Isn’t this a cute little scene card. I love cards where I can build a scene like this. The Coming Home stamp set has all these lovely houses in it that are perfect for not only a Christmas card but also for a new home or welcome home card. The matching die set includes this useful snowbank / hill scene with the trees which just sets the scene perfectly

The images are all coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I added a line in a black marker to the trees and then coloured them in so they look they are covered in snow. I’ve used the light Soft Sea Foam marker to create shadows in the snow as well.

measurements

  • Thick Whisper White A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Coming Home – 14.35cm X 10cm

How to Make an Easy Christmas Ornament

How to Make an Easy Christmas Ornament – Freezin’ Friends Stamp Set – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I made one of these last year and I wanted to make more again using the fun Freezin’ Friends stamp set. The plan was to make a huge amount of these and sell them at various Christmas fairs but as you know that has fallen through the floor like a ton of bricks. I’m therefore sharing my little decorations with you.

I’ve coloured in both images with the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. The images are stamped in memento onto whisper white cardstock and then cut out. The penguin image was fussy cut out and the rabbit was die cut out with the white border. Tell me which you prefer, with the white border or without!

I did initially stamp these directly onto the MDF and coloured the images in with the Stampin’ Write Markers. THe images seemed to bleed and were very muted against the background. Stamping on Whisper White and then adhering that to the MDF works perfectly.

I have a gorgeous sleigh card to share with you today. The images are from Warm & Wonder stamp set and are coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I’ve combine more than one die set here. The stitched snowbank is from the Freezin’ Friends die set and I love it. It can be used on so many different cards.

The designer series paper is Heartwarming Hugs and it is a great simple pattern that gives interest in the background. Recently, I’ve got in to making my sentiments into banners and this card is no exception. It so easy to do and is just something different to give interest.

I love to heat emboss. It is such fun to be able to make these shiney cards. The ornaments are from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set that carried over from last year. They have a set of two matching punches making this card very quick and super simple to make with no added tools needed. I love heat embossing as a little powder goes along way so you can get not only such great value for you money but the chance to create this magic over and over again.

The sentiment is from Itty Bitty Christmas. This is a great Christmas sentiment stamp set and I just want to give it a big shout out as it will become a staple in your Christmas cardmaking.

I absolutely love the Snowflake Splendour suite of products from Stampin’ Up! The paper especially is just so pretty. This card is from my recent card club which was based on the Snowflake Splendour suite of products. You can details of it here.

I used one of the dies to cut out this intricate snowflake shape and paired it with a sentiment for a simple and easy card. The variations of all the blues is just stunning and it really needs very little doing to it. The blue adhesive backed gems just give it that extra touch of bling.

I’m so impressed with how this card turned out. I love the red poinsettias. They are gorgeous. We always have one each year. My mother has actually managed to keep one a live for a few years now and each year the leaves turn red in the winter.

The poinsettia is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I actually used both Cherry Cobbler and Real red, graduating from lightest to darkest to get all the shading I wanted. I did the same with the leave using both Mossy Meadow and Old Olive. This I felt gave better depth and definition to the images. I layered up 3 different sizes of poinsettia leaves to get the 3D effect that you see here.

Easy Watercolouring with Pencils – Tips & Tricks

Easy Watercolouring with pencils – Tips & Tricks – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I have always loved to paint. The mixing and flowing of colours fascinate me. I dabbled in watercolour painting before I started papercraft and haven’t lost the love. If you are new to watercolouring then pencils make for such as easy entry to the medium. We all played with colouring pencils as kids. You are just colouring as you did as a child.

The video below goes through a few tips for easy water colouring including, what paper to use, how to lay down colour and how to blend it. The phrase is that practice makes perfect and that is certainly true here. The more you practise the less scary it becomes and the more you will enjoy it. Don’t be afraid to try, there is no one watching and you can as many mistakes as you like. We all make mistakes, that is how we learn.

measurements

  • Night of Navy A6 cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper – 14.35cm X 10cm
  • Real Red cut to 0.5cm bigger than your shimmer white piece each way.
  • Shimmery White – cut down as you wish to capture your image.

How to make a Heat Embossed Christmas Card – Christmas Means More – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

I love this sentiment from the Christmas Means More stamp set. It’s bold, easy to use and what’s more it really says how a lot of us are feeling this year. Here in England we are in lockdown again and I think whatever happens Christmas will be special this year.

I’ve heat embossed the sentiment using gold embossing powder and paired it with the Tis the Season designer series paper (DSP). It makes for a simple but stunning Christmas card. I love heat embossing. It is still magic to see this dull powder turn into some glossy and pretty.

  • Thick Whisper White A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Tis the Season DSP – 14.35cm X 10cm
