Today, I share how to use VersaFine Clair in multiple ways! This fabulous ink allows for crisp clean stamping. However, it also can be used over many mediums including Alcohol Markers, like Copics. It works wonderfully for embossing sentiments even on vellum and can be used under many mediums such as Perfect Medium. Today, I share a few of my favorite techniques using VersaFine Clair.
In this video I'll share how you can stretch the use of your VersaMark ink pads and create easy backgrounds with them. Even though VersaMark is generally used for heat embossing, it's also a great ink for tone-on-tone or monochrome stamping.
Brillance Pearlescent Coral was the perfect ink for the delicate flowers on my CAS layered card. Watch my video below to see how easy it was to create. Enjoy!

I LOVE anything and everything rainbow in cardmaking, and if it sparkles, that's even better! See how I do this!
We all need a little inspiration sometimes and, for this project, I took my inspiration from the Impressionism style of paintings from the 1860s. It resulted in a fun project using the All-Purpose inks and other Imagine products to create a miniature floral scene on a 4”x4” flat panel canvas.

Make this 4” x 6” Art Journal page featuring a variety of Imagine products. The tutorial includes how to use your Craft Mat to create a watercolor background effect with irRESISTible sprays as well as how to create a watercolor palette for detail coloring with Memento inks.
I used irRESISTible Pico Embellisher on the wire mesh texture to give this tag a little bit of color. It's just thick enough to fill the holes and looks fantastic! I wanted the resin hearts to be stark white and stand out so I used All-Purpose Ink in White, which provided great coverage and opacity. Watch my video today and like and share if you enjoy it!
I am a clean and simple cardmaker who likes to focus on techniques, so the GooseBumps spray is PERFECT for my style of cardmaking!

For this card I heat embossed a few flower images with white embossing powder on vellum. I used my sharp pair of scissors to fussy cut them.
The new Imagine Craft Mat is great for creating all kinds of backgrounds for cards. This one was created using Memento Dewdrop Inks and the grid side of the craft mat. Watch my video below to see how I did it. Enjoy!
This project is all about making something out of nothing. At least, nothing as in a piece of corrugated cardboard from a discarded box and lined paper from an old notebook.
I made a mixed media Valentine's card using the fantastic new dies from Imagine, Dewlets! These adorable dies can be used to create a multitude of wonderful designs.

Doodlestix, embossing powder, and Fireworks spray team up to make the most wonderful wintery background for the cute snowman! I really love making impressions with stamps in embossing powder. You can get some very exciting and sometimes unexpected results. The Doodlestix worked perfectly to help create a swirling winter snow scene for this mixed media card.
I love a versatile tool and the Dewlet die is just that. The perfect little (but not too little) teardrop for petals, leaves, raindrops, balloons, and whatever else you think of. In this card, I’ve used the die as a stencil to draw out a pattern as well as a die to cut out shapes in that pattern. And that simple repeating pattern gets jazzed up with pen detailing, glitter, and a couple of shaker windows, too.
If you get the blues being away from friends and family, this is a sweet card to say how much you miss them. Change up the color scheme or sentiment, though, and it could easily be a baby or wedding shower card. Add some flowers and you’ve got an April Showers card. All from a simple repeating background and a few well-chosen embellishments.
I adore blue and silver as a holiday color scheme (or any time of year, for that matter). I created this card with a frosted-looking inside scene (courtesy of Creative Medium mixed with VersaColor) and a fun spinner element in the front-panel frame. The Rinea foiled paper is sturdy enough to hold its shape, even when cut so delicately, making this card a real display piece for the holidays.
For today’s card, I used the Sparkle Embossing Powder to create the beautiful snowflake on a bright red cardstock. This is a perfect project to be mass-produced for your Christmas cards.
For today’s card, I used the new Dewlets Die to create a beautiful paper daisy. I used the die to cut out a few petals and adhered it on the card panel with the On Point Glue.
For today’s Wedding Day card, I used the Rinea Foil Papers which can be embossed, die cut and shaped. I used a floral die set to cut the flower petals and with the help of a metal brad fixed them together.
Creating a monochromatic card was easy when using some Delicata Celestial Copper and Copper Embossing powder. Watch my video below to see exactly how I did it.

For November, Imagine is working with Rinea papers and I am having so much fun experimenting with how they emboss and handle ink products! I used the Walnut spray and Creative Medium on the Rinea paper and made a beautiful fall card.
Since Rinea foil papers are gorgeous on both sides, I wanted to make something with them that showed off that feature. Paper “sculptures” are good for this, and with the Thanksgiving holidays approaching, a cornucopia seemed the best way to go.
Die cuts and a few choice supplies combine to create this darling little gingerbread house garland. Not only is it perfect for the holidays, it’s an ideal craft to let kids help decorate (after the embossing is done!) See how I make this holiday craft.
Blended faded backgrounds on cards are beautiful and in this video, I show you how I create a night sky using a stencil and VersaFine Clair inks. These inks are blendable and have such bright vibrant colors and are perfect for making your night sky pop!
Stamping over Delicata Inks with another ink like VersaFine Clair or Memento Inks creates such a cool shimmery effect.
Watch my video below to see exactly what I mean. Enjoy!

