How to Create a Stunning Christmas Card – Artful Amaryllis – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I love the bright and vibrant colours of this card. I’ve used Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry to create this gorgeous blended background. They work well together, do you agree? The emboss resist technique makes this focal image pop.

Reindeer Fun – How I Made This Christmas Card

Reindeer Fun – How I Made This Christmas Card – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

Scene cards are one of my favourite types of cards to create. This mother deer and her baby are sweet and perfect for a focal image for any Christmas card. I made the snowbank the old-fashioned way with my scissors. The purpose was to show you don’t always need dies to cut everything.

The mother and baby deer are coloured using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I only used two colours, Crumb Cake and Petal Pink. Crumb Cake is my favourite shade of brown for animals.

Falling Snow – How To Do It – Emboss Resist Technique

Falling Snow – How To Do It – Emboss Resist Technique – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I love the simplicity of this Christmas Card. The main star of the card is the Falling Snow background stamp. I’ve white heat embossed it on Azure Afternoon cardstock and then ink blended in the same colour over the top. The white heat-embossed areas resist the ink and stay bright white. Such a gorgeous effect.

I know other people call this technique the slice and shuffle but for me it is cut and shuffle. You need 3 different pattern papers that complement each other and have the same measurements. In the video below I show you how to cut the paper and shuffle it to create potentially 3 different cards.

Easy Christmas Card – How to Heat Emboss with Stampin’ Up! Inks – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

Many times we forget that we can clear heat emboss with any of the 50 colours of Stampin’ Up! ink. You don’t need to have tons of different powders, just one will do the trick. The stamp set is More Wishes, a firm favourite of mine. I’ve used Cherry Cobbler ink above and Misty Moonlight below. Which looks best to you?

How to Use the Charming Duck Pond to Create a Scene Card

How to Use the Charming Duck Pond to Create a Scene Card – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I loved this stamp set the minute I saw it in the catalogue. The coordinating Lilly Pond Lane designer series paper (DSP) makes this scene easy to create. I used the Deckled Rectangle dies as a window into my scene. The story I told myself when making this card was the one duck wishing the other a happy birthday.

The sentiment is white heat embossed on the DSP. You can see it but it doesn’t detract from the ducks.

Technique – How to Heat Emboss on Patterned Paper

Technique – How to Heat Emboss on Patterned Paper – Easy Card Tutorial – Thanking You – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo

I am great fan of big, bold sentiments. When I saw this one in the catalogue, I just knew I had to have it. Initially, I was going to do something completely different with this card. After watching a fellow demo use the Full of Life designer series paper (DSP) I knew I wanted to use it with this sentiment and this card was born.

The sentiment is white heat embossed. You can use a white pigment ink but you won’t get as strong a white as you do with heat embossing. I love how the white pops against the rainbow DSP. We tend to forget that we can emobss on patterned paper just as well as on cardstock. The results are amazing, Go ahead and try it yourself.

Bunny “Singing in the Rain” Friendship Card

Bunny “Singing in the Rain” Friendship Card – Playing in the Rain – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demo – UK

I love this bunny singing in the rain. The story I told myself, was that he was the bunny version of Gene Kelly. So cute!! This card showcases several techniques including colouring with Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers, heat embossing and emboss resist.

The background stamp set is the Drizzling Droplets stamp. It is an online exclusive. When I first saw it I knew I wanted to use it with this bunny from Playing in the Rain. I love background stamps. Do you?

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.

Botanical Beauty – How to do the Emboss Resist Technique

Botanical Beauty – How to do the Emboss Resist Technique – Biggest Wishes – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

This card was made using the emboss resist technique. I heat-embossed a piece of white cardstock with clear embossing powder. Then, a layer of ink was applied over the top using blending brushes. The embossed areas will resist the ink leaving this lovely effect.

I have made this card in two different colour ways. The above is Coastal Cabana, Pool Pary and Lost Lagoon, below is Berry Burst and Bubble Bath. Which version do you prefer? Let me know in the comments below.
