Loving Cards and Chipboard

Hello Everyone,


It is Lauren and Teddy up on the blog today with a couple of cards for you to have a look at and hopefully get some inspiration from.


So here they are:


The first is my usual shabby type card with a Paris theme, now who would not like to see Paris at some stage?

 

 

Viva modelling crème over Memory Box Stencil - Texture Splatter Spray, border and doily are Kaisercraft Dies - Lacy Border and Lacy Doily.  Butterfly is Memory Box Isabella Butterfly and Memory Box Pipi Butterfly.  Pearls are Kaisercraft Pearls.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Love, love in Paris, yes well this love is from A2Z Scraplets  Brush Words and has been decorated with black Tombow Pen and Glossy Accents

 

 

 

 

 

Love charms and decorated charms, I cannot take the credit for this one, it comes from Tracy at My2Angels. 

 

 

 

The next card is a bit Clean and Simple for me, such a stretch not to cover up that white space.

 

 

 

 

These gorgeous Butterflies from Z2Z Scraplets  are called Maisie Butterflies Set of 3  and they are just gorgeous and so perfect for this card!!!  Stamp from Kaszazz.  The Butterflies have been done with Stampendous Embosssing Powder Shabby Blue (I love these shabby colours), which gives a thick melt with a hint of blue on white with gold speckles.  The edges have been touched with Viva Inka Gold in Aquamarine.

 

 

 

 

A close look at the finish on these butterflies.

 

 

Hope you like these, go on, do some creating now, and don't forget about the A2Z Challenge this month, and we are also having an Easter Weekend Challenge with loads of challenges and fun and games :) Something for everyone including the kidlets!!  Check it out https://www.facebook.com/events/1663115533951222/

Get Well Cards

Hello Everyone,

Lauren and Teddy up on the blog for you today with some cards that we hope you will enjoy looking at :)  You might even get some inspiration from them!!! We hope so.

 

So simple but then so pretty, I have used a Memory Box Stencil - Texture Mesh for the background with texture paste and then sprayed it with Ranger Perfect Pearl Spray Cappuccino, added some sprayed lace and rose ribbon. 

 

The A2Z Scraplets is Vine Flourish Shape 1.  I have coloured it with Tombow Brush Pens and then used Stamp-It Dye Based Embossing Powder - Transcendence to make it shimmer and shine.

 



 

The fabulous flat black words for cards in GET WELL are so new and so exciting, they are not yet on the website, so watch out for them in the next release.  All ready to go and need no work if in a hurry.

Oh and here is another one for you, Teddy loves this one best.

 

 

 

 

We have used some Kaisercraft Paper for out background and put some soft mesh ribbon over it to add some sparkle to our background.  then the Kaisercraft Doily with another lacey doily in the centre.  Along the bottom is lace and the ribbon is ruffled (youtube tutorial for ruffled ribbon), a gorgeous bow and flowers of course (we love our flowers).

 

 

 

Again we have used these fabulous A2Z Scraplets Words for Cards - Get Well. Matte black and ready to go.  We have put it over the lovely white and glittery sugar beads (mix of small seed beads and micro beads.

 

 





We have used my favourite A2Z Scraplet Swirly Corners Medium Set of 2 here, painted with Ranger Distress Paint Victorian Velvet, sprinkled with loads of glitter and topped with Inkssentials Glossy Accents.  Decorated with some mulberry flowers with their wires curled to a spiral and a pearl spray.

Love a Handmade Card

Hello Everybody, 


Yes, yes, yes, Lauren and Teddy on the blog today to bring you our latest creations for your viewing pleasure!!!


So we have three cards today for you, all with A2Z Scraplets on them and other pretty things too.  We do love pretty.

This would be our favourite, it is so pretty, using paper from Kaisercraft small pad and covered with mesh ribbon, we used a painted brickwork chippie from A2Z Scraplets across the middle of the card for wonderful dimension, added lace and some bobble trimming.  Then used a Memory Box Grand Heart and La Rue Heart (double layered and embossed with Stampendous Shabby White Embossing Powder). 

Some foliage with Memory Box Pine Sprigs cut from a coordinating paper and Memory Box Fabulous Phlox for the flowers.

An angled view gives you an idea of the various textures and the great dimension achieved using the A2Z Scraplets under the heart.  Loads of texture with the chipboard, various fibres and trimmings and of course the Stampendous embossing powder.


So here is another one, in blue with so many stars to match the A2Z Scraplets star flourish.

This card looks so much better in real life, so sparkly and pretty with all the added glitter and stars.  Again a Kaisercraft paper for the background, embossed with a Sizzix Embossing folder and with added texture paste using Memory Box Stencil Stars Starry Night with glitter sprinkled over while wet.  Ribbon, bow and stars added to this.

The A2Z Scraplets Chipboard Star Set of 2 Flourish is embossed with Stampendous Embossing Powder Shabby Blue with two layers of powder (one melted and then more embossing fluid added and more powder added and melted.


And I have saved a good one to last, so pretty in purple with silver and glitter galore!!

Oh yes more pretty paper from Kaisercraft, embossed with the stars and swirls embossing folder from Sizzix and added texture paste using Memory Box Stencil Stars Starry Night with glitter sprinkled over while wet.  Lace and ribbon added and those beautiful stars cut from glitter paper.

This time I have made my own mix of embossing powder for the A2Z Chipboard Star Set of 2 Flourish using Adirondak Eggplant and Wild Plum with silver glitter and some silver and white embossing powders added.  All these powders were just regular size EP and I did not mix them very well, so the finished product has a variant in colour finish.

Hope you like what we have for you today, see you soon!!!

Lauren and Teddy