VersaFine Clair Ink and large sponge daubers make great patterned background papers for all of your projects! Check out this video to see how I used them to make a beautiful, distressed background for my Christmas card and matching envelope. The colors are so rich and vibrant and create the perfect matching set.
These cards use patterned stamps that are not holiday-specific and simple shapes you can cut with basic dies, punches, or even just scissors. These simple shape cards are also perfect for crafting with kids in preparation for the holidays!
How about a little out-of-this-world fun? When trying to come up with a unique card I thought of the theme aliens, so created this sky scene with shades of grey and silver and drew up some simple saucers to decorate the skies.
One tiny stamp and VersaFine in Onyx Black creates a cute and simple card design. I stamped the open line flower and then used the Irresistible Pico Embellisher to fill the petals. The shine you get after the product dries is breathtaking.
I stamped a beautiful flower bunch from Simon Says Stamp with Brilliance Ink on a watercolor paper. I added some water on a small scoop of Walnut Crystals and painted the entire bunch with it. This is a monotonic theme card and I have used only one pigment to create all the highlights and shadows. I stamped a simple sentiment with Pinecone Versafine Clair ink and the painted panel is ready.
Ink is not just for paper. You can use it on fabric, metal and more specifically Polyform clay. You can use inks to transform polymer clay projects into a wide variety of pieces. Use ink to simply color your clays projects, use with stamps to add designs, or blend it into the clay to create a new color clay.
Layering stencils are trending now and we can create beautiful designs and make techniques with the different patterns.
Summer can be busy with a hype of activities outside! But just in case there are days when you feel like staying inside you can beat the heat with a cardmaking session. In this tutorial, I go over some basic techniques that you can use on a variety of designs.
For this project, I stamped the sentiment “Love Blossoms Here” onto watercolor paper, personalized it with alphabet stamps, added wire hanging and added a book paper backing to represent the family stories that get created along the way and then passed on.
Shoes are one of my favorite things to upcycle. In today's video, I show you how to take an inexpensive pair of plain white canvas shoes and stamp them with various floral images. I used Versafine Clair and Fabrico Markers for this project.
I used kraft banner pendants with doilies and gorgeous flowers to create a beautiful wedding banner. My favorite part is the delicate rosebuds created with Creative Medium in Iridescent Purple. Against the kraft paper, it pops just enough to create a wonderful background.
The wedding season is approaching quickly and today I wanted to show you that anyone can create an elegant wedding ensemble without breaking the bank. This entire set was made using plain white cardstock that was elevated to something special with help from products by Imagine.
VersaMagic inks have a longer drying time so they are perfect to use with stencils where you can use multiple colors. I love to use stencils. Rather than clean the stencil, I like to lightly spritz the inked side of the stencil, flip it over, and place it on the second piece of cardstock creating a watercolored panel.
It's April! Can you believe it? I wanted to make something fun for summer to hang on our front door and this rainbow pinwheel wreath is just the ticket. It’s bright, cheerful and welcoming to all who grace our doorstep. I used 21 different colors of VersaMagic ink.

Using Neon Radiant Amplify on holiday cards is a fabulous way to create a snowy effect. On my card today I used Amplify in white with a stencil and some Dark Brown Shimmer Delicata Ink. I am really loving how the pinecone on my card looks like it is flocked with snow!
All the Delicata colors are truly stunning but I have to admit, I think the rose gold is my favorite. I love the gold shimmer it has mixed with the soft rose color. I also added Imagine's gold embossing powder as accents to my card to really make it pop!
Can you ever have too many notebooks? This gives them all kinds of great potential on the outside, just like the blank pages are inside.

Fireworks! spray provides an easy way to turn simple white papers into vibrant, colorful backgrounds for card projects. When working on one-layer projects, the stamped image needs to be protected with a mask to avoid the wet ink getting on the main image. For this technique, no special supplies are needed as the masks are created using cheap masking tape and baking paper or wax paper. This technique can be used for various projects; ATC’s, standard sized cards, scrapbook layouts, and art journal pages.

This project was inspired by some gorgeous wire, metal, and glass lanterns we spotted in a shop last year.

I had this picture of my two boys and me on my craft table since Mother’s Day. They both gave me handmade cards, which brought tears to my eyes because they know me so well ♥ I wanted to store those cards somewhere on the layout. Therefore I used a white paper bag at the bottom of all the layers.

Trees by Joyce Kilmer is one of my favorite poems. Living in the country I have had the opportunity to enjoy trees all my life. Put the two together in this craft project.
I suffer from a nearly lifelong love of poetry. Okay, the suffering? Not so much. The thing I love about poetry is that a single, simple wellturned phrase can take me someplace far away. Such is the case with much of the poetry by Robert Frost, but especially with his poem, “Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening”.
January – out with the old, in with the new…time for a fresh start and along with that fresh start is a time to get organized. But organizing doesn’t have to be boring, spice up your organizational containers with a bit of help from Creative Medium!
For the past four years I’ve been picking a single word that is my guide for the next 12 months.

When it comes to art- what brings you motivation for 2016? For me it is creating more art in the new year. This journal page has several three dimensional elements created out of paper and ink.

