New Pretty Quick Dies ...

Hi Everybody,

I have been really busy this week with some of the newest dies from Craft Stash. These are part of their Pretty Quick range and these will be on sale TOMORROW on the Craft Stash website.

But these videos will give you a preview of what there is and some ideas of what you can do with them.  I am showing you one card from each collection.

The first one is this Pretty Quick Stained Glass Robin   and in the video I have given you several ideas that you may like to try.

This one is my favorite and I simply used the die cut, done in gold card, as it is and added it to some white card with a Distress Ink effect added

I then coloured behind the Robin with alcohol markers and then added another gold die cut over the top.

For the video  Pretty Quick Stained Glass Wise Men   I used the die cut as a stencil to create a soft pastel card.

But the card shown here is how to keep them simple and easy to make .. no techniques just gold die cuts and white card for an elegant look to your Christmas card

This was the one I created from making a stamp with the die
with the Pretty Quick Stained Glass Candle

This is a soft water colour and I really liked this one once it was done.

I shall keep this one to send to someone over the Christmas period

And last but not least for this card I  used the
 Pretty Quick Stained Glass Angel  to create this card with a stencilled background

So there you have four videos to view and the dies will be on sale tomorrow .. Friday ... with Craft Stash

More tomorrow ...

New Collection - Videos ....

Hi Everybody,

There is a new collection of dies coming to Craft Stash and they are all based around the family theme.  They will help you to create beautiful cards for all family members and include extended families too.

There are five die and two stamp sets in the new  Silhouette Collection  and each die is in two parts. The link will take you direct to them  If you buy more than one set then the dies will mix and match with each other to create different outer patterns.

These are the videos ...

Silhouette Collection - Mother and Baby
This pretty die set could work equally as well for Aunts, Sisters, Friends, Nursery workers as well as other family members

Silhouette Father and Son  could also be two brothers or simply friends fishing together and the sentiments will help you to create the right one for the occasion

Silhouette Grandmother and Child  could also be Great Grandmother and I made the card in gold because all great grandmothers are golden

How do I know this ???? because I am one myself.

I created this next card with a Sun-ray Effect behind the Grandfather and Child as they walk away hand in hand

This is a lovely technique to re create and so I hope you will try it too.

I was really quite pleased with this card once it was finished.

The next one was the Family Silhouette  and this card has all my favorite features to it.

Flowers, Ribbons and Pearls and it's ...  Pink !!!

But in the video I have tried to show you how you can alter the look of this and indeed any of the die cuts with pens or pencils for another look

And it is really easy to do if you imagine the couple walking away from you.

That way there is no need to worry about adding features to them, and the results are quite pleasing on this too.

So there you have the links to all five videos and they will show you the dies and stamps that are available in this new Silhouette Collection

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
