Hi fellow crafters, I hope you are well! I wanted to share with you all how to make this Father’s Day card using the Nature’s Texture stamps and stencils. For this card I used the Nature's Textures Hexagon Layering Stamp & Stencil set. I made this card using a 5”x7” Kraft card blank. Taking a white piece of card, I cut it slightly shorter than 5”x7” so I could mount it onto the Kraft card once I had stamped my design. There are...
We're having a fantastic time at Creativation and it's so great to meet other crafters who love paper crafts as much as we do! I wanted to create some makes for our stand that were bright and bold to reflect how positive we feel about 2020. I went with a colour palette that scared me a little at first (I think we all tend to have favourite crafting colour combos that feel safe!). Well I was definitely out of that...
Our new Buds to Blooms collection just got even better with the addition of our Cut & Craft Card Pack! The pack has been designed to work beautifully with our Magic Windows – Circle and Decorative Tabs die sets, and there are enough sheets to make 20 stunning Magic Windows cards! The artwork has been printed for us in the UK by a local printer. The texture and details of my original watercolours have been retained through the printing and...
Perfect Peonies is the much anticipated stamp set released with our new Buds to Blooms collection. It's a bumper A4 photopolymer stamp set and it is, in fact, so full of stamps that we had to design the packaging on one side only as it was the only way we could display ALL of those gorgeous high quality stamps! It felt self-indulgent drawing the artwork for this stamp set as I enjoyed it so much! For me, what makes the...
Hi everyone! I thought I would make something a little bit different with my Beautiful Moments – Cold Days, Warm Hearts collection. We are due to have a new arrival of a baby girl in our family any time now...my cousin is about to give birth to her first child, so I thought why not make a picture celebrating her first Christmas? I have made this project on 12x12 mount board, so that afterwards it can be placed into a...
So...my first project for Angela Poole! Very exciting and a massive honour. I hope this card shows just how effective keeping things simple can be. Firstly, I used the Magic Windows Slide & Reveal die set to cut out the main images from the Christmas Wonderland and Winter Days stamp sets. Both images were coloured using just two colours of brush pens. I inked around the edges of the reindeer image with Distress Oxide Gathered Twigs, and once I had constructed...
Hello crafters! Today I wanted to share with you my idea of how to make a Christmas gift box with the extra-special detail of having the Magic Windows feature. I came up with this idea after making a few Christmas card designs using the Magic Windows Slide & Reveal die set and Beautiful Moments – Cold Days, Warm Hearts stamps. I wanted something extra-special to put my cards inside to give as a gift! What better than a lovely coordinating...
I couldn't be more excited about the possibilities of using our Magic Windows Slide & Reveal die set to make incredible scrapbook layouts!! Press the 'play' button below to see one scene dissolve into another – it really is magical... I absolutely love the fact that Magic Windows have a hidden image or photograph that is only revealed when the tab slides! It's such a unique feature and I've not seen scrapbook pages that are interactive like this before. Magic Windows make it...
These glass-effect baubles are absolutely stunning! I discovered the technique whilst experimenting with different stamping effects. I promise there's no etching involved, as they're made by simply stamping onto clear shrink plastic. The nostalgic scenes and festive motifs from the Beautiful Moments - Cold Days, Warm Hearts Christmas Wonderland and Winter Days stamp sets work so well with this technique - especially as the circular designs are perfect for making hanging baubles! We're proud that our stamp sets are made from high-quality photopolymer....
There's no getting around the fact that the Magic Windows Slide & Reveal Die set is an incredible craft tool! It enables you to make your own Magic Windows cards from stamped designs, patterned papers and even photo cards. There really is nothing else like it on the market. Knowing that I can use the die set to make personalised photo cards is really exciting! In the past I've spent a fortune online making personalised cards, but they're always generic and...
