This week’s Monday Mash Up really is a blending of various things.
The result though is quite ‘clean’ and classic.
Read More »The key to happiness is quite elusive. According to some rubber stamps that accompanied this month’s issue of Get Stamping the message is clear, “Doing what you like is freedom; Liking what you do is happiness”.
I guess that they have a point.
Anyway, don’t worry, I’m not going to waffle on about philosophy and all that. I think that you can guess that this post is in fact about something that I made with the stamps that I got with the magazine.
Ever have those mojo lows? I know I’ve had a couple over the last few weeks, and having talked to some of you on Facebook and Twitter, it appears that you often have the same problem. I therefore thought that I would start a little mini-series of mojo busting techniques that I sometimes use in the hope that it will help you too :)
Now, I don’t know whether it is my age, or just the need for something tangible in my hand however I have been reaching more for magazines lately than I have the internet. Are you the same? (Seems a bit weird asking that as you are reading this on the internet…)
Anyway, I recently wanted to do a bit of stamping but really didn’t know where to start (that mojo was M.I.A) so I started flipping through my stash of magazines when I came across some great designs from Stephanie De Geus (cool name huh?) in Issue 14 of Creative Stamping magazine…
Remember back when I was demonstrating the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear on Create and Craft TV? Well, it’s back – and so am I :)
There will be new Stamping Gear, new stamps and some other great little craft room helpers to boot – so what’s coming up? Read on my friends, read on.
I often get visits to my blog from countries other than the United Kingdom so in honour of my blog buddies worldwide I wanted to create a card as a bit of a thank you and to say hi to all of you lovely folk.Read More »
Halloween is just once a year and therefore I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to break out the craft stash and make a little something.
I’ve been having another play with the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear and came to the conclusion that quite a few of the designs that I was making looked like doilys, so I thought that I would explore this route and see what I could create.
A couple of weeks back I picked up several clear stamps at my local Hobbycraft store and, having a day to play, I thought that I would use them with the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear and see what I could create.
You may have recently seen in my post about UFOs that I had made a start with an idea that I had a while back about using the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear together with Parchment Craft.
This post will hopefully give you Inkadinkadoodlers another idea for using the system, and also help me clear another UFO.
I’m seeing single layer stamping in a number of places right now, so I thought that I’d give it a go and see what I could come up with.
Here is an overview of what I did and how I did it.
A question that I get a lot is how to go about using clear or unmounted rubber stamps with the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear.
Indeed it was a question that I asked myself when I first got the system and now I’m pleased to say that I have found a couple of solutions.
Here is a quick talk through a couple of them.
A couple of weeks ago I decided to have a go at making dimensional flowers using the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear from EK Success Brands.
I was pleasantly surprised when I realised just how easy it was so I though that I’d write a little blog post on how I did it in case you would like to give it a go too.
So far I have been creating some quite sizable projects with the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear from EK Success however a lovely lady called Suzanne, from Australia, recently contacted me via my Facebook page and asked how she would go about creating smaller projects with the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear.
Through some experimentation I have discovered that size doesn’t matter and that you can work on projects all the way down to an Artist Trading Card (about 3.5 inches by 2.5 inches) so I thought I’d share some ideas with you all.
Here is another card sample that I made for the recent run of Spellbinders shows on Create and Craft TV using the … die set.
During previous demonstrations of the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear on Create and Craft TV I have mostly focused on the circular cogs and wheels so I thought that I would take a moment to give you some quick ideas for using the square and rectangular cogs and wheels.
