#1 Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – Beautiful Blends and Big Tropical Box Tutorial
I love to make great big boxes and this paper is so perfect for it. I could imagine a big box like this full of nice pampering treatments, perhaps for a new Mum or maybe for Mother’s Day (it’s on 22nd March for us Brits!).
But whatever the occasion, the box and the paper and that stunning stamp set is just lovely.
I have really fallen in love with blends, and as someone not huge on ‘colouring in’, using Blends and having fun is very much a winner for me.
There’s no ‘right or wrong’ way to use them in my opinion, I think you should just play and have fun and see what happens.
If you’ve not yet tried them, consider a blue or pink pair of light and dark blends. Then have fun and play and just experiment.
You could find yourself as addicted as me!
Have a lovely day everyone!
