Kaisercraft storyteller number 4

IMG_3715 (Medium)Kaisercraft Storyteller paper pad, collectables, ribbon and flower. A little bit of fussycutting of the paper that looks like lace. The colours in this collection fall into two distinct catagories, and after the first few cards ( already shown ) I separated them, and so the next few cards over the next couple of days fall into the blue hues.Lovely paper! The craft fair is over for another year, and I had a great time catching up with fellow crafters and friends, and just watching the world go by! of course quite a few stopped, and I sold a lot of cards but also had lovely chats with lots of lovely ladies. I am already looking forward to next year! Til tomorrow….

Yesterday was a great day, sold lots, and saw so many of my crafting friends.Bought a few things from other stalls, but i am trying to pace myself ! Today I will pop by and see the lace lady and stock up on my supply of lace. Anyway, todays card is made with Kaserscraft Storyteller 6″pad ( for the background) and the strip in front is from a piece of 12 x 12 paper -that particular paper is gorgeous – has lots of borders on it. I also used an ek success border punch, and ribbon and a kaisercraft mini flower. Til tomorrow….

Echo Park/Graphic 45 Transatlantique

IMG_0271 (Medium)This paper collection is unique because it is a collaboration between two paper houses – echo park and graphic 45.I have made quite a few cards from this paper, but this is the only one that made it to be photographed – the others all sold before the camera came out!I have layered a couple of pieces, wrapped one layer in twine, and added craftworks candii to the corners. The sentiment stamp is stampin up. I must see what i have left of this paper and make some more! til tomorrow…..
