Happy Birthday card - Sunburnt Country

Hello everyone !! Here is another card I have created with the new release

"SUNBURNT COUNTRY"  From Couture Creations.

The collection has 12 x 12  and 6.5 x6.5 papers, dies, cut foil and emboss dies, mini stamps and coaster boards and also some wonderful 3D Decoupage sheets these all go really well with the whole collection. There are two embossing folders in the collection and today I am playing with one of them...
GUMNUTS EMBOSSING FOLDER CO727269

For my card today, I have embellished it with some of the dies and cut out some of the images from the smaller paper pad - I wanted to show you all how fabulous they are and with a touch of colour over the entire embossing folder - it just adds a bit of colour and depth. 

This collection is quite popular at the moment - I think we all love a bit of Australiana ....HEY !!!!!   :)

Mini Die Kookaburra CO727222
Eucalyptus branch mini die CO727221

Happy Birthday sentiment mini die 

The gorgeous border flourish Cut foil and emboss die CO727292

Again I didn't foil the die - I just applied some pigment ink and placed it into my die cutting machine.. presto super quick and easy.

World Card Making Day 2017 !!

Hi everyone, today is WORLD CARD MAKING DAY and I am sharing a few cards that I have created with some of the new release products from 

Artdeco Creations - Couture Creations - Ultimate Crafts -

"It's Beginning to look like Christmas".  

This collection has some amazing dies and hot foil stamps

and also there are three large fabulous stamp sets - perfect for stamping and also using them with embossing powders!! That's how I created all the backgrounds of my projects today!!

All the products that I have used to create these cards are listed at the end 

of each card that I have created.

Today I wanted to showcase one of the large stamp from the Ultimate Crafts
"It's beginning to look like Christmas" collection called the

 "Fractal Snowflakes" ULT158305.

I have created my cards with this is quite a large stamp - 5"x7" which is perfect for so many different projects, and because it is 5'X7' it doesn't mean that your project has to be that size - you could use a little section of the stamp design for your project.

ULT158305 Fractal Snowflakes.

Using an embossing ink pad or Versamark ink pad and some embossing powders you can create some wonderful projects. I used the
Couture Creations Embossing Powders "Chunky White" CO724967
and the
Couture Creations Embossing Powder "Kettle Copper Bronze"Co724967 
I stamped my piece of white card stock 4"x6" with the stamp and I then sprinkled the powders and heated it with my heat gun, to set the powders.

Adding some blue oxide hue of colour to the background - on both my cards

for the background colour!

Matting the snowflake panels on white card stock and Bronze Mirror Board

 and then

cutting two of the 

Craft Concepts Label die "Grace" CR381113  with white card stock.

(ask for it from your local paper craft store to get it in for you, this is note. new release die but still available from Artdeco Creations, so perfect to use with the Go Press, Foil & Machine by Couture Creations,)

Craft Concepts- Label Die "GRACE" CR381113

Using the "It's beginning to look like Christmas "Season's Greetings" hot foil stamp from the same collection and together with the awesome  

"Go Press and Foil" machine -  I foiled the words "Season's Greetings" 

on the die cut labels.

ULT158335 Season's Greetings hotfoil stamp

Decorating my cards with the  It's Beginning to look like Christmas - ULT158320 Snowflakes dies.

Adding some gemstones and of course some bling !!

and for my last creations for today I created with 2 different technique cards with the latest embossing folders team up really well with BOHO DREAMS papers. Feather EM245 embossing folder.

"Best Wishes" card by Adriana Bolzon
Using Kaisermists I sprayed the outer part of the card, after I embossed the card stock with the feather embossing folder, I slightly used the ink pads
IP724723 Vintage, and also IP727 Lagoon, these colours go really well together.

"Dream" card by Adriana Bolzon

This card is created with the papers from the small Boho Dreams - paper pad PP999 and adding some Kaisermist ink colour to the feathers, with a paint brush. Once I had embossed my card stock with the embossing folder,  I cut out the embossed feather and placed it on some foam tape and black card stock.

The word "dream" was cut out from Glitter Cardstock and die cuts words,
I then Added a string ribbon and some flowers, for extra decoration.

So, I hope I have inspired you to look at these new June Kaisercrafat paper collections, which are all available now at your local scrapbooking store, they are both worth checking out this month.

Until next time
Cheers Adriana XX
