Hi! Welcome back to my Let's Get Creative with Dies Video series!!  If you have not been following along from the start, feel free to jump back to THIS POST to get all the details! But here is a brief rundown...
Thru the month of MARCH I will be posting a video tutorial every Friday. These videos will be using Spellbinders™ Paper Arts die templates and other products.

And although these things are AMAZING... there is even MORE!! :)

Today we are going to play with Molding paste and canvas, as well as Tattered Angels glimmer mists! Here's what I have created... I kept the design simple, since the background is the focus...

Well, Rufus, used to be your newest follower, now it is me! I love your videos and plan on tuning in each week! I would absolutely love to win the card you made! I loved having you show us just how you did it. No need to point out errors - like you said, there are no mistakes in art! We would have never noticed because the end result was wonderful!

 

So Marianne, congrats!! Please email me your mailing address! tinamcdonald(at)xplornet(dot)ca

 

Until Next time...
