Merry Christmas with Tattered Lace die on embossing with Tonic nuvo shimmer powders Sun 10 Feb 19

Hi again all my lovely loyal followers (if I have any lol).

Today I've used a large die to make a quick Christmas card.  If you've already created loads of backgrounds with your Tonic Nuvo Shimmer powders like me it really is quick.  My background was created by embossing large Justrite background stamps in gold and silver powders.  Then I


added my Tonic Nuvo Powders, I sprayed with water and watched the magic happen!  Once dry I ran it through my Gemini with the Tattered lace die, added a card base and some snowflakes and gems and that was it done.

I still achieved a beautiful card without too much effort, and I love the distressed way the embossing looks once you've die cut it.


Card base is 11 1/2 x 4 1/8 scored at 5 3/4

Items Used
Black card
Bermuda Bay card Stampin Up
Tattered Lace Merry Christmas Background die
Justrite background stamp Damask Wallpaper
Heartfelt Creations background stamp Burnished Key Precut set
Tonic Nuvo Shimmer Powders in Cherry Bomb, Atlantis burst, Catherine Wheel and Green Parade

As always I do hope you like.

Sea themed double slider card using Lawn Fawn dies Fri Jan 18

Hey again craft land,

Today I've made a double slider card using Lawn Fawn dies. The backgrounds are made with Tonic Nuvo Shimmer Powders in greens and blues and Brushos in the same colours.

The stamp set is really old and some of them don't stamp right (I really need some new ones) but I got enough images that did.  I'm gonna be making a few interactive cards as I heard MayMay Made it say something about a charity before Christmas that wanted interactive cards for kids.  I'm not exactly sure of the details but I'll make them and then contact her.

 Items Used

Really old stamps (lol)
Lawn Fawn double slider dies
Lawn Fawn stitched wave borders
Docraft water colour pens
Crafters Companion coloured pencils.
Brushos
Nuvo Shimmer Powders

So I thought you don't get more interactive than a double slider card lol.  I'm lazy so I like to use dies that make it easier lol.  Anyway I hope you love my creation.


Till next time

Star Card Tutorial using backgrounds I created and dies and stamps Tues 15 January 19

Hey again everyone

Today's card is a stash up lol.  Basically I've used all my stash I already have I rarely go and buy something unless I REALLY like it but I do have a splurge every now and then.  I do tend to buy magazines but only if I like the stamp set.  And loads of my fav stamp sets are from mags.

What I used

The card bases are from my stash (I think I got them from create and craft years ago)
The image stamps are from a magazine freebie from years ago.  The background is one from an earlier video.  The stamps and dies are from Hello Bluebird "Moose and Friends" and the star dies are from a Docrafts star set.  Foil card silver.  Stampin Up Copper Foil card.


I hope what I create gives you inspiration and ideas that you can use in your own crafting.  I don't create to encourage you to buy I create to encourage you to have fun and enjoy and to hopefully think I can do that with stuff from my stash.  I just have fun in the hope that you too will have fun.

So enough waffling for now lol. 

I hope you like what I've created and use it for inspiration in your own crafting.

Till next time
