Beautiful Bouquet Shaker Shadow Box Card

categories: 3D, AddINKtive Design Team, card in a box, Fancy Folds, Flowers

Hi everyone!

April has been SUPER busy, so you may have noticed I took a bit of a break from blogging!

We had Easter, school holidays, a daughter who was in the Grease Arena Spectacular with rehearsals every day, not to mention trying to organise a house to get ready to sell and work! Ughhhhh …..

So I am slowly working my way back into routine …slowly! Lol.

Today I wanted to share with you another one of my creations using Bronwyn Eastley’s fabulous Mermaid Shaker Shadow Box Card Tutorials. I think its fair to say that I really enjoy creating with this design. It makes a great card, with that extra wow, and surprisingly simple to make.

Beautiful Bouquet Shaker Shadow Box Card

This time I used a simple Whisper White Base, and even though you can’t see it in the picture, the front is embossed with our Shimmery White Embossing Paste. The background for this card is from the Painted with Love Designer Series Paper (DSP), which is thicker than our regular DSP making it perfect for a box style project.

Fill your centre with some Gold Glitter Flakes for some extra pizazz, but just a warning – the static with these things is amazing – so you need to position your acetate quickly! Lol.

Beautiful Bouquet was used to create the pretty bunch of flowers for this card.

You may be wondering where you write your message on this kind of card – simply cut a piece to size for the back panel and write away!

If you would like to create your very own Shadow Shaker Box, pop on over to the Addinktive Designs Tutorial Shop HERE. Below are a couple of other creations using the same tutorial, so you can see just how versatile they are! You can swap almost all of the elements for what you have in your own collection.

If you would like to recreate this card, simply click on the items below to go directly to my online store (for residents of Australia only). You had better be quick, as quite a few of the items used are retiring, including our Large Number Framelits – and once they have gone, they are gone for good 🙁

Happy Crafting everyone!

Colourful Seasons Bike Ride Shadow Box

categories: 3D, AddINKtive Design Team, Birthday, Cards, Fancy Folds, Male, Paper Boxes

A big Hello to you all!

I wanted to share with you today a bit of a fun project using Bronwyn Eastley’s Bike Ride Shadow Box Tutorial.

I made this one for an order for a friend who needed a fiftieth birthday card for her brother in law. The brief was – he enjoys bike riding.

Isn’t is lucky that we have the Build a Bike set to make this even easier. My design is based pretty close to Bronwyn’s, but I needed to make it more masculine!

I used some embossing paste directly over the cloud dies on the background and gave the card an Autumn feel using Colourful Seasons Bundle and attaching the leaves to the branch.

I did have to use the retired Little Numbers Dies to make sure a 50 could fit nicely onto the card! And I think this is the first time EVER I have used Always Artichoke! Lol. But it needed just a little green to lift the overall look!

You get a bit more of an idea of the depth with this picture.

Bronwyn’s tutorials are super fun for creating a ‘special’ card. Why not pop over to her tutorial shop HERE to see what you can start creating! They really are versatile!

And don’t forget – you only have until the weekend to stock up on all those FREE Saleabration goodies you are after! Now is the perfect time to stock up on cardstock, Designer Paper, adhesives and the retiring In Colours and reap the rewards with FREE items!

Colour INKspiration 29

categories: 3D, Birthday, Blog Hop, card in a box, Cards, Challenges, Colour Inkspiration

Good evening everyone! Welcome to Colour INKspiration 29.

Every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month the Colour INKspiration Crew get together and create a hop using a selected colour palette to create with. You can join in the fun by creating a project with the colours and popping a picture of it on our Facebook Page HERE by the Monday night before the next challenge.

This weeks colour palette is a beautiful selection chosen by Bronwyn with colours Crumb Cake; Chocolate Chip; Blushing Bride; Garden Green and Very Vanilla. I initially went to go straight to florals for this colour palette as it’s so suited, but I had another project that needed to be done for a customer order, so I decided to combine the two tasks.

My task was to create a card for a 21st for someone who loves baking. I was inspired by how Jackie Aitken created a brilliant BBQ Card a few weeks ago, so I thought I could adapt a basic Card in the Box design to create an oven and get it baking!

