First online card class

 I had challenged myself to get out of my comfort zone and do YouTube videos. I have made 17 so far now. Next I challenged myself to do an online class and I'm going to keep setting goals for myself. 

 One of the best parts of being a Stampin Up Demonstrator is sharing tips and tricks I have learned. Stampin Up is a community of teaching and sharing what we know.
This is my first online class and I'm using the early pre-order Ornate Garden Suite. This suite is versatile and you will have so many options.

For the on line class you will get 6 cards, 2 of each design, the cost is $24.00 and $3.00 shipping if you need it. If you are one of my down line the class is $20.00, plus shipping if needed. After payment is received for the class I will send you the 3 videos and PDF's you will need to assemble the cards. In the video I also give you tips for using the Border dies in the Ornate Thanks bundle. These videos are not posted and are only available when you purchase the class. Send me an email or comment on my Facebook page to get a kit.

Using wax paper in your craft room and not the kitchen! Pigment Sprinkles with tips.

I have a new video for you this morning. When I made the video of the beauty abounds butterfly set, I mentioned you could use wax paper to make cutting and removing the little pieces from the intricate die. Take a look and let me know what you think. If you order the bundle I will take the 10% off and send you a card that I made and show in the video.

Take your pick tool storage

When I received the die brush for my Take your pick tool, I decided I needed a new way to store it.
I started with one of our wide stamp cases
Next, I added some Bird ballad designer series paper .
 I had my husband  drill two holes on the side of the case and added a handle I found on marketplace.
What do you think of the result?
I love it, it can be stored on a shelf and then carried around, no more losing it.

Brusho Crystals Technique with video

I had a request to do a video highlighting the Brusho Crystal which were the original crystals before the Pigment sprinkles that are on the retiring list.
I love this technique and it couldn't be easier, a little messy but life is messy, have fun.

This is the card I made from the finished art piece, very simple but elegant.

Stamparatus hinge stamping

I love the Stamparatus and I wanted to show the hinge stamping technique as well as highlighting the Ornate Garden suite that you can pre-order this month.
The Ornate Garden Suite will be in the annual catalog when it goes live in June, but Stampin Up has made it available as a pre-order.

Stamparatus highlights and details

For this video I wanted to highlight the Stamparatus, this is one tool from Stampin Up you need to have.  I kept wanting to call the foam sheet , fun foam and then I couldn't concentrate on what I was doing. Don't you hate it when your brain refuses to listen to you when you're working.
Anyway on with the show......
