Welcome Little One

Posted on , updated on by Karolina Klaus

 

Today I have a card with image from Digital Paper which I felt in love. Project is very dimensional with lots of leaves and flowers. As a background I used papers We R Memory Keepers from “Madame Royale” and “Twirl”. There are also ribbons, raffia, laces and doily as well as lovely chipboard from store called Miszmasz Papierowy.

 

I’m sending my project to November challenge from Digital Paper called “Leaves”:

How to use used presents papers?(tutorial+tag)

Posted on by Karolina Klaus

 

Do you also have hidden used presents papers that you don’t want to through away? I definitely have 😉 Today I will show you how to used them as a element of a card.

So just prepare:

-piece of paper(I used 160gsm)

-brush

-PVA glue

-scissors

-chalk paint(acrylic or latex works well too)

-used presents paper

 

1.Tear up paper to a smaller pieces(you can also crumble it which gives extra texture) and glue them to a paper. If you like game Tetris this task is for you 😉  Don’t forget about the edges of overlapping pieces.

 

2.Cut hanging out pieces.

 

3.Leave it to dry(you can use a heat tool)

 

4.Paint a whole sheet using a dry brush technique but  leave some unpainted spots

 

5.When it dries you can use it as a background or cut it with a scissors or dies

 

Instead of paper for packing presents you can also use a silver lined paper from chocolate(crumbled and glued this way will give a nice texture).

I, of course, couldn’t stop myself from use my leaves straight away in a tag:

My project have handmade flower, pieces of ribbons and fabrics. Star it’s actually cutted in half styrofoam form and pasted with a silver from a Ferrero Rocher :p

My tag goes to Manuna challenge:

 

I’m also sending it to Craft Passion Bingo challenge- I’m using diagonal line- TWIGS/LEAVES-FLOWERS-LAYERS:

Birthday in gray

Posted on , updated on by Karolina Klaus

 

Hello, today I would like to present you something different than usual. A card in gray – something I haven’t done before. For a focal point I used my flowers, the biggest one is from foamiran foam and others from paper. And, of course, there is lots of ribbons, diecutted elements, tulle, glitter, buttons. I also used plastic frame and I made some hearts from chipboard and piece of silvery-white paper from chocolate. Lots of layers, that’s what I like 🙂  I hope that’s not look too sad.

 

 

I’s sending my card for a Eko Deco challenge:

Once a Beautiful Lady

Posted on by Karolina Klaus

 

Today I have another Christmas card made for an order(I’m slowly catching this mood 🙂 ) My work will be send by mail in bauble envelope, so it has to be more flat than my usual cards. I kept  this card in traditional Christmassy colours and inspiration for it was moodboard from a Studio 75. Main decoration here is lovely graphic from Lemoncraft, which reminds me of a beautiful carol(I took my sentiment from there). In my project I used sisal, diecutted elements, ribbons, snowballs made from cotton, stars cut out with knife from a whine cork, gems and an openwork sweater with silver thread( 🙂 ). Background is paper called “Snow Queen” from Galeria Papieru.

Christmas “candy” card

Posted on , updated on by Karolina Klaus

 

Hello, I have a “candy” and shabby chic card for you today. This card is not in typical christmassy colours. Inspiration here was actual Lemoncraft’s challenge with wonderful moodboard. I used papers from  a collection called  “Tiny Miracles Basic” and image from card with Christmas graphics from a Lemoncraft. I my work I used also lots of die cuts, laces, ribbons and pompoms. For a very first time I made this year cookies(for a decoration 🙂 ) from a potato starch and PVA glue. I cut them using cookie cutters, part of them I decorated by pressing stamp(to get a nice pattern). Exactly this star, painted pink I used for this project. I hope that my card will make your gray, autumn day more happy.

Card, of course, is going to Lemoncraft:

 

I’m sending my project to Crafty Moly for they openwork challenge:

 

This card is in shabby chic style so it’s perfect for Przyda SiÄ™ challenge:

“Old” card for a new road

Posted on , updated on by Karolina Klaus

 

Hi, today I want to present a card which is more rustic, old, bit vintage style. For a background I used brown paper which I rubbed brown ink pad and a white gesso for a distressed, whitened wood look. I also used cream lace, linen cord, brown paper and old book page(from 2 last ones I made a flowers). The whole look wouldn’t be complete without a decorative padlock and a linen fabric which I wrapped around frame.

 

I would like to take a part in OLD-VINTAGE-RUSTED challenge from “DIY czyli zrób to sam” blog:

This card I’m sending to “anything goes” challenge to Card Mania Challenges:

First Christmas card in 2017 :)

Posted on by Karolina Klaus

 

Hello, today I made a card which brings feeling of upcoming, in less than 2 months, Christmas. It is little a bit of rustic, with papers from MHKDesigns, which I won almost a year ago(!) in autumn challenge. Card is heavy dimensional with a big  rose made from junk mail and painted with a chalk paint. In this creation I used lots of natural elements(dry orange slice, pinecones, feather, sisal) and also few botanical diecuts. I like this color combo of brown paper, white and red. What about you?

I’m sending my card to Christmas at Sweet and Stampin’ Challenge Blog:
