Spectrum Noir Watercoloor Sketch Pad

Just wanted to give you a look at the Spectrum Noir Sketch watercolor pad. I did a summer page and labeled it Warm Thoughts. These pages can be colored with the watercolor makers or the watercolor pencils, for this page I used the pencils with a great out come. Just one thing to remember you do not have to be a card maker to enjoy this. You can color these and frame them for great framed art work and or gifts. This is part of the Today's Special on Aug 16th on HSN, and is also on Auto Ship. If you are looking to start with watercolors this is going to be a great deal for you. You will get everything you need to start plus some. I suggest if you are thinking about getting Auto ship do it, that way you have it coming and if you decide to cancel you can, but you will have that great price locked in.

As you can see you can get great shading, but I will tell you, you will have to layer, you can not get this with just one coat.


I used Glossy Accents on the water to give it a wet look.

As always if you have any questions please let me know and Happy Crafting......

"Hebrews" Coffee Card ( Skipping Stones Design ) Oct 16th Blog Hop

Hi everyone and welcome to Skipping Stones Design's October blog hop. For my card I have decided to use the Coffee stamp #2 . I colored the coffee cup with Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers . This is a Digi stamp so after printing I did wait 24hr before coloring with the Alcohol markers to make sure the ink is completely dry, so I do not have any mixing of the printer ink with the alcohol marker colors. I had a great time creating this card. Please scroll down for pictures, supplies ( link's ), a how toooooo, and a tutorial at the end. Make sure you visit the links below to see other cards made by Skipping Stones Design Team.

Working with the Gemini Apple Core Dies

Tips for sewing Apple Core Shapes..... This will go on Sale on HSN January 24th., they will go fast make sure you get yours. 1st you will have one that will go sideways which is the Con-Caved Core and you will have one the will be long ways. You always want the con-caved Apple Core on top when sewing together. So my Con-caved apple core is the red strips, fold in half and press a seam. The yellow one fold in half long ways and press. Put right sides together and place the pressed seam on top one an other and pin. This is very important to sew straight. Now match up and pin both outside corners. The fabric will be buckled like the picture and that is fine. It should look like this when taking to the sewing machine. Below is a little video on sewing Apple Core Shapes.
