How to White Heat Emboss on Black Card

How to White Heat Emboss on Black Card – Happiest of Birthdays – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

This is a really simple card but so effective. I always love the magic of heat embossing. The dull powder becomes glossy and beautiful. The only real way to get the sentiment to show bright white on dark cardstock is to white heat emboss it.

I’ve matted the black on a lovely piece of patterned paper from the Sunshine & Rainbows stack. I love the bright and saturated colours.

Colour Challenge Accepted – Birthday Card

Colour Challenge Accepted – Birthday Card – Happiest of Birthdays – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

This stamp set is “Happiest of Birthdays”. I’ve used it numerous times as I love the font and of course that fact that it’s big and bold. This card was made for a colour challenge. The colours we had to use were Night of Navy, Rococo Rose and Merry Merlot. This is a great card if you are a beginner crafter as all you really need is ink, stamps and paper. They are of course some of the basic tools of cardmaking.

Simple Blending & Heat Embossing Birthday Card

Simple Blending & Heat Embossing Birthday Card – Happiest of Birthdays – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’ve been having fun playing with my new blending brushes. Initially I ordered one pack which has three brushes but recently order two more packs I now a brush for each colour in the colour wheel as well as grey and brown. I just clean them off after use on a towel and they are good to go.

I used three different blues to create this background starting with lightest, Balmy Blue, then Pacific Point and finally Night of Navy. Layering the colours always creates extra depth and interest in the background I feel.

Plaid Birthday Card – Stampin’ Up!

This plaid birthday card is super easy and simple to make. I love the colours on this project as I think the Cherry Cobbler red really pops against the kraft Crumb Cake Colour.

This card came together very quickly and is perfect for that quick birthday card on the run. As you know I love cards with these big, bold sentiments. They make for simple cards but they also really stand out.

I love designer series paper (DSP) like this one, Plaid Tidings. It so versatile, in that in can be used for all events, Christmas, Birthday, Celebrations etc… Being British, this is also a very traditional design in the UK.

I do love crafting. This last few weeks I’ve been doing quite a bit and really helps to lift my spirits. There is nothing better than giving a handmade card to someone and see their face light up in pleasure at receiving it.

Stained Glass Effect Card – Stampin’ Up!

Hello again. I’m back with another card to share with you. I’m calling this my stained glass effect card as I feel the back strips between each segment are like the black lead work on a stained glass window.

As you may know both Bermuda Bay and Coastal Cabana are favourite colours of mine. I’ve used them here together and they go rather well don’t you think? This card was inspired by a card by upline Amanda Fowler did with us in team training. I’m very pleased with how it turned out and am going to do a few more using different colour combinations. I will share them with you as well.

I use the Tombow multipurpose liquid glue to stick everything down on this card. Oh Boy!!! Did I get glue everywhere? I had it on my fingers, my craft mat, the cardstock, my silicone mat, etc…. I think you get the picture. Wet glue and me, don’t’ always get on. I have a bad habit of sticking my fingers in the glue!!!
