplicity of the set and at the same time, all the detail. I’ve only used one stamp to create this lovely border. The image above uses Blueberry Bushel and below Melon Mambo. Which do you like best?

This is a great idea to use up those scraps of paper we all have in our stash. These papers all come from the Bloom Impressions designer series paper (DSP) so they match perfectly. This paper is a freebie during sale-a-bration (SAB). For every qualifying purchase, you can choose a free item from the SAB catalogue. This was one of mine. The die-cut sentiment is from the Wanted to Say dies, a firm favourite of mine.

  • Basic White Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm.
