Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Sarah Berry

Hello everyone and welcome to another Crazy Crafters Blog Hop.
Todays special guest is Sarah Berry  of Stamp With Sarah.

I have admired Sarah and her work almost  from the time I first became a demo.
I thoroughly enjoyed taking a tour once again through her blog as it is something I haven't done for a couple of months now.

I have chosen to focus on colour today as my inspiration as all of Sarah's works are so colourful and happy. As I am from the country I have also chosen to use the Country Lane suite.

Here are my chosen colours

Crushed Curry

Blackberry Bliss

Granny Apple Green

Mint Macaron

Here is my project.

#KOCreationsCards #Countrylane #CountryHome #CardMaking #Colouring #ShimmerPaints #TinTileTIEF #2018HolidayCatalogue #BirthdayCards #FloralCards #AlcoholMarkers

This is a suite I have totally fallen in love with. The colours are just so earthy and rich.

The chicken wire (background accent) comes silver, but using the shimmer paints and or inks you can make them any colour you like!. I have grunged mine up by rubbing black stazon ink over the top.

The Tin Tile Embossing TIEF (the folder embossed Blackberry Bliss card stock) looks totally amazing no-matter which way you use it! Use it as a whole background, cut it up, make it into strips, paint it, ink it....anything you do to it only enhances the gorgeous design that is embossed into the card stock. For my project, I punched out a square using the Darling Label punch, then cut that in half. I rubbed some black stazon ink gently over the surface of the rectangular strip to give added depth.

The Designer Series Paper for this suite is soooo yummy.
The DSP I have chosen reminds me of 1.Cable knitting or 2.Wheat.
I have distressed the edges of the DSP I chose to use as my background today. I love the textural feel and added dimension that distressing gives to my projects

The stamp set is CHOC FULL of country charm, with it's cream can and jug that you can fill with two bunches of flora.
I chose to use the Cotton floral bunch in the enamel jug.

#KOCreationsCards #Countrylane #CountryHome #CardMaking #Colouring #ShimmerPaints #TinTileTIEF #2018HolidayCatalogue #BirthdayCards #FloralCards #AlcoholMarkers

The enamel jug and flowers was coloured using Alcohol Markers with the jug having had a thin layer of 'Frost White Shimmer Paint' applied over the top.

The Galvanised clip that is holding the stitched circle into position is also part of the Country Lane suite and is very versatile. It has a solid side (showing) as well as a cut out side, this can be used to hang or tie other accents to.

All of the items I used today are available from the newly released Holiday Catalogue on page 42.

Paper Adventures Team Blog Hop - Guest Designer

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog 😊
I have been asked to be a guest designer today for the Paper Adventures Team blog hop, the theme is CAS (Clean and Simple)
This is a design I adore but I tend to struggle with, I never can tell when to stop adding things 😂

I chose to create some cute little baby cards using the Little Twinkle bundle and matching DSP

and here they are


It Was Written In The Stars - Girl set

#KOCreationsCards #BabyCards #LittleTwinkle #StampinUp30 #TwinkleTwinkle #itwaswritteninthestars #CardMaking #HeatEmbossing #DistressingTechnique #PaperAdventures #Constellations

I really wasn't thinking about any particular design idea when I made these. I just adored the paper and the stamp set and wanted to create with them. I keep thinking that these would be perfect for to twin sets boy/boy, girl/girl AND boy/girl.


It Was Written In The Stars -Boy set

#KOCreationsCards #BabyCards #LittleTwinkle #StampinUp30 #TwinkleTwinkle #itwaswritteninthestars #CardMaking #HeatEmbossing #DistressingTechnique #PaperAdventures #Constellations

To create these cute cards I used Whisper white (thick) card stock with layers of Night Of Navy (boy) and Calypso Coral (girl) and 1/3 sheet of Powder Pink and Pool Party constellations DSP.
I distressed the edges of the DSP after they had been cut to size. I cut the DSP to the exact same size as the bottom coloured layer. This was done so that the darker colour only just peeped out from beneath the distressed edges.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post.
Next up on your Paper Adventures tour we have the awesome Kelly Kent of My Papercraft Journey

I have chosen to use a suite today called Frosted Floral. This suite can be found on page 36 of the Holiday Catalogue.

I have paired it with the gorgeous Tin Tile Dynamic TIEF as well as the Corrugated Dynamic TIEF.
Both of which are available in the Holiday Catalogue also.

