 Hi everybody so I've got a few things to show you today so I have stocked up on some more of my distressed oxide inks so I did show this a little bit on my one of my last craft alongs and I think someone said about do I do swatches and this one here is the one that you can download from the ranger website and I just popped the colors onto cardstock and then used a circle punch to punch them out and then I put them on here so this is exactly how many I have now I've already swatched all of these ones and I prefer the new one now they've updated this because it's got the new colors on you can see the speckled egg there and what I like is that now they've done it in like a rainbow order so I can see like all my oranges and reds together the greens into the blues purples into browns and so on and it's just much easier I love that I've got this whole kind that was quite satisfying to have that whole row complete there and but it gives me a really nice view now of all those different blues that I've got and I can clearly see what else I need to get so yeah there's the new crackling campfire as well that's the next one that they've just launched so I guess there's room there for some more but I can probably just I'll just write in those ones at the bottom but yeah so it's on there it's all free just download it and you can also do that with the harmony on the crafters companion website so that's my quick dry which is my other favorite pads that I really like I've got these ones to get these are all sets and these are perfect for obviously they're quick dry and they're great for layering stamps and you just get a really nice crisp image anyways you see me use those a lot and then I've got my oxides for doing techniques and and other things so the colors that I picked up was old paper, forest moss, milled lavender, sponge sugar, rusty hinge that's lovely, tea dye, peeled paint, hickory smoke and salty ocean the tea dye is another good one for distressing I always usually go for the vintage photo but the tea dye is really nice I've used brush corduroy as well actually that's another good one for you know distressing your pages if you're doing like mini albums and things like that so yeah so they're just some new colors like I said I've already put them in there and if I can remember I will link to the ranger website for the downloads here and so you can swatch yours if you want to also this stuff I got from craftstash so I'll be able to link that for you then I picked up some more of the quick dry so I got the lemon tonic, the grasshopper, fryer, brown and plum jam and again I have filled those in now so because I needed that it's lovely actually that lemon yellow is a real true you know really nice yellow actually still looks a bit mustardy in my video there but it's a really bright lovely sunshine yellow so I'm glad I've got those now especially again when I do the layering stamping and stuff so four more of the Harmony Spectre Noir quick dry ink packs then I picked up these I was bullied to get these by Rachel it's all right Rachel I love them but she told me she said you've got to get these they're going to sell out so again if you've been following me for some time you know I really love the Bright Rosa collection I don't think they're doing it anymore I think they're just selling it through now um but the band dies so I've got the snowflake band I've got the sunflower band I've got the flower band I've got the heart band what other one is there the butterfly band they're beautiful very large dies you can do pop-up features with them you can have them as belly bands you can cut them out you know so it's just this lovely big in this case snowflake and I'll just give you an idea you can see that's the band there so you can see just how big that die is pop it on my hand there it's really large but then you get all of your other dies here and they are beautiful I am glad I've got them so you can see look at all the detail I can't wait to start using these for Christmas makes because snowflakes again they're always so different that one there's like got hearts all in the middle of it all that detail so you can cut these two big ones we'll cut into this so you can have two different designs so you can see that design there and then that design there so that's nice that you've got the two or you just have these on their own I mean you can make Christmas decorations that's a really nice size Christmas decoration die cut them a few times in a nice like white glitter card you could pop it in someone's card as a little gift especially if they live a you know far away or somewhere you know you're not going to see them and then you've got this one here you can layer these up because it's this that one's got the heart so that will be similar to that one but you could do something different you know in the center of that one like so and then you've got these smaller ones here and even that one which would look nice you know to kind of layer up you could do another detail in the middle of that one so they are gorgeous I'm glad I've got them and because I've got that one I had to get the border so with all the bands you get a border as well so when I got the sunflower band you have a sunflower border when I got the heart band you get a heart border and so on so this one here it looks so pretty do you know what this would look lovely on my inside out card so when you turn the card inside out this would pop up because I imagine that's going to sit quite nicely let's just see the width of that one you're looking point to point just over five so that would sit nicely because you've got these you know you could put a few more on the ends there those look like the same yeah so they will layer up so you can you could do a snowflake wreath because you could do two of those and then fill in you know and layer up with these other ones you've got that small one there that one's beautiful really nice and then these bits here wonder what those I guess that well