no rules, just happy crafting
Hey guys! So last month I did a video about making custom masks with the ScanNCut – which is something I really mean to do more often! Today I’ve taken and stamped a whole scene (using masking paper), colored it, and then made it into a fun card!

While Mardi Gras gold and bold colors seemed the obvious inspiration today, I decided instead to go for the softer, more blue side of purple hues and pair it with green colors. In this YouTube video I have walked through the coloring process if you are interested in the full tutorial. I used distress inks – one of my favorite ways to have watercolor fun simply and easily.
A few tips for a project like mine:
Soft blue-ish purple hues + green and blueish green is a classic for a reason – it’s an easy win! There are of course a lot of shades of purple and there are many color and craft project ideas. I’ll be back next month with a new idea – it’s only February but I’m loving this year of purple…
Kids are back to school and I’m back to work. What can I do to get things rolling in the new year? I’m thinking craft up something with love in mind – and a new stamp set. Who says that Valentines have to be red & pink? Not me! I’ve got a tutorial today for this fun Valentine card.
Recently my friends at Ranger Ink sent me a box of their new “letter it” line to test out. Some of these products are versions of long time Ranger favorites – and already I am a fan! Today I have a short video tutorial to show off one of my favorites (embossing powder!) and give you a simple Thank You card idea (’tis the season!)
You know what I enjoy? Gift with purchase. It’s just fun to get a little something extra! My friends at Scrapbook.com are having a cool 12 days of Christmas event. They sent me one of these dies to show/share with you just how cool it is, and please do note that affiliate links are used in this post. Let’s get crafty!
