Here's a handy little dimensional tip.

This tip has been around for a while, so you may have seen it before. But for those who haven't...

If you've ever found yourself squinting at white dimensionals trying to work out whether you've removed the backing, this one's for you!

Simply colour the backing sheet with a highlighter or marker before you start using them. Once the coloured backing is removed, it's easy to see which dimensionals are ready to go and which ones still need the backing taken off.

I first noticed this when my friend Anna Wheaton was doing it and thought it was such a clever idea.

Have you seen this tip before?

Here's a little sneak peek of what we'll be creating in my June 27 card classes 👀

I had an idea for a card using Flip Flaps and, while doing some research, discovered a design by Patty Bennett that inspired me. After working through the measurements in both imperial and metric, I now have a class ready to share with you .

The sample shown here isn't quite finished, but it will give you an idea of what you can create.

The best part? You can personalise your project. If you have someone special in mind for the card, let me know their favourite colours, hobbies, interests or style, and I'll do my best to put together a kit that's tailored to them.

Full class details coming shortly, but save the date:
Saturday 27 June

I'd love to know, who would you make a card like this for?

Ever stamp a sentiment and then wonder how you're going to cut it out? 🤔

If you don't have a die or punch that fits quite right, this is a handy little trick to create a custom shape that perfectly fits your sentiment.

Have you tried this before?

Do you blend off onto scrap paper first?

I used to as well, but these days I often use a clear block or glass mat instead. It lets me reuse the excess ink I've already picked up and still get a smooth blend.

Have you tried either of these techniques?

This month's Product of the Month (POTM) has nailed the cuteness factor.

The POTM council have put together some really lovely designs.

With a few different colouring techniques that work well with this stamp set, I'm curious, what's your favourite way to colour?

🖊️ Stampin' Blends
✏️ Watercolour Pencils
🎨 Water Painters and Ink
🌸 Soft Pastels (chalk)

Or maybe a mix of a few or something else entirely?

Make Paper Trimming Easier ✂️✨

Tiny cardstock strips can be surprisingly tricky to cut neatly 😅

Here are two little tricks I use to stop the cardstock moving and help get cleaner, straighter cuts ✂️✨
