 Be You

By DT Ann

There are so many wonderful crafters out there we can watch & learn from. These days we find inspiration, & are encouraged to try new ideas & products, by watching lives on social media. We should take these little nuggets of information & use them in our own creativity. Please don’t forget those you’ve learnt from, its not always possible to mention them, so acknowledge their work, show some love ❤️  

We all inspire each other it’s good to get out your crafty stash & be you…

Blend Squeezed Lemonade ink in the centre, add some Ripe Permission around the yellow creating a halo. 

Finally add some Candid Apple, keep blending where the colours cross over to give a smoother appearance…

Using the leftover ink on your blending tool, add some colour to a piece of card. Stamp a sentiment or word of your choice in black ink. Cut each letter out & mat & layer onto black, then white card… 

Stamp & die cut one of the crowns from Bee Monarchy set, glue this & the swallow onto your card. Mat & layer onto black card & then an 8 x 4 card…
