Happy Halloween! I was hoping to have had a few more Halloween themed videos up for you, but I ran out of time filming them :/ So hopefully you've been enjoying the few that I did manage to film :D And thank you Lourdes for lots of the goodies I've used on them too! :D xxx

Hello :D I've got another Halloweeney type video for you today, although the techniques are certainly transferable to other cards too :D Also try the inks on white card, you get a totally different look with the fab Interference inks from Lisa Horton :D I've teamed up the background with some Sizzix goodies sent to me by my lovely friend Lourdes, and I couldn't resist trying the Cosmic Shimmer Glow in the Dark Fluffy Stuff on the moon too :D xxx

I'm hoping to do a few Halloween themed cards again this year, I did the skulls the other day and today's video is using the fab large Boo and EEK dies from Sizzix and Tim Holtz that my lovely friend Lourdes very kindly sent me :D And I teamed them up with some Creative Expressions dies which I just thought paired with the words perfectly :D Enjoy :D xxx

Here's my Un-Boxing video for Tonic Craft Kit #73 :D This month's kit allows you to create 2 fabulous festive gift boxes, a bell and a bauble! I think they're wonderful 3D makes, and I'm very tempted to make myself a Nespresso pod advent calendar with the bauble :D And of course I had to give you a few ways of using the dies for cards too :D Enjoy!

I adore this 3D skulls embossing folder from Sizzix and I just to try adding embossing powder to the debossed areas by brayering on some sticky ink, embossing the folder, then adding a mixture of Wow embossing powders :D I think my original card that I show right at the end turned out better, but you can see the basic process in the main portion of the video as every card will turn out differently when using these techniques :D

I really liked how these 3 birthday cards turned out! I did one for my Mum, one for my friend Lourdes and one for my Nan's 90th and they all went down really well :D Again I was having fun playing with the Distress Watercolour pencils and some new Tim Holtz stamps and stencils too! :D I was also playing around with how I dragged out the colour, I diluted some Cosmic Shimmer Opal Blaze into a waterbrush and used that to give a subtle sparkly look :D xxx