Gift this lovely DIY box. Perfect for holidays, birthdays, anniversaries and more!
Despite winter’s chill, there are two things warming my heart these days: Christmas fun and the upcoming SciFi goodness of both Star Wars and Star Trek.

This card is also perfect for any long-distance holiday greeting, space-fan or not.
I live in the Northwest and one of my favorite things to see is snow layering the fir trees up in the mountains. Add a crisp moonlit night to the mix and it’s magic! I managed to capture some of that feeling using stencils and Creative Medium.

I love the scent of gingerbread baking on a cold, frosty day, so I wanted to evoke that feeling in an art piece. I also think that red and green are kind of overdone during the holidays so in keeping with the gingerbread idea, I decided to stick with that color scheme too.
One of my favorite holiday traditions is the choosing of the Christmas tree! We could take the easy route and go to a lot and select a pre-cut tree but it so much more fun to traipse around acres of trees and find the “perfect” tree. Well, I think so anyway, don’t ask my husband.

The problem with moving to a new home, one of the problems I should say, is finding new locations to put things. I like to know where my keys are so I don’t waste time looking for them when it is time to go! I decided this small canvas would be just the thing, not only is it pretty but so useful!
Doing a little makeover in the family room and after losing my DVD storage, I decided to use crates. Using StazOn inks and disposable sponge daubers gave me just the pop of color I needed with all the wood furnishings.

Autumn is my favorite time of year but it seems to fly by so quickly. I am always trying to stretch the season out as long as possible and one of the ways I do so is with home decor projects. These fun faux pumpkins look amazing with StazOn Metallic inks paired with a bit of Tuxedo Black Pico Embellisher.

I love to upcycle items that may have outlived their usefulness in their original form into pieces of art. I thought this old rusty muffin tin would be a perfect candidate.

Is there a fabulous lady in your life who qualifies as a Diva? I have one in mind for this gift journal as her long-awaited graduation gift is a trip to Paris where I’m sure she’ll be writing notes, saving ephemera and doing a little sketching in famous museums.

When we were asked to create a project with movement I knew immediately what I wanted to do…a telescoping card!

