Pink Paislee - Spring Jubilee Tag & Cards

During my "break" from house cleaning & workshop organizing,
I couldn't resist making a few things from a small stash I still had.
Pink Paislee "Spring Jubilee" is a really pretty collection of teals, pinks & rose colors.

The tag is about 4-1/2" x 7-3/4".
I decorated it by playing off of the prints in the paper.
A small ticket is hung by jute twine on the front.

The white flowers in the paper remind me of stenciling, 
so that's exactly what I did - a bit of stenciling with Tim Holtz's Roses.
ReneaBouquet's Magical Miniatures "Memory Keeper" butterflies are just right for this tag!

Here is a close up of the bottom of the tag where I added a few coordinating 
flowers & another precious ReneaBouquet's butterfly!

To the back of the tag, I hung a stackable Honey Bee in ReneaBouquet's Beautiful Board.
I also added a bee corner; and then to both, a black rhinestone.




Next are a couple of 6 x 6 cards. 
First I'll show you "Queen for the day!" which could be for a number of occasions, 
but I thought birthday would be really fitting.

Using a white pigment pen, I traced some stars & circles with Prima's Royal Menagerie stencil "Decor #1".
They mimic the stars printed on the paper.    

I made the title by printing it on my computer and then die cutting it.

I had several of this same page, 
so I fussy cut the bird and foam taped it slightly offset on top of the one on the card.

The inside is simple.
I glued two different pieces from the collection onto thin cardboard;
then stenciled the same Prima "Decor #1" using Texture Paste.


The other card I made is also 6 x6.
I've die cut & just laid the sentiment "Thank You!" to see how it would look.
So, basically, I can make this for many different occasions, using the right words.

A couple of cute strawberry flowers were placed with the printed flowers;
then an adorable resin bicycle that I added two toned rosebuds to the basket.

The inside is very simple. 
I die cut a couple of papers for each side and adhered them to thin cardboard.

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

Kaisercraft - Porcelain Rose - Cards

Here are a few of the cards and card-tags I made from the beautiful Kaisercraft Porcelain Rose collection.
I really think I should take a break from card making for a bit
because I've let my house go to dust, if you know what I mean!

All are made very simply; some using the die cut cardstock in the collection.
As with all of the recently made card collections, these leave room for more embellishing, like flowers.

Here they are, starting with what I call "The Bird Cards".
I popped up the die cuts with foam tape for added dimension.

Next is a "To Love" card.
Another popped up die cut from the collection.

Last, but not least, are the Card Tags that measure 4" x 5".

Thanks for your visit!
Have a great day,
Lisa : )

Kaisercraft - Lavender Haze - Cards

I'm getting such a wonderful sense of accomplishment creating as much as possible 
with the remaining pages in my older beautiful paper collections.
Kaisercraft's Lavender Haze is pretty, fun & dainty! 

I'll start first with two skinny cards that both measure 3-1/2" X 8".

The 1st one is horizontal.


I colored the Dusty Attic Monarch Butterflies with Jet Black Archival ink.
To the middle large one, I added "Ice Queen" (baby blue) Prills inside the wings.

I also put Frosted Lace Stickles in the wing spots.

The 2nd one is vertical.
First I placed a piece of white drywall joint tape on one side. 
This coordinates with the same pattern you can see on the opposite edge.
Four diamond shaped tiny tags from the Collectables (die cut cardstock) were placed in a row 
on the drywall tape, each with coordinating embroidery 'ribbons' & inked edges. 


A couple of close ups of the diamond shaped mini tags. 







Most of the remaining cards I created are 6X6 size.
I utilized the collection's Collectables, 6-1/2 x 6-1/2 paper pad & the stickers.
Here a just a few of them.




The inside of the dragonfly card (above).
See how cute & useful stickers and cardstock die cuts can be!

Here are two little gift cards made from small leftover paper pieces.
They measure 3-1/2" x 3-3/4". 

I die cut and adhered white cardstock inside each for writing space.


I really appreciate your visit.
Have fun crafting and have a great weekend!
