STENCIL EXTRAVAGANZA

Hello again

Every now and then, I re-evaluate my craft stash, what I have and how I use it. Because of this, I discovered a set of Sizzix products and a few other mediums that I wanted to try out with my collection of stencils. Stencils are pretty reasonable to buy and they have far more uses than one first imagines.

I will leave you a link below to my video which is in the style of a workshop. It is over an hour-long so give yourself enough time to settle down with a snack and a drink then watch it. In the title I estimated 20+ projects but when I listed them out it totalled 28! You can adapt the mediums that you use and the way you use them. The main thing is to try one or two and make better use of the products that you have in your craft room.

Below the video, I will list the different effects you can try and where possible an affiliate link to Amazon so that you can find the products if you want to try them too.

Happy crafting

Love Elisabeth xx

INK DROPS INSPIRATION

Hello again

February sped by for me. I have been busy creating and filming new videos featuring the glorious Ink Drops Papers available from Craft Consortium. The Ink Drops form part of their Essential Craft Papers range. They are brilliant for card backgrounds, scrapbook pages and journaling. However, there is so much more you can do with them.

Here are all the names of the Ink Drops Papers:- Earth/Dusk/Vivid/Candy Drops/Ocean and each of the colour ranges are worth having in your craft supplies.

I have filmed two videos to show just how versatile these papers are. The first one focuses on the earlier papers. You will see that you can stamp, die-cut, emboss and create paper projects with them.

The second set of cards features the latest range called Ink Drops Ocean. It is a particular favourite of mine because I love the deep blues and greens.

I am pretty sure these projects will inspire you to make good use of your Ink Drops papers. It would be great to see your projects on the Craft Consortium Network on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/groups/989114164562461

You can still buy these papers in both the 12×12 and 6×6 sizes directly from Craft Consortium.
