Creating a 3D Gingerbread House gift box/decoration using the wonderful Festive Collection dies by Sue Wilson for Creative Expressions :D I had so much fun creating this Gingerbread House adding all the different elements, and I've tried to add in lots of annotations to the video to help you make sense of my process :D Enjoy :D
Creative Expressions products used in this video :D
This is a door plaque which I made for my crafty friend Christina :D When you see the words Flowers, Ribbons and Pearls you'll probably know which Christina I'm talking about lol It's Christina Griffiths :D We haven't even been friends for a year yet, but it seems like we've known each other forever :D Christina very kindly sent me quite a few of the items I used on this plaque including the skeleton leaves, paper flowers and gem sprays which are all available from Wild Orchid Crafts :D I had so much fun creating this thank you present for her (even if it did take me far too long lol) and she was really pleased to receive it too :D I'm not going to do a full products list of everything I've used, but I will link a few of the essentials below :D Hope you enjoyed the video :D
A fun art journal layout using the gorgeous and summery By The Shore Collection NEW from Apple Blossom and exclusive to CraftStash :D I also threw in some Lawn Fawn Stamps, Gilding Polish and Nuvo Mousse, and I even used my Gelli plate too :D :D I've wanted to do an underwater themed journal layout for ages!! I have another idea to use the cute Lawn Fawn Mermaid in a portrait layout, but I haven't gotten round to creating that yet lol, but after getting this stunning collection, I just had to think up another journal layout to use it on (there will be some card making videos using this collection too, over on my CRaFTi channel at some point!!) :D :D :D You can see in the video below that I kept changing my mind about different elements and deciding I didn't like parts and I needed to cover them up, but I really like the final outcome :D I especially like the dark black frame around half of the page creating the foreground :D I also love the subtle stamping in the background using Oxides, Gilding Polish and Nuvo Mousse!! I especially like that on the shark, the details show through the colouring that I did with the Aqua Flow Pens :D Hope you liked the layout!! There's a slightly different video for next Wednesday! A plaque for one of my crafty friends :D :D :D
