Kaisercraft A touch of Gold..

IMG_7560 (Medium)Special cards for today, as it’s new years eve ( happy new year everyone!). These are card in a box cards, they fold down flat for ease of posting and I have adjusted the measurements so that they fit into a standard envelope. I will have to organise nathan to film another clip for these ones, anyway, The paper is kaisercraft A touch of Gold, and I die cut the balloons from gold foil card and glitter card ( the die is a kaisercraft one). I added some punched bunting, a few sequins and happy birthday stickers. I have been missing for a few days because our little dog Patches passed away,and it has been a very sad time.He had a wonderful long life, he was nearly 17, but I so miss my little shadow. I haven’t yet been able to go into the craft room as he used to lie under my desk at my feet whenever I was in there, but will make an effort tomorrow so that I can plan out some lessons. My new years resolution this year to to use up some of the paper collections I have and I have already made a start on that and you will see results over the coming weeks.For now, til tomorrow….

Card in a box cards

IMG_4067 (Medium)IMG_4070 (Medium)So, I started to go through my papers to have a bit of a cull, and straight away got distracted. This is a kaisercraft paper, a couple of years old ( and I can’t remember the name), and when I bought it I hadn’t learnt how to make these card in a box cards. when I saw the paper again this is the first thing I did with it.I have been through to the card room to try and find the rest of the paper so that I can tell you the name, but I have lost it again, I don’t think I finished it with these cards so I am sure it will turn up again , maybe in another couple of years! Meantime, if anyone knows the name of this collection can they let me know cos it’s going to drive me crazy!Today I have been making baby cards – I had to pull out all the baby card papers to make a special card for a friend, so while it was out I made a few more. Now I have moved onto engagement/wedding cards using kaisercrafts new collection xo ( funny name!!)Til tomorrow….
