You are Amazing & Awesome !!!

Hello everyone,
Today, I am excited to be back at "Imaginarium Designs blog as a Guest Artist for this month, I will be visiting here every 2 months - using chipboards from
Imaginarium Designs on my projects. Chipboards are great embellishments to enhance any projects - whether they are layouts or cards.

Today, I am sharing a couple of my projects that I have created with some
Imaginarium Designs chipboards to enhance my projects.

Here is my first layout - a girly one….

"YOU ARE AMAZING" layout

In this layout I have used the following Imaginarium Designs
IDDD0003 Denise's flourish 1
IDP0202 You are amazing word
IDC0004 Ewardian relief centre only
IDDD0071 Denises Art Deco embellishment

I painted all the chipboards with black gesso and highlighted some of the edges with gold paint. Very easy to do.

IDP0202 You are amazing word

My second layout is a one for a boy or man ….

"Handsome & Awesome" layout

Again, I painted all the chipboards with black gesso and on some of them I highlighted with dabbed some white paint and a script stamp. Randomly touching some of the chipboards with this script stamp pad.

I also highlighted around the edges of the chipboards with a white uniball pen.

Here are the chipboards that I used to create this layout

IDS0010 Hot balloons
IDS0030 Steampunk clock
ISS0082 Kate Doily
IDW0088 Awesome, mischief words
IDDL0020 Loolabelle's Chevron
IDDL0023 Loolabelle's Love Arrows

and I also created a
Layered chipboard card

Using all the different sizes of ornate oval frames and corner borders.
I applied some -
Chunky mossed bronze colour embossing powder, heated with a heat gun, and inked the tiny leaves with green ink pad.
These frames look so amazing layering them on top of each other.
and how great is the effect with the embossing powder on the chipboards.

Using the Imaginairum Design chipboards

IDFF005 Mirrored Bracket Frame large

IDFR0009 Oval frame with bracket

IDT0002 Tiny Oval frame mini

IDT0029 Tiny Leaves & circles

IDC0004 S Swirls corners -

these make awesome corners for cards and layouts

and for my last project I added a

Long Swirly Flourish chipboard

IDFL0005 cut in half

for handles of my paper tea cups

well, that's all from me this month, I will be back in April with some more
projects to share with you all…

Thanks for looking and until next time

Enchanted Tea Party Cards - Couture Creations

Hi everyone, today, I have created two cards with the new release papers designed by Denise Boddey called

"Enchanted Tea Party"

These papers are so delightful and are so versatile to use for any occasion.
Birthdays, invitations and special projects for high tea or for anything really.

Here are my two cards that I have created.

I used the 12x12 "Enchanted Tea Party" paper pad teamed up with the die cut
"Invitation set" C0725045

The die cut is such a super cute little teapot :)

"Best Wishes" card

I created this card with the beautiful papers from the "Enchanted Tea Party" 12x12 paper pad for the base, layering on top with foam tape and white card stock in between.

It is an easel card. I found this cute little spoon to add to the card.

Adding some paper doily underneath the teapot,

I slightly inked the edges of the teapot with some ink pad, to give it a 3D effect and then fuzzy cut some of the red pansy flowers to add to the centre of the teapot.

and here is a close up of my other card
"There is always time for TEA" card.

I do love the colour combination of blue and green with touches of
lavender and white.

Using the "Oohlala" collection of
layered dies Nested Labels set ULT157557 , I placed underneath the teapot. I also glued on the top of the teapot

a single bulk white flower with Jewelled centre C0724292
