Versamark Resist

Hello bloggers and welcome.

Sometimes, I get excited about little things, like the glossy card in the new Stampin' Up! catalogue.  Yes, really, plain, white, shiny card.  Let me tell you why! 

When I first started rubberstamping, I read everything I could get my hands on to learn  techniques and tricks and some of the techniques need a glossy card as your base.  I've been refreshing my memory of these techniques and I'm going to be showcasing them over the next few weeks.

One of the first techniques I tried when I began stamping was Versamark resist stamping. It creates a beautiful, subtle effect that's great for creating backgrounds - like in this card in shades of green.

It's very easy to do. Here's how–

So what do you think - are you going to try it? Let me know! 

Thank you for visiting- see you again soon...

Sweet flowers

Hello bloggists, and thank you for visiting.

If all has gone according to plan, when this blog entry goes live I shall be at our SU Demonstrators’ conference (OnStage local) in Telford.  The conferences happen twice a year, and it’s where we get to see the new products that are coming up and to meet up with other SU demos. 

Part of the fun is swapping.  The idea is that you make multiple copies of something – a card front, a box, a bookmark – and then on the day you swap them.  You then come back with a pile of inspiration and ideas.

This time I’ve made some flowers with sweet centres.

Here's the tutorial.  

I promise that I'll be showing you what I get in return for my swaps on Tuesday's YouTube-  hope I'll see you then!

Crafty Hugs,

Keren

PS - if you want know more about joining in the fun of being a SU demo, drop me a line - I'd be happy to help!
