Something Saturday - Bendy Floating Window Card

Hi there Creators,  I saw a version of this card online pretty sure it was Lisa Curcio over in the States, I have simplified it right down (my husband says conserving cardstock and being economical) 🤣 She had used 4 pieces of A6 Cardstock to create hers, mine only uses one, plus the designer paper, embellishments and a couple of white strips for the back to write on. Anyway here are the ones I created: This first one uses Sweet Jar bundle  (stamps & punch), also the new Regals Designer Series papers , and the Spotlight on Nature Dies (although when I cut the circle I wasn't really thinking about the fact the pretty bit is on the inside 🤦‍♀️) The card I made in the video uses the ever so pretty Frames & Flowers Specialty Designer Series Paper, then paired up with the new Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape and matching Extraordinary flora bundle .  Oh my goodness you're going to want to get those!  I've attached the saying in the same way with a strip of matchi...

Something Saturday - Reverse Stamping

  Hi there Creators I thought I'd do a spot of reverse stamping this week, there's a really lovely stamp set: Elegantly Said, that has this cute little die that looks like 1/2 a butterfly, so if you know how to reverse stamp you can create the butterfly quite easily.  In the video I show creating the pink butterflies, I've then added the Pool Party Butterflies and the large flourish in the corners is also reverse stamped for the upper corner.  check out what I used here:  What Heather used This next card uses the Boughs & Blossoms stamp set, the leaves only go in one direction and as it's not a photopolymer set I can't bend them in the other direction, so reverse stamping allows me to get them to wave their way across the page (they'd make a pretty good wreath I reckon if you kept stamping them round!)  check out what I used for this card here: What Heather Used  Anyway, nitty gritty, how do you do this?  Easy peasy, stamp your main image 1/2 stren...

Something Saturday - Colouring in your stamps a different way

 Hi there Creators,  Today I'm showing you how to use daubers to colour in your block image stamps, you can get the prettiest combinations of colour onto one stamp this way. I've used the Boughs & Blossoms Bundle (157712, $59.25)   (from the new Mini Catalogue) made up of the Bough Punch (157711, $31) and the Boughs & Blossoms Stamp set ($35, 157703)  I'd already decided I had to have the punch, and as it turns out we're using it in the Mega class on 29th January.  But when I see bundles I usually have to get both sections of it!  However the punch doesn't actually cut any of the stamped images out. Anyway on to photos..... this is the first card I had made up already to show, I've used my Brights colours on this, Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody and Poppy Parade for the flowers, then Granny Apple Green and Garden Green for the leaves (admittedly Garden Green isn't in the Brights colour range but it goes well!)     Then in the video I made u...
