Essentials by Ellen January Release Blog Hop!

Hi! Hello! How are ya?! I’m so glad you’re here to celebrate as we launch the new Essentials by Ellen January release! There are SO MANY s’whale new stamps and dies!!! Julie has done it again!! That girl — she’s fin-tastic, right! Right! Okay so let’s swim to it! I made 2 cards for today …

Hello hello! I’m honored to be guest blogging over at the CLASSroom today for Ellen Hutson! I’ll be sharing ideas for making a sleighfull of Christmas cards, all made super fun and simple thanks to the daVinci #30 Flat Wash brush. This guy is my new BFF! It’s so easy to make neat watercolor backgrounds thanks to this brush plus Daniel Smith watercolors.

Here’s a peek at just a few of the cards I made — once I started playing with this Big Guy I just couldn’t stop!

Besides that brush, I’ve listed a few of the fave supplies that I used below. If you’re just gonna get one supply besides that brush, I’d say to go for the Daniel Smith Bronzite watercolor. It’s so pretty and adds just a hint of shimmer to anything you mix it with. LOVE!
