Simple Sunday #21 - Watercoloring

Now I am back from Thailand and today I am sharing a new Simple Sunday card. I know it's technically Monday today, but I didn't have enough time yesterday to finish the editing so I'll just have to post it today instead.

The card I am making today is a clean and simple card with just a colored image. I usually don't make cards like this, but every now and then I like to change things up and do something different.

I also filmed a tutorial for this card that you can find on my YouTube channel or here below.

Simple Sunday #20 - Tiny Hearts

Finally I am back with a new Simple Sunday video. I haven't posted anything in about a week, but I have been really busy and there just wasn't any time to create. But now finally I am back again with a new simple project.

This card is made using a heart die set from Whiff of Joy and some old scrap paper that I have been saving for years. Some of them are probably more than 10 years old. Doing projects like this is a great way to use up all of the small pieces of paper that we keep saving.

Simple Sunday #19 - Die-cuts

Today I have another Simple Sunday project for you again. For this card I used a die from Tim Holtz and some patterned paper. I also ended up making two different versions of this card. I first made this card on a kraft colored cardbase, but then I though I needed some more color and cut the cardbase and added the front on an orange cardbase instead. I think this made the card a little bit more interesting.

In the video I am also talking about how I have been thinking about having a giveaway with some stuff I don't use anymore. But I am not sure if anyone is interested in getting "old" stuff? I have a lot of stamp sets, and things like embossing powders, chipboard and project life stuff that I never reach for anymore or have a lot of extra copies of. Some of it is never used and some things, like the stamp sets, are most likely used once for stamping in my inventory binder. My project life core kits are used, but there are so many cards in a kit that I won't ever use them all. Most of the things are bought many years ago though and is possibly not available anymore, but there are a few pretty new things as well. If you would like to win things like this and want me to have a giveaway please let me know by commenting on the video, this blog post, or just give the video a thumbs up and I'll get a few packages together and have a give away.

Simple Sunday #18 - Embossing

Another Sunday and it's time for a new Simple Sunday project again. This time I did something really fast and simple with one of my favorite embossing folders from Tim Holtz. This embossing folder has a very small pattern and is perfect for cardmaking. I often find that normal embossing folders can have such a large pattern that a small card get too busy.

To hide the edge of the embossing I used a black ribbon and wrapped that around my card. I also used a flower die set to cut out some scalloped circles and added my sentiment in the middle.
