Merry Christmas

 MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all...

Wishing you a wonderful time with family and friends, 

stay safe and enjoy your time together.

Today I'm sharing one last card for 2021.

This is another card made using lots of gorgeous 

products from Paper Rose. 

First I stencilled onto the white cardstock using the stencil, a blending brush and distress oxides.

This stencilled piece was then matted using silver shimmer 

card and attached to my card front.

Snowflakes were diecut from silver shimmer card 

and silver glitter card.

The sentiment was stamped using a grey versa fine ink pad. The sentiment was then cut out using the banner die.

Below are all the Paper Rose products that I used to 

create this card.

17580 Banner 1 Large Die 

23863 Merry Xmas Stamp 

16519 Snowflake 4 Die

19057 Silver Shimmer Cardstock

Christmas Cards

Well hello again...

Are you ready for Christmas? 

Have you made your Christmas cards yet?

Today I'm sharing some cards I have made for Paper Rose using 

some of the Christmas Paper Collections that I have in my stash.

These papers are perfect for cutting up into strips and 

adding to cards.

I have used 18174 Festive Basics A5 Paper Pack, 

20357 B&W Christmas Paper and 

19772 Crisp Christmas Sentiment sheets to make these cards. 

Black cardstock was used to matt the christmas paper and 

the sentiment was raised using foam tape to make it pop 

on the card.

 

Happy Birthday

Yikes it's December already.

I hope you are ready and organised for this crazy month.

Today I am sharing two birthday cards I made for my twin nephews.

So now you know why they are same same but different.

I love using distress oxides and a blending brush through 

stencils. I have blended two of each colour through the 

stencil but I love how the pressure applied to the blending 

brush can also change the colour tone of image stencilled. I 

have used a Paper Rose 18454 Blending Brush.

For these two cards I have stencilled using the 

Paper Rose 18391 Hud Stencil and the 19619 Outline Alphabet Die. 

When cutting the die, it comes with an outline piece and a 

centre piece. I have used the outline of the letters on the green 

card and the centre of the diecut pieces on the blue card. 

For the background of these cards I have applied washi tape to 

the edges of the card base. I have then blended ink to the card, 

once done I have then removed the washi tape to leave a crisp 

white edge.

The stencilled image on the white cardstock is then matted 

with black cradstock to allow it to pop more on the card and matches well with the black diecut sentiment.

 

Summer Vibes Layout

 Hello....

Oh my goodness have you seen how cute the Paper Rose 

Beach Hut stamps and papers are??

Jump onto the Paper Rose website and check them out. 

To create this fun layout I have fussy cut images from the 

23752 Beach Huts 12x12 Paper Collection. The background paper and 

photo matt paper are from this collection too.

I have coloured stamped images of beach huts using Stampin 

Blend markers. The images have then been fussy cut.

The Paper Rose stamps that I have used are 23785 Beach Hut 2, 

23791 Beach Hut 4 , 23794 Holiday Hut and 23749 Little Boat Trio.

Cut the white cardstock to measure 25.5cm x 25.5cm. Distress the 

edges and stick onto the red spotty paper. Stencil across the white cardstock using the 19298 Cracked Stencil and some gesso or light moulding paste. Once dry add your photo and the fussy cut images. Add some gauze and sequins to finish off your layout.

Thanks for stopping by...see you in December YIKeS!

Hello my dear friend

 

Hello friends..

Time to share another project for Paper Rose. 

Those of you that know me well know how much I love hand 

stitching on cards and layouts.

For this card I have diecut using the 21060 Chloe's Coverplate Die. 

This is then stuck down onto a piece of paper from the 

21708 Watercolour Neutrals A5 Paper Collection. 

Poke holes around the diecut and stitch using coordinating 

thread. Once stitched it can then be attached to your card front.

Diecut your sentiment using paper from the 

21705 Watercolour Whimsy A5 Paper Collection. Diecut your 

small sentiment using 19586 Sentiment Strip Dies and cut 

from 20165 So Extra White Supporting Sentiments.

Lastly add a few small little flowers to finish your card off.

My Boy

 

November already....can you believe it??

Scary thing is, it will be Christmas before we know it.

It's my turn to share a DT project for Paper Rose. I love the 

papers in the new 23998 Dads Shed 12x12 Paper Collection so I 

thought I'd create a single page layout with it.

First thing I did was stencil some cogs lightly on the 

background paper. I have used 18867 Cogs & frames Stencil

and blended 18834 Black Hybrid Ink using a 18454 Blending Brush. 

I love using these brushes as you can add the ink as lightly 

or as heavily as you like.

Diecut out some cogs using the 17868 Cog Frame Die and some 

circles from the 21309 Track Circle Frame Dies. The cogs are 

cut from black and grey cardstock in my stash. The circles 

are from papers in the Dads Shed paper collection.

Fussy cut out cogs and double matt your photo using papers from 

the Dads Shed paper collection. Put your layout together. 

Draw around the edge of your layout using a black marker and 

splatter onto your layout using black ink.

Thanks for stopping by, see you back here on the 12th xx

Tool Shaker Card

Good Morning Friends

Today I'm sharing another card I have made for Paper Rose Studio.

This card is a shaker card using diecut pieces as the shaker bits.

Diecut out three 20874 Slimline Card Creator 2 Circles  

from cardboard and one from black cardstock. 

Tape them all together in layers; first black cardstock then 

add a piece of acetate behind the black cardstock before adding 

the three cardboard.

Next step is to die cut out four hammers, four screwdriver and four wrenches from silver cardstock. Diecut one saw from white 

cardstock using the 16542 Tool Set 1 dies.

Place the silver tools inside the circles before attaching to the 

21624 Slimline AU White Card Bases front to make a shaker card.

Add a sentiment from the 19023 Black & White Sentiment Sheets.
