Hi and welcome today to my Blog.
This week on my Facebook Live I showed how to created this stunning card using the Delicate Dahlias stamp set from the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue and the Soft Pastels Assortment found in the Annual Catalogue. When you purchase $180 worth of product from the Mini or Annual Catalogue you can choose the Delicate Dahlias for FREE. ….Oh I love getting things for Free, don’t you?
The other main product I used on this card is the Soft Pastels Assortment. A beautiful set of 8 colours…Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green, Mango Melody, Mossy Meadow, Night of Navy and Poppy Parade.
Last week I watched a video by Tina Zinck showing how to use pastels. HERE is a link to her YouTube Channel. She has 4 videos on using the pastels and so far I have only watched ‘Part 4’. Hoping to catch up on the others later. But she explains everything really well. I hope you will find my video below just as helpful.
