Enjoy card - Gentleman's Emporium collection

Hi there and welcome back ...It' Happy Friday and let's go out with a bang !!
It's been a busy week but looking forwards to the weekend - and school holidays - hooray !!!!

Today, I have an different card created with the new release paper collection from Couture Creations Gentleman's Emporium

These papers are very masculine themed ones, but I created my card with a delicate twist - adding some flowers from my endless stash. Adding some foiled butterflies and I am happy with the result. What do you think??

Thinking out side the normality - whatever normal is !! LOL
Creating with what normally is masculine colours - I created my card with a touch of my feminine side ! Hope you like it , have a great weekend !!

ENJOY card




Foiling the CO726854 PocketWatch Cut, Foil and Emboss die with Vintage gold foil onto some of the Gentleman's Emporium papers. Foiling the sentiment word "Enjoy every Moment" from the Hot foil sentiment collection CO726847.

Also foiling the butterflies from the 
Modern Essential Cut, Foil & Emboss die CO726467





I think the tones of the brown and blues really go well with each other.

Butterflies & Fairies in the Garden - Kaisercraft

Hi there everyone 
Thanks so much for stopping by here, today.
I am very excited about this month's latest release products from Kaisercraft.

This months' paper collection has
3 great new release paper yummies.
Today I have created with 
"Ma Cherie" 
a very shabby and rustic collection of papers.
&
"Fairy Dust" 
these are great papers for any little fairy Birthdays celebration.

So let's start with a stroll in the Garden, with my first project, I created with the "Ma Cherie" Paper collection, I created a Butterfly Pop-Up box card.
This is my take on it, using the Stamp set and Die set from Kaisercraft to create the fluttering butterflies. Decorating the box also with Ma Cherie collectables.


 "BUTTERFLIES in my GARDEN" Pop up box card.





The box folds completely flat, ready to pop inside a large envelope and send to someone special.



Now, these Butterflies are so easy to create with the following Kaiser products and some watercolour pencils and brush.



Step-by-step To create your very own - Butterfly Pop-up Box card.

Kraft cardstock cut to A4 size of paper 21cm x 29.7cm
Ma Cherie Collectables CT841
Ma Cherie  P1958 Fancy paper
Ma Cherie - Clear stamp CS241

Ma Cherie PP982 Paper Pad

Other materials:

Here is another card that I have created, 
an Easel card, with the same butterflies attached on some clear acetate pieces.

"Dreams come true" card 


They look like they are flying away in a flutter. :)




Fairy Dust 
is another great paper collection for any little Fairy who will be celebrating a special occasion. This paper collection, is just fabulous for creating Birthday invitations, Birthday cards and then once you have some photos of your special day, create a wonderful layout or mini album.
Take a stroll now in my Fairy little Garden…...


I created a card with a different twist,
it's more like a mini Card Booklet. I have been making these for many years. Firstly, they can be given as a card with a special pocket for a gift voucher, 
It makes a great little album for placing some photos on the back or inside, a little fairy booklet to treasure.


"Happy Birthday Little Fairy" Card Booklet.


Front Page
Using the Paper P1969 Fairy Wishes and P1968 Star Dust paper sheets,
you can cut the panels out and they fit perfectly in my little booklet.

Inside Page 2  & 3
I decorated this page with some Fairy Dust collectables and
Paper flowers and blooms.
 I created a little pocket and made some
tags with the of the papers and collectables from this collection.




Here is a closer look at the tags inside the pocket page 3 - You can write little messages of love or wishes on the back of these tags or adhere photos on them later.



Page 4 - Here I added the Fairy Dust Collectables butterflies to the page.
and words from the Fairy Dust sticker sheet.



Page 5 - Here I added the Kaiser Flat paper flowers, paper blooms and punched leaves. The last page, the back I left it plain, so there is an opportunity to add some photos on the back.



Products used for the Fairy Dust - Mini Card/Album




After your fairy party I am sure that you will have some very special photos for creating a layout. Using the paper P1965 Enchanted, I did some fussy cutting of the flowers from the created a unique stamping background, with the CS242 Clear stamp set from the Fairy Dust collection.

"Dream & Believe" layout.



After stamping some of the images on my very plain white background, I then coloured some of the flowers and butterflies with watercolour pencils, gently blending them in with some clean water and brush. I love to create unique backgrounds and using clear stamps and some inks is a great way to achieve this.
Then, I gently inked the edges and splattered some colour ink sprays.

I arranged all my cut out flowers around the base of my layout and 
added my matted photos and also some little fairies from the Collectables pack.

Happy Kaiser-Crafting everyone :) Cheers Adriana XX

Hello there everyone, thanks for stopping by
is it my turn again today showcasing a project that I have created for
Using the new release dies collection
AMARYLLIS and KALINI

I created a very different and special project
 "Flutter-by Butterfly"….
using the Vintage Rose paper collection
and some Core'dinations card stock paper.

and circle die cut 
Cut 1 - C0724255 KALINI - picket fence die-
also trim it a little on the edges and end. Glue them all on the page.



Cut 7 of the C0724112 Everyday Essentials - Autumn leaf die
and ink the edges with ink pad and glued them down with
C0723817 3D Glue Spots, underneath each leaf, (these are so fabulous)



Cut several flowers blossoms with the C0724251 KALINI Falling Blosssoms die

and layered them on top of each other and
created a cluster of them for the body of my butterfly.




Cut 2 of the 
C0724260 KALINI collection- Daffodil Vines die
for the antennae of the butterfly



Decorate the inside of the flowers and
all around the butterfly with C0721995 Pink Flamingo Gemstones
