Kaisercraft Antique Bazaar 4 and 5

IMG_3072 (Medium)IMG_3073 (Medium)Here are the last 2 cards I have made for now with Kaisercraft Antique Bazaar 6″ pad and matching collectables.I think these 2 cards would make great graduation cards, and if I hadn’t already made the graduation cards I need this year these two would have put in the box I keep for upcoming family events. Stampin Up cardstock for both bases, and some sequins sprinkled on the bottom card.well, the weekend has flown by far too quickly, and not a lot of cards made for the fair boxes, but some lessons sorted and all orders up to date, so not too bad! til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Antique Bazaar number 3

IMG_3070 (Medium)Another card using Kiasercraft Antique Bazaar 6″pad and collectables. Yesterday it was all about the music and today the theme is movies!Love the collectables in this range! Tonight all my blokes are out, so it is off to the craft room for me – A couple of orders, a class or two to organise, and then if it’s not too late some experimenting with some new folds..bliss…Til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Antique bazaar 1 and 2

IMG_3068 (Medium)IMG_3069 (Medium)Back to cards today, and these two are made with Kaisercraft Antique Bazaar which is a new release from Kaisercraft. I nearly didn’t buy this one as it was very similar to an older collection which I still have, but I loved the record collectables, so just bought the collectables pack and the 6″ pad.I have mixed it up a bit with the older collection which is Velvet Ensemble.If you have any of this older collection hiding in your craft space dig it out because these two collections compliment each other.A day off for me today, so I have done a very large grocery shop, and shouldn’t have to go back for at least a couple weeks, and the rest of the day will be spent relaxing in the craft room. I still have a couple of family birthday cards to make – female ones this time, so easy, and an order to fulfill, then it will be time to start thinking about lessons again! til tomorrow…..

kaisercraft Great Southern land, the rest..

IMG_8545 (Medium)IMG_8546 (Medium)Here are the last 4 cards I made with Kaisercraft Great Southern land papers and collectables. All the remaining bits and pieces are in a bag with some other bits and pieces ready for the craft fair.Speaking of which, I have spent this morning sorting out the boxes, and making a list of cards I need to concentrate on over the next few weeks. Nathan and I also spent some time photoing a lot of cards ready for this blog, so although no crafting today, lots of necessary sorting out has been done!Til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Great Southern Land

IMG_8540 (Medium)IMG_8542 (Medium)IMG_8544 (Medium)Here are some more cards made when I was meant to be cleaning out my paper stash! This is a series of paper from kaisercraft called Great Southern Land, and the matching collectables.No other embellishing required for these ones! This afternoon has been spent in the craft room preparing an order that came through last night, and I am about to head back there to finish the 8 cards required. Til tomorrow….

Another 2 cards with old kaisercraft paper….

IMG_8533 (Medium)Here are another 2 cards made with very old Kaisercraft Paper. Again I fussy cut the cake and candles images, and used the rest of the paper for layering. the sentiment stamp is from Stampin Up,stamped twice – once straight onto the paper, and another stamped onto some red paper and cut out. I added kindyglitz and sequins to finish.well, it’s the end of a busy week at work, and a very full and busy class this morning with all my usual lovely ladies, and 3 new ladies new to card making, so I am glad I can relax for the next few days and in between the usual weekend stuff enjoy some quality time in the craft room! Til tomorrow…..

old kaisercraft paper…

IMG_8529 (Medium)IMG_8530 (Medium)The first paper I came across when I started the big clean out was this set from kaisercraft -it must have been the first I bought,and it was before kaisercraft started releasing new collections every month and even naming their collections.It had been so long since I saw it, and new ideas for it came thick and fast.I fussy cut all the cakes, and used ribbon,sequins,lace and kindyglitz to decorate. the stamped sentiment is from Stampin up.that’s it for this morning – must get ready for work,it’s all about easter there this week! Til tomorrow….

A bit of stamping…

IMG_8562 (Medium)IMG_8564 (Medium)For a bit of a change, today i am posting a couple of stamped cards, using some recent purchases from Stampin Up. Top card…Stampin Up background papers, and a great new stamp set called Butterfly Basics – lots of different stamps in this set , some great for background work, which I stamped in yellow,stamped the butterfly in pink and punched it out with a matching butterfly punch ( which I have had for a while)and coloured the flower with prismacolour pencils.Bit of lace, ribbon and bling finished that one. The second card… I used  a big background stamp from stampin up called Something lacy,stamped some green fronds from Butterfly Basics, and again coloured the flower with prismacolour pencils.stamped and fussy cut the butterfly, added some buttons to the top corner,lace and a border punched with my Martha stewart lace border punch.Must find some time to play a bit more with this set – its so versatile! no crafting so far today, but I will spend an hour or two in the craft room tonight after tea just to wind down after a really busy week! til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Pop! 3 and 4..

IMG_8568 (Medium)IMG_8570 (Medium)More kaisercraft Pop! paper, There is a great sheet in this collection, full of words, so I have used it to cut out relevant greetings on these cards. A little bit of matting, and that’s all that’s needed on these clean and simple cards! til tomorrow……

Kaisercraft Pop! number 1 and 2

IMG_8566 (Medium)IMG_8567 (Medium)I have made so many cards with this paper (Kaisercraft Pop!) , I have taught a class using it, and I have even done a video blog post (Upcoming) for Paper flourish using it, so I can’t believe I haven’t put any up here on my own blog!these cards are totally self explanatory and only use the papers, and some plain cardstock for matting.The bottom card banners are from the matching sticker sheet.Must goa andf prepare for work…til tomorrow….
