My Cluttered Corner

It is my favorite time of the month! Time for a New and Must Have Crafty Supplies video.

In these videos, I peruse the new products section of Simon Says Stamp, but the things that strike my fancy and then share them with you all, so you can see them and decide if they are something you'd like to add to YOUR stash!

This month, I am sharing the new Distress color, Saltwater Taffy. I bought the new color in a Distress Oxide Ink (I also buy the refill for that), Distress Paint and Distress Oxide Spray. I am in love with this new color and how beautifully it pairs with Spun Sugar and Abandoned Coral.

I also bought the new Memory Box Vintage Pastel Mirror pad. This 6x6 pad contains heavy weight cardstock mirror or metallix pieces in shades from pearlescent pastels to beautiful metallic tones.

Speaking of 6x6 pads, I also bought the new Lawn Fawn Gotta Have Gingham Pad. I've never met a Lawn Fawn patterned paper pad I didn't like, plus it is a rainbow of gorgeous ginghams!

Speaking of rainbows, the new My Favorite Things Hip Hip Yay pad has them in spades! It is meant to be a birthday pad, but there are plenty of versatile rainbow sheets as well!

Next up, I grabbed the Lawn Fawn Clear and Sparkle Glaze Pens. Love that they come in a pen format for easy dots, lines and covering stamped images.

Also from Lawn Fawn is the How You Bean? Strawberry Add On stamp set and dies. So cute!

I love "hugs" dies for cardmaking and this font is unlike any I've seen so I was happy to add the Freestyle Hugs die from Poppy Stamps to my collection!

When I saw the Lucy's Little Things My Love Mix I knew I had to have it because it seemed to coordinate perfectly with SaltWater Taffy! Love the mix of sequins, pearls and stars!

Last but not least, I grabbed the Studio Katia Crystal Hearts. These are stunning and I had nothing like them in my extensive shaker goodies/embellishment collection!

Of course I created a few cards using the new supplies! Did I mention I love ink blending with Saltwater TaffyDistress Oxide Ink?

But the combination of Spun Sugar and Saltwater Taffy in Distress Oxide Spray is equally amazing! And check out the pearlescent Memory Box Mirror cardstock in the shadow of the hugs die and how it looks with the blue gingham!!

If the strawberries here look dimensional and shiny, it's because of the Lawn Fawn Clear Glaze!

The My Favorite Things patterned papers layer so nicely together!

Hi everyone! I am super excited to be a part of the 2018 Top Ten YouTube Hop where a bunch of crafters got together to share their favorite projects from 2018! I have a giveaway on YouTube so be sure to check out my video here:

But, I wanted to share my projects here too because YouTube will only allow you to link to 5 videos inside a video so I thought I would share the underlying technique and product videos here:

Check out the Queen and Co Pom Poms and this rainbow card here:

 Sadly the Queen and Co Love Jar kit that I used for this card is no longer available. Queen and Co kits sell out fast, so if there is something that you love there, snap it up quickly!

These cards were made for a Stash Bash hop, which is a monthly hop where a bunch of crafters try and use up a stash of a particular type of product. 

Another scrappy friend of mine, Audrey Yeager hosted a fun Summer Scrappin YouTube series and here is my video for that:

And last, but not least, I do a ton of videos over at the Therm O Web YouTube Channel. I can't share them on my YouTube Channel though and I often don't have time to do new ones for my own channel. One of my favorite products of theirs is the Gina K for Therm O Web StampNFoil Line.

I created this video for the Winter 2018 line:

this one for the Fall 2018 release:

and a how to create multi color stamping with the this StampNFoil collection:

So that's it! If you want to see my Top Ten favs from 2018, start with the video at the top and be sure to enter my giveaway. There are a bunch of other crafters involved in the hop and I've listed all their videos in my YouTube description. If you want to dive into the techniques and products used to make my top 10, be sure to check out all the videos above!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

This week, the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge  is to use texture and Tim Holtz products. I had some Tim Holtz Texture Fades that were perfect for creating tons of texture.

I love the way the Distress Oxides look on top of the embossed panels.

Check out this video to see how easy it is to add Distress Oxide ink over embossed backgrounds for a full texture effect!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

The Valentine's and Spring release from Poppystamps is AMAZING! And there are giveaways going on everyday so you definitely want to go over to their blog and check it out! For my post I used the Splendid Stitched Hearts Craft Die.

The hearts are all together one one day which makes it perfect to use both the negative and positive pieces!

You can create a die cut inlay or even a shaker card using both the negative and positive pieces.

I even created a video showing three ways to use this one die:

Be sure to check out my post on Poppystamps if you want to win your very own Splendid Stitched Hearts Die! Check out all the supplies I used linked down below! Thanks for stopping by!

Anyone else been feeling like the victim of the holiday steam roller? So much to do and not enough time, amiright? Well, I have a sweet happy snow day card that reminds me to just sit and look out the window or enjoy a few moments of quiet. Of course we don't have snow here. As a matter of fact we put our AC on today. :( But at night it gets chilly enough to sit under a blanket and look at the stars and pretend they are snowflakes lol!

I used a bunch of new Poppystamps dies from their winter release. All the products will be linked down below if you are interested.

I have a video showing how I created this little snowy window scene and you can check it out here:

Have a happy day, whether it is snowy or not! And thanks for stopping by!

I used the brand NEW Simon Says Stamp Exclusive Poppystamps design for Stamptember Magical Wishes. This is a limited edition stamp set so once it sells out, it will be gone for good! So be sure to grab yours as soon as possible. I will have it and all the other products I used down below. I added the Buttons Galore Sequin Tin called Festival of Lights to create the faux shaker look.
