I finally used the gilded leafing enough to feel comfortable with a demonstration of it in the trailer! Watch me corral these little floaty bits of golden goodness.

I create three backgrounds, share the swap I created but have not finished yet.

I have a couple more easy ways to use this product and I will reveal the finished projects from each demo at the next video. I believe...

This video included a super easy technique that works great for someone with few materials, or if you just need to crank out alot of cards fast. I have yet another way to control spools of twine, perhaps this will be the final solution for me!

The video finished up with a Christmas swap. I really like this style of card and I add one last embellishment so I can add it to my stash for...

I cannot believe that July is over. What a month! I ended up spending time with Libby three different weekends. That girl knows how to craft! We had so much fun:D Ok, now on to Winter Is Coming. This video is a new format that I will be doing periodically through the season. Starting this week episodes will post every Wednesday through Christmas. 

I received so many awesome swaps that I...

What a whirlwind the month of July has been! I received my Paper Pumpkin kit the day I arrived at Libby's house, we crafted twelve hours to finish all of the swaps, most of that time was libby helping me, Thank you so much Libby!

Then off we went to the NC Demos quarterly meeting and we crafted all day and evening on Saturday. I haven't seen Libby for three years so I ended up staying...

This video walks through the design and execution process for a masculine beach themed card. I ended up making 22 of these with alot of help from Libby! (THANK YOU SO MUCH!)

I entered this card in the advanced card competition and it was the favorite!

See how I work the Brother to save hours of time. It was able to cut 48 or so shells in 5 minutes!

I walk through the second shoebox swap which is a thanks card using all new annua catalog products..

In the video I demo how I setup for mass heat embossing. Then I use the new brush to swirl on color over white heat embossed images to make a floral background. This is a very cheerful card. 

Here is the second swap video which is also a Winter Is Coming Wednesday episode. I walk through three versions of this swap. There's a tip on how to unravel some trim. Libby and I created these using an inspiration pin-> link to pin. 

I cannot believe how fast time flies! We have driven over 3400 miles from Arlington, Washington to northeast of Charlotte, North Carolina. We are enjoying our stay at the Forest Lake RV Resort, which is at Thousand Trails preserve. 

I have been so, so busy with the swap projects that I will be sharing with fellow demonstrators at the North Carolina Demonstrators quarterly meeting. It is...

This kit is very versatile! With little effort you can make masculine cards using the provided materials. In the video I show how I cut the supplies into smaller pieces to get more cards out of the kit. I used very few added supplies which are listed below. Enjoy!
