Winter Wishes Card with Re-inkers

Posted on December 8, 2023 by Imagine

By Alison Heikkila

Hello! I’m Alison Heikkila and I’ve got my latest YouTube video for Imagine to share with you today. We’re going to use dye re-inkers on a Gel Press Plate with a pretty stencil to make some cool wintery monoprints. This is one of those instances where I wanted to just keep pulling prints, but I thought you’d want to see a finished card this time.

Stamping with Fireworks! Shimmery Sprays

Have you ever stamped with your Fireworks! Shimmery Craft Sprays?

This was totally new to me and I loved it! I ended up creating several cards, including a full panel shaker with recycled packaging. Oh! And I used Creative Medium to add transfer foil to a project. Let’s jump into it for loads of fun!
