Kraft + DT - So What!!

Have you seen the awesome challenge at KRAFT + this month??

 

Check this out...

 

 

This month we want you to be inspired by the artist P!nk

*PLEASE NOTE*
The graphic below is NOT the challenge.
The COLOUR pink is NOT the challenge.

The challenge is to be inspired by  P!nk, the artist.

Maybe one of her album covers?
It could be a song title, or lyrics?
Maybe you went to one of her concerts?
It is okay to be inspired by the photo..
BUT there must be something about P!nk on your layout.
Please tell us when you upload your entry what exactly about P!nk inspired you.

 

Criteria : Kraft + P!nk (the artist)We welcome all kinds of craft as entries for our challenges, from traditional layout, cards, digital layouts, art journalling and tags etc. but please remember that it is all about the Kraft!!

Your work MUST be on a KRAFT BACKGROUND (not merely mounted on Kraft) to be eligible. 

 **Please take the time to read the RULES before submitting your entry**

 

Cool!!! I love P!nk so this was an easy challenge for me.

 

Here's what I created...

 

 

My background started like this and I nearly didn't want to add anything else to it.

 

 

I chose these particular lyrics as they just seemed to suit the photo of my darling daughter getting her rock moves on at Taronga Zoo on a recent trip.

 

 

 

Not only was I inspired by the lyrics, but I was also inspired by the challenge image to use lots of washi tape, stamping and mists on my background.

 

I do hope you get a chance to play along with the challenge this month. You can check out all of the inspiration from the design team over HERE on the blog. You will find all of the details on the challenge too.

 

Thanks for stopping by.

 

Cheers

Kaisercraft DT - Provincial Living

 

 

 

Hello papercrafters!!

 

Today I have a layout to share with you featuring the brand new Provincial Collection from KAISERCRAFT.

 

 

 

This is such a lovely range which includes some beautiful florals as well as postmarks, clocks and some rustic look papers.

 

The Design Team was challenged to create a shabby chic layout featuring both the Clear Stamps as well as the Embossing Folder.

 

Clear Stamps

 

Embossing Folder

 

Here's my layout.

 

 

 

I used the Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of self-adhesive cork. I then cut out some of the postmark images to create my own embellishments. I used the clear stamps on my background as well as to make some lovely lacy edges underneath my photo.

 

Kaisercraft materials: P1971 Hydrangea | P1978 Cobblestone | PP984 Paper Pad | CS243 Clear Stamps | EF229 Embossing Folder Postmarks | CT843 Collectables | EM928 Lace Pack Natural | CD187 Kaisercard Pebble | KM102 Kaisermist Antique Gold | IP723 Ink Pad Vintage | IP724 Ink Pad Bark | EM405 Paper Doilies White | DD700 Decorative Die Alphabet Uppercase.

Charms Creations DT - Hello Beautiful

Hello!!

 

Today I am sharing a layout I created for CHARM'S CREATIONS using the stunning November Mood Board at Jot Magazine.

 

 

How gorgeous is this mood board?? I absolutely LOVE the combination of pink and yellow. So fresh and pretty. Thankyou Kim Jeffress for the awesome inspiration!

 

Here's my take on the challenge.

 

 

 

I have used a sweet pink Mini Heavenly Heart which you can find in the shop over HERE.

 

 

I used Kaisermists in Yellow and Pink on my background. I love how these mists react with water. They really give the loveliest watercolour effect.

 

Short and sweet today but make sure you pop back soon for some Kaisercraft shares

 

Thanks so much for stopping.

Kaisercraft DT - A Little Holly Jolly

Hello!!

 

Today I am sharing with you a fun mini album I created for KAISERCRAFT using the Holly Jolly Collection.

 

I love the playfulness of the Holly Jolly range as well as the gorgeous Christmas colours with a little kraft added in for good measure. Because it was such a fun range I decided to document our Elf on The Shelf shenanigans in a mini pocket page album.

 

 

How cute is that green woodgrain paper?? That would have to be my very favourite paper from the collection. I may have a thing for woodgrain. :-)

 

 

 

On this page I created a little card for the top left pocket by embossing a piece of kraft cardstock with the Framed Tree Embossing Folder. To accentuate the design, I lightly rubbed the Lagoon Ink Pad over the top to give it some soft colour.

 

Here’s a closer look.

 

 

 

I had an idea to make a shaker pocket for this page. I added a whole lot of sequins from my stash as well as a snowflake die cut from the Collectables pack. I also used the snowflake stamp from the Holly Jolly Clear Stamps to stamp on vellum using embossink ink. I heat set with white embossing powder, fussy cut and added to my pocket. (Note: I used a Fuse Tool to seal my pocket so that everything wouldn’t shake on out of there.)

 

Here’s a closer look.

 

 

 

As you can see, I have only completed the first week of our elves antics. I have many more pages of our cheeky little elves to fill!!
