How To Use A Tic Tac Toe Board For A Super Pretty Card

Hello and welcome. This is a new blog hop for me and I am so happy to be here. I was asked if I would like to join the Stamp Impression EUrope Group and their monthly blog hop during Onstage Cologne, and I was honoured and naturally I said yes. This group is well established and consists of super talented demonstrators from across Europe. This month we have a Tic Tac Toe board, meaning we can pick any three squares that create a straight line. For my project I have chosen the middle horizontal...

A Simple Masculine Card Using Layered Elements!

Hello, it's time for the Build & Bloom Blog Hop. For May we are bringing you 'Masculine' projects and I tend to struggle with masculine cards. I am not sure why, but I always have. I mean I am sure that most of the cards we create can be made more masculine just by changing out the colours. This month I have chosen to use the Beautiful Ordinary Life Suite as my Product Spotlight over on my social media. This suite is perfect for so many occassions and projects. I found creating my simple...

Emboss Resist Technique For A Thank You Card.

Happy New Year and welcome to the Stamptastic Friends January Blog Hop! This month we are all about Thanks and Gratitude. We can all name a reason that we can send a card to say Thank You or to show our gratitude. This is one thing I fail at often, and this year I am going to improve on this massively. On my social media, you may have seen that I am using the Love Notes 6x6 DSP as my product spotlight for this month, and I wanted this project to keep with that. I also wanted to use the papers...

Using Acrylic Blocks To Create A Square Background

Using Acrylic Blocks To Create A Square Background

Welcome to the Stamptastic Friends November Blog Hop! This month we are all about Squares, square cards, square images, square patterns. Whatever way you want to use squares to create a project. When I first sat down to create my project I felt a bit lost. I could not think what I could do that involved squares other than a patchwork of DSP (designer series paper) and although this can be beautiful, it was not what I wanted. I turned to Pinterest for help and found lots of ideas and...
