Good Morning Amanda,these are great ,very striking and great fun to do .What a lovely way to spend the day if you've got snow outside,just play away with you're inks!!!😁😁😁Xx

[@lollilulucrafts]

OOh I had snow a couple days back but sadly already made these and now snow melted - why you not say this sooner lol! In all seriousness it was fun. I made the red one first but for some reason the camera didnt film (might of been cos I didnt press the on button - do you think that might be it??) so I did a second one, and then thought I cant just show two at the end, so did a third, and it was so quick and easy and the fun thing was trying something different, heat gun for me, and see how that effected it. Anyway glad you liked, hugs xx

Super colourful beauties Amanda, something different! 😊🌟

[@lollilulucrafts]

thank you, It was great using these vibrant colours, but i see the inks also come in softer shades so maybe need to get some and try something a little more delicate and see how that looks. Maybe some other techniques with it too? I dont know stencils?? umm lol Hugs and thanks xxx oh emojis xxx

Wow Amanda! I love this technique and the results. These would make great man cards as I am always looking for ones and is the weakest part in my card making. Thank you for sharing your brilliant talents with us. Big Hugs!

Funnily enough, and I can say as he doesnt watch my videos, but the green yellow one is actually for my dads birthday, so I obviously think you are right in that, and of course whoever its for you can pick their fav colours too so its really personal> As for mens cards go to my website and the video library ( www.lollilulucrafts.co.uk/videos/ ) and you will see a thumbnail pic labelled cardz 4 men. Here you will see all my videos of specifically mens cards so that might help you. I must be doing something right as 25% of my audience are men :-) When I started I didn't do this cardz 4 men thing and my male viewers were consistently around the 4% for years and then I started this and it started going up. Anyway enjoy and enjoy the new video library on the site. I think its all a lot easier to use now I have revamped it all. Hope you like xxxx

My pleasure Anne, so glad you enjoyed, it was fun to make for sure and so super easy, xxx

looks like a lot of fun...try using a straw and blow it around and use a mini mister with alcohol in it fun fun fun pat

[@lollilulucrafts]

I saw that somewhere on a video, but I didnt have a straw so I thought actually lets go rogue and just really go for it anyway. I love how it cant go wrong. I would like to get the blending solution as i think that will create some great effects. hugs to you lovely xx
