This last project was so fun. I love exploring the limits of supplies as well as trying something different.
I wanted to softly age this project with some muted tans.
I found that a perfect Blends color to help age Basic White!
I also discuss a couple of supplies videos I plan to do next!
This is such a nice kit! I love the unique shaped card bases and that it works seemlessly for masculine and feminine cards.
I demonstrate many coloring techniques using Stampin' Blends markers.
Very few added supplies were used in the video and aside from some sort of small embellishments. The kit really does work well without any added supplies.
This week I had the pleasure of crafting in the flesh with my mom and her friend Shelley. I haven't crafted with someone other than my husband since last summer! And I had to bring one new bundle - Quiet Meadow.
Sadly, I ended up having to hide two different mistakes, one of which I made live in the video. Mistakes are bound to happen.
You get to decide if it is something that...
What a busy week! I had so much fun yesterday teaching coloring techniques using Stampin' Blends. They are such an easy medium to use. I am so, so glad that Stampin' Up! came out with their own alcohol markers! This means that the Copic classes I took so many years ago are put to good use in my Blends coloring classes.
At the end of last week's final comparison video I promised to use...
I chose the worst week to video a cardstock comparison of Whisper White and the new Basic White. We are at my mom's working on the fifth wheel. The trailer needs a couple of upgrades, maintenance and we are remodeling the living/work areas to better utilize our small space.
Today's part two video is packed with tips, test results and observations about the various features of the...
It isn't often that I create projects, film a walkthrough and upon final review, decide the cards just aren't where I want them to be. Today's video is exactly that. I have tips on staying organized as well as review the product changes coming on 5/4 with the new annual catalog.
Hey! I finally have access to the 2021-22 annual catalog PDF. This means I can break down all projects into either: carry over and/or retiring products! I will be disseting every project from now until the catalog launches on 5/4.
I will also be plotting my pre-go live order so I can start sharing new stuff early in April. And finally, I can begin work on the publich searchable ...
This video walks through the third project showcasing the five retiring in-colors. I stamp the inside and envelope live. Libby donated her three projects! Thank You Libby! Don't miss the photographs of her in colors projects at the end of the showcase. I hope these six projects inspire you to either buy these lovely colors or if you already have them, create something fun with them!
Today I am back on track with the second project showcasing the retiring in-colors. This project was a struggle to get "just right" and though it started out as the first of three showcase projects, it was the last one finished.
Here is the inspiration pin -> pin link.
The sheer volume of content that this kit warranted made me break up the video into two parts.
For Part one, I sped up some prep and stamping to keep it under thirty minutes and for part two I just gave up and let it go long.
The tips, tricks and designs make every minute of part two worthwhile.
Here is the link to part one ->...
