Kaisercraft paradiso number 1

IMG_5847 (Medium)As the weather in some parts of Australia is so hot, I thought it only fitting to post  some beach cards. Luckily for us here in Adelaide the weather hasn’t been quite so hot, today has been lovely, but all the same I do feel sorry for those suffering the heat. The paper collection featured for the next few days is a release from last month by kaisercraft called Paradiso, and the main images on the cards all came from one of the 12 x 12 sheets. Thrifty crafting at its best because I made 6 cards out of this sheet! All I added here were a couple of buttons and some twine and a few of the matching collectables. The cardstock is some retired stampin up cardstock.This weekend I am working on some baby cards to replenish my market boxes. Til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Tea Break number 5

IMG_3173 (Medium)kaisercraft Tea Break paper collection, and matching collectables, with a sentiment stamp from stampin up ( as is the cardstock) and an assortment of flowers and ribbon. I spent this morning sorting out my market boxes – I only do the one big three day fair each year but sell a lot of cards over the course of the three days, so I had to see what cards I needed to do to fill them -and it seems I have a bit of crafting ahead of me to fill them! This afternoon I made a start by making some little boy birthday cards with some great stamps from stampin up – Zoo Babies the set is called, next on the list is baby cards. Til tomorrow..

Kaisercraft tea Break number 4

IMG_3172 (Medium)A bit of humour today! Love this paper from Kaisercraft – Tea break. Vintage feel and great colours.I did something a bit different with all the corners – instead of rounding them I squared them off, I quite like the effect and will try this again one day – I used the little off cuts to stick in the opposite corners.did some matting as well, using some stampin up cardstock which matched in perfectly colourwise. Hope you all have a safe and happy new year,  til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft True Romance number 11

IMG_5832 (Medium)the last paper collection i used for my order was this one from Kaisercraft – True Romance . One of my favourite collection from this year, love the delicate colours. Here I have used the 12 x 12 papres and matching collectables, a few Kaisercraft rhinestones and kindyglitz, and a stampin up sentiment stamp to finish. Spent today wrapping xmas presents and playing with the new graphic 45 paper.. its beginning to feel a lot like christmas… Til tomorrow…

kaisercraft lady Rose number 7

IMG_6074 (Medium)we are back to Kaisercraft Lady Bella papers tonight.. The papers I used here are from the 6″ pad, and the label is from the pack of collectables.I used my stampin up sizzix gift bow die to make the bow, and added some kaisercraft pearls, a mini flower and a little prima pearl swirl under the butterfly.I do love this paper and can’t wait to get back to it, in the meantime I had a bit of a splurge and bought all the new releases from kaisercraft this month, but will have to wait til I can play with them as I have a large order to complete over the weekend. Til tomorrow….
