Hello all, for anyone who hasn’t seen my earlier blog today about the Sales I just want to say that I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas and relaxing time with friends and family :)…So now that the festive period is over and we are eating our way through all the leftovers and chocolates!…I’m munching on a box of Guylian as I write!! anyway I now have thank you cards to send out and thought that they would be a good first tutorial for after Christmas.
These are so much fun to make and also very easy, great for getting the kids involved.
I remember using Blow Pens in school and creating lots of cool effects, so when I saw these pens in Tiger earlier this year I had to buy them.
Although very fun they are not the most hygienic so make sure you wash them well and don’t share them with too many people.
To make these cards you will need…
Masking sheets, I purchased mine from Hunkydory.
Blow Pens, I purchased mine from Flying Tiger however you can’t buy online so I’ve also found the same on eBay & Amazon
The “Thanks” die I used is by My Favourite Things they are an American company but I’ve found Seven Hill Crafts in the UK stocking it.
Check out my full tutorial below to see how I made them.
You can make really fun backgrounds with these pens and use any of your dies to make fun stencils which you can re-use.
I highly recommend you grab some of these pens they are a great addition for any crafter.
Enjoy
Sam