Let’s get “moving” and make this telescoping card come to life.
A green DIY project, perfect for the whole family!
The image on my card is one of a lady who should be in the no judgement zone since she has her own style and is proud of it! May we all promote peace, love and understanding every day so we can have these beneficial feelings at least in our small part of the world.
When asked to do a project for Peace, Love and Understanding, I immediately grabbed for this oh so cute stamp and die set. In the background you will find "I Love You" in French and Braille, stamped with an ink pad so close to Kraft, you can barely tell its there.
For International Day of Peace, I wanted to create something airy, with a positive mood subtending this sad situation. There is confusion but also hope everywhere.
International Day of Peace is a time to celebrate our global unity and the wonderful things that bring us together! This colorful sentiment is great for anyone who is far away but near in your heart.
When my kids were little, one of our favorite things to do was to gaze up at the sky and look for shapes in the clouds. Of course after rain storms we were looking for rainbows. This card combines both with Radiant Neon Amplify! Check it out!
When creating a mixed-media project it is fun and interesting to have lots of texture. This panel can be used as a piece of home decor or you can make a card using the technique, whatever direction your muse leads you in.
Creating texture and dimension is so easy with the amazing Neon Amplify. The perfect amount of bulk to create loads of interest on cards and other projects - have you tried your hand at it yet? You will simply love it!
Create your very own Autumn inspired card background, with this simple and stunning technique.
Some of the most useful tools in my stash is my is my set of Palette knives. Yes I know a weird choice for some, but not to me. Today I am going to show you how to use your Palette Knives in some new and different ways making a card. I hope you feel inspired to look at your tools in a different way from now on.
We all have art supplies that we feel we cannot create without. For most artists that list changes from time to time depending on the new releases that just keep getting better and better. A product at the top of my list right now is Iridescent Creative Medium paste. Here is one of a series of panels created using that product.
Memento inks are so versatile and I can use them for my favorite coloring technique – Watercolor! The colors stay true and are so easy to blend, they are my go to when I want to make a beautiful spring themed watercolor card.
Dabbling in my art journal again but this time with a simple and elegant not-so-Halloweeny page. We are not big into Halloween here but since I had this cute little spider (not that they are ever cute) I thought I would play around with a classy scary page.
For those of us in the U.S. the Labor Day weekend is a marker as the end of summer. If you are fortunate enough to be invited to a party of some sort you'll probably want to bring a small hostess gift. This little bag fits the bill!
See how Tear It Tape can adhere burlap to paper in this Seashell Ocean card.
Enjoy this vibrant iridescent sentiment - sure to brighten any cloudy day!
Sometimes you just want to let your friend how much they mean to you. Making them a special card will do just that…with a bit of sparkle, some shine and shimmer your love will shine…one inch at a time!
“No great achievement is accomplished without a bit of hard work.” So true so true and Labor Day is the perfect day to kick back and acknowledge those achievements!
"You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think and loved more than you know.” There are opportunities daily to show our support to other women who may be fighting battles that we are completely unaware of. Why not give that support with a card?
My niece is a real girly girl – but with such a strong personality! I used a recent photo of her to create a beautiful layout using strong colors – reminding her that she is capable of anything, but most of all – a homegrown natural beauty. I used StazOn Studio Glaze to create the beautiful doll for this layout.
This is my Woman’s Equality Day project with a little wink. It shows the original 1971 Resolution Text in the background (thank you Wikipedia). Ladies, everyone of us has got the power to make the world a little bit better day by day. We delite ourself and others with our handmade gifts, cards and decorations. So let’s craft :)
I love this sentiment paired with boot steps and a doily stencil. Tough and soft at the same time. Who in your life could use a card like this? Your mom, sister, friend, coworker? I will be sending this one to a friend that just got a promotion at work…she will love it!
Here’s a salute to all the women I know…and that goes for you! We don’t take credit for all the super things we do on a day to day basis…from stay-at-home mom’s taking care of homes, their family and all the extra errands that randomly pop up. Check out this super woman card!
Fun embossing, cute washi tape and for those in my generation, a super fun Viewmaster!
I found this nifty pair of canisters at a flea market recently and I thought it would be fun to kick it up a notch and give them a little French flair.
This card is dedicated to the one of the greats. Julia Child brought the pleasure of French cuisine to American kitchens at a time when marshmellow flush was considered a delicacy. So here's to you Julia, Happy Birthday!
In this project I show you how easy it is to create an individual place mat. I love the results with Memento Luxe Ink Pads and Fabrico Marker. Stamping and drawing on fabric is just a little bit different to stamping on cardstock.
French Bulldog Piggy bank covered in quotes from the Queen of French cuisine – Julia Child! He's a perfect little watch dog over a new cooking space.
Cathy Andronicou shows you how to make this must-have DIY shopping list. A perfect housewarming gift or to keep on your own refrigerator.
Monoprinting makes a lot of fun and offers a wide variety of options to create several layers on a project. Experimenting with this technique using only my craft mat, I found out that Radiant Neon Amplify! is the perfect color to add new dimension and feel to the surface.
I love creating colorful cards and the same goes if it's masculine. I get inspired by colors and this fun Kaleidacolor (Blue Breeze) was the starting point of my card.
This is a fun and easy project that brightens up any entertaining space!
I have discovered you can watercolor with almost any medium. Today I am using irRESISTible Pico’s. This is such a fun image to color and with the Pico’s, you can give the gumballs a little something extra.
This card works like a sudoku puzzle. It comes along with several letters and embellishment. Because of using Tack’n’Peel, everything adheres non-permanent on the surface, so you can spend a lot of funny time combining it and trying to find out how many words, phrases and designs are possible to create. Hubby had a lot of fun with the possibilities.
I like the colors of Spring! The Brilliance Pearlescent inks are just perfect for the subtle shine and lightness for this time of the year!
Friendship is a precious gift. I’ve got a couple of really good friends and am very thankful for finding them. Therefore it was on my heard to make a friendship celebrating project. The picture shows me with some of my girls from our private weekly MoMa-Crafting-Club.
Here is a gift tag that reflects a personality. Fun to make and even more fun to give away, it can double as a bookmark.
Sometimes creating a flat card is just not good enough, sometimes something different is refreshing. For today I created an accordion fold card inside a little box. Not only can it be used for the card, you can add a small gift inside for the recipient too.
My decorating style includes using fun vintage children’s blocks to spell out various words that might celebrate a holiday or add whimsy to a shelf.
I’m a librarian and love books in every form. These ones are made from matchboxes. Once started I wasn’t able to stop making them. They are perfect to give notes, coins, vouchers or any other little somethings and can be adapted to many occasions.
The lazy days of summer are just about over, so I thought a shaker card with real sand from Clearwater Beach, Florida might be a fun card to send someone in the north, to remind them of their vacation memories.
