Hello Friends! Katy here with my latest video! In todays video I use some Cherry Blosom Walnut Ink to create a simple background for an Easter egg die cut I have in my stash. I kept the background simple and made an A1 size card, also known as an RSVP card size. I love that I can use the Walnut Inks like watercolors to create simple backgrounds. Video has all the details. Thanks for watching.

– Hi everyone! It’s Jessica here. Halloween is right around the corner and today I have a really quick & easy treat box idea for you. If you are interested in making mini treat boxes and dressing them up for Halloween, Christmas, or Easter, just keep reading!
Step 1: Die cut a piece of Mint Macaron cardstock with Design a Treatbox die from Stampin’ Up. Fold along the score lines to create a mini treat box.
Step 2: Die cut a piece of black cardstock with the bat wing die from the same set. Then spritzed it with a generous layer of Sheer Shimmer Craft Spray in Frost. The shimmer spray really adds a whimsical touch to the bat wings! You can compare it with the die cut in the back without the Sheer Shimmer Spray. Doesn’t it look so different?
Step 3: Then I added a smiley face to the tab of the treat box with irRESISTible Pico Embellisher. The fine-tip nozzle was so easy to use to create fine details.
Step 4: Die cut the box labels with mint patterned paper and white cardstock. The “trick or treat” sentiment is from Mama Elephant’s Meowlloween Extras set. I stamped it with Brilliance Starlite Black ink pad.
Step 5: Since this is a mini treat box (holds 2 Hershey kisses), no tape or glue is required for the box assembly. Simply fold along the crease lines and hold it together with the flaps’ openings. This no-glue project is ideal for mass production and you could create many party favors in a short time!
Once the box is assembled, adhere the label dies to the front and slide the bat wings die between the top tabs. You could also create Christmas or Easter treat boxes with the other dies in this set.
Hello Friends! Katy here with another quick project. I love trying new things with my inks and embossing folders and in todays video I used my VersaFine Clair with some Brilliance pigment inks in Cosmic Copper and Galaxy Gold and Moonlight White, with a 3D embossing folder.
Hello, friends! Amalia here with a project from Imagine. In this video, I’m using the new VersaFine Clair ink colors to create masterboards, which will later be cut into ATCs and a bookmark. VersaFine Clair inks are highly pigmented and provide a perfect stamp impression on the first try. Their vibrant colors are ideal for watercoloring, as they won’t bleed when wet. I’ll also be incorporating stamps, stencils, and stamping foam to bring these ATCs and the bookmark to life.
I love to color! I am an avid Copic marker fan and adore using watercolor on stamped images. Sometimes I like taking a more liberal rather than literal approach to coloring images. If you do not like to color this is the video and project for you! Find some simple lined floral images and use sponge daubers to daub, rub, smear or pounce color on. Versacolor inks are blendable and provide jut the right dry time to create a smooth finish to your design. I used heat embossing with white MBoss powder on white cardstock so the outline would stand out but not overpower. This created a soft feminine hue to the image. This would also look great in black ink. Give it a try!
I wanted to create some backgrounds just to get my creative juices flowing. I am so glad I did because I was able to use many of the different cardstock scraps and designer paper scraps to make some really cute backgrounds.
I used different stencils from my stash, some blending brushes, and a few Imagine Crafts inks and daubers to create backgrounds that I turned into Birthday cards.
