She has found that crafting is a huge benefit for her mental health as she has been, and is still is, going through a tough time. She contacted me to simply ask me what glue I use!</div><div><br /></div><div>So, after an initial conversation and catch up - because it's also good to have a natter! I sent her some Tombow multipurpose glue and a pack of Stampin' Dimentionals in the post. </div><div><br /></div><div>Today we had a further catch up and conversation as she wanted to place an order - her first with Stampin' Up! We chatted lots about what is the right thing to buy as a relative beginner and in the end she had fallen in love with the Masterfully Made suite in the annual catalogue. Now the suite is a great choice as there are stamps, dies and DSP, not forgetting the sequins (we all have to have sequins).</div><div><br /></div><div>She decided that she would have to use the inks she already had and hope that they will be a good enough colour match but has her eye on all our gorgeous colour collections. Once I had explained how all our wonderful products have great co-ordination she really got it and knew that it would save time as well as money in the long run as she'd been guessing things online and in craft stores. </div><div><br /></div><div>So, in this online demonstration (unedited) I share how I CASE'd one card from the suite and give a few tips along the way. This has got me really thinking about what else crafters might not know... </div><div><br /></div><div>Hope you enjoy the video and if you do please subscribe to the channel and pop a comment on. I do love teaching and sharing my passion for all things papercraft. </div>Issyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01755841201330941102noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7904201817610720090.post-30006356928739302322023-04-18T20:28:00.003+01:002023-04-18T20:28:43.995+01:00Fun Fold and a bit of Vintage Vibe!<iframe frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/dVNFzrLyWNQ" style="background-image: url(https://i.ytimg.com/vi/dVNFzrLyWNQ/hqdefault.jpg);" width="480"></iframe><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xdj266r x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">In this live demonstration I share 2 cards which featured in my last in person class at the beginning of April 2023. </div><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></div><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">One is a fancy fun fold which is really easy to make and features the return of favourite circle punches.

I also share with you some products which are retiring so we're saying a fond farewell before it's too late. Many of the items are on sale (April 2023) with discounts while stocks last.
As always I share tips about how to create beautiful cards and how to get great results using the tools you have.</span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #0d0d0d; font-family: Roboto, Noto, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: #0d0d0d; font-family: Roboto, Noto, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Check out what is still in stock and all sale items by visiting my online store.</span></span></div>Issyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01755841201330941102noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7904201817610720090.post-18078629078116366452023-03-22T16:20:00.003+00:002023-03-22T16:20:58.456+00:00Masked ink blending technique<div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC9zs92u5Wz9GVCo-IBCqZ5x4cFSKuESfGVUYENmyRrMmUm0vgZiVlmjTsgDnn7CJRpxJvoz3wHZej_yhTJ6-wnriBt_8BGnBLYBp_5waPpr0o_TrTULLyreJKxehFtqC_e4pGNSswRvlOK6kEnnPVnmHS9cXW2fHUsEdnilTek3f1d_xtEhEhS1Ub/s1914/Artistically%20Inked.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1914" data-original-width="1079" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC9zs92u5Wz9GVCo-IBCqZ5x4cFSKuESfGVUYENmyRrMmUm0vgZiVlmjTsgDnn7CJRpxJvoz3wHZej_yhTJ6-wnriBt_8BGnBLYBp_5waPpr0o_TrTULLyreJKxehFtqC_e4pGNSswRvlOK6kEnnPVnmHS9cXW2fHUsEdnilTek3f1d_xtEhEhS1Ub/w360-h640/Artistically%20Inked.jpg" title="Artistically Inked" width="360" /></a></div><br /><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #0d0d0d; font-family: Roboto, Noto, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today I'm sharing a great technique for ink blending and masking.

I also have lots of tips for getting great results when die cutting intricate pieces, to make sure that your machine cuts well.

It's really important to know how to get the best results from your tools when you've invested in buying them.</span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #0d0d0d; font-family: Roboto, Noto, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

Butterflies & Flowers layering masks are simply fabulous to use. Making pretty backgrounds or focal point elements for your papercraft projects is easy and very effective. There are so many different ways to use them that I was in a quandary when I decided to demonstrate them.
In the end I decided to show how to get beautiful results using ink blending techniques. The projects are simple but fun to make and would be great gifts too.
I hope I inspire you to give these layering masks a try. Don't forget, all the products I use are available from my online store. The Butterflies and Flowers layering masks make an inexpensive addition to your crafting tools.