I must say, once I worked out how to cut it to achieve the look I wanted, this was quite fun to make! I did use a few different bits and bobs to make this card. The cupcakes were from Lift Me Up Stamps and coordinating dies and utensils and glove from the Apron of Love Bundle. The Basket Weave Embossing Folder made for a great background to represent tiles – I am so glad this Saleabration item will be continuing in the new Annual Catalogue – I Just love it!

And the best bit – it folds flat for posting!

Don’t forget – there is only 2 more weeks of Saleabration left to grab your freebies!

Keep hopping around – the crew has some beautiful projects on display this week. Up next is Narelle:

CTC 168 – Petal Passion with Charming Cafe

categories: 3D, Birthday, Blendabilities, Blog Hop, Cards, Challenges, CTC

Hello again!

It’s Sunday night so that means it’s time for another CASEing the Catty Sunday Blog Hop.

This week the crew will CASE (Copy and Share Everything) from the Petal Passion suite in the Occasions Catalogue on pages 22 – 27.

If you follow my Facebook Page then you would see I have been playing A LOT with the Petal Palette Suite. I absolutely love it! But tonight I thought I would pop a few more pages in and focus on the Charming Cafe Bundle on Page 25.

I know I say it a lot, but this bundle really caught my eye and I had been waiting (not so) patiently to purchase it for my ‘collection’. I am a bit of a sucker for a fancy framelit and these were no exception. What really grabbed my attention was how easily the framelits work together to make a multi layered or dimensional card.

I began by creating a bit of a quirky card CASEing the image above. However, I wanted my Chairs and tables behind the cafe window, so I added an acetate layer to my card. I need the stamp-a-majig to line it up properly in my window – which ended up being quite fiddly as the acetate kept moving when I tried to move the stamp-a-majig. Not for the feint of heart I tell you!

I didn’t mind the overall affect, but I was very impatient with my acetate as I used Momento Ink on it hoping to colour the brickwork, but it took far too long to dry and as you can see – it smudged and didn’t dry at all – so if you wanted to do this you could use the archival ink and colour from the back of the image.

Never mind…you live and learn and at least I had my colour choices right now, so on to my next project…the one I really wanted to create. A diorama card. I have made a few of these over the years and we all know I love a 3D card, but this set really just lent itself to creating one of these so very easily! The framelit that cuts out the seats and table whilst leaving the base intact does all the work for you for this card! I even pinched a couple of birdies from the Flying Home Stamp set! Shhhh. And colouring is sooooo simple with the Stampin Blends to really make your project pop!

Charming Cafe Diorama Card

Now I LOVE how this one turned out! I guess you could say I ended up CASEing myself! Lol!

What do you think?

Unfortunately I cannot find the You Tube video I used a few years ago to create a Diorama card, but I am giving away the tutorial with any order placed with me during March. And don’t forget – March is the LAST month to get any of the FREE Saleabration items with a $90 or $180 purchase! Don’t miss out!

Now it’s time to hop on over to Monique and see what she has created for you all xx

Myths and Magic Shaker Shadow Box Card

categories: 3D, AddINKtive Design Team, Birthday, card in a box, Cards, Kids Cards, Paper Boxes

Hi everyone!

Today I thought I would pop past and share on of my creations with you all!

You see, my niece turned 18 last week – so that requires a bit more of a ‘special’ card in my eyes. I mean, its a pretty special birthday and something to celebrate. Plus, its another good excuse to create a 3D project! Lol.

My niece is a BIG Harry Potter fan, so I knew whatever I created had to be themed around that. Aren’t we lucky that our new Myths and Magic Suite could make sure that happened for me!

I used Bronwyn Eastley’s Magic Mermaid Shaker Shadow Box tutorial again (you can see my first creation HERE) to create the base of this card. However Lou, one of the other AddINKtive Design Team members created the same box with clear acetate, so I guess you can say I CASEd her’s as well! (with permission of course!) You can see her design HERE.

So here it is – my

Myths and Magic Shaker Shadow Box Card!

I have created the back portion of the box using the Myths and Magic Speciality Designer Series Paper. This is just one of a couple of lots of Designer Paper in the new Occasions Catalogue that is thicker than regular Designer Paper, making it fantastic for 3D projects! The centre piece, number 18 and sentiment are all using our Silver Foil – it was just SUPER difficult to photograph with the dark background and glare off the acetate no matter what lighting I tried to use!

