ROAR- some....!!

Hey everyone....

Are you ready for a ROAR - ing card??!! 

I wanted to try out some pastel colouring with my Copics and I thought these super cute dinosaurs from the "prehistoric playmates" set by Hello Sweetums would be perfect!!

Once I coloured them up along with some of the trees and rocks I used the co-ordinating dies to cut them out....

The background was done using a stencil from Heffy doodle on neenah desert storm cardstock and I inked it with make art ink!! 

I love heat embossing my sentiments with white opaque WOW! embossing powder, it works so well on any colour card!! 

I just adore this sweet set from HS and there is so many more cuties available in the store too, you should totally check it out!! 

Happy crafting everyone, Hugz Ashlee. 

Make a mouse smile....!!

Hey everyone.....

I'm absolutely loving all the gorgeous images from "Miss ink stamps", they are super cute and so much fun to colour!!

For this card I used the set "Say cheese" and made a sun with the scene builder stencil....

I love the fun sentiments included in this set...

I used some WOW! opaque white powder and heat embossed "how do you make a mouse smile" on the front of the card and inside I will be putting the answer "say cheese"!!

For the Hello in the background I used a die from Pink fresh studio called "hello with botanicals"... I stencilled the sun from the scene builder with Catherine Pooler ink Peach Bellini and Limoncello onto the card base first before cutting out the die piece which makes part of the sun raised. 

I hope you enjoyed todays card...

You can check out all the fabulous products available from Miss Ink stamps here at the store.

Happy for you....!!

Hey everyone....

I hope those that celebrate have had a wonderful Easter weekend, it's been a lovely one for us here in Tasmania!!

Today I have a card using some new and old products from "Create a smile stamps"....

The beautiful leaves in the background are stamped using the new set "floral decorations", this set is so versatile and pretty!!

I co-ordinated the florals with a previously released set called "sharp one" and added them to the card base with some foam tape for dimension.....

I added a focal sentiment from the "happy days" set by stamping the "happy" directly onto my card base with some black ink and then using a strip of black cardstock I heat embossed the "for you" with opaque white WOW! embossing powder....

and of course a touch of sequins to finish it off!! 

Hope you like it, Hugz Ashlee

Toucan do it....!!

Hey everyone....

I've been super busy behind the scenes lately but I've finally got a new video up on my youtube channel showing how I created this card using lots of fun goodies from "Catherine Pooler". I wanted to use some of the new release CP pieces so I thought why not set up my camera, have a bit of crafty fun, film and see what I can come up with...

Sp here is the result....

I coloured up all the images using my Altenew alcohol markers just with some quick colouring and finished them off with a touch of white pen for some highlights. 

You can find more details and check out the process of making this card on the video below.. (I am still super new to the video making so please bare with me)

Catherine Pooler products I used are "Toucan do it" stamps and "To the point" die...

and some CP sequins for a bit of bling of course!!

You can't fake AWESOME....!!

Hey everyone....

Tonight I have a card to share with you that I made using heat embossing with "WOW!" opaque white powder for my background and the big focal point the sentiment!!

I just love heat embossing my background and using ink blending with it, it always creates fun bases for a card!! 

I used two stamp sets from "Catherine Pooler" for this one along with some CP inks (sorry I didnt track which colour inks I used, oopsies) ...

- Cottage corsage 

- Awesome and wonderful 

To finish off the card I added a touch of WOW! sparkles and some sequins from hbbrittneylee etsy store....

I hope you like my card and feel inspired to get your embossing powder out and create some WOW! cards!! 

Happy crafting, hugz Ashlee
