Crafting with Quilling Lady - Polish Folk Art cards on white background

Happy Monday!

I hope you have a fantastic start of the week!

Today, I am very excited to share with you my new YouTube tutorial where I create Polish Folk Art cards on white background.
I decided to record this video as I love this cutting die set from Altenew 'Wycinanki - Papercuts' and I used it a lot in the last couple of months, therefore this video is a part of 'Rediscover my stash' series.
I really hope you will enjoy watching this video.

Have a wonderful day and happy crafting!

Polish Folk Art - sunshine colours

Happy Sunday!

I hope you have a great day!

Today, I have another three cards from my new collection 'Polish Folk Art cards'. I tried to use yellow and orange as I need a little bit of sunshine, there are too many clouds at the moment on the sky ;)

I used cutting dies from Altenew called 'Wycinanki', it is my totally favourite cutting die set and I have used it so many times for a variety of projects.

I hope you will be inspired to create some projects with floral, bold and vivid images.

Happy crafting!

Polish Folk Art cards on black background

 Happy Saturday!

Hello amazing crafters! I hope you have a wonderful day.
Today, I have a set of three cards from my new collection 'Polish Folk Art cards'. 
I absolutely love this style and the range of designs you can create using just a few cutting dies is incredible.

I used the cutting dies from Altenew called 'Polish Papercuts - Wycinanki' and 270gsm card to create the flowers. It was a lot of fun.

If you like symmetry on your cards or if you like Polish Folk Art, I recommend you try designing and creating some cards in this style.

Happy crafting!

1 pen + 1 stamp = 3 cards

Happy Saturday!

I hope you have a fabulous day!

Today, I have a YouTube video with making cards using just one pen and one stamp.
I used 'Once in a Lifetime' stamp set from Crafter's Companion and TriColour 'Cool primary' by Spectrum Noir. The new Aqua pens are fantastic! I'm really impressed with the results.

What do you think?
Do you use Aqua pens in your crafting?
