When two Artisan’s come together to Bloom & Grow

May 9, 2019 by Mikaela Titheridge Leave a Comment

Last night I shared a fabulous evening with my friend and fellow Artisan Design Team Member, Emma Goddard. Emma and I got together for a fun Facebook Live, where we used two sets, Bloom & Grow and To a Wild Rose. Both of these sets are soon to launch in the up coming Annual Catalogue.

With Emma being about 40 minutes drive away, we decided to have a catch up. At first I suggested dinner out, but Emma thought a Facebook Live together would be fun. Oh how we laughed! We had so much fun together. With two different approaches and two different stamp sets, we came up with these two very different cards.

Emma has been encouraging me to take up Facebook Lives, giving me words of encouragement. To have her join me, was amazing. Emma arrived with her diary that gave fabulous inspiration for this striped card.

Emma’s design was using a new stamp set called Bloom & Grow. Her choice of set made me smile, for her encouragement to embark on Video’s is helping me to Bloom & Grow. I loved the simple three colour card that she came up with. To not colour the flowers, gave a dramatic focal point to this vibrant card and of course, it had to have twine. Emma loves her twine.

Where my Inspiration came from

Feeling as I do about my shared year with Emma in the Artisan Design Team, this sentiment seemed the most fitting. I do feel blessed to be her friend and be getting to know her more as the year is passing. The friendships is what it’s all about and to have a fabulous bond with the other Artisan’s in this sisterhood, I cherish the most.

I used Grey Granite as the card base and randomly stamped the word Friend over one corner, before adding a layer of Vellum. This just softened the look and feel of the card, whilst adding texture and interest. Next came the sentiment panel. It’s stitched, so it just had to be used.

Mock Ombré Sentiment

To create this mock ombré effect, I inked up the sentiment with the new Pretty Peacock In Colour before stamping it off on grid paper. I then immediately took it back to the ink, where I only inked up half of the sentiment, before committing to card. A really simple technique, but I love the interest that it creates.

The Rose itself was stamped in another new In Colour, Rococo Rose with a Blackberry Bliss centre. I loved this muted colour palette and the clustering of elements.

If you didn’t get to see this Facebook Live, you can head over to my Facebook page, where you’ll be able to catch up it. We certainly had a lot of fun and thoroughly enjoyed being creative together.

I hope if you did catch it that you enjoyed it and if you’ll be heading over now to watch it, that you’ll have as much fun watching as we did sharing.

Happy Crafting.

Those of you who know me well, will know I love co Those of you who know me well, will know I love colour … but what colour sofa do you think I chose for the new Craft Snug? 

Cream
Olive
Teal 
Pink

My WHY for doing what I do has always been to be around for my family. Being way down the end of the garden has been wonderful but there has always been something missing …. the closeness of the boys. 

My new room, our converted garage, will be a multi functional space. A Snug and Craft Den all in one. One end for hubby to sit and watch tv when I want or need to craft. A space for us to be together in those cold dark evenings when being alone in the summerhouse has been no fun. I can’t wait and feel sure I will be far more productive. 

Kitting this room out has been both fun and challenging but what colour scheme do you think I’ve gone for? Our neutral walls blend with the rest of the house but what colour sofa do you think sets the scene for this new space? 

It all kicks off next week, when we take delivery of our new sofa and the new window goes in. This afternoon we finish measuring up for my new craft storage, as it’s only my desk that will move with me, none of my Kallax units. 

Exciting times but could you make this drastic move from such a large space to this much smaller space like me?

A saying that I’ve lived by and am often saying A saying that I’ve lived by and am often saying to our son “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got”. 

Change can be scary but change can also be very exciting. It’s a tough one that I know many won’t understand but it’s time for change for me and this change excites me. Having worked in a wonderfully spacious summerhouse at the end of our garden for many many years, it’s time to move into the heart of our home … to a much much smaller space. Throughout this transition I will share just why. 

Follow to see how I manage to transition from my usual spacious cabin to just one end of this room. Yes, just one end, for this room will be multi functional. I’m going full circle back to where this all began and I cannot wait!! Of course there are things about the summerhouse that I will miss, but there is way more to look forward to. I invite you to follow and see just how I organise my new craft room. 

Excitement is brewing and hubby is working hard to get some wall panelling fixed in place before the carpet and furniture starts to be installed.

From #ArtisanDesignTeam member Mikaela Titheridge (@thecraftyoinkpen): “Create a reverse-masked background by die cutting or punching an aperture from a piece of copy paper and laying this over your cardstock. Blend ink to form a colored panel and repeatedly stamp over this before removing your mask. Add a collage of die-cut, watercolored images, a sentiment panel, and some embellishments, and see your reversed, masked panel come to life.”

Had enough of making Christmas Cards and want to m Had enough of making Christmas Cards and want to make something for your festive table? Then why not consider creating some coordinating festive napkin rings using the Paper Florist Dies?

Over on my blog today is my Artisan project that I created a few months back where I teamed up the Paper Florist Dies with Christmas Pinecones and Textured Floral dies. I knew I didn't want the standard Holly, Berries and Pine sprig foliage. 

What colours will your table decor be?