We all love traveling, and I for one would never be home if traveling was free - as the saying goes! See how to make a travel journal project.
Journaling is definitely trending at the moment and there are no right and wrong way to do it - it is a very personal thing. I needed something to keep my travel memories in and found this fabulous journal on sale because the front cover was damaged - not a problem for me - as you can see by my Tutorial.
Enjoy the journey as much as the destination and record every memory made along the way in this fun, easy collage style travel journal.
Remember the days when we drove around with Thomas Guides in our cars? Big books of maps that not only helped you navigate the area but you had to learn how to navigate the book! Today the maps are likely outdated but quite useful for all sorts of projects.
Summer usually signals a break in our normal routines, be it a long vacation stay or perhaps just a few interesting day trips here and there. Either way it is an opportunity for us to make some memories and preserve them in a handmade travel journal.
Cathy Andronicou shows you how to keep your travel memories on you at all times with this Parisian Key Fob.
We don’t have a name for “Tacky Tourists” in Germany. But it’s a really good and funny description for these kind of travelers and I think, we should have a German word for them. For this card I created a new road sign. A couple of years ago, my BFF Dagmar and I visited the Gizeh Pyramides at Kairo, Agypt.
Isn't it funny all of the little bits and pieces you collect on a road trip...everything from bottle caps, sea shells collected on the beach, sand saved in tiny bottles to the tacky tourist offerings like plastic hula dolls, pink rubber flamingos and the ever popular key chains. Well this kitschy shadow box is just the ticket to save all those funky bits in one place.
The big canvas has room for every single State, but doesn’t presents them in a usual map view. The states are listed in alphabetical order. See how I created these with letter die cuts.
Show your thanks with this shimmering bold sentiment from Artist in Residence Carisa Zglobicki.
Flag Day is huge in my household. Show your patriotism this Flag Day by dressing up a pair of jeans or capris with a stencil and a little ink. As a bonus, you are all set for the 4th of July also! :)
Combining Stars and Stripes is always fun. I haven'tt used my awesome Radiant Neon inks for a little while now, so that inspired me to create a rainbow of stars:)
I really adore how this card came out, especially when I took it outside to photograph, the 3D elements cast wonderful shadows over the front of the stark white card stock giving it a completely different look to what I had imagined when I first thought of what to create.
I love red and blue, I love America - so when I have the chance to create something that is so close to my heart I really am in crafting heaven. This card celebrates my love for this amazing country and some real crafting goodness all thrown into one gorgeous themed card.
Cathy Androinicou is here to show you how easy it is to make your very own summer lilies shirt using our All-Purpose Ink & other Imagine Crafts products. This can be a perfect new addition to your summer wardrobe or gift.
Do you have some old T-Shirts in the closet that you never wear because they are just too plain? Dress them up with a stencil and an ink pad. The first swipe of ink always make me nervous (it is a $3 t-shirt after all), but then we you see your shirt coming to life, it is super fun!
My summer wardrobe is full of boring plain shirts, how about yours? This year I was so happy to receive some of the gorgeous Memento Luxe inks and have quite literally gone to town jazzing up my clothes with my favorite images. Check it out!
Is your husband or son still thinking your hobby is just for women? I've made a men’s shirt, perfect for summer time, that will convince them otherwise! Since Martin (my husband) has seen it he’s attended to my colors, stamps and stencils in a whole new way. This shirt is a great way to involve everyone in your crafting endevours.
A delicious DIY tank, just in time for summer!
This is a fun project for the family to join in and help create. The labels have a purpose holding onto the flatware wrapped in napkins but also add to the party decor too.
It is that time of year when casual gatherings in the backyard are the rule! Don't know what to bring as a host/hostess gift? This is a quick gift that shows your opinion and appreciation of the Master Griller. Check it out!
Carisa Zglobicki takes over your screen with this empowering sentiment featuring bold vibrant colors from our irRESISTible Neon texture sprays in a Jackson Pollock style canvas.
Father's Day is celebrated around the world -not always at the same time, here in the Southern hemisphere we celebrate in September. I never miss an opportunity to create a card celebrating the dads. I always love texture on a masculine card and it is so easy to add as you will see from my tutorial.
There are so many occasions to make and give masculine cards. A friend of ours recently had a baby and the new Dad would certainly enjoy knowing he was not forgotten in all of the excitement! See this masculine card project.
Choose blues, browns or greens and it is sure to be appreciated by the men in your life. Nothing screams manly like Nautical and Woodgrain themes.
Do you have a poker face? Surprise your loved one with this fun masculine aces book. Works great for birthday's or Father's Day!
A little iron, a little leather and one cool dude...a perfect start for any guy in your life.
Do you struggle to create cards for men? It doesn't have to be difficult at all - throw a couple of inks together with some embellishments and die-cuts and you have an instant winner. I am sharing this quick Father's day card with you using only a few inks to create interest, texture and pattern.
Carisa Zglobicki brings you this masculine inspired card using Imagine Crafts StazOn Studio Glaze. Subtle yet vibrant and just in time for Father's Day.
There is something undeniably beautiful about a wedding - friends and family come together to support and celebrate those exchanging vows and becoming one. Make a keepsake for your next wedding event.
Love is definitely in the air this time of the year! Here is a special Bridal Shower card for that bride that likes to mix it up a bit. This not your traditional card but a tiny mixed media piece of art. You can have fun using the Bride's colors and flowers, whatever you like to personalize it.
Can you picture one of these favors topping a place setting or perhaps lined up together on a tray next to the door so your wedding guests will see them as they leave? Favors are one of those things that are made even more exciting by the wrapping! This idea is designed for wedding favors and other occasions.
Vintage weddings are kind of romantic and elegant with a touch of past times. It can be defined very individually but the romantic touch is always presented. This really romantic sparkling flower clip can be used in several ways: the bride’s hair, the groom’s buttonhole or, in a bigger dimension, as wedding bouquet, or for any decoration.
My sweetheart and I were married way back in 1986, right out of high school. At that time I knew nothing of the fun stuff the paper arts world had in store for me. See how I made this puzzle piece card to celebrate our union.
StazOn Studio Glaze is a perfect way to add bright vibrant colors when spread on your project but it can also provide amazing depth and texture which is why I used it both ways on my wedding make-over place cards. Since my colors are blue and gold I decided to use blue for our female guests and gold for the male guests.
When my husband and I originally got married they didn't even have "Save the Date" announcements so I thought it would be fun to create one. I wanted to include the puzzle theme - "two become one" as well as the polka dots and this is what I came up with.
It's always fun to gift a little surprise to each of your guests at your weding...these little favor boxes are a beautiful addition to present them in.
These candle sticks are a great way to carry your theme and colors into your reception. Decorate a set for each table and give them away as gifts to your guests.

