My Cluttered Corner

Today's video is the latest episode of Support Small Cardmaking Businesses and features Trinity Stamps and their Blooming Bunch Stamp Set.

The first technique involves heat embossed resist ink blending and shares the NEW Tim Holtz Domed Ink Blenders that I will be reviewing in my next New & Must Have Crafty Supplies video coming this weekend!

I also share some very basic Copic marker techniques and ways to color with alcohol makers that requires no advanced skills.

And finally, there is one of my favorite techniques...painting with Distress Oxide refills on dark color cardstock.

Check out this video to see all three techniques and all three cards. 

I especially love Hero Arts red rubber cling mounted background stamps because they really create a crips, fabulous image.

I don't know about you, but sometimes I really struggle with layered stamping. The one company whose layered stamps never seem to give me trouble is Sunny Studio's. They are super easy to line up AND they create the most detailed, realistic images!

Today I am sharing my third episode of Support Small Cardmaking Businesses and this week I am highlighting The Stamp Market.

They have absolutely gorgeous colors of cardstock and some beautiful stencil designs so I decided to combine the two and share 7 different ways to use stencils on color cardstock.

I also grabbed a few dies from The Stamp Market and my favorite embellishment ever, Clear Droplets.

Oh and I tried out their organizers for stamps and dies, but you'll have to watch the video to see those! 

P.S. if you like outtakes, be sure to watch to the end lol!

Stay safe, stay healthy and I'll see you again soon!

For today's episode of Support Small Cardmaking Businesses,  I am focusing on My Favorite Things (MFT). I've loved their stamps, dies, stencils, patterned paper and more for years! In today's feature, I am using MFT cardstock and 2 die sets to mass produce 4 cards with no stamping! 

I love how cute, bright and colorful cards can be even with no stamping involved!

And even with just a few die sets and some colorful cardstock you can create very different looks:

Check out my video for some tips & tricks on how to mass produce cards with die cutting.

All the products I used are linked down below and in the YouTube description! Thank you for helping me to support the small cardmaking businesses that we love! Stay safe, stay healthy and I'll see you soon!

I've been thinking a lot about how hard it is for small businesses to survive during these unprecedented times. I support local businesses by ordering take out when I can, shopping at small grocery stores and more, but I wanted to do something specifically for the small cardmaking businesses that I know and love.  So I've started a brand new YouTube Series. Each week I will highlight a small papercrafting business I know and love. I will purchase several products and then share how I use them. First up this week is Pretty Pink Posh.

I've loved their sequins ever since their business began! Now they also have the cutest stamps, dies and even stencils!

If you are interested in any of the supplies I used they are all linked down below. Stay safe, stay healthy and keep supporting those small businesses when you can!

Much love,
