Helllooooooo October! It’s my favorite time of the year, but that has nothing to do with this week’s Running with Scissors project. We’re on to a new stamp set and will be featuring interactive cards all month. I’d love to have you join me live every Thursday at 4pm US Central time. It’s the best way to get your questions answered and be inspired for some weekend crafting! If you can’t join me live, you should definitely check out the replay! (Psst! It’s at the end of this post!)

easy no-line watercolor – faux-line?

Ok, so I know two words that strike fear into many crafters – no-line (or is that just one word since it’s hyphenated?) Anyway, everyone wants to be expert at it, but so many fail and find it totally intimidating. This is like an intermediate step to the fabled no-line technique that I think you will find enjoyable and rewarding!

Let’s call it faux-line, shall we? Because, really, there are lines. Big, visible lines to help you paint. But, in the end, they melt in and look like an organic part of the painting, making it look no-line.

easy interactive

This stamp and die set comes with everything you need to make easy interactive cards. You don’t need to go overboard and spend hours and hours on an interactive design to make it surprise and delight the recipient. This is a simple slider that is easy to put together. We used the slide here in another project so you can see how easy it is to adapt.

catch the replay!

If you missed the live stream on Thursday, here’s the replay! I hope you can join me live next Thursday at 4PM US Central Time for more crafty fun!