Graduations are just around the corner and these young people are going to be getting a lot of gift cards. Now they need a place to keep them organized. Aren't you glad you stopped by today so I can help solve that problem with this one of a kind Gift Card Organizer?!?
Graduation is such a special day as they walk across the stage to receive their diplomas. It is the end of childhood and a beginning into adulthood. Commemorate your graduate with a specially made card to recognize their achievement. Simple to make, just change the colors to coincide with your school theme.
This little flower pot holds more than posies...pull up on the flowers and you've got a nifty little hiding spot for a gift card. I've included the template for the flower pot in the tutorial for easy assemblages. Happy crafting!
As soon as I heard the theme for this project was gift card holders, I immediately thought of a pocket card. Of course with my own little twist. It is the perfect way to be a little bit 'sneaky' with an unexpected gift...as you will see from my tutorial. Enjoy!
Gift cards, money or homemade coupons, this is a great way to give them to your special person. It also doubles as a cute storage envelope for all of their monetary gifts. This is fun to make and easy to change the gift theme.
Some times it is just so much simpler to give that picky Teenager a gift card than buy a gift. I never know what to buy my nieces mainly because they have everything twice over already! I decided to create a slider card and figured that I could hide a gift card within the mechanism.
Ready for summer? Memorial Day kicks off summer in the US and this card is great for sending greetings or using as an invitation to a July 4th BBQ.
A special thank you to all who have served our great nation yesterday and today.
Nothing says Memorial Day to me like an American flag. We artist are never happy unless we are grunging, distressing or finding new ways to present an old custom. Let me show you how to achieve a new look for Old Glory.
Leave it to Artist In Residence Savannah O'Gwynn to discover how to create a CAS (Clean And Simple) card with a big impact! Savannah shows how to use Metallic Creative Medium to create simple and easy cards that are sure to get noticed!
This is a very versatile design that can be used with any themed sentiment for any occassion.
I like this time of the year for it's flowers, butterflies and freshness. So let's use our liking and bring it inside our home :)
White is such an amazing blank canvas - from cardstock to canvas to fabric. White enables you to create and alter whatever you can dream up. For those special afternoon tea time treats on the patio I altered some white linen serviettes to make them a bit more special.
Baerbel Born uses Fabrico Markers on fabric to create fun cross stitch patterns and designs without sewing – fun project for the entire family!
Cathy Andronicou shows how to create this fabulous photo frame that's accented with IMAGINE Crafts' Iridescent Creative Medium. Because the frame has a base coat of chalkboard paint, the sentiment can be changed when you switch out the photo – genius!
My mom loves birds and so for this Mother's day I wanted to make a card that incorporates a little birdie. Thankfully I have some really cute stamps and with the help of the amazing StazOn Studio Glaze I could add some really amazing color to my image. For my sentiment I used two stamps and stamped them in different colors for a fun look.
Have you been inspired by the Bokeh style backgrounds found on Pinterest? Carisa Zglobicki shows you how easy it is to create this style of background using IMAGINE Crafts' Fireworks craft sprays and Memento Luxe ink.
Mother's Day is one day of the year that is common to us all, we all have or have had a Mother, what better way to say 'I love you' than with flowers! The beautiful flowers featured on this card will not wilt or fade.
When I needed to make a birthday card for my daughter this cute image was a great starting point for inspiration. I really enjoyed the various ways to add depth, dimension and texture to my projects. Take a look!
Faux Gelli Plate Prints are a great way to create unique and fun cards and gift bags to have on hand for any occasion. The Craft Mat and Memento Luxe inkers make creating faux Gelli prints so quick and easy you'll have a stack of beautiful prints in no time at all.
Do you want to sample the technique done with a Gelli Plate but don't have the room or the budget for one more piece of equipment? Why not try this "faux" Gelli Plate technique done with your Imagine Crafts Craft Mat? Simple, fun and amazing results are in store for you.
Some days you just have to create your own sunshine. This sentiment is true not only for the turbulent weather of Spring time but also in creating art. One of the ways I like to create my own artsy sunshine is monoprinting. A fun and easy technique that yields a sky full of sunshine every time.
A few days after we were asked to do an upcycling project I got hold of an old and ugly plastic picture frame. This technique using Creative Medium and Embossing Powder is very easy to do and gives a true metallic retro effect.
This little table was my mothers, so of course it means the world to me. However, it was beyond ugly (sorry mom). It needed a little something, something. I am beyond thrilled with how it turned out using a few inks, stencil and a Sponge Dauber.
It is never to early to start training children to respect our home, Mother Earth, by recycling whenever we can. What might seem to be trash, like this old shoebox, can be turned into a lovely treasure box easily using scraps from other projects.
New trends in papercrafting and mixed media are using a Gelli Plate. I have found that the Craft Mat by Imagine Crafts works like a charm without the added expense. Let me show you how easy it is to incorporate this technique into your next card project.
Working with the Gelli Plate is one of the hottest trends right now, and I have to admit that I don't own one. I've really wanted to experiment with the monoprinting technique, and I soon discovered the the IMAGINE Crafts Craft Mat is perfect for achieving the same results!
This is fun way to take your favorite colors and create your own watercolor backgrounds using the IMAGINE Crafts Craft Mat as your working surface. Here are a couple of versions using similar color combinations.
Gelli Printing is a firm favorite of mine because it offers the ability to just play and experiment - and with the wonderful inks and mediums available it is such a joy creating textures. A great alternative to the Gelli Plate is to use the Craft Mat to create faux Gelli prints for some quick cards.
Savannah O'Gwynn walks you through 3 different projects using the IMAGINE Crafts Craft Mat in this fabulous introductory video to simple monoprinting for the non mixed media artist!
"April Showers" in the Southern Hemisphere are slightly different than those in the Northern hemisphere - we are heading from summer to Autumn/Fall and April Showers are more than welcome but bring with them a reminder that we are heading to cooler tempertures and...rain! This is my inspiration for this card.
Make an April BABY Shower card! with Pico embellished umbrellas! Check it out!
After a long, cold winter here in New England the thought of Spring flowers is a little ray of hope and sunshine in all of our lives! This card shows how brilliant yet simple a Spring card can be created using a stencil and Creative Medium Metallics.
In Germany we say "April, April, der macht was er will“ which means the weather in April is capricious. It could be rainy or sunny- almost like summer time here. “April showers bring May flowers” is the American adage. And this card suits to both countries! This card is very simple to make and has a surprising illusion effect.

