Porcelain Rose number 12
A little while ago I went back to some previous paper collections and made some more cards with them ( to try and use up the paper to make more space for new stash!) so over the next few days I will post the results – this card is made using Kaisercraft Porcelain Rose paper collection – here I used the 6″ pad for the base,and a sheet of 12 x 12″ paper for the top layers. The rose border is from the sticker sheet and the bird image is from the collectables. Stampin Up sentiment stamp, pearls, and ribbon to finish.Til tomorrow…..
Vintage gingham garden
The paper I used on this card is from Stampin up – Gingham garden. Although the colours are quite modern I couldn’t resist giving this one a bit of a vintage twist – by adding ribbon, lace, a flower and a doily which I coloured with my squeezed lemonade distress ink pad. I am quite liking the yelolow/ pink colour combination at the moment1The sentiment is also from stampin up. Til tomorrow…..
Kaisercraft Secret Admirer number 10
While looking through my files to post something tonight I found a card that never made it to my blog when I made this series. The paper collection is Kaisercraft Secret Admirer, and it was a favourite when it was released.I think I still have some left, but always full of good intentions to get back to paper collections , it hasn’t happened yet! I teamed the paper with the matching collectables for this card, and added some ribbon and rhinestone strips and butterflies punched with a Martha Stewart punch. I have been in the craft room in the evenings this week fulfilling some orders, but tonight is T.V. Night! til tomorrow…..
Stamped fuschia card
Very slow internet tonight – very nearly didn’t get this post done, but here we are – A kazzazz Fuschia stamp,which i coloured with my distress markers and an aqua brush. The cardstock is Stampin up pink Pirouette and wisteria wonder, and the border embossing folder is by Darice. The ribbons and sentiment stamp are from Stampin Up. Well thats my weekend officially over – went far too quickly, but at least I got my October lessons done. I have laid out some things on my craft table to do a scrap book page, so will work on that on and off this week, til tomorrow,…..

The sentiment stamps are from Stampin Up.The top ard uses some of the colectables from the matching pack.Must go before dinner is cooked to a crisp! Til tomorrow….
Summer Breeze number 3
Kiasercraft Summer Breeze paper pad, and matching collectables were used for this card – and i used a lot of collectables to create a riotous garden of colour! I inked around each piece with pink ink and used foam pads on some of the pieces for different heights. I added some kaisercraft rhinestones, and the sentiment stamp is from Stampin Up. A lovely morning with my ladies this morning, and I have had a nice rest this afternoon, so tonight I will be found in the craft room fulfilling some orders, and playing with some new stuff! til tomorrow….
Tea for two and Dress forms – stampin up number 2
Two cards today, and the one on the left uses all the same products as the card on the previous post, but I used Bashful Blue cardstock instead of Pink cardstock, and used a different piece of patterned paper from the Tea for Two range. The card on the right uses Attic boutique paper from Stampin up, and lace an d flower trim, also from stampin up.Same ideas – different looks! It’s a very cold afternoon here in Adelaide, the end of the working week, and I am looking forward to getting into the craft room this weekend – I haven’t been in there all week – it’s just been too cold to move very far from the heater! Til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft Porcelain rose number 1
Quick post tonight as I am a bit tired after my two days at the craft fair, and one more day still to go. It’s been great fun, meeting new people, seeing lots of familiar aces, and selling lots! todays card is made using kaisercrafts new range – Porcelain Rose. I particularly like this one as it has a few different colourways as you will see over the next couple of days. For this card I used the 6″ pad and matching collectables, and added a hand rolled flower ( easy to do – just punch out a circle, cut it into a spiral and roll it up) a kaisercraft flower, ribbon and a stampin up sentiment stamp. I am off to put my feet up – Til tomorrow…..
Lucky Last Bo Bunny Surprise number 13
Here is the lucky last Bo Bunny Surprise card. Lots of Stampin Up cardstock on this one, and stampin Up embossing folder too. I fussy cut the images and star strip from the bo bunny collection, and added them all to the card. Just needed a bit of kindyglitz on the bow to finish. Today I have been putting together some card kits to sell on my Fair stall – we will see how they go – if there is enough interest this is something I might get into as I have enjoyed myself doing them. Tomorrow morning will be photo time, hopefully we have some natural sunlight available for that – its been lovely and wet here the last couple of days – we never complain about rain! Til tomorrow….
