Earlier this month, I participated in a demonstrator swap event. My Upline, organized a team meeting and a new Holiday card swap. I love participating in the swaps. I get 15 different card ideas to share with my customers. I am often inspired by these cards to recreate them as is, or change a few attributes. Please enjoy this short video…I hope you are inspired too!
Stay tuned for the 12 weeks of Christmas series, you may see one of these cards again….
This series will begin the week of October 1. It my hope to inspire you with great card and gift ideas for Christmas and tempt you with some yummy Stampin’ Up! stamps, dies and delicious bling!

Back again, with another beautiful Brusho background. I created this card, first using the easy brusho technique. Once it was dry I added the versamark and embossing powder. The greeting pairs nicely with the classic label punch and the white perfect accents give it a nice finish. I was inspired to create two cards from this design by changing up the flower. I love how the gamboge is softened when the yellow is added, it pairs well with the Peekaboo Peach cardstock.

Well here we are watching paint dry…lol
Day 2 of the salt technique, now that the paint and salt are dry, we are ready to remove the salt and create some amazing cards.
I feel that the background technique that I am sharing, speaks volumes in terms of your card, so I kept the inking simple. One image, a greeting and a bit of bling! Enjoy the video and be sure to comment below about what colour combination you have used or are thinking of trying for your salty background.
To create this stunning card, you will need the following supplies:
Your amazing salted Brusho Background, trimmed to 3/3-4″ x 5″
Basic Black cardstock #121045, cut at 3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″
Whisper white cardstock #100730 cut at 4-1/4″ x 11″, scrap 1/2″ x 3″
When I saw this stamp set it looked like he was juggling, so I thought why not juggle multicoloured confetti? I tied it in with coordinating paper scraps. I coloured the dots on the hat to coordinate with the inks using my blender pen.
It seems lately I have been drawn to using my 1/2″ bits for greetings and embossing them! It’s a phase.
Leave a comment to let me know which colour is your favourite?
I found this card went together fairly quickly when I had all the bits embossed and pre-cut. Want to give it a try? Click on the video to learn how:

Well here I am on Monday, attemping to record a video for my weekly post and what happens? It takes me the entire day to get it all together. Wow! I think to myself, do I really want to post this? Then I realize, that I am not the only one who is playing with this new product and not yielding the “As Seen On TV” results I was hoping for.
So here is a short video on my crafty adventure with brusho and the cards that made the directors cut! Enjoy!
