Joy to the world

'

Austin: I have made this card over and over for a long time over and over again. It's been hard but I really like this card. I did the right colour on the mountains make it worth it. When I was making this card I really enjoyed and had a good time making this card blending the background prepping everything was magnificent.

Sally: As Austin said we have made this card a few times (athough it really isn't very hard, Austin just doesn't like anything where he has to do delicate or fiddly elements on a card. He likes the result though which is why this card has been made over and over again.
What makes this card so good is the Hero Arts Snowy Drifts die set which has these great layering scene dies. We have done all kinds of things with this set, we have made it into a stencil which we used to make this card.
My personal favourite though is when we use the dies like this.

Winter Skating Party


Austin: I enjoyed making this card it was quite hard but I enjoyed making it. I love the watercolour background and the mountains this is an awesome card.
I really like the skating people, looks so cute and I love the sentiment in silver, it really stands out.
The glitter paper is so neat and cute and makes the card shine. Looks so gorgeous

Sally: Our mum came up with the concept for this card. She comes up with these conceptual ideas & then it's really fun trying to turn them into cards.
I especially love the colours on this. I gave our mum Pinterest & got her to pick a colour swatch of how she wanted the animals coloured & I think she did a pretty good job, they look perfect on this background, so well done mum 😊 

Joy and Happiness


Austin: I really like this card because I used the background that has been sitting on the shelf for a while because I didn't know what to do with it.
I like doing glitter paste but I wish it dries faster because I forget what card I wanted to make with the background.
I like the dragon because it's good colours and I like it because dragons are awesome. I like the bit where the dragon and squirrel are having coffee together.

Sally: This card is actually relatively straight forward to put together once the background is done.

First off blend dark blue & rich purple water reactive inks in a semi circle on the upper half of a piece of card laying horizontally. I can't remember exactly which ones we used but I think they were regular Ranger Distress inks.
