Summer Journey - Layout created for Kaisercraft for CHA 2017

This is one of my layouts created for CHA - spring 2017 with the High Tea collection. 


The layout has been built up in layers with paper, fussy cut roses and corrugated cardstock.

______________________


INSTRUCTIONS:
Photo: 11cm x 9cm (4 5/16” x 3 9/16”)

Start with the background paper BISCUIT. Tear of the corrugated cardboard pattern on the pater at the bottom part of the page. Also, cut out the small biscuits from the background paper. Add a piece of corrugated cardboard at the back, so the corrugated paper will show where the background paper has been removed. This is to create dimensions.  Add the teacups from the HIGH TEA collectables beside the teacups on the background paper. Add the cut out biscuits with 3D tape for dimension. 

Tear of a large piece corrugated cardboard, 22cm x 17cm (8 11/16” x 6 11/16”) shaped as a long half circle) and add it to the right hand side of the background paper. Add layers of papers from the HIGH TEA paper pad in different sizes on the right side. Add dimensions by using cardboard or 3D tape between the layers. Add a piece of 12cm x 10cm paper from the HIGH TEA small paper pad behind the photo. The photo should be centred onto this paper. Add the photo and the paper to your page.

Fussy cut all the roses from one of the rose pages in the HIGH TEA paper pad. Add the flowers in between the layers of papers on the right hand side of the page. Add the mini paper blooms, in between the layers. Use dies to create the text for the page. The text has been added in two layers, the background layer dark pink and front layer light pink. 

Cover the photo to protect it. Use the Kaisermist, take the mist top away from the bottle, and use it to sprinkle white mist over the page. Add pearls. Paint gesso as an effect onto parts of the corrugated paper on the page.

Hand made soaps

Hobbykunst has got some fantastic new products for creating soap. You can find soap base in 200 and 600gsoap pigmentsSoap molds og different soap smells. These soaps are fantastic gifts, if you wrap them nicely. They are also a good idea for craft fairs.



The wrapping, has been created with a cellophane bag. The bag has been cut open at the bottom and back and taped at the back to make it fit the two saps. It has also been taped at the vottom to close it. Around the soaps, I have used corrugated cardboard around the large soap, a lace and a ribbon.


The top has been created using Kaisercraft's Keepers Finders kolleksjon and an edge die from Rayher.

Mixed media canvas

Art is often expensive to do. The paint, glue, pencils, mists, paints and embellishments, are often a huge cost. A few weeks ago, I got a craft magazine with some free emellishment pack. This had a few thin wooden pieces. I decided to a few mixed media pieces, out of the free wooden pieces. I then decided to only use left overs, from my craft room, to see what I could create without using a lof of money. Note: You do need good quality glue, paint, mists and paintbrushes. Do not save money on this.


I added string around the wooden piece. Then I glued on beads, metal and flowers. Then, the wooden piece was spray painted black.


Then, I added Kaisermists in blue colours. After this had dried, I dry brushed with Finnabairs Art Alchemy acrylic paints - Sparks, Magical Pond and Metallique Emerald Green. I also added sprays of 13 arts golden mist.

Start with the background paper SHIBORI. Make sure the stripes go sideways. Work on the top middle of the page. Stamp with the Background script and texture chevron stamp on the top half of the page. The stamping should just about be shown under the overlaying papers. 

Cut out a strip of 30cm x 12cm ( 12” x 4 ¾”) from the STORM paper. Add this to the top, middle of the page, sideways – from edge to edge of the paper. Glue with 3D tape or use cardboard in between the layers to create depth. Add the white Chevrons, using the Designer template and gesso.

Add boarders from the INDIGO SKIES paper pad to the bottom of the photo. Take a clock out of the INDIGO SKIES collectables. Cut it in two and add the two parts under the STORM paper.

Creating shaped card with layers of dies

Have you ever looked at those shaped cards, and thought - I wish I had the right dies to create them? You can be creative with the dies you have got, and create shaped cards, just by layering the diecuts from dies you already have.

This card has been created with layers, upon layers with diecuts with the Fancy Rectangles and layers dies. In between the layers, I have used lace, tags created with the same die set and a die cut of a clock, created with the Timeless Pocket watch die.

The white cardtock at the front, has also got some pattern, created with the Picnic Quilt Embossing Folders set. 
The stamp is the sweet Handpicked for Hedgy.

Adventure is out there

We are showing masculine layouts in Kaisercraft's blog today. 

A few years ago, I went to New York. I had to take one of the classic photos of the taxies on Broadway. This is one of my favourite photos.

The background has got fine mist with black and orange Kaisermist. Then, I have layered it with strips of paper and tape. I have also used orange gears, crated with Kaisercraft dies.

Summer layout in layers

Alexandra Renke has got a super sweet new paper collection otu in the shops. I have tested it out on a layout, created in dimentional layers. 


The pattern on the paper is plants, flowers, mushrooms and different nature creatures - painted in watercolours. Projects with these papers could be delicate and super sweet.  


In this layout, the mushroom paper, has been used as a background. The grss, moss, leaves and flowers . has been fussy cut from the papers, and added in layers with 3D foam tape. 


The girl, has been fussy cut and glued on with 3D foam tape, to fit into the landscape. The word "summer fun" has been created with dies from Kaisercraft (DD748 Decorative Die Summer Words).





Some sewing thread, has been used under the layers of grass, to create effect.

Altered birdhouse with Kaisercraft's High tea collection

 Today, I am showing a spring project with the High Tea collection in Kaisercraft's blog. This is an altered wooden house and a candle stick, I had stored for some time. I have used the blue and white papers from the collection, together with collectables and wooden embellishments.



The bird house, has been covered with paper, and then decorated.



I used a stencil with gesso, to create some texture on the roof. Then I added strips of paper and collectables.


At the front of the house, I have added parts of a wooden embellishment, and layered it with a lace circle from the collectables. The candle stick has got a slight colour wash with light blue chalk paint.




Part of the paper has a "ripped wallpaper effect". I enhanced this effect, with pieces of torn paper.

Mixed media Easter egg

Easter is soon going to be here. This year, I have only decorated a few Easter eggs. This is one with my favourite colours, white and blue.


The Easter egg has been created with a simple cardboard Easter egg.  Flowers and embellishments has been added, and then it has been spray painted white.


The flowers has then been spray painted blue and dry painted with white and blue. The mists are from 13 arts and Kaisercraft. Paint from Finnabair's collections.


The little text "blessing" is a sticker from Kaisercraft.


Wishing you a happy Easter
