Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets make it so easy to attach detailed thinlit pieces to your projects. My video shows the basic use of these sheets in creating this card, and it also goes on to show how I used the adhesive sheets to piece the colors on the mittens in the … Continue reading

Colorful Seasons
The sponge brayers work beautifully to spread ink on our Glossy Cardstock. I created this ombre background with Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, and Crushed Curry. They look a bit lighter and brighter than the cardstock in the same colors. I used Archival Black ink to get the crisp dark greeting. … Continue reading

Card Front Builder Thinlits
You don’t have to use the Card Front Builder Thinlits for Christmas. I used them with a greeting from “Lemon Zest” for today’s birthday card, and I went out of my way to include bling on this masculine card. I ended up using Copper Foil, Copper Metallic Thread, and Glitter … Continue reading

Big on Birthdays Present