there must be for the centres I can't quite work out why you would need those so I need to have a look and on the craft stash website if you go onto bright rosa and click on the thing you'll get all the samples that the design teams would have done um and paula who designed this she's got her you know makes on there as well so you can see so I need to have a look so there they are there maybe they're just meant to be snowflakes maybe that's what it is because they look like snowflakes when you see them cut there but you can see all the patterns in fact I should have showed that one there because you can see the pattern that's that heart one that's really nice oh I see so that's the the outline and then that's the background so that would layer up on top of that and then on top of that and that's the thing the good thing with all of these band eyes is there's so many ways to put them together so yeah tons of inspiration there so yeah really please thank you Rachel for making me buy them okay a couple more things still from craft stash so I picked up some more of the hook and loop these are i really like these ones it's by the dot and dab range which is by trim craft 20 pieces and these are the 20 millimeter so you're two centimeter really handy I use them on a lot of my gift bags and then I picked up some of these foam pads so I thought I'd give something different ago they weren't very expensive at all um usually I get the ones from the pound shop I haven't really been going into the shops I just tried to stay away really so thought I could oh you know go for these instead so we'll see what they're like two millimeter deep 12 millimeter by 12 millimeter 80 medium square pads and you you know I'm always using foam pads in some form on my cards I just like the dimension that they give so these are the hunky dory ones they're permanent and yeah I've got quite a few there to keep me going so I will let you know what I think of those and then I saw this stamp set and I just loved it it's just got such a I love the font I love that they're three big stamps they have that kind of circus feel to them so I thought they'd work well with the circus papers but also on their own and um you've got happy birthday to you congratulations you rule you really did it this time yes good for you way to go I just love that that's all in one stamp and then this one here you're invited to a celebration I think that's really nice as well but it was this main one really the happy birthday to you you know I love making my birthday cards and I just thought it was really nice it's by Inca Inca oh god here we go Inca what is that Inca Inca do Inca do Inca do well the sun's coming in I've just looked at my monitor didn't even realize how'd you say it Inca do Inca do Inca do Inca do Inca do someone will know anyway so that was from cross dash and yeah just think it's really nice so you'll see that feature in cards very soon then I've got the new magazine by simply cards and paper craft so this one dropped through my door not too long ago I actually done the inspiration so this is my card from the front I was super chuffed and I messaged Becky and they said thank you so much for putting my card on the front cover you never know where they're going to use them so it's always a joy to see one as the main feature I absolutely loved making this rocker card excuse that glare they've got lovely sunshine coming through now and I just loved it loved coloring at all and also I've done this one here the bag so straight away you can see you know this is an autumn themed magazine got the beautiful teals which is one of my favorite colors lots of golds and oranges and it's just really really nice and the stamp set you get actually a really nice amount in this one you get this pinecone die which is a tonic studio pinecone okay and then you get this stamp set here so if I'm trying to get out of that glare let me just see if I can take the sun away there we go that's a bit better sorry about that but now you can see all of these wonderful stamps really really good these if you like to make silhouette cards and you like to just stamp in black solid images these are great the trees they've really been nice and you like your sprigs here you've got your leaves really nice sentiments thankful grateful blessed autumn leaves are falling thanks autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let go of to let things go many happy returns just a note shorter days and setting sun set the stage for autumn fun my favorite color is autumn and happy birthday so that one there I just basically stamped and colored loads of all of these kind of leaves and things here and then this one is this stamp here and I stamped that in a very light color so I wanted to get that kind of no line coloring effect so there's no black if you notice with all this there's no black ink stamped at all I've stamped everything like the the green leaves there I stamped them in a green just so it gives you a much softer finish and it was really great fun to make I'll show you a couple of examples inside without giving too much away just using the pine cone die you can see this one here with the tree and then they've stamped the leaves which is that one there all on the tree and then you've got a few where they're falling off so it gives the look you know it's autumn the leaves are falling and you can see there the pine cone along the bottom it's a nice size I'll just measure that one for you you're looking at one and a half by one and a quarter so it was yeah it is it's really pretty so that's those I'll show you my feature because then that's not because I don't like to ever give too much away for those that do receive them because it's a nice surprise but most subscribers would have got this by now but they're the makes there so I've done the box card which is on my channel and this one's a slightly different size if I remember really nice and there's the rocker card there's that bag then I've done this