border: 0px; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">I received some really lovely feedback from one of my Instagram followers about the card I made for my nephew's birthday so I thought I'd hop on live and demo how I made it. I love ink blending and collage stamping backgrounds for cards and this card uses both techniques. Not at all difficult but one thing that lots of my customers have commented about is how to come up with designs for male cards. Well, this is a fab design that can be used for anyone and any occasion. </span></div><div><span class="style-scope yt-formatted-string" dir="auto" style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 0px; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
I've used Artistically Inked bundle as the main products but then just added a couple of images from another stamp set; Quiet Meadow, which I've found so useful for collage stamping. </span></div><div><span class="style-scope yt-formatted-string" dir="auto" style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 0px; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
Tone on tone was the key to the background then adding some wow factor with metallic copper just finished it fabulously. The SNEAK PEEK of a new product is the envelope. These tall cards are just a nice way of doing something a bit different, they certainly make our cards stand out from the crowd when the recipient displays them on their mantlepiece! So a nice tall or skinny envelope is needed. In the new January - June mini catalogue we have a pack of 15 skinny envelopes. They come in 3 colours and they feature a gorgeous scalloped flap which reveals a printed inner. I felt it was a shame to use the gummed closure so I show you how I adapted the envelope to use a twine fastener.</span></div><div><span class="style-scope yt-formatted-string" dir="auto" style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 0px; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
Hope you enjoy this demonstration and more so I hope that it inspires you to make some cards using the same techniques - how about it?! You can share any of your makes over on my Facebook Group Page - The Crafty Beehive.</span></div><div><span class="style-scope yt-formatted-string" dir="auto" style="background: rgb(249, 249, 249); border: 0px; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

Jolly Holly-Days stamp set without colouring in the image. It's not all my customers or followers that actually enjoy colouring in techniques, in fact quite a few actually roll their eyes out loud when I mention a colouring technique! Hard to believe but it's true! I'm using heat embossing for these cards and I also share with you some samples of other images where I've added colour to just demonstrate how different this stamp set can look.</div></div><div class="o9v6fnle cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql ii04i59q" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">I've used the same heat embossing technique for all three of the cards but go from simple and quick layout to a little bit more and finally a LOT more products added. So whether you're a beginner or an out and out avid crafter you will be able to produce gorgeous cards using this set and this technique. </div><div><br /></div></div><div class="o9v6fnle cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql ii04i59q" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap;"></div></div>Issyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01755841201330941102noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7904201817610720090.post-60896342582522723682021-11-01T16:30:00.002+00:002021-11-01T16:30:14.025+00:00How to make a window card using Art in Bloom stamps and dies.

It can seem like you need lots of different inks and sprays - well, I'm here to show you that you too can create something that looks fab and actually with just a few additions to your existing stash. In fact, you will gain pleasure out of knowing that your stamp sets and dies can be used in different ways to make other projects.</span></div></div><div class="" data-block="true" data-editor="8s1tm" data-offset-key="9e1t0-0-0" style="background-color: white; color: #1c1e21; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="9e1t0-0-0" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit; position: relative;"><span data-offset-key="9e1t0-0-0" style="font-family: inherit;">All the Stampin' Up! products I use are available from my online store.</span></div></div></div>Issyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01755841201330941102noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7904201817610720090.post-16168781736961430152021-08-01T09:45:00.002+01:002021-08-01T09:45:53.608+01:00Production Line Stamping - How to 'stamp a stack' of cards<iframe frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/_MWdSgZN2Dw" width="480"></iframe><div><br /></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #0d0d0d; font-family: Roboto, Noto, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">I'm here to show you how you can produce a stack of cards all in one sitting. I will be making Christmas cards in this video but the hints and tips for production line stamping are equally useful if you are making a stack of invitations, a stack of thank you cards or even if you produce numbers of cards for fayres etc.
The emphasis is on simple design layout, flat cards for posting and being organised.
So, pull up a chair and let's get your craft on!
Why not shop with me for all the products I use in this video - you'll find them all in my online store (link above) and there are many other fantastic products for you to consider too. Of course, if you have any questions about the techniques I use in this tutorial then please comment below or contact me direct.</span></div>Issyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01755841201330941102noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7904201817610720090.post-11103925545305714112021-08-01T08:53:00.000+01:002021-08-01T08:53:31.449+01:00How To - add quick decoration to a notebook<iframe frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/71OnLlV6lGY" style="background-image: url(https://i.ytimg.com/vi/71OnLlV6lGY/hqdefault.jpg);" width="480"></iframe><div><br /></div><div>I've not added to this blog for a while but have discovered that I can share my YouTube channel videos immediately as I upload them.