Baerbel Born has another amazing project to share with you today, this time creating these elegant textured Easter Eggs using StazOn Studio Glaze. Easy enough to make with the entire family!
With Easter around the corner I was inspired to dig out my favorite stamps and make a card. It's playful and elegant! I teamed the bunny with this cute little jellybean stamp transformed by Memento inks and irRESISTibles.
It's that time of the year where the kids get to find all of those eggs hidden in the yard. What a perfect idea for creating a fun card - an Easter basket filled with brightly decorated eggs!
Studio Glaze is a real member of the StazOn product family. It works on nearly every surface. This was a boring, plain white glossy porcelain bunny before I doodled it colorful with the Glaze.
Since Easter is fast approaching, I got inspired by the colored eggs I plan to decorate with my daughter. And this time of the year I really enjoy watching the eggs hatching and then small chicks coming out of them.
When you want just a whisper of color, StazOn Studio Glaze is the product to use! On this project Studio Glaze was applied to the back side of Vertigo Breeze and also onto glossy cardstock.
Anything and everything metallic is trending right now and it just looks soooo good on a card! This would make a wonderful snail mail greeting for any occasion, just change the sentiment.
One of the hot trends in cardmaking now is Foil. So let's create our own foil look without the high price. Spend a few minutes making foil "sheets" to use in the future using Creative Medium -- so easy peasy!
It seems that every year, Easter decorations are becoming more and more popular for having around the house or even hanging from an indoor tree. Baerbel shows how simple it is to create these fun Easter Egg ornaments with some definate BLING that are sure to get noticed!
I love playing with Pico's and with Spring just around the corner, this is a fun embossing folder to play with. I've kept it fairly simply, but I can envision a really colorful zentangle with all the Pico colors.
My favorite season of the year is Spring, watching the world come alive. I wanted to create a freehand card that is simple to replicate that didn't involve any stamping or stencils, just my interpretation of the trees and flowers around me.
There is a wide range of symbolism associated with poppies...everything from loyalty, beauty, magic, consolation, fertility and even eternal life. They are in my opinion one of spring's most beautiful flowers with their ruffled, delicate petals and striking colors. While they are only around for a short period of time you can capture their beauty in this easy to paint canvas to enjoy all year long.
Get creative with Amplify! with this fun project creating a boquet of Spring blooms. When heated on waxed paper, Amplify has the look and feel of suede!
Inspired by the beautiful colors of Spring when everything is fresh and in full bloom, so I created this quick card. For my focal point elements I chose this gorgeous soft linen flower in cream and then added color to it using the Radiant Neon ink pads.
Barb and Marilyn of Enchanted Valley Arts demonstrate a fabric stenciling technique with All-Purpose Inks and Fabrico Markers. Great for quilts, table runners, placemats and more!