little kind of decorative wrap to go around some chutneys or jams just as nice ideas for when you're giving gifts also done this box here with the little metal handle so it was just really showing off those stamps and you know all the detail in them again there's a close up that's all heat embossed in the center there of the rocker card there's that bag close up you can see I've used the trees stamps in gold embossing powder and then I've just done the because there's there's tiny little leaves here so you can just have them kind of scattered around and there's that acorn so I backed it with teal card and then I cut it again in gold I also done this bottle which would have been inside here so that fits these miniature bottles so that was just a wine bottle that I just took the label off done this wrap with the gold heat embossed sprigs it was this one knows this one here and then again I've done a little cluster with all of the bits and pieces and there's the acorn again popped a little tag on it and then there's that jam jar preserved jar close up which looks really nice and then there's the box there when I show you how to do that one so yeah and there's that Alice and teal again do need to try and get a little bit of that I think so it's a yeah if you like your stamp sets it's a 30 piece stamp set plus you get that die as well so that is issue 208 of Simply Cards and Papercraft and then I don't think I shared this apologies if I have but it's the Joanna Sheen again I done the you know some of the inspiration for this that's why I get sent it but I couldn't remember if it was done in my last you know couple of what did I get but I don't think I have but so I'm sharing it it's it's on the craft slash website it's the latest one this is issue 108 and I'll just show you what you get inside of these for anybody that's not familiar with the box kits so you get your magazine you get your papers which are inside the magazine you get your stamp set that's just this one here really pretty you get this lovely embossing folder and then you get these large edger dies so it's two dies there you got the bottom edge you got the top edge and then you've got the detail and then you've got these corner ones as well so you get a lot of dies there all of those bits and pieces the papers and then just to give you a rough idea of the kind of thing you can make with them here's all the papers here the lovely all like lace effects and stuff very pretty I've done these ones here so a lot of these you'll recognize and it was really good fun to do so I've got the Tristan fold the TP card that was a reverse easel that was a bridge fold and that was a pop out gatefold so you can see that gorgeous edge die which I've done there and I've done on the bottom of that easel and then the corner die you can see that's how it looks there again very delicate lace look and then I just use lots of the you know images that you get here so these lovely big pieces that you can cut out little tags fussy cut some flowers there that was really pretty and then this one here I just done some stamping so that was our heart and I heat embossed you can see the lavender there which is a really pretty die and then there's some butterflies that are fussy cut there's a really like a very delicate very lace seemed this time you know all the background papers have got the lace running through and stuff but that's you know just to give you an idea on how the dies look kind of the color palette as well lots of nice soft pink soft purples and so on but that's the Joanna Sheen and that's the number is that number uh sorry it's the craft essential series issue 108 and then lastly I I did pop to the work so I was this was a while ago and they just started putting all their Christmas stuff out and I thought these are so cute really nice so I want to start doing a few little Christmas makes but obviously I've got my own collection coming out and I know that trim craft have got their Christmas collections which I'm going to want to get my hands on but I do want to do a few little bits right now so I thought I'm going to get this here and it's so fun I love it so I got this pine garlics I like cutting these down and just using them as like little sprigs and stuff just to add some texture and decoration to the cards or the 3d projects whatever I choose to do I thought these were super cute they're a pound for three little wooden Santas I just think he's adorable I love his tiny feet and his little hand there just think very cute and he's there as well then I got this two pack of wooden Merry Christmas some of these can be a bit naff but these look really well made they're nicely finished there's no like rough edges or anything like that and they've been coated you know evenly with that red and yeah just thought they were really nice and then these here you get six and their little glitter Christmas trees you just see there again they've got the adhesive little pads there I probably would stick them using some hot glue but for a pound I thought you know they're nice they're all green some of them are just flipped over and then the paper pad get out there just so there's no glare it just looks really nice to be drawn to the stripes and I was drawn to this one here and the Christmas trees are cute as well you've got your plaid holly leaves that's a nice one with the little toad stalls as well mixed in you've got your robin you got Santa's hat and the sprigs and these are they are they are they're double sided I didn't think they would be you can see there the trees are cute Santa and that's the end you can see them all there again as well and those are 24 sheets of eight designs double sided cardstock 180 gsm acid free so I just thought it was a nice little set there's probably more to it um there's you know this was probably now about a week and a half ago so they've probably got some more in um so I will have a look if I do venture back in there the works is always good you can get this online as
