USE YOUR SCRAPS. Here is what you can do with a bunch of leftover strips… ✂️

1 Comment / birthday cards, Uncategorized / By

Happy Wednesday my friends,

I recently finished a dozen cards order and as a result, I ended up with a bunch of strips. I knew it well, that if they will go to my ridiculously overgrown pile of scraps I will probably not reach for them again or at least anytime soon… So here is what I did instead

I had so much fun while making it and most importantly rather then putting away all these strips I’ve made 3 additional cards. I’m super happy and proud of how they turned in:

This lovely embossing folder comes from

Creative Stamping Magazine 107: UK / US

For subscription please use the link: https://tidd.ly/3GVuWeA

And here is the very last card I’ve made with the remaining two strips and gorgeous sentiment from Card Making Magic:

How to make a wedding pop up box with floating elements

Leave a Comment / box / By

Today is just a quick post as I wanted to share with you the wedding pop-up box I’ve made some time ago during one of my Facebook live classes

LINK TO THE VIDEO:

https://youtu.be/DRjPl_FSYS0

You will need two pieces of A5 size card, score it both at 4 and 8 inches (10 and 20 cm) on the longer side and 3 and a half-inch (9cm) on the shorter (on the second piece make the scoring line only on half of it leaving one side unscored). Trim a piece of the flap and make a cut from the top just until the scoring line as shown in the video. Glue both pieces by adding adhesive to the flaps and your pop-up base is ready.
This was made from some of my digital papers, which are available here on my Buy me a coffee page:

I’m also having some of my digital designs available at Craft Stash now, and I would love it, if you could take a minute to have a quick look at these (each paper pack contains 24 printable papers in 12 designs for £3.99!)
UK: https://tidd.ly/3LaCo6L / US: https://tidd.ly/3uqSN01

Today and tomorrow you also have an amazing opportunity to get these amazing dies for less than half of the price:

GET 60% off on the ribbon and lace collection, use code EDGE60:

US: https://tidd.ly/375W7pi

Here are some of the cards I’ve made with these love dies from Card Making Magic as wel as some of my free downloadable papers:






Craft Stash has even used one of my cards in their promotion advertisement on their page, which made me super happy and proud:

MY FIRST DIGITAL COLLECTION

3 Comments / Uncategorized / By

Hello my friends,

There will be lots of changes coming to my page but for now, I wanted to share with you my first digital collection, which I’ve designed thinking of Valentines, but also all weddings, anniversaries, welcome baby and many more occasions.

The collection contains 14 papers: 7 designs and 7 matching inserts.

The entire collection is available in one set for a very affordable price of £6 – less than 50p per design (considering that you can print it in as many copies as you like), but I’m also giving you the option to buy papers individually and pay only for the designs you like the most.

I’m also having a matching set of labels, which contains 80 digital elements.

The entire collection is available on my new page, which I’m just starting to build up and I wish to warmly invite you there

https://dropofsunshine.art/digital/

Or you can see all the papers on my Extras section of my Buy Me a Coffee page:

https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dropofsunshine/extras

The money raised from selling this collection and all others which will be coming shortly will help me to keep continuing to design and share more printable papers with you (including free ones too!)

And for that, I’m so grateful for all your support for my family and my creations.

If you will be looking forward to seeing some inspirations made from these papers, check my free Facebook live classes:

And here you can see a couple of my projects made from these papers:

one year anniversary of my design papers

Leave a Comment / Uncategorized / By

Hello my friends,

I hope everyone are well. I’ve not had a chance to post anything on my blog for ages but I’ve been super busy and a lot of things has been going on in my crafty live.

Here is a quick video which is an introduction to what I have planned for tomorrow:

That was my very first ever paper collection I ever shared:


all these designs are now available at:

Buy me a coffee

(I switched to BMC to help out my budget as I’m spending long hours designing these free papers plus additionally the platform provides me with statistics so I know how many friends are downloading my papers, which will be handy to estimate how much interest is in my designs if I would ever decide to produce a hard copy. There are no obligations to pay for my free papers or to use options to buy a coffee, this is simply a gesture of support to a creator)

And here is my card made out of these Autumn collection papers

Thank you so much my friends for all, watching my videos and sharing them.

You can also support my creations by using one of my affiliate links. By using one of those links or any other one I’m giving you here or underneath my YouTube videos and the rest of my social media, you are supporting me and my family as Craft Stash is paying me a little % for every time you are buying anything from the store by visiting it via one of my links, for which I’m very grateful as this helps me to add to my family budget.

Good morning my friends!

I’m hoping you are all well, and I wanted to invite you all to my Sunday Classes

The Live will be transmitted on my Facebook page as well as my Craft World expert page:

We are going to be playing with composition, doing fun and fancy projects and all sorts of creations, where I will be sharing with you my approach to creating.

For this Sunday I wish to show you a tunnel shadow box card and I will be creating this one with the help of my own design papers from the collection called “Dear Friend”. I’ve chosen the last page 8a/8b and I will need 5 pieces of 8×8 card.

You can use your own papers from your stash, but if you wish to download this free design paper they are available here:
https://www.facebook.com/media/set…The list of supplies for this live is:
👉5 pieces of 8×8 design paper (you can get my free printable papers from FB or Craft World)
👉1 piece of 12×12 cardstock
👉scoring board
👉die cutting machine
👉large nesting dies – circle or any other shape you have like square, hexagon, etc (if not having dies and machine just take mathematical compass and scissors)
If you looking for dies like that to buy you may want to check these
Shop UK: https://tidd.ly/2SrD8yP
Shop US: http://shrsl.com/31o5q
👉lots of foam tape
👉hot glue
👉elements to finish of your choice: flowers, sentiments, ribbons…Once the live is over I would love to see your creations, use a #dropofcrafting to mark your artwork and I will pick one, who will receive my piece I’ve created during our session.

I just wanted to give you all a heads up about the massive sale on nesting dies Craft Stash has for you over this weekend. There is plenty of different offers too, but basic shapes are the one we use in our everyday crafting and the prices they are on now (30% off) is something you cannot beat!!!

Using a large stamp as a focal point

Hey friends!

As I’ve put it in my last video, here is my once a weekly tutorial for you. I’ve decided to leave my comfort zone a little bit and play with a colour, which normally wouldn’t be my first choice.

I wanted to share with you the video tutorial I’ve created playing with some of my favourite exclusive brands from Craft Stash, the video premiere is scheduled for 8 pm BST (and this would be the time I will be scheduling my videos from now on)