The wizard himself has been stamped and coloured using our Stampin’ Blend Alcohol markers, but the little wizard and the castle in the background are fussy cut directly from other pieces of the Designer Paper. I thought the young wizard at least had Gryffindor’s colour scheme! All I really need was a white owl! Lol.

The castle and trees are actually set on the very back panel, so here’s a bit of a close up for you –

It’s a mini Hogwarts!

The lovely ‘Celebrate’ die is a FREE item available during Saleabration. It was cut from our Silver Foil Sheets with a Fresh Fig Sentiment layered underneath help ‘lift’ it off the card.

The shaker middle section just adds a bit of extra bling and fun to the card!

Bronwyn’s tutorials are really very versatile! Once you have the base, you can mix it up to suit your needs! Take a look at her tutorial store and all that is on offer HERE.

I hope you enjoyed my project today!

You can purchase any of the items to create this yourself in my online store, or by clicking on the images below. Remember to take advantage of our FREE items during Saleabration – but only until March 31st! So don’t miss all those lovely FREE goodies on offer!

Seaside Shore Shadow Box Shaker Card

categories: 3D, AddINKtive Design Team, Cards, Fancy Folds, Male

Hi all my crafty, creative friends!

Today I thought I would drop by and share one of my latest fun 3D cards.

My Grandad turned 94 yesterday, and I always like to make them something a bit more special! My Nan really appreciates them! Lol.

So for this card I used a Bronwyn Eastley Tutorial – Mermaid Shaker Shadow Box Card. Bronwyn’s tutorials are really easy to follow, with plenty of step by step instructions, including pictures! You can take a look at here tutorials right HERE.

I adapted Bronwyn’s design and used my Seaside Shore Stamp Set to create my Seaside Shore Shadow Box Shaker Card!

Adding a shaker element to a shadow box was so much fun! I can guarantee that this won’t be the only one of these types of cards I create! In fact – I’m already working on design number 2! Who wouldn’t when you can create so much fun!

The Designer Paper used for this card is from the Myths and Magic Specialty DSP. It’s a thicker card, making it sturdier and perfect to create these type of box cards!

These cards also fit perfectly into a normal C6 envelope! So you can even post them! I added a white panel to the back of my card to write my birthday message!

I hope you like it!

Framed Christmas Tree using Green Sprigs

categories: 3D, 3D; Christmas, Christmas, Off the Page

A big hello you to you!

I thought I would at least sneak in one more Christmas project post before the man in the Big Red Suit arrives!

That way you can either recreate this project in time for Christmas, or get an early start on next years decorating and pick up the Green Sprigs from the Year End Sales before they have all gone!

My project today is CASEd from the cover of our Stampin’ Success Magazine. That’s our quarterly demonstrator magazine, full of loads of ideas and tips for products and getting the most out of being a demonstrator!

The cover has the image of a mini Christmas Tree using our Green Sprigs available in the current Holiday Catalogue (but not for much longer at all! They are only available until January 2nd, 2018).

This was a fun project to make and was really quite quick to put together.

I have used a now retired Christmas Stamp Set called Wonderful You as I wanted a big sentiment with bold font. The Stampin’ Success magazine used Carols of Christmas, but you could use any stamp set really. I also added some of our retired Gold Sequin Trim for a bit of bling. The larger sequins stood out more than our current Mini Sequin Trim (- although some aren’t visible in the picture). And I simply slipped the sequins over one of the pieces in the Green Sprigs, not adhesive involved. I also added a double bow using our Real Red 1/8″ Solid Ribbon. The background sheet is of course a piece of the Merry Music Designer Series Paper, which will also be retiring. The stick – well thats from my front yard! Lol.

You will definitely need your hot glue gun for this project, to secure the sprigs and the stick. You will only need one pack of Green Sprigs to create each tree. I found it easiest to position everything first, then adhere the sprigs, beginning at the base of the tree and work my way up. The last 3 sprigs are overlaid through the middle to hide any gaps.

I’m really pleased with how it turned out! What do you think?

I would love to take this opportunity to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and a safe and prosperous New Year!

Thank you all for continuing to follow my blog and support me! It means so much to be able to share what I love!

If you would like to create this project too – make sure to pop on over to the Year End Sale by clicking the image below :

I’m really looking forward to playing with my new Occasions Catalogue products over the coming weeks and sharing them with you all! You won’t be disappointed in whats on offer! If you don’t have a catalogue, live in Australia but don’t have a regular demonstrator, just pop me a message and I can send one out to you!

