The shop I teach lessons at runs a challenge every month, and this monthe challenge was ” words”. we were given a sheet of this kaisercraft paper and sent off to create working with the theme words. I came up with two cards, this is the first.Along with the paper ( I can’t remember which collection this one came from – will have to research that) I used all stampin up products – cardstock, seam binding, ruffled ribbon and sentiment stamp.I finished off with a couple of kaisercraft pearls. I was hoping I would be showing my xmas card creations using up my scraps, but due to technical difficulties of the computer sort, Nathan has been busy trying to fix my computer for most of today, so no time left to get the camera out. He seems to have succeeded, and I am grateful cos the alternative was going to have to be spend money on a new one!Til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Lavender haze – 10 speedy cards…
Something a bit different for the next couple of days. I have done this series which I am calling 10 speedy cards. I used a 6″ pad ( kaisercraft lavender haze,) and a packet of matching collectables and made 10 cards using the same sketch design.The only other embellishments required are some ribbon and lace and you can make these in one sitting in just an hour or two!Here is the recipe …. take 10 sheets from the 6″ pad, and cut each of them into 2 pieces measuring 10.5 cms across, and 7.5 cms down. That gives you 20 pieces. match up top and bottoms and stick them on to your card front. ( the size of card is 10.5 cm across, and 15 cms down)0r an a5 piece of cardstock folded in half…then using ribbon or lace cover the join. you can also use the border strips that come in the collectables pack and the back of the pad as I have done .Then it is just a matter of affixing the assorted collectables ( and some of the labels from the pad) onto the card with foam pads to finish. I also added some bling cos that’s just what I do! Tomorrow I will put up some more of the 10 cards. Til tomorrow…..
Kaisercraft Storyteller number 11
This is Kaisercraft Storyteller patterned paper, and the last card in this series, for now.I used the couture creation cameo die set, and a martha stewart leaf punch, as well as some mini flowers ( kaisercraft) and a ribbon bow.We have done some photoing today, but the computer has been playing up so Nathan has been busy fixing it, so the photos aren’t on here yet!Another very cold day here,I am about to go and sit in front of the heater and do some watercolouring. Til tomorrow….
Storyteller number 10
For this one I used the same piece of 12 x 12 storyteller patterned paper ( kaisercraft) as yesterdays card, and cut the strip with the flower image, and fussy cut the lace printed strip, and stuck both on to the front of my white card blank. Just added a mini flower, ribbon and punched leaf to finish. Today I have spent a lot of time in the craft room using up some older papers – hopefully we will be able to find some time to photograph them in the next day or so! til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft Storyteller number 9
Today we are revisiting Kaisercraft Storyteller patterned paper, with a card that I designed for one of my classes last month. I cut the top third off the front of a square card blank, and layered some paper on the back piece, then covered the front piece, and fussy cut the piece of 12 x 12 paper that had the clock image on it to layer on top. In between these layers I placed a die cut ( couture creations cameo set die) and added a ribbon bow and perfect pearls.A short shift at work today, so I have spent an hour or so in the craft room clearing up some unfinished projects, and all ready for a full day in there tomorrow.. can’t wait! til tomorrow…..
Kaisercraft Storyteller number 8

( I will be taking some crafty bits and pieces with me!)Til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft Storyteller number 7
Kaisercraft Storyteller 6″ pad, lace,assorted flowers, and ribbon bow. The leaf is die cut with a sizzix biigz leaf die, which I have had for ages, but only started using recently, In fact i took it out for the lesson I did today, and wondered why it was so long before I used it, so you may see it on more cards in the future!I taught a lesson today with a lovely group of ladies all brave enough to come out in the cold wet weather we are experiencing. In fact it is too cold to sit in the craft room, and so I am going to bring the projects I am currently working on into the lounge room! Til tomorrow….
