I also will be showing you how to put together this card design on a video tutorial featuring Rebekah Meier Designs mixed media products by Therm O Web and also a new digital pack from my shop with which I made some beautiful foiled word die cuts ! Tutorial & Supplies I invite you to visit Therm O Web's blog to see the complete list of supplies and links.

Today I'm back with a new video tutorial with Therm O Web , featuring Gina K. Designs new Holiday line! I'm in love with everything in this line and I'll be showing you how I used the new Therm O Web Decorative die cuts, Foil-Mates and glitter Fancy Foils! I love everything in this new release and I know you will too! I used beautiful papers from Simple Stories on these ornament tags. I love the more muted, retro color scheme of this paper pack. This one's called Very Merry and I enjoyed working with it so very much. Video Tutorial & Supplies Click below to watch the video tutorial. All details on the steps I followed to make this tags can be found on the video. The complete supply list can be found on the video description on YouTube and also on Therm O Web's blog .

Have you ever heard of ink smooshing? It consists on touching the paper with usually watered down inks to create an abstract background... Well, I wanted to try it out with paints and I captured it on camera for you too! So yes, jump this intro and click play if you must or visit my Youtube channel and watch the tutorial there. All products used were sent by The Crafter's Workshop and Grafix. All opinions stated here are my own and based on my personal experience using these products. For this tutorial I'm using heavy body paints from The Crafter's Workshop together with a tool that I had never tried before, an acrylic monoprint plate from Grafix that I think is ideal for this technique. Ink smooshing usually works using a packaging piece of acetate and that makes sense since the ink isn't too heavy for the sheet. But paint is usually heavier, even when watered down and there's a chance an acetate sheet won't work a smoothly as this Duralar Mon...

We've been sharing project ideas for Fall and Halloween all week long on Therm O Web and now I'm joining the team with a foil stamped Halloween card using the new Gina K. Designs Sparkling Silver Glitter Deco Foil and Brutus Monroe stamps and inks. This is my first proper Halloween card ever, so I hope you enjoy that quick tip video tutorial I prepared for you. It may seem strange but the truth is Halloween is not a traditional holiday in my country. Still, I had lots of fun preparing this video for you (with spooky music and all)! Supplies and Recommendations You'll find the complete list of supplies and some extra recommendations on Therm O Web's blog.   I also invite you to subscribe to their newsletter and follow them on YouTube and social media, as they will be sharing lots and lots of project ideas for Fall and Winter.

When I think I can't stretch my craft and art supplies any further, I find myself playing and creating fun new things I had not thought of before! Today I'm sharing a mini video tutorial with quick tips on how to create this negative watercolored background with yummy, detailed splattered foil!  Supplies used: Amazing Things Rubber Stamp Set Acrylic Stamping Block Passionate Pink Premium Dye Ink Cryogen White Cardstock Marie's Watercolors in Rose and Gamboge Medium and Fine tip Water Brushes Deco Foil Adhesive Pen Wild Dandelion Deco Foil Laminator Westcott 12" Titanium Bonded Paper Trimmer This card might as well be one of my favorites... I just enjoy painting backgrounds so much and I love the negative watercoloring using these two colors! Such an inspirational stamp set surely needs a colorful canvas to complete its sentiments! I'm not sure how the foil splatter came about... This watercolored background was very instinctive an...

I love clear stamp sets, and what I try to do every time I get a new set is stamp as many scraps as I possibly can, fussy cut them and color them all. That gives me a lot of options when I'm about to put together a card. That is exactly what I did with the coffee cup stamps from Fill me Up by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. Today's card is one of those clean and simple numbers created with previously stamped pieces on an also previously painted background. You see, I find it to be extra productive to make backgrounds and color stamped images in advance and keep them in a special basket until it is time to make a card. It often proves to be a magical process when you end up finding every coordinating piece you need in the same forgotten spot of your craft room! Not long ago I shared on YouTube how I make these watercolor washes for my card backgrounds. I use student grade watercolors, but I love the results I get with them. I am also using a special shimmery metallic paper ...

Tutorial: Click here to check out my latest video tutorial for Therm O Web - and the complete list of supplies- featuring these foil dipped backgrounds with Mixed Media Medium and Fancy Foils! Do leave me a comment letting me know what you think about this technique! You know I love Deco Foil and finding out new ways to apply it is always fun (especially when it doesn't require a laminator)! Thanks so much for visiting.

Yay! Finally! Today I have a new video tutorial on these watercolor wash backgrounds I've been making lately! My followers have been asking to know more and some wanted to see the process! I've been wanting to make a video tutorial for a while and this seemed like the perfect opportunity to get back on track!  The background I'm painting on the video is based on the ones I used for today's cards. I got new watercolor colors and I've been playing with warmer washes. I love how easy it is to finish a card when you use a watercolor wash... I love adding bold images and sentiments foiled on vellum. These sentiments are actually from my latest digi stamp release on Etsy and I think they look perfect on these backgrounds. I am not using watercolor cardstock today, instead I am painting on metallic cardstock. This cardstock is called Cryogen White Iridescent and it is carried by Paper Temptress . It has a subtle shimmer and when your watercolor dries th...
