Paper Rose Perfect Pairs Paper Collection | Scraps

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Paper Rose.

 

Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 

After my first card using the Perfect Pairs collection I had alot of little pieces of paper. This card is purely made up of those papers.

Strips of paper were cut at 1.3cm wide and vary in length. 

 

Product List Below 

Perfect Pairs 6x6 Paper Collection 35776 

Perfect Pairs Embossed Die Cuts  35800

I used the So Extra Black 1.0 sentiment pack as these cards were a last minute sub-in and now discontinued. So I have linked the All Occasions Sentiment 22339 set which really is the set I mostly used. I had the So Extra on a retreat to use up.

Clear Crystal Mix 19499

 

 

This card is a mix of scraps and cut pieces. Glued down after working out a nice composition of colours.

 

 

 

Main panel is cut at 8.5cm x 13.5cm adhere to the far right edge. Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches aren't a big thing here in Australia but the image was soo cute and in the So Extra pack there was a perfect sentiment of "Hands Down, best ever" I personally have never tried it but it was soo cute I couldn't help myself. :)

 

That is all from me today. Thank you for your time.

Moving Along With The Times | Floral

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Altenew. This month's theme is "Floral" on the blog Moving Along With The Times and who else does floral better than Altenew.

 

Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 

Feature Panel Size 9.3 x 13.7cm (3 5/8 x 5 3/8) 

Matt 10 x 14.4cm (3 7/8 x 5 9/16) 

 

 

 

Product List Below 

 

Altenew Serene Blooms and stencil set

Flowers - Plum, Grape Agate, Amethyst and Pale Mauve

Leaves - Moss 

Flower Centres - Paper Bag

 

Background - Caramel Toffee and Canyon Clay  

 

 

I stamped and used 3 flower images and cut off any areas that were coming off the edge of the cardstock. These pieces were used to fill in other areas of the card panel. All flowers were raised up with foam tape. The sentiment shadow was cut out 3 times and layered up to give more dimension as it would of been much harder to apply foam tape and still have it higher than the flowers again.
 

 

I hope you join in on this months challenge. I look forward to seeing your creations.

 

Thank you for your time.

Altenew Level 3 AECP with Michelle Lupton

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Altenew

My friend Michelle Lupton, as part of the Altenew Level 3 Education Program, taught a free online class last weekend.

 

 

Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 

I love both of the cards but I think this one is my fav!

Watercolour background, heat embossed on vellum and coloured using Copics

 For the second card we used coordinating stencils for a rainbow flower. It is a much softer flower.

It is hard to see in the photo we used an embossing folder to give added dimension. I used Altenews Ribbon Embossing Folder. Michelle had a much more geometric folder which I didn't have.

 

 

That is all from me today. Thank you for your time.

New Designer Craft Addiction UK | Cottontail

Hi All, 

 Today's card is using products from Craft Addiction UK. 

My friend Louise Dunne has made her first stamp set and it is super cute. Louise and I were on a Design Team together and when I went to Europe last year we had to meet. She sent me this set but unfortunately due to the postal system... somewhere it was late for the release so I'm playing catch up.

 

Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 

Feature Panel Size 9 x 12.8cm (3 1/2 x 5) 

 

Product List Below 

Craft Addiction UK Cottontail but for Aussie Peeps you can find it here 

Gummiapan Large Postage D250724

 

Copics Used

BG49, BG13 and BG11 

BV04, BV02 and BV01

 

Paper Rose Clear Crystal Mix 19499 

 

This background die is the postage die from Gummiapan however, I decided I just wanted the inverted  scallop on one side. I have left the stitching detail on all edges. 

 

A fairly clean and simple design with a little texture on the bunnies, this was made using small very light flicks. Darker colours in areas where there would be shadow and placed close together and slowly getting less and less. If you want a video of this technique let me know.

 

That is all from me today. Thank you for your time.

Pixi Dust Designs Magic World | Valentines Card

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Pixi Dust Designs

 

This card is made super easy with the etched lines that were left when you cut out all the pieces.They show where to place most of the elements. Simply a matter of adding the ink, if you wish, adhering the pieces and you can use the packaging if you have any questions. I inked around most of the pieces with a variety of ink, listed below. A little more ink on the wavy lined paper.

I masked off bottom of the sentiment with post it notes,  I stamped the "You put a spell on me" on the banner and the last part of the sentiment on the inked panel and sealed it with clear embossing powder as the paper has a beautiful semi gloss. The embossing will prevent it smudging.

In the kit you had ... almost like tissue paper but they had a backing you pull off to adhere, Yes, I cut all the leaves out that you see here. A little tedious for sure but it didn't take a long time. I wanted a cascade  of falling leaves on the left hand side.

Paper Rose Perfect Pair Paper Collection | Centre Pop Up Card

Hi All, 

Today's card is using products from Paper Rose. 

I received a card from a friend, Judy, so with her blessing I have recreated it. She knows I am and tickled pink I am remaking her card. She doesn't do blogging or Youtube but she does follow. 

Here is her card to me.

 This is mine.

 

Card Size Aus A6 which is 10.5 x 14.9cm (4 1/8 x 5 7/8) 

 

The card base is the same as an Aussie card base. So my American friends will have to alter the measurements for the background paper. The rest should be fine. 

 

Card base

Fold it in half and then you will fold each half again so you will have 4 equal panels.

 

The centre band is 2.5cm x 16 cm (1" x 6 1/4") I scored the piece 4 times but I think it might be better to score the middle 2 score lines and just fold the 2 side panels when you make the card but I will give you all my measurements. Scored at 1", 2 1/4, 3 5/8 and 5 1/4.

 

The pop up piece I used a 3 1/2" scallop die and 3 3/16 Stitched circle die. Stitched piece is cut out of a piece of the paper from the pad. Scallop circle is cut from Paper Rose Purple Pansies, which is also used for the matt on the background.

  

Measurements for Design paper 

4.2cm x 13.7cm (1 5/8 x 5 3/8) you need 4 of these. I have used 2 different papers.

Matt

4.8cm x 14.2cm (1 7/8 x 5 1/2) again you will need 4 of these

 

You can glue each paper to the matt but before you add the 2 ones you want for the far left and right you will need to add the centre pop up piece. After you glue the 2 middle back panels lay the card flat on your table and add a little bit of glue to the far edges of the centre piece and roughly place it in the centre (top to bottom) and have the 2 middle score lines on either of the very centre score line on the card base. Check out the video below for more help.

 

When you wish to add the scallop circle, place the card base open and flat on your table and you simply apply a little bit of glue in between the 2 middle  score lines and adhere the scalloped circle.
