Today I’m a Guest Designer for a Bloomcraft

Posted on by Karolina Klaus

 

Hi, today I’m inspiring in a Bloomcraft blog with they new challenge with a moodboard.

 

 

As an inspiration for this challenge I made a card for a woman who loves tea and books(same as me 🙂 ). I used 2 from this year trends – mandala and color of the year 2018 from Panton Ultra Violet. I drew mandala by myself(very relaxing acctivity 😉 ) with a bit of help from calipers. Then I drew on a top with Wersamark marker and I heat embossed it. I painted it with watercolors and fussy cut it. I didn’t forget about free graphic from a Bloomcraft :). Background and a cup are made from an old book, and flowers are, of course, made by me. I also used papers from a Lemoncraft collection called “Tiny Miracles Basic”. And now who will say: I don’t like a violet? 😉

Guest’s project for a Craft-o-clock

Posted on by Karolina Klaus

 

Hello, today I’m a Guest Designer in Craft-o-clock challenge(to inspire you). Please visit they page to get some more information and take a part in current challenge:

I made light, fresh and very feminine birthday card. For a background I used paper number 3 from “Marzenia o Poranku” collection. I cut some part of it into a strip, wet it down and fold in accordion shape( I even pinched it a bit, to give it more distressed look), and thanks to this paper will better keep this his form.

Flowers are of course made by me – big rose is from foamiran and flower with a shiny center and small rose is from a paper. There is also lots of twine, stitching, tulle and embossed on vellum leaves. I either used buttons in blue color, paper nr 3 from collection called “My Precious – Boy”. Lovely badge is actually glued to a paper an acrylic sticker.
Have a nice day

Hello, today I present you a welcoming baby tag. Very energetic graphic is a project made by Janet(Digital Paper). I kept this project in a soft, pastel tones. There are many layers an laces, everything that I like. I have not forgotten about my handmade flowers. Two of them are made from paper and one(white) from foamiran. Butterfly is from Lemoncraft and rest of the papers it’s a mix of items that work with this project and ones I had handy 🙂 Lately my big love is a white embossing on vellum(I used it on leaves), did you notice? 😉

Last Christmas card in 2017

Posted on , updated on by Karolina Klaus

 

Hi, holidays flies really fast for me and I still didn’t show you all my Christmas project. Today I have a card in shabby chic/vintage style. To make it i used collection “Christmas Greetings” from Lemoncraft and and graphics from same company.

Flower it is a painted with watercolors baby wipe. To make this card more romantic in style I used some laces, shabby satin ribbons, sisal and paper ribbon which is actually a “slice” from roll of a crepe paper. I added few sprigs cut from a die, few dry embellishments, artificial berries, I dry brushed all composition with white acrylic paint and glitter. Now just sentiment left and it’s ready.

 

I wouldn’t be me if I din’t send my card for some challenges, so it go to:

-Klub Twórczych Mam:

 

-Country View Challenges;

http://countryviewchallenges.blogspot.co.uk/?m=0

 

-Skarbnica Pomysłów – I used line-DOILY-FLOWERS-MINIMUM 2 MEDIA-(my mediums are a watercolors, acrylic paint and a glitter):

 

See you soon

Card called exploding box

Posted on by Karolina Klaus

 

Hello, today I have a bit different than usual card, because is in box shape – perfect for handing in person. To do it I used papers from Lemoncraft collection called “Everyday Spring Basic”(sic!).

Mug with cocoa, whipped cream and sugar cane is made by me using watercolors, and glued using 3D squares. “Foam” is sprinkled with brown glitter, which suppose to mimic chocolate powder. Decorative gingerbread  is made using real spices and smells very realistic, but is much harder and much more stronger than those made for eating 😛  Decoration which imitates icing is a stamped and white embossed. Don’t you think that the altogether looks very yummy? My husband-glutton says it looks 😉

Second side of a box – pouch with mitten contains tag, which I left plain for a greetings. I dry embossed glove using embossing folder, which gives it knitted look.

Third side of a box is made from circles and doily and date of Christmas Day(just in case if someone forgot it 😉 )

I stamped Santa using waterproof ink Staz on, I painted him using watercolors and glued with 3D foam.

Christmas tree in a middle is made from thick paper cut from circle shape and pasted with crepe paper (which I painted white). I glued some pearls and confetti star on the top.

 

I’m sending my exploding box to Lemoncraft challenge:

 

My card is also go to Uniko:

 

This exploding box is taking part in Bloomcraft challenge:

 

Have a nice Christmassy relax

Hello everyone in this Christmas time 🙂 Today I want to present you card in A4 size made for a special request. Background of this card is made from Lemoncraft collection called “Christmas Greetings Basic” and some lace. Wreath is from thick cardstock which I braided, paint white and wrapped around some tulle. Baby Jesus was painted by me using watercolours and special paper for this job. Silver stars are actually chipboard with glued wrapping from a yummy chocolate 😛 Furthermore I used some dried orange slice, cones, sisal, die cuts, artificial berries, handmade roses and gingerbread star(mix of potato starch, PVA glue, cocoa powder and spices), which smells very christmassy. Some day i will make a tutorial how to make this decorative gingerbread, but meanwhile I’m sending my card for some challenges 🙂
