No.82 - Watercolour Wings Card & Team Training Swap - JanB UK Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Independent

[@gloriahosking15]

Hi Jan, love the card, have the stamps and dies. I made a card but used trees instead of bricks, and yes they were on a lean. When asked about it my grandson heard the question and just said " there was a strong wind blowing the day nana made that card, that's why the trees were on a lean, bless him. Please keep them coming, i enjoy watching you create them. Gloria/ grandson. xxx

[@janbcards]

Elaine Higham Hi, Elaine. Love your swap. I'll have to have a go, I think! Best wishes, JanB.

[@emendee1]

Wouldn't it of been easier to use the Stamp-a-ma-jig on the butterflies....My hands can't do as well as you do, so I need all the help I can get....... Have you tried the dryer sheets with the wax paper, it really help all the little pieces come out of the butterfly great. Love your ideas with the brick & the flowers. THANKS........

[@janbcards]

Darlene Falatic Hi, Darlene. Yes, the butterflies would be a lot easier with the Stamp-a-ma-jig but it doesn't really matter if they don't line up 100%. I tried the dryer sheets once but the brand I used were so moist I finished up having to clean my cutting mats and my dies...............but my studio smelled beautiful! I have bought another brand that's supposed to work better but haven't given them a try yet. I know that everybody who tries the dryer sheets. love them! For the time being, I'll stick with waxed paper! Best wishes, JanB.

[@SKnecht1948]

Beautiful!

[@janfrost24]

Hi Jan, and thank you for this lovely card. Why did you use the wax paper with the intricate die please?

[@janbcards]

Many thanks, Jan. If I find that my die-cuts don't come out of the dies easily, I'll use wax paper as it "lubricates" the dies. Some people say you shouldn't do this because it causes a build up of wax but in the 15 years or so I've be crafting, I've never had a problem. xx

[@janfrost24]

Thanks for the explanation x

[@MatidaJane]

I have placed my order-in Australia.

[@janbcards]

+Jane Holmes You'll be pleased you did, Jane. ☺ Happy crafting, JanB.

[@emendee1]

What kind of tweezers do you have? the ones I have leaves marks.... It doesn't look like you have to grip it hard to keep it in place. Loved all 3 ways you did the cards

[@janbcards]

Darlene Falatic Hi, Darlene. Very pleased you like my cards. I bought my tweezers years ago in Boots the Chemist but haven't been able to find them in there since. I did have another lady who asked the same question two or three weeks ago. She shopped around and found some in Sainsburys for £1.99! Kind regards, JanB.

[@georgiakay2]

+georgiakay2 Thanks, Georgiakay2. ☺ Happy crafting. JanB.

I have been trying to order the Bordering Blooms Photopolymer Stamp Set #133660 and cannot find it online. Is it still available? This is a beautiful card and I would like to make it!

[@janbcards]

Hi, Carolyn. Unfortunately, Bordering Blooms has retired! I have a used set for sale. (Please note I'm only allowed to sell to crafters in the UK, Netherlands, France, Austria and Germany - Stampin' Up! rules! Sorry).
