More Colouring Techniques!!

Hi everyone,

Sorry, meant to post this earlier!!!

Today on The Craft Barn Blog I have a project using Paper-Soft-Color.

Many of you will remember me demoing this and it is a truly lovely

 product to work with.

It is used with sponge applicators and many find it easier than using inks.

I made a card for todays project and if you hop on over to the blog

you will see how I made it!!!

Hope you have a good weekend, is it going to stay dry?????

I doubt it!!!!

See you soon,

 at their summer sale.....

There are lots of goodies to entice you!!!!!!

Have fun!

Phew!! What a busy weekend!! Two days of demoing at The Craft Barn. It was so nice to see all you lovely ladies, I have missed not being there for a while.
As usual there were lots of demos to inspire everyone and we were kept busy both days. Unfortunately it meant I didn't get time to visit the other ladies to see what they were up to but I'm sure I will see the samples at the shop and on the blog.
I was demoing Papersoft Color and using my Cuttlebug with various dies by Spellbinders and Marianne D.
The card I am posting tonight is my version of the tent card, with snowflakes stamped onto the white card and embossed with clear embossing powder. Papersoft Color in Light Blue and Cobalt Blue was used. I had cut out the aperture with one of the labels nestabilities. The same resist technique was used for the wording and the label cut with another die, I think it is from Nellies oblongs. Ribbon was used to attach it to the card. My snowflake in the middle was one of the Marianne D snowflakes, cut from glitter card four times, scored in half and all stuck together. I hung it using jump rings and attached it to a cocktail stick up in the top of the card. Really simple!! Not sure how I would post it though!!!
The little silver domes were metallics, think I may have lost one in transit!!
Well, I'm off to bed for an early night.
See you soon,

OMG how long is it since I was here last!!!! The Extravaganza went well, we were all kept very busy, particularly the girls in the shop. It was a fantastic weekend and I thoroughly enjoyed it even though I was sooo tired after!! Next one is in September so I have a little time to recover. Sandy is already booking demonstrators and it is looking good!!
I was demoing the lovely Papersoft Color. It is so nice to use and I have now had to buy all the colours and all the stamps. I'm working on collecting all the matching Paper Pens and Gloss Gels now too, lol is there ever going to be any money in my bank account????
I've also been working hard on the Artymiss Website adding products which has kept me very busy for the last few weeks.
At the same time we are having a koi pond built in the garden so there is teas and coffees to be made constantly or cold drinks as the weather has been so hot. The builders are doing a fantastic job and have worked solidly through all this heat. I was worn out just making the drinks!! I'll show you some pics when it is done, the neighbours think we are mad and say it should be a swimming pool not a pond. If the summer was always like this I might agree.
I am going to put some of the cards from the extravaganza on here to show you the lovely colours of the Papersoft Color. Remember all you need is white card.
The first is using a Crafty Individuals stamp for the main image and a little border stamp from the Papersoft Color range. The colours were violet and lilac, probably a little rose in there too. The second card is using cobalt blue and magenta, stamps again from the Papersoft Color range and a peel off. So quick and easy. The little dots are Glossy Gel in Graphite.
See you soon,
