Bumbleberry Blog — Cards

Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. We often by a product with a project in mind, but then struggle to use it for another design. Here I have 5 cards showing you how to stretch your supplies for multiple cards designs. One tip I find that helps is to choose a colour scheme to create with and then change the card base sizes and shapes to create variation. You'll also find these cards in the newly release Die-cutting Essentials magazine, issue 66 released on the 25th of June. So let's get started! Written...

Well Hello Crafty Friends, I'm very excited to bring you my card today. I have a two year old granddaughter, whom is obsessed with Baby Shark. When I saw the latest release from My favorite Things I knew I had to have this die. I will be using it in other ways this month, but first of, I created this card for our Amelia.     Product   MFT Baby Shark Die  https://www.bumbleberrys.co.uk/collections/my-favorite-things/products/die-namics-baby-shark?variant=32542590894162 MFT Sharky Sentiments https://www.bumbleberrys.co.uk/collections/my-favorite-things/products/sharky-sentiments MFT Make Waves Stencil or Ocean Motion Stencil https://www.bumbleberrys.co.uk/collections/my-favorite-things/products/ocean-motion-stencil Gina K Inks Blue Lagoon Ink and Stencil Brush https://www.bumbleberrys.co.uk/collections/gina-k-designs/products/gkd-blue-lagoon-ink-cube?variant=22346540023890 Gina K Passionate Pink...

Hello Crafty Friends, I hope your well, and crafting your way through this difficult. I am trying to work, with some colour theory at the moment. My favorite place to find, colour combinations at the moment is through Pinterest or Pattern Papers in my stash.    So after being inspired I came up with a beautiful masculine combination.     I love pulling inks from my collections and seeing how they work together.     Products   MFT You Float My Boat  https://www.bumbleberrys.co.uk/products/you-float-my-boat?_pos=1&_sid=0a6232f1a&_ss=r MFT All About Dad Die Namic's https://www.bumbleberrys.co.uk/products/die-namics-dad?_pos=1&_sid=92e1e6519&_ss=r   MFT All About Dad Stamps (optional) used for Happy...

Good Morning, How fantastic is the weather a the moment. I decided to pullout the distress pads, as I'm always pulling the oxides out but never the original. So I thought let go back to the basics. I know I've probably shown this technique before but I just love it as I'm not good at water colouring.      Products Concord and 9th Stuck On You Stamp Set https://www.bumbleberrys.co.uk/collections/concord-9th/products/stuck-on-you A selection of Distress Ink pads ( I used Crushed Olive, Peeled Paint, Forest Moss, and Rusty Hinge. also Tea Dye Oxide for my sentiment tag) 4 1/2 x 6 "...
