Gesso and Gelato Stamping - With a Video

Hi!! Lisa with you here again and I'm super excited to have a VIDEO for you today. Woohoo! I was super excited to learn a nifty new way to use my Gesso in card-making and I thought I'd show you all how I used it in the above card. It's so easy and so fun! You can even TINT the Gesso with your Gelatos® if you want to give the Gesso a different color other than white.

Tailor-made background with Art GRIP® Aquarelle Watercolor Pencils

Hello Faber-Castell fans!

Emmy's here with my first post as a Guest Designer for Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft. 

I had this cute picture from my best friend's little girl and I was wondering for a long time what would be the best way to desplay it. And after I saw the bright yellow and red Art GRIP^® Aquarelle Watercolor Pencils I knew in an instant that the best way is to create my own background paper.
