Kaisercraft Silver Bells number 3…

IMG_2857 (Medium)Kaisercraft Silver Bells once again, this time the pink tones of the paper. I used the papers from the 6″ pad for this one, and as for the previous card folded the front of the card back on itself.Inside I used an image from a 12 x 12 paper ( which had room on it for writing your greeting)and added lace and ribbon. I also edged all around all the papers with tea dye distress ink. it was good to catch up with all my ladies at a lesson today, and one day of work tomorrow then the weekend! Til tomorow….

Kaisercraft Silver bells 2..

IMG_2851 (Medium)I made a few cards with this paper (kaisercraft Silver Bells) where I folded the card front back on itself and decorated – just for something a bit different! The card front and inner back is decorated with a piece of the 6″pad and I used a collectable for the focal point. A piece of 12 x 12 paper is stuck inside the inner back so that you can write your greeting. I like this – no inserts to do! Til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft silver bells number 1.

IMG_2854 (Medium)Today we make a start on my Kaisercraft Silver Bells collection. I have made a lot with this collection, so we will probably divide the viewing into a few groups over the next few weeks so as not to bore you all to tears!I bought the 6″ pad, a sheet each of the 12 x 12 papers( one of them is a whole sheet of baubles which I fussy cut out) and a packet of the collectables. This particular card is stampin up cardstock,a layer of 12 x 12 paper, and a couple of the collectables. I inked all my edges with tea dye distress ink, and added a piece of ribbon and lace to the bottom. The sentiment is from a piece of the 12  x 12 paper.Most of these cards will be kept for my personal use as I really love this paper! Til tomorrow…..

Kaisercraft little One…baby boy card.

IMG_9545 (Medium)We are jumping all over the place this month, but I found a baby Boy card I made with kaisercraft Little one paper and collectables that I forgot to post.I used and elephant collectable on a card front from a piece of the 12 x 12 paper and glued on some buttons, fibbon bow and linen thread.Love the elephants in this collection! Today I was over at Mum and dads and put together some cards which I will finish in a couple of weeks when I go to our ( a few crafty friends and myself) craft afternoon get together. I have decided if I have everything ready to stick together I might actually get something done rather than just chat the afternoon away, although that is fun too!I have a few orders to do tonight and I want to get them done quickly because I have a big bundle of new stampin up stuff to play with. The Christmas papers are gorgeous and I have many ideas for them.Also have lots of new stamps, ribbon, embossing folders and dies.Today has been a glorious day here in Adelaide, and I have even had the air conditioner on for a little while,that’s the earliest in the season it’s ever been on so I wonder if we are in for a long hot summer?Til tomorow….

happy 1st of spring day!!

IMG_9555 (Medium)Happy 1st of spring day ( or Autumn day if you are a visitor from the northern hemisphere). the weather here is glorious… my kind of weather, not too hot, sun shining, I can feel my bones thawing out! todays card is made with Kaisercraft botanica collection – the 12 x 12 papers, and I fussy cut the flower stem from some of the paper. Added a doily, ribbon bow and inked all the edges with tea dye ink. This one was a class card,as were the previous two shown. well, time for work, til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Botanica number 2…

IMG_9553 (Medium)For my second Kaisercraft Botanica card I used a lilac card blank,and did some layering and fussy cutting to finish. the word Friend came from another piece of the same collection. I have spent a little time in the craft room today and I have been making a few more cards with this collection,it is lovely. I have moved on now to some graphic 45 gilded lily cards because I havent made any with all the paper I bought in that collection and thought I had better get started! all in all a great crafty day! Til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Botanica number 1…

IMG_9550 (Medium)Kaisercraft botanica collection is another collection that I invested in, but have had very little time to play with. I have got a few to show you,based on lessons I did with this paper a couple of months ago, but again, can’t wait to get back to this collection and really get creative. this card… Lilac cardstock for the base card, and some layering with patterned paper and plain cardstock. A doily and ribbon bow to decorate. while I have a minute, I would like to thank all of you that leave comments for me – it is much appreciated! Blogging is a solitary pursuit, and it does mean a lot to me to know that there are a few of you out there reading my efforts! til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Little One 2..

IMG_9543 (Medium)Kaisercraft Little one paper collection – the 6″ pad and matching collectables with a touch of ribbon! I really enjoyed playing with this collection, although i have only made a few cards so far, they are very different from my usual vintage style baby cards. Love the colours! today I am finally enjoying some time in the craft room, finding my chriatmas mojo. It’s all coming back to me! The weather here is very distracting, the sun is shining, the bees are buzzing about and blossom is exploding on some of the fruit trees, it’s lovely just sitting out in the garden feeling the sun on my face! til tomorrow….

I am going to stamp out some more images and sit in front  of the tv tonight and colour them in ready for cards tomorrow ! til tomorrow….
