Lantern Window Topper with Tonic Craft Kit #25 :D


You should all be getting your craft kits really soon as it's almost the beginning of September!! But if you haven't got it yet, I think there is still 24 hours left to get yours, so be quick!! :D And this gorgeous range of Blue Blossom Craft Perfect and Nuvo should be out in September too, so not long to wait for that too :D

This first card today is using the 3D dies for the Kit to make a '2D' topper, I did still use a blister so technically it's 3D, but I haven't used the dies to make an actual lantern, I just used the panel die and snipped of the glue tabs to create a lantern topper for my card :D And when using the blister, I just used it as a window and not as a shaker which I thought was a nice idea :D I wasn't sure what to put inside the card as you can see through the window, but in the end I decided on the foiled Kraft Card, then to bring that to the outside design as well I trimmed out a few of the floral clusters and added them around the lantern as well :D Hope you liked this card, there'll be another video up just after this one showing my 2 final projects using Kit #25 :D :D

Present Shaker and Wreath with Tonic Craft Kit #25 :D


Here's the second card of the evening, and my final project with Tonic Craft Kit #25 :D I really love how this wreath card turned out, and it just goes to show that you can use tiny dies to create larger cards too :D I'm usually always showing how to use large dies on smaller cards when using the kit dies, so it was a nice change to use some tiny little flower dies to make a larger embellishment on this card :D Hope you enjoyed both of today's videos!! :D

Simple Geometric Cards with Tonic Craft Kit #25 :D


So sorry it's taken me soo long to get the rest of my Kit #25 videos up! I don't know where the time is going! But this pair of cards is a really simple concept just using a couple of the more basic shape dies from the kit, so if you're not keen on 3D projects, you can still make some gorgeous cards from this kit :D :D There'll be 2 more videos up this week using the kit in a similar way for just making cards too, so they should help spark off some more ideas for you :D :D

Tonic Craft Kit #25 Lantern with a Woodland Twist :D


So in my un-boxing video right at the very end (after saying I probably wouldn't make an actual lantern lol) I showed you this woodland lantern, and here's the sped up video showing how I made it :D :D There will be 3 more videos to follow using this kit, just for card making too, but I'm quite busy at the moment, so they might be a little spread out, but I promise they'll all be up before the end of the month :D :D

Hope Your Birthday is DINO-Mite :D


A cute dino themed birthday card :D I actually made this back in March and am only just getting round to editing the video, but I feel like there's been a lot of Arteza and Tonic videos on my channel recently, so thought I'd throw in a Lawn Fawn one for a change :D :D I absolutely adore Lawn Fawn stamps, but mostly end up using them in Magazine Commissions, but I must make more of an effort to use them in more videos because I love them so much and I have a lovely big collection :D :D I was playing around with some of the Nuvo Woodland Walk products on this card, as they had just come out at the time, and I based my colour scheme on the gorgeous autumnal tones from the Golden Sparkler Nuvo Shimmer Powder :D :D Hope you liked the card! Won't be long before I put up my Tonic Craft Kit #25 un-boxing and card making videos too :D :D Have a fab day! :D
