Create ATC’s and Bookmarks Using the Gorgeous New Colors of VersaFine Clair

By Amalia Montano

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.

Skill: Beginner to intermediate
Time: 30 minutes

Products used:

Imagine

• VersaFine Clair New Colors: Portabello, Lilac Bloom, Hawthorn Rose, Baby Pink, Spruce, Bali Blue, Very Peri, Artic, Grass Green, Strawberry, Avocado, and Sand Dune

Quick and Easy Place Cards For Your Holiday Table Setting

Oct-2022_Katy-Ingram_Place-Cards-Group_IG-1

By Katy Ingram –

Hello Friends! Katy here and today I am creating place cards for my Thanksgiving table. Now I know some people may not do this, but I have added a bit of a twist to mine. On the inside I have included some encouraging and uplifting sentiments to let my loved ones know I appreciate and love them and that I am thankful and grateful to have them at my table for the holidays. Just a little something to make them smile this holiday season. 

In today’s video tutorial you will see how easily these cards came together using some Memento Inks and I also share where my inspiration came from. I also mention these would be great tombstones for Halloween!

I cut a piece of heavyweight white card stock 2 3/4 inches wide by 8 inches long and scored at 4 inches and then used the number 8 arch die within the Spellbinders Essential Arches layering dies. 

To create the card simply fold the card at the score line and place the arch of the die a bit above that folded line so the die is off the top of the card stock and then run it through your die cutting machine. 

The video below has all the details. I hope you enjoy and are inspired to add some inspirational place cards at your table this holiday season.