Who doesn't love Peeps - these sweet treats are popping up everywhere this time of year. I knew when I saw these little bunny stamps for the first time they would look spectacular covered with a layer of bright, colorful Radiant Neon Amplify!
I absolutely love St. Patrick's day – my grandfather had a bit 'o Irish blood in him so in a way I can honor him and have a wee bit of fun too! And what is more classic on St. Patty's day than celebrating with a wee bit 'o green and gold, like IMAGINE Crafts' Metallic Gold Creative Medium on this card.
I was excited when we were asked to create a St. Patrick’s Day project since green is my favorite color. And there's no greener day than St. Patricks Day! To celebrate, I grabbed StazOn Studio Glaze, Radiant Neon Amplify! and StazOn inkpads and created a festive canvas.
Instead of buying one of those boring, standard banners from a party store, why not create your own that's sure to WOW and amaze all your guests? It's simple to create a layered banner that gets everyone into a festive mood for celebrating!
I love using dies as guides for creating all sorts of fun elements in a card. Today I used a heart die from X-Cut to use as a template for creating this fun flower wreath.

Savannah O'Gwynn shows how easy it is to transform and personalize simple gift items and home decor accent pieces using StazOn Studio Glaze.

I love dandelion's and cant wait for them all to start springing up so I can pick them and make a wish! When I saw the fabulous Clearly Besotted stamp set Dandelion Dreams a plan quickly formed. Traditionally it should be white but hey, artistic license and my favourite Memento Luxe pad Rose Bud was calling my name.
I love having cards in my stash that work for both guys and gals that I can use at a moments notice. This card fits the bill perfectly, it's fun, thoughtful and has just enough shimmer to be elegant without being too girly. It's made using Iridescent Creative Medium -- creamy paste that pairs perfectly with stencils and looks great on dark backgrounds.

This was a class that IMAGINE Crafts taught at the Winter 2015 CHA Show featuring our newest releases.
I adore the new Imagine Crafts Creative Medium! It is so easy to use and clean up, you will find it hard to go wrong. It dries relatively quickly and does not have an offensive smell, two things that are very important to me in a product. When I created my tester pieces I fell instantly in love with the Blue so had to use it on a proper project first, what better than a background for a spring inspired card.
The texture from the new Amplify is so fluffy! It reminds me of a sheep's wool, so here's a fun and card that I created in celebration of Chinese New Year, the Year of the Sheep.
I'm always looking for new ways to add color to my Art Journal pages and StazOn Studio Glaze blends to give amazing variation in colors. This two page spread is called "She Pauses".

So many reds, so little time! The Memento color line features inkpads with complimentary Fireworks craft sprays that are fun to combine because they blend so wonderfully. Valentine themed cards are the perfect way to try them all out!
Since this card was being sent to one of my fun and crazy artists friends, I decided to create something a little more on the edgier sides of things because I knew that she would appreciate it.
For a few weeks now I’ve had fun playing with Walnut Inks. The idea of combining the stamp and the Walnut Ink was born and had to be realized immediately. Create this night sky art project!

I couldn’t believe what I saw when I first played with the new Radiant Neon Amplify! What a fun! Since Valentine's Day is approaching, I began thinking of moments in love and pictures of my honeymoon came to mind. Check it out!
Tall layout is a nice change in cardmaking. I hope you enjoy my quick Valentine's project today.
Amplify, StazOn Studio Glaze and oh so super cool new Creative mediums. Today I am sharing a simple and easy card using the StazOn Studio Glaze, which just gives a perfect WOW to an Acetate card.
This project is based on transforming a simple, basic wall clock into a mini work of art.
I am really loving the Bokeh effect trend that is appearing all around the web lately, I worked out with a few test pieces that you could re-create it relatively easily with the amazing Memento Luxe in Wedding Dress and a piece of cardstock with varying sized circles cut into it.
Valentine's Day always makes me think of red and pink – and those are the colors I chose to create this Clean and Simple greeting card, accented with a little bling heart in the bottom corner to carry the heart theme throughout this card.
I love the rustic look achieved roughly smoothing out the metallic creative medium! Once dry you find some jagged edges and variations in color that add interest to the card.
The Radiant Neon inks make me happy... I adore the pop of color they give, especially against a black background! When I sat down to make this card, my goal was to make something lovey-dovey but still have it usable for a guy or a girl, and for any occasion that a 'hello' was needed. You never know when you'll need to grab a virtual hug from your stash to send out!
It is always exciting to play with new product – even more so when it is a new Delicata ink – I love the shimmer of these – the richness of Celestial Copper is divine – a picture speaks a thousand words – so I will let the tutorial speak for itself.
Last year I made a card I really loved for my husband, and I thought since Valentine’s Day was fast approaching I’d re-create it this year! I used a gray and yellow color scheme for the original version as it wasn’t an actual valentine.
Valentines Day - the day for Lovers all over the world. What better way to express the 'matters of the heart' than a handmade card using the most divine ink Delicata Bronze Burst - as the name suggests - it is spectacular!
I love a fantastic background paired with a great sentiment. Sometimes that's all you really need to create a great card - not a lot of layers or patterned paper. You can make your inks work for you in so many different ways, so why not show them off?
When asked to make a card that involves the Super Bowl, I was so excited because even though I am not a football fan, I at least knew that Seattle had a chance and they wear my favorite colors...Lime & Navy. I had an idea of where I was going with this card, but after it was finished I am thinking....why didn't I make it into a shaker card?!? So today you get two cards.

Layouts are so much fun - we get to create and to capture those special moments that take hold of our hearts. I am always excited to add texture and focal points to my layouts and have done so using some of the fabulous new Creative Medium.
The Steampunk style canvas was made dimensional by the use of Amplify! The colors and textures were further enhanced with StazOn Studio Glaze. This was a fun way to use the new products for a powerful effect on a small canvas.
I love sun catchers and how they cast beautiful abstract designs whereever they are placed. When I got my hands on the StazOn Glaze I instantly knew I wanted to put my twist on a sun catcher of my very own. See more in the tutorial!
How cool is the new Amplify! product in all its neon puffiness?!? I can see myself using this product a lot! Perfect for flower centers, zentangle, flourishes...just about anywhere you want dimension.
