Hi, I'm Ruth and I love crafting, especially card making. I've spent many years demoing at craft events, shows and in shops, meeting lovely people and making wonderful friends. In this channel I share crafting ideas, tips and tutorials.
In the past I have been privileged to demonstrate products from Tonic Studios, Trimcraft, Letraset (Promarkers), Pebeo, Plaid, edding, Winsor and Newton and Derwent.
I am a Content Creator for Tonic Studios and am also supplied with products from Spellbinders. I was a regular contributor to Cardmaking and Papercraft for 8 years.
Many of my videos will be showcasing new products from Tonic and I also show you through some of the magazines I have features in. I also have videos showing general card making where I show techniques and trends which are not brand specific.
I love getting to know other crafters and sharing ideas :)
My other passion is creative food presentation and I have recently started a new channel to share this.

Thank you Ruth. Another great video. 😊
Thank you once again Ruth for making it so simple to follow. I don’t think I could manage to do the makes without your wonderful videos!! Thank you so much xx
Your colour combinations are always perfect 🤩
Thank you so much, Rita!
Loved seeing you feeding the bird from your hand. The cards were great too.
Beautiful work!
Thank you so much, Patricia 😀
I love this video. Really helpful and well explained, thank you x
Great cards 😊
Thanks so much! Glad you like them :)
I loved the video, the wagon is adorable.
Thanks very much. Glad you liked it! It is a cute design :)
These boxes are adorable - thank you for a very thorough tutorial. I love how you explain the various steps to make these cute Christmas gift boxes.
Thank you so much, Denize. I appreciate the compliment :)
These are so cute. I love them all, but the gingerbread man is my favorite. I don’t know how you put all those curvy bits on so easily. I have a hard time with that kind of stuff😂. Thanks Ruth
Already sold out! 😢
They went really quickly. I know lots of people were waiting and ready to buy. Hopefully there will be more stock. I'll update if there is!
Really pretty I can't wait for mine to arrive they look like so much fun. Ty
Thanks very much, Pauline. They are fun little boxes!
They're all adorable! I think that happy Gingerbread Man has stolen my heart though ❤
Thanks very much, Melly! Yes, he's a little cutie!
Cute as a button!
Thanks so much!
I love those sets. They are a definite must have. Tons of ideas. You always knock it out of the park. Well done.
Thanks so much, Deb. Glad you like them. I did love these dies!! :)
They are lovely Ruth! so sweet, I love you're colour choice, don't they all go well together! Thank you for another great video. Crafty Hugs X
They are the cutest boxes. You always make it look so easy. Have a wonderful weekend. Well done.
Thanks so much, Deb 😊. I hope all's well with you :)
Just trying to order sold out
It went very quickly. Hopefully there will be more soon
When will it be on the USA site
It should be available in a few days. I will make a post about it at the time. Not a video but a post so be sure to keep an eye out for it
These are so so cute all three of them. Thanks for the tutorial. Great idea using the double sided tape. Less messy. Love your channel. ❤️🙋🏻♀️🤗
Thanks so much! 😊 The less mess, the better! ;)
Lovely Thankyou.
Thanks very much, Jenny :)
So cute, pretty as always Ruth xx
Thanks very much, Jayne :) xx
Not on US website yet. Message "coming soon". Thank you for putting the size in inches of the finished boxes. Of course, I want these.
In a couple of days, I've been told. I'll add a post at the time
@@ruthhamilton8025 Thank you and if I buy it then make sure that you put your affiliate link so I can use it.
So darn cute. Love these. Where did you start with the glue tabs on the stocking? Thanks so much for a great video and wonderful ideas.
Thanks very much, Patricia. You can see at 22:25, just under the "fur" around the top of the stocking. Aren't they so cute! Unfortunately I wasn't aware until a few minutes ago that they won't be available on the USA website for a couple of days. I'll make a post to update when they arrive in stock.
Placed my order with your link. Keep the ideas coming, please. I love your tutorials and your sense of humor 😅
Thank you so much, Kathryn. I really appreciate that :) I can't remember what I said now lol!
What a sweet set! Love your cards, too.
Thanks very much, Lolly. It all came together when I added shading on the hands.
These are so cute! Can see a little one that starts making cards using these and having a blast with them. I may even buy these to give to a little girl that would love them. Thanks so much for the ideas.
Thanks very much, Patricia :) I have several great nieces who would absolutely love these...and I also know a couple of older "young" ladies who have been making bracelets and would love these too! They would make great cards for craft fairs!
