These are the last two cards I made with Kaisercraft Xo papers. I have put it away for now as what with this collection and the previous simple stories series of cards I have enough wedding, engagement and anniversary cards to last me quite some time.Thinking of that very thing I made the top card a birthday card and punched a border,die cut a doily and added some collectables,ribbon and pearls. the bottom card was the card I gave my husband for Valentines day.The strip across the middle was fussy cut from some of the paper, and by luck I have a border punch ( by EK Success) which punches a very similar border which I added punched out of white cardstock.I just added a heart collectable and small ribbon bow to finish.Til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft xo…2 and 3..
Kaisercraft xo paper collection. The top card ( which will be mum and Dads anniversary card next month) has a card front cut from a piece of 12 x 12 paper and some use of the matching collectables, and a ribbon bow. the bottom card also uses a card front from the 12 x 12 paper, and I have popped on a die cut flower which was sitting handily on my desk, a pearl and a die cut heart. This one I put an engagement verse inside. The cardstock that I used for this whole range of cards is stampin up pool party.Well, it was back to work yesterday,and everything is falling into the work routine, so I must be off or else I will be late for my second day back at work! til tomorrow…..

Dressing up my Prima doll stamps
I used some more of the kaisercraft spring bloom paper collection to dress my Prima Doll stamps.I love creating cards with these stamps, and they always look different depending on the colours I use. I also used some of the collectables from the collection, and some fussy cut flowers. the butterfly on the second card is a prima butterfly. Very hot here today, very lazy day! til tomorrow…..
Kaisercraft Spring bloom
When sorting out my papers I came across some Kaisercraft Spring Bloom paper so quickly put all tidying on hold to make up a couple of cards while inspiration was upon me!The top card just uses the papers and matching collectables, while the bottom card uses a cut out that I did on my Cricut machine and the forever young cartridge.I also used some wee flowers and a leaf and butterfly punch for this one.I kept some of the paper but a lot of it has now gone into a bag to sell at the craft fair in June.It’s tough, but decisions have to be made or else I can’t buy more!speaking of which, I finally got kaisercrafts blue bay, and Betsy’s couture range this week, so something new to play with!Til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft Sandy Toes 5
Kaisercraft sandy toes .. The background paper is from a piece of 12 x 12 paper, and the rest of the card uses bits and pieces from the 6″pad.A couple of sequins and thats it!Today I have been in the craft room, making a few cards to use up more papers. I am making some headway in the aim to clear some of the backlog of paper, and have made up a few bags of bits,strips and bobs to sell at my craft fair stall in June.The only trouble I am having is seeing the old paper and seeing it with new eyes …and thinking oh, I could do that or that, and then it’s back to the craft table to make more cards, so this is going to be a long job! Til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft sandy Toes number 4
Kaisercraft sandy Toes paper and matching collectables. The trim ( I love!) is Prima, and I used a kaisercraft sparklet and stampin up cardstock and bitty banner sentiment. Perfect male card right there!I haven’t been in the craft room today, I went over to Paper flourish this morning to drop off my March classes, and ended up visiting all morning! I was looking for some papers to get a head start on April lessons, but while there a new shipment of Kaisercraft Dies came in. I love their dies as they are so easy to use – the dies cuts just fall out – no struggling, so I bought a couple more to add to my growing collection. I don’t think I will buy any other brand now, Kaisercraft seem to be coming out with new ones every month so there is always a good choice.Til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft Sandy Toes number 3
Kaisercraft Sandy Toes..and a lot of the matching collectables on this one. I inked around all my edges for definition, and added a few sequins.First day of my holidays, and I was going to pick up the new release of Kaisercraft from paper Flourish, but it hasn’t come in yet, so I spent the morning in the craft room finishing off my March classes, and cleaning up my craft table – I can see it again! I have promised myself that I won’t let it get like that again . I have a new 6 drawer cabinet which I have put in the crafting annex to hold all my christmas dies, embossing folders, papers etc, so that may be a job for tomorrow.Til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft Sandy Toes number 2
Today we start a new collection – Kaisercraft Sandy toes.Great paper collection for this time of year although we have been lucky here lately – not too hot at all, just lovely sunny days.For this one I did some basic layering, and fussy cut the palm trees from a panel to place at the bottom of the card, stamped a sentiment with a stampin up stamp, and added a few sequins ( my new like) scattered across the card.Now that I have a couple of weeks off I will be visiting spotlight to get a few more colours.Til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft Rustic harmony (number 7.)
While I was making the stepper cards I made one with Kaisercraft rustic harmony paper, and then made a box to pop it into as it was quite bulky by the time I finished it.Lots of lovely lace trim on the card on the left, and a little more on the box lid on the right. I also used – martha stewart lace doily punch and leaf punch, spellbinders rolled roses and papillion butterflies dies,and Kaisercraft mint pearls.A lovely lazy day today, with a little crafting, and lot of relaxing! til tomorrow….
