Christmas card - Hot foiling pen - Couture Creations

Hello everyone today I have created another Merry Christmas Card using the Hot Foiling Pen to created a foiled unique background with Heat Activated foils and Stencils.

Including 3 techniques 1. Hot foiling pen with stencils to create a unique background. 2. creating a foiled word sentiment with die cut sentiments and layering them on top of each other with glue and then using the GoPress and Foil machine to add a layer of fabulous Red Hologram foil. 3. Adhering Double side tape (DieCut N Bond) onto cardstock and layering a sheet of foil over the top to create a wonderful Hologram foiled card stock background. I created two cards using these techniques - Thanks for watching :)

Sydney Road Trip - Sunburnt Country Collection

Hello there everyone and welcome back,

Today I am sharing another page layout showcasing some of the new release from Couture Creations, the

 SUNBURNT COUNTRY COLLECTION 

This collection has 12 x 12 papers, small paper pads, dies, stamps and decoupage sheets and coaster-board.


I love travelling around the world, visiting so many beautiful places but I also think we have some amazing places here in Australia. A few years ago we were able to go to Sydney in January and staying there on Australia Day January 26th.  The day was amazing as the Sydney Harbour was in party mood.  This picture was taken over the other side of Opera House and
a few airforce planes were flying over to make the celebrations of Australia Day.

The layout is created with some of papers and a few mini dies and added some coaster boards from this collection - again I am trying so hard not to make these pages lumpy and bumpy as this page will go into an album.
The technique I have featured here is using leftover die cuts as a stencil.
Be sure to go the end of this blog post to see my short video on this technique.

Using the reverse side of paper CO727289 from the Sunburnt Country Collection
I love all the Aussie language script on this paper eg G'day, Strewth, Howzat!!
Together with a script of reverse side of CO727284 paper

Distressed each side of the papers 
and adding some ink colour with Card Deco CDEIPU028 Brown Dye ink 

The technique featured in my video is of the Eucalyptus Leaves scattered around the framed photo, this fabulous technique using the leftovers from the die cutting of the mini die CO727221 Eucalyptus, with Card Deco Essential Olive Green Pigment Ink CDEIPL018.








I then fuzzy cut the bird from the 6.5" x 6.5" paper pad and added some more die cutting elements from the collection
CO727227 Acacia Mini Branch Die
CO727221 Eucalyptus Mini Die
CO727233 Fenced in Mini Die




I then stamped and heat embossed the mini stamp
CO727201 Warratah Mini stamp - coloured it in with watercolour pencils
and added to the page 




ROAD TRIP Mini die CO727210

Then adding the final touch on the page
Coasterboard CO727241 Wonders Coaster Board set of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House - just perfect for this page.
The word "New South Wales" from the cities sentiments collection of coaster board CO727271, these were slightly inked on the sides with brown ink colour.

Victor Harbour layout - Sunburnt Country Collection

Hello there everyone and welcome back to my blog,

Today I am sharing another page layout showcasing some of the new release from Couture Creations, the collection is called 

 SUNBURNT COUNTRY COLLECTION 

This collection has 12 x 12 papers, small paper pads, dies, stamps and decoupage sheets and coaster-board.

Here is my layout - 
I love travelling around the world, visiting so many beautiful places but I also think we have some amazing places here in Australia.
Today I created another page showcasing one of my favourite places that I live -
South Australia - this is a seaside town - about an hour out of Adelaide this place is called "Victor Harbour" The harbour has a rocky island consisting of granite rock, When we go there we always walk around the island - looking out for whales (in winter time) and small fairy penguins in summer time.

To create this layout , I mainly created with the papers and a few mini dies and added some chipboards from Couture Creations - for a more sea side look to my layout - I am trying so hard not to make these pages lumpy and bumpy as
this page is going to go in an album.

Moment in time - layout - Gentleman's Emporium collection

Hi there and welcome back, Adriana here today with another layout using the new release paper collection from Couture Creations Gentleman's Emporium, 

the papers are designed by Denise Boddey.

Here is a sneaky peaky ....




This time instead of foiling the Gentleman's Emporium CO726854 PocketWatch Cut , Foil and Emboss die, I actually inked the whole die and ran it through my die cutting machine. If you have a die cutting machine you can use these Cut and Emboss dies wiht inks, how cool is that. They will cut and emboss all at the same time.
I created several of these and some I cut in half, tucking them under the photograph. I have created a video at the end of this blog post on how to create this cut out pocket watches... check it ..




Here is my layout - the photograph was taken in Germany
Just outside the village town square. 




But firstly I started with the
Gentleman's Emporium 12 x 12 paper CO726825 and stamped randomly around the page and around the edges with the Gentleman's Emporium Ornate mini stamp CO726840, using a brown ink colour pad.




Then I cut out most of the elements tags from the 
Gentleman's Emporium 12 x 12 paper. CO72682.
Then I inked around the edges and placed them behind my matted photograph and also side the photograph.






I embossed the Gentleman's Emporium Filigree Corner chipboard CO726866 with Couture Creations Chunky Cooper embossing powder. Love the distressed look of this, I added this to the top and bottom of my layout.





Adding some foliage, string and flower cluster for additional texture.

Thanks for looking , I hope you have been inspired by this wonderful collection.
