HAPPY page {kaisercraft & merly impressions}

hello crafty friends!

it is my turn over at MERLY IMPRESSIONS' blog today and i would like to share my latest creations with you. this month i have the pleasure of working with KAISERCRAFT's TROPICAL PUNCH and i decided to create a layout without pictures. instead i choose to use the adorable 3 x 4" PINEAPPLE CRUSH captured moments cards pack -

"HAPPY PAGE"

to create my background i layered the REFRESHING pattern paper on top of the BUBBLES pattern paper. before adhering them together, i cut 2 cm from each side of the REFRESHING paper to show more of the amazing script design of the BUBBLES paper.  the cute doily edge is from the 12″ STICKER sheet which matches the collection.

the third layer on my layout i created by arranging some of my favourite design cards from the 3 x 4" PINEAPPLE CRUSH captured moments cards pack.

to embellish the PINEAPPLE CRUSH cards i used die cuts from the COLLECTABLES pack and from the TROPICAL PUNCH paper pad.

the flowers, used on this page, are also from KAISERCRAFT – paper blooms HOT PINK and paper blooms SUNSET and the resin blossoms – resin flowers DAHLIA.

i hope you liked my HAPPY colourful page!

come back soon as i will be posting the new collection for NOVEMBER in the beginning of the next month.

hugs 'n smiles,

a fond farewell {CREATIVE EMBELLISHMENTS}

hello crafty friends! 

today is my last post for CREATIVE EMBELLISHMENTS! i’m so grateful for my time as a CE design team member! i really loved working with NICOLLE’s wonderful designs and being able to create side by side with the most amazing and talented fellow designers! 

so, i've decided to create a shabby chic – steam punk for this post in honour of the two of my favourite chippies, designed by CREATIVE EMBELLISHMENTS:

to create my card i used PRIMA marketing EPIPHANY collection and ATC cards.

the gorgeous butterfly comes from CE butterflies set. i altered the chippie with RANGER pink embossing powder first and then i added the onyx decoration using LIQUID PEARLS.

to give the steam punk effect i used various sizes gear wheels. i used CREATIVE EMBELLISHMENTS’ gears 11/2″ and gears 1″ sets. i altered the chippies with a brown embossing powder.

i hope you enjoyed today's post!

make sure to visit CREATIVE EMBELLISHMENTS' blog regularly since the new design team will make their debut very soon!

have a crafty week!

hugs 'n smiles,

and WELCOME to the HEARTFELT CREATIONS alumni designers OCTOBER blog hop!

with the holiday season approaching fast, there is nothing better to create than CHRISTMAS cards, of course:

for the base of my card i used a vintage CHRISTMAS collection from MAKING MEMORIES. i altered the front part using HCPC3473 tattered background precut set with brown ink.
