Another card that can be used for Easter….or you could vary the colour scheme to use for another event such as a Baptism.The cross is heat embossed with gold powder, and the background is dry embossed using the Fancy Fan embossing folder and the Big Shot. I love also using the Brushed Metallic Gold cardstock as an accent. Still time to make this and give it to someone special at Easter!
Speaking of still having time…(what a smooth segue, eh?!) Stampin' Up!'s Starter Kit special has been extended until March 31st!! You can select $194 of merchandise and pay only $125. It's a fantastic way to get more bang for your buck! (hmmm should have posted about this on Frugal Friday, I guess?!) Contact me if you have any questions, or if you're ready to sign up and live in Canada, click here.
Frugal Friday is a semi-regular occurrence here on www.yamstamps.com – showing you how to stretch your crafting dollars! I have a video today to share, showing how to create an Easter card even if you don't have any specific Easter stamps. This card could also work for Baptisms, Christenings, First Communions…you get the idea…
I didn't do a commentary for this video, it's pretty self-explanatory, though I did add some captions.
Four years ago (?!) I shared some easy decorated chocolates in this post HERE. Using easily found bulk chocolates and a bit of cardstock, you can create fun additions for your Easter table – I created bunnies, a lamb and a duck…go to the post and check them out!
I had to repost, they're too cute to get buried in the archives 😉
The downloads can be used in digital photo editing software or in My Digital Studio (MDS). To save confusion, all versions of My Digital Studio to date will be referred to as "MDS" – and more exciting news, Stampin' Up! has drastically dropped the price of this fun software! If you were hestitating at the previous price point, hestitate no more! All the features that were included in MDS2+ are now available as "MDS" for the new low price of $24.95!!
Digital crafting is a great way to exercise your creativity without leaving too much physical evidence! LOL. If you are looking to still have fun and create artistically, but don't have room for tons of supplies (or wish to hide the evidence 😉 I won't tell), this may be the route for you! Once you've created your masterpiece, you can print it out professionally or by yourself, add some embellishments, and share with others!
For one week only, Stampin' Up!'s fabric is 50% off! You could use these extra wide fat quarters for your sewing or crafting projects! Use them with the fabric adhesive plus your Big Shot and dies for an easy iron-on, no-sew project. There's no minimum purchase, BUT quantities are LIMITED so don't miss out on this great deal!!
