Serene Garden Art Card: Stamparatus, Embossing Mat and Coloring with Brusho Crystals #stampinart
Today's tutorial is a fun one! I did the card for our weekly online demonstrator meetings that we do for a Facebook group. Most weeks we have a theme, this week we were all crazy busy and in lieu of a theme, it was just whatever...... Part of the reason we are busy is that we are preparing for a Demonstrator Training event we have coming up. I am doing a session on Big Shots - so I pulled out a Stamp and Die bundle that I have not used {yet} {at all} since I purchased it {when this … [Read more...] about Serene Garden Art Card: Stamparatus, Embossing Mat and Coloring with Brusho Crystals #stampinart

I am so in love with today's card! Sometimes when I sit down I have absolutely NO idea what I am going to make. Like NOTHING in my head. AT ALL.That was the case the case with this.

Tropical Chic – Stamps and Dies with Something A Little Extra Special!
Today's project is another one of my August Camp projects.

But no more!Today's video is a little quicker - as the card itself is super easy to make! Next week the Bundle will be the featured … [Read more...] about Tropical Chic – Stamps and Dies with Something A Little Extra Special!
