Trimcraft Back to Basics Berry Blush

                                             Hi all
I have some cards to share which i made using the new Back to Basics Berry Blush Collection.

I wanted to try creating a card with lots of layers.

Heart shaped cards give off a vintage feel and work well with the floral papers.

Another card i made with lots of different elements including a ribbon rosette and flourishes.

/This one is a rocker card made by cutting out a 6x6 card blank with a large circle die.

Trimcraft Back to Basics Blue Skies Cards and Layout

Hi all 

I am back with some makes using the new Blue Skies Collection from Dovecraft Back to Basics.

Here is a simple layout where i used stamps across the page and various bits of paper from the 8x8 and 6x6 Blue Skies Paper Pad.

I have a banner card. I used the Fiskars Shape Cutter templates to create to tags and layered them up with flags and buttons.

I used the chipboard frames for the focus of the card and added a few layers which i cut out with dies.

Trimcraft Back to Basics Goody Bags

                                                     Hi all

I am back to share a few cards i made up using the new Back to Basics Goody Bags. The Bags contain everything needed to make up cards or small layouts (watch this space).

I used the Teal and Neutral goody bags for this card and alternated between teal and cream.

This is the Monochrome collection which is one of my favorites. The paper flowers and toppers are included with the kits.

I used the Fiskars interchangeable boarders to create the lace effect.

This one is all Teal and i made thei quick card using the flowers and gems that came with the kit.

Into the wilderness with Oak House Studio

Hi all iam just sharing my layout i made for the Oak House Studio blog. I have a full product list and step by step guide over on their blog right here. http://oakhousestudio.blogspot.co.uk/

                             I have used the Back to Basics true blue and Bohemian paper pack for this layout.

I have been playing around with silicon molds and they work really well with plaster. I love them as i can paint and distress the plain shapes.

I also like making my titles out of the craft foam as they are a lovely texture. Or maybe i am a bit strange?

An 8x8 layout with Happy Scatter

I have an 8x8 layout for you today, been very crafty today and got my Happy Scatter We Are Golden embellishment pack and triangle stencil out. Check out the blog for more project ideas http://jennifergracecreates.com/tag/happy-scatter/

 This is Muggsie our newest member of the family. He is very fussy and bossy as well.

The embellishment packs come with lots of little bits which are great for scattering around your pages and cards. Here i used the DecoArt misters to add the paint splats and added the bits and bods around it.

 To get the background i draw around the stencil with a fine black pen and then used the Artiste Water color pens to color them in. by adding the ink to an acrylic block first you can use a water pen to lift the ink and use it as a paint.

here is a close up of the layers, all i did was cut-out two rough squares and layer them over each other at an angle before sticking the photo and frame down.

Thanks for looking and you can buy Happy Scatter products from here www.etsy.com/uk/shop/HappyScatter#

Trimcraft Christmas 2014

brrrrrr i think someone has turned off the heating, summer has gone and now we are heading towards winter. but don't worry we still have time to make cards before Christmas comes. As promised i am going to introduce the Trimcraft Christmas ranges.

I will start with my favorite range first. This is the scrumptious Vintage Noel pad by First Edition. This pad is full of lovely Victorian style prints and images. I combined it with lace to add to this vintage style.

I used boarder punches to add texture to my page. My favourite brands are the Xcut and Fiskars ones because the punch through card so easy and leave a clean detailed pattern. 

I really love the paper flowers that Trimcraft have released the texture is perfect inking. You could even add a little glitter to the petals.

This is the 12 Days Of Christmas range and it has a huge assortment of embellishments. I love this range because it has a traditional Christmas color scheme.

i made this card using the new metallic card blanks which have a  pearlesent finish and come in both gold and silver.

Trimcraft have just brought out their own range of Dies and embossing folders. Below i used the Me to You one which has a leaf pattern and the snowflake one from the Krafty Christmas range.

I will have a few more projects available on my Timcraft gallery .http://www.trimcraft.co.uk/users/katiel
