Something Saturday - Time for Celebration Ephemera Pack

 Hi there Creators Today I'm showing off this Time for Celebration Mix & Match Ephemera Pack because I discovered something really cool...... They're sticky backed!  I totally recommend having your Take Your Pick tool handy for removing the backing.  Here are the links for products I've used in these cards: Sweet Jar Bundle ,  Old Olive Two-Tone Cardstock , Green "Luck" card Beautiful Butterflies stamp set ,   Petal Pink Two-Tone Cardstock  Peachy Hearts Celebrate Card Simply Said Mix & Match Stamp set ,  the Tools card and Disco Ball Card I also added some Rhinestones to the ones in the first 2 photos (let's face it gotta have bling!)💎 Then I got carried away and made a heap more......  I pressed out all the images then put them into piles of things I thought would go well together (Christmas was the easiest pile 🤣)  But it's really cool that there's a bit of everything in the Ephemera. These Christmas cards I used Jar of J...

Something Saturday - Mini Ink Pads & Alphabet dies

 Hi there Creators,

Today I showed off a quick way to create 2 cards from one cut, nice and simple, but with a great look to them.

Here are the cards: 

The cool thing with this is you can gear it to the colours the person really likes.

The idea is to have a piece of card that will give a nice gap all the way round once it's on your card, mine measures 9.5cm x 13.8cm (bearing in mind my base card is 10.5cm x 14.8cm).  You cut out the Happy (or other word) I've used the Alphabet a la Mode dies, leaving enough room to stamp a sentiment in too, (I've used Biggest Wish Stamp set) use the cut out letters in the other card, and add colour to your base card so it peeps through.

I've taken my mini ink pads and swiped them on their ends to get this scribbled effect, I guess you could use pencils or pens, but this was so quick and easy!  Mini ink pads - or Stampin' Spots as they're actually called are such fabulous pads to have, I've inked one up for each colour we have, all you need is the Re-inker and the Stampin' spots and you can have any colour you like

I wanted the cut out word, to really pop, which is why I left it white and brushed colour intensively round the edges of the card

In the video with this second card I wasn't sure how well the birthday would show up using the gorgeous Grape colour, so I ended up popping the card in my Stamparatus just in case I needed a darker colour, so much easier to line it back up again!

I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love
