The other week I got contacted by a pair of lovely ladies who were eager for me to check out their glitter range.

Pfft, I thought, glitter is glitter, right? Wrong. Why? Well, to explain that I just had to ‘force myself’ to revisit resin and spend some time experimenting.

Fancy seeing what I made?

This week I received an exciting challenge from Picket Fence Studios. A bundle of their August release products landed on my door mat with the challenge – make something!

Not one to turn down a challenge I sat down in the new studio to have a go…

In the final part of this series of posts, intended to announce the launch of the new Delightful Sentiments Cut Foil and Emboss dies, I decided to focus on one particular die and give you an idea for using it outside of papercrafts.

May 20, 2019August 29, 2020 John - Gentleman Crafter7 Comments

A while back you couldn’t move on the internet without stumbling across someone, including me, raving about paint pouring. It is fun, creative and appeals to all facets of my creative side.

Just lately though a new kid has appeared on the block. Resin Art with Alcohol Inks. But, what is it and will I be doing it?

Tell The Story

After a wee break from these, and bearing in mind how much I have been waffling about new stuff recently, I thought that this one was a perfect finale to March.

Live In The Moment

A message to all of us in this one.

Things can get a little fraught, a little tense and a little nerve-wracking but, if we live in the moment, these things will diminish and disappear.

Make A Difference

Looking at the blog content that I have already put out this year, I have realised that I have been a busy bee indeed!

At My Happiest

February 26, 2019February 16, 2019 John - Gentleman Crafter17 Comments

It’s been a while, but I can confidently say that I am at my happiest in a long LONG time. In addition, I am never happier than when I am making and creating, which is more often these days – perhaps a link there?

Hallo, all. A thought occurred to me the other day that I have gathered a fair few newbies over the last few years that may have missed out on some of the stuff in the archives.

So, as the exciting month of March rapidly approaches time will be limited for me to create new content so I thought that it was a serendipitous opportunity via which I could dive into the archives to share some older, but still very popular, videos and tutorials.

Just before I do though, I have one technique that I would like to share with you and it’s double trouble as it CAN be done on the Scan N Cut, but, I will be asking you the question, should it … ?