Happy Christmas Crafting!

Welcome everyone to Colour INKspiration 24!

Being right in the middle of silly season, I almost forgot to complete a project for this challenge! Boy is it a challenge for you this week!

Such an unusual combination of colours – but don’t they work so well together!

Tranquil Tide; Pool Party; Cherry Cobbler and Blushing Bride

are your colours for this weeks challenge.

I thought I had better get some Christmas momentum happening for this challenge, given that I am sooooo far behind in my Christmas card making this year – like – ridiculously behind! I can see a lot of late nights looming ahead 🙁 I used Bronwyn Eastley’s Coffee Cafe Easel Card Tutorial for my project tonight. I just couldn’t resist! After making a Vase with this design a few weeks ago – I was dying to try out a 3D Christmas Tree Card. So here it is…

I love a good 3D project, and the Tree from the Ready for Christmas Bundle suited this project perfectly. Unfortunately it’s retiring at the end of the year – so you need to get it before it’s gone for good 🙁 The little birds are cut from the Tree Builder Punch. And wasn’t I lucky that our new Stampin Blends have the matching colours to this weeks challenge!

The crew have some brilliant projects using these colours this week. So make sure you hop around to everyone and see what they have for you.

And I know its totally busy, but I do hope you make some time for craft and join in for this challenge. It really is good therapy!

Now its time to hop on over to Monique to see what she has created for you all!

Happy Crafting everyone!

Merry Labels Treat Tubes

categories: 3D, 3D; Christmas, Christmas, Gift Box

Hi everyone!

As the year draws to a close, I thought it would be a great time to highlight some of my favourite items soon to retire from the Holiday catalogue whilst I help you get your Christmas Cheer on!

Today I wanted to show you a super quick and easy little gift you can make using the Merry Labels Bundle and the Treat Tubes!

I’m calling them my Merry Labels Treat Tubes! Because well….why not! Lol

These Treat Tubes had to be one of my all time favourites in the Holiday Catalogue. You can use them for so many things from Halloween to thank you’s to Christmas.

These are super easy to make because they fit M&M ‘s perfectly inside the tube. And how easy is it to create a Christmas feel once you add some festive colours!

I teamed with a little label from the Merry Little Labels Bundle and simply tied them on using the Quilted Christmas 1/4″ Ribbon.

Nothing hard about that – I promise. How great would these be for your kids friends for a Christmas Treat at school break up, or as place settings on your Christmas table or as a table centrepiece. You could even add a loop at with the Metallic Threads and hang them from your Christmas Tree! That would look sooooooo good!

I hope you enjoyed this quick and easy project!

Remember, all of these items are retiring and are part of the Year End Sales event, so they won’t be around for long!

Ready for Christmas Four Fold Card

categories: 3D, 3D; Christmas, Blendabilities, Cards, Christmas, Fancy Folds

Hi everyone!

I do hope you have all been able to squeeze in some crafty time during the madness that is December! Life gets so hectic at this time of the year! It’s also so hard to believe we have reached the end of another year! Is it just that they go faster as you get older?

I wanted to pop past today to share with you all a project that we created at my recent Our Inky Oasis Team Christmas Breakup! They are always a bit of fun for everyone and we always complete a project.

This year we created a Four Fold Panel Card. The original idea I saw was by Lyssa Zwalonek and you can see her post HERE.

I turned mine into a Christmas theme by using the At Home with You Bundle and the Ready for Christmas Bundle which will be retiring at the end of the current Holiday Catalogue. Bundles are always a bonus as you get a 10% discount when purchasing them! Who doesn’t love that!

Here is the card we created… my Ready for Christmas Four Panel Fold Card.

This is the very front of the card using the At Home with you Bundle. The rest of the card is created using the Ready for Christmas Bundle.

Here is the card fully opened with all it’s panels! Here is a couple of close ups pics for you too 🙂

It’s not a card for the faint hearted, but it is so very effective! I love how it turned out! It’s like being in someone’s house Ready for Christmas!

I altered my card inserts slightly as I wanted all the bases to line up nicely and as a Merry Christmas Gift to you all, I am including the tutorial for this project right here for you to download, so you can create your own special Christmas Scene. Just click on the link below 🙂

Don’t forget – the Ready for Christmas Bundle is retiring at the end of the month and is included in the current Year End Sales Event!