Here is my project for the #CI41 challenge

Congratulations

#KOCreationsCards #FrostedFloral #FirstFrost #WeddingCards #StampinUp30 #HolidayCatalogue2018 #CardMaking 

I just adore these  Dynamic TIEF's, They really create a WOW background, even when broken up into tiles like I have done today using the Darling Label punch.
And don't get me started on how much I am loving the Shimmer Paints! I will be hear all day waxing lyrical about how great they are lol

For those shimmer paints I have mixed a little shimmer paint with a drop of Blackberry Bliss refill onto a stamping block. Using Cling Wrap I have splotched it onto my background area under where the sprig is situated. Over the blackberry card stock I have wiped "Frosted White" Shimmer Paint using a sponge dauber

Here is a close up shot of all the elements.

Stamping Sunday Design Team blog hop - Making Christmas Bright bundle.

Hello everyone 😊

and

Welcome to the Stamping Sunday Blog Hop (Second Sunday) hosted by Sara Levin.

You are currently here with Kim Oliver - KO Creations Cards - Australia. I have a list of hop participants closer to the end of this post.

Today the Design Team are creating with the new suite 'Making Christmas Bright' bundle.

This is also what I used to create with as part of this months 'Tutorial Bundle' available at the end of the post.

Here are my projects for today's hop.

#kocreationscards #Christmascards #makingchristmasbrightbundle #lightbuilderpunch #diy #stampinup30 #2018holidaycatalogue

For this card I have heat embossed the word BRIGHT onto a die cut circle of Window Sheet. Beneath that I have stamped the small lights image, water coloured and then topped with some fussy cut bulbs that have been stamped, coloured and fussy cut then glued into position.

#kocreationscards #Christmascards #makingchristmasbrightbundle #lightbuilderpunch #diy #stampinup30 #2018holidaycatalogue

For my second card I wanted to use the Light builder punch that is available as part of the bundle and create a glowing light with the cap. But, when I went to use it I realised that I had lost the cap part of the stamp 😭

I must of misplaced it when I was creating for the Tutorial Bundle (found at the end of this post)

I was just extremely lucky that I had an embossed Bulb and Cap left over from my creative play and was able to use that for this project. It changed what I was planning but I still really like what I came up with.

Now to find that itty bitty stamp 😳 I know it's going to be a problem.

#kocreationscards #Christmascards #makingchristmasbrightbundle #lightbuilderpunch #diy #stampinup30 #2018holidaycatalogue

I stamped the small lights in Versamark over the top of the heat embossed word BRIGHT. I then used my Water Colour pencils and coloured thee wire and bulb area. I thought that if I added some fine tip glue over the bulbs it might make them appear brighter....But it didn't, I now have almost black lights with a coloured glowing area surrounding them 😂 Oh dear...we live and learn.

ESAD Holiday Catalogue 2018

Hello and welcome to another wonderful ESAD hop. 

You are currently here with me Kim Oliver- KOCreations Cards. You have most likely arrived from this clever ladies blog - Lou Kitzelmen

Today we are focusing our creative abilities on some of the stunning products now available in the just released 2018 Holiday Catalogue.
 I have a button further down for you to continue moving through to the next lovely designer in the hop when you have finished looking here. 

I have chosen to use an Embossing Folder that I fell in love with as soon as I saw it in the 2018 Holiday Catalogue and has now become a fast favourite and a go to for my backgrounds and elements.

 'Tin Tile' Dynamic TIEF

It's called the 'Tin Tile' Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF)

I have paired this with a stamp set from the Annual Catty called 'Country Lane'.

Here is my project

Happy Birthday

#kocreationscards #tintiledynamictief #2018holidaycatalogue #stampinup30 #masculinecards #birthdaycards #mensbirthday #cardmaking #countryroad

Just look at all of that texture!

The Embossing folder creates an amazing background piece. I used the folder on a piece of Crumb Cake card stock and then did a little distressing work using some new Shimmer Paint (found on page 38). I have used 'Frost White' (#147046) and applied it with a Sponge Dauber. I then rubbed Memento Tuxedo Black Ink over the top with another Sponge Dauber to grunge it up and add character. I curled the opposing edges and glued to the 'Thick Whisper White' card base.

Next up we have the talented Nicole Wilsons blog, to get there please click the "NEXT" button below. Or alternatively you can jump to anyone in the hop by using the list directly under the button.
