I Believe in You!



Hi guys happy Saturday hope you are all having a lovely weekend! I have another tutorial today using the fab new 
unicorn stamp set Unicorn in Training.
I began by cutting out the A6 Hooray Panel Die and grabbing my Magical Snowflakes Stencil. The stencil is a lot wider than the card I cut out so I added some washi tape on the back of the card and stuck it to the stencil that way then taped the whole thing to my craft mat so it wouldn't move. I used a combination of Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade and Wilted Violet Distress Oxides for the colour. Then to add the sparkle I went over the top with some Cosmic Shimmer Stellar Ice Lunar Paste using a Palette Knife. After I carefully peeled off the stencil I made sure to wash it straight away otherwise the paste will dry to the stencil and spoil it. I  set this to dry for a good 24 hrs just to be on the safe side.
Meanwhile I coloured and cut the rest of the elements the Hexagons are from the Bee Happy Stitched Nesting Dies I used the two larger dies in the set. I coloured up the rainbow and the jumping unicorn and cut them out and stamped my sentiment directly onto the smaller of the hexagon dies. Then attached the unicorn and rainbow onto the hexagon as well. I popped this on top of the larger hexagon using foam tape to give it some added dimension. I also cut a strip of velum to add some detail behind the hexagon but doesn't cover up those glitter snowflakes completely. I folded this around the glitter base and stuck it around the back so you cant see the tape. Then added the hexagon on top this helps to stick the velum too.
Using the A6 panel as a guide I cut out another rectangle slightly larger, then blended some Picked Raspberry and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide on top and spritzed it with some water. Then popped the A6 panel on top and stuck it to my base card. It was a pretty quick and simple card to make but looks so pretty especially with  the glitter!





Colourful Hugs



Hello everyone, DT Annalisa here and today I am sharing a colourful card featuring the new Scattered Hearts Stencil as well as some other Time For Tea Designs goodies. This heart stencil is just perfect to help spread some cheer to your friends and loved ones.
I used my blender brushes to apply Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, Picked Raspberry and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide inks to the Scattered Hearts Stencil. I then removed the stencil and used the same colours with a much lighter pressure to add colour to the white card stock background that remained. To finish the background I added splatters of water and picked it up with some paper towel.
I stamped the bear and sentiment from the Pandamonium Party stamp and die cut them out using the coordinating die set. I then die cut the two frames from the Smile Sentiment and Scalloped Frame Die Set from some heavy white card stock.
I adhered the two frames to the scattered hearts background with liquid glue. I then stuck down the panda and the sentiment. To finish the card I added some Crystal Stickles to the heart on the envelope.

Die-cut the sentiment in white cardstock and the shadow in vellum. Adhered it to the card.

Unicorn in Training Shaker Card - Video Tutorial

Hello everyone it's Elaine here sharing a video tutorial using some of the adorable new products from Time for Tea Designs April 2020 release.
I have created a shaker card using the new 'Unicorn in Training' stamps and co-ordinating dies along with the new Scene-It 6x6 stencil to create beautiful clouds for the backdrop of my sky scene.

To create the shaker element I used two square dies from the Quilted Square Nesting dies.  I love this die set as you can create a variety of sizes of square panels but also use the dies in conjunction with each other to create so many frame size combinations.  

The images were coloured using copic markers.  I drew inspiration for the colour choice from the clouds (chipped sapphire distress ink) and the pinky purple stars in the shaker mix.  The main colours I used were:

Rainbow/Clouds: RV69, RV66, RV63, RV10, RV00, BG70
Unicorn: B66, B63, B60. C3, C1, C00, 0

Hope you all have a lovely crafty day! Elaine x

Hip Hop Hooray!



Hi guys design team member Natalie here and I wanted to share with you how I stretched my Say Cheese cover plate die and turned it into a cute rabbit burrow. I've been wanting to create a card like this since I got my cute bunnies and then when I saw the cheese die I knew it would be a perfect fit!
I began as always by cutting out the cheese die then making a rectangle the same measurements to fit underneath. The bottom rectangle I blended with different shades of brown Distress Oxide ink and the cheese die cut with shades of green darkening up the colour around the edges. I wanted to add some grass so I stamped the one from the Moovelous stamp set. I used my clear stamping block so I could bend it around the holes so it looks like tufts of grass growing out of the top. I stuck them together using some foam tape so I could pop my worm and bunny underneath.
I stamped out the bunnies and coloured them up with warm grey oxides and added a little pink to their cheeks. I also stamped out the worm and quite a few carrots as I wasn't sure how many I needed.
Then I just started to lay everything out I stuck my two backgrounds together using some foam tape so I could pop my worm and bunny underneath.
I chopped one of the carrot in two to give the impression it was growing in the ground. Then just added a few scattered round 
The sentiment I heat embossed the sentiment on some black card using white embossing powder popped it on the top and then popped my card onto the card base and my card was done. 
I hope you all have a great day and liked my card for today happy stamping!