@@ruthhamilton8025 Wondering if there is a markdown with a bundle on these? Love them.
Love this set. I had to order it lol. Can't wait for more demonstrations and inspiration x
Thanks so much, Pat. I do intend to make more with these. Hopefully I will get time :) x
Beautiful cards. Looks like loads of fun was had. Have a great week.😊
Thanks very much, Deb. Have a lovely week :)
The little critters are cute and your cards were very nice. Thanks so much.
Thanks so much, Patricia. I enjoyed making these. They made me smile :)
Great video as always! Just got my kit and can't wait to make this one, appreciate the tips. The card is lovely, I never thought of using a tag sideways, thank you for the inspiration.
Thanks very much :) Sometimes if you just die cut some pieces and leave them on your desk, they will fall in ways that give you ideas for using them differently. :)
I absolute love your demos and ideas, you explain everything so well, thank you Ruth xx
Thanks very much! I really appreciate that! :) xx
Beautiful 🎉❤
Thank you so much!
Wish I could find this die. You did a great job as always!
Thanks very much, Sally. It was a beautiful set. You may be able to find it on one of the Tonic buy and sell FB groups. I don't know the names of the groups but you could try.
Beautiful, just watching again ❤
Thanks so much, Monica. I hope you enjoyed it :)
Thank you, this was so helpful. I may have replayed a few parts to get it right.
Thank you so much. I hope it was easy to follow :)
iuiuouo
Lovely products and loved your idea of the pj's and slippers on a get well card. Thanks for showing us these and will check out your videos, as always.
Thanks very much, Patricia. Sometimes my head buzzes with ideas but I don't have enough hours in the day to make everything so I try to drop a few other ideas in while I go along. Thanks for watching :)
The two bear card is absolutely adorable. What a great idea.
Thank you! 😊 It would be a great Valentine's Day card if I changed the colours a little...
Wonderful kits. Great cards and examples.
Thanks so much, Deb! Glad you liked them :)
So darn cute….i love Spellbinders…….Why? Because there’s no coloring involved. Just die cutting and create. Thanks for sharing. Have a blessed day/evening. ❤️🙋🏻♀️🤗
Thank you so much! I love that about Spellbinders too! Glad you liked these :)
Sorting die set out last night. Jo's here and Lauren. Making train for Lily. Jo looked at the set upside down. Jo said "wow, 901 dies" Lauren said "no, it's 106" Watching video this morning and when you said "106 dies" Jo laughed and said "you're telling fibs Ruth, it's 901"😂😂
Haha! That's funny lol! It's good there's someone watching and keeping an eye on me!
@@ruthhamilton8025 you got it right though. Jo's sort of fazed out just now. Funny how people look at things though, 🤔🤔😂👀
@@glennisdobson1894 it’s really nice to have company crafting too :)
@@ruthhamilton8025 it's the first real crafting session I've had this year. Must admit it was easier having someone do the cutting for me!! Good to discuss colourways too.
@@glennisdobson1894 it's always interesting too, to hear other ideas for what you're making as you go along :)
Absolutely gorgeous, can't wait to make one ,thank you Ruth xx
Thanks very much, Cynthia! Enjoy making yours. You'll love the finished tree :)
You always have such wonderful ideas for the dies!
Thank you so much, Jenn :)
which company has the tag punch? I love all your card ideas!!! and tag!!!
Thanks very much, Jean. The tag punch come s from Spellbinders. These are my affiliate links to it 3 in 1 TAG Punch UK bit.ly/3WQ99h6 USA bit.ly/3YXYrrw Hope that helps :)
thank you!!!
@@jeanheming you're welcome
Stunning!
Thanks very much, Debra!
Your card is beautiful. I’ve never used the stamping block and embellishment mousse to create texture. That is genius. Your memory book is beautiful. The journal idea is a great idea to help us keep getting creative. I’m always excited to see what you create. Have a great week.
Thank you so much, Deb! It's a very easy way of adding texture ...and not too messy as I like a kind of "controlled" mess" lol I hope you have a great weekend :)
Love love 49 and market. Glad to see you spreading your wings a bit. Love watching you.
Thanks so much, Dana! I'm loving the variety too! Thanks so much for watching and taking time to leave a comment :)
beautiful Ruth you obviously enjoyed playing with these
Thanks so much, Alicon. I'm glad that showed through. I did enjoy!!
