Beautiful Moments Stamp Set

Hello there and a very happy start of a new week to you! I made these cards on Friday to cheer me up! I am getting a bit fed up with the relentless weather at the moment which has caused havoc with our home so I decided to make these summer beauties and dream of sunnier days ahead. I shared them on Facebook and Instagram and they have had such an amazing response, thank you.

 I am running classes on 3 separate dates making these 3 cards plus one other which I will share later on in the week. Please see the end of this post for the class dates.

 This stamp set was designed by my friend and fellow demonstrator Jacque Williams from New Zealand as part of her 1 million sales celebrations and it's been a joy to work with. I stamped the images on our Shimmer White card stock which is great for watercoloring and I used our Aquapainters and ink pads to colour the images which were stamped in Stazon ink.

 The sentiments used are from the Peaceful Moments stamp set which is my go to stamp set at the moment.

 I am not sure if you can see from the image below but the card is shimmery.

 If you would like to come along please let me know.

Under my Umbrella Paper Piecing Video

Hello there! 

Just a quick post this morning to share a little video with you that I have uploaded. The card I make on the video is slightly different to this one below, as I share how I create the wellies using the papers rather than colouring them in.

Hope you enjoy my little video and I would love you to subscribe to my channel if you could!

More Under my Umbrella makes

Hello and happy Monday! The cards I have been sharing recently do seem quite appropriate for the weather we have been having, although I am not sure an umbrella would last very long at all!

This card is very similar to one I am going to be sharing on a video on Wednesday that shows you how to do paper piecing and use patterned papers for stamping on, rather than colouring the images.

This card is a really great one for sending in the post as theres no pesky bows that are going to make it more expensive to send in the UK, it's also great for making in a batch too!

If you would like like this set then I currently have a Class in the Post which you can find more details on here or why not come to one of my classes detailed below which include this set.

Under my Umbrella masking technique video

Hello there! Yep I am back again and today please don't faint but I am back with a video!! Can you believe it! Yes I wanted to share the lovely Under my Umbrella stamp set and I choose to share this card first with a little video on how I did the masking!

The link to the video can be found at the end of this blog post for you to enjoy as are details of the events related to these products. If you are local and want to attend my Beginners Cardmaking day then this is one of the techniques we are going to cover!

Hope you enjoy, have a lovely Sunday!
