Debate Team Card Kit

 Happy Friday everyone! I would like to share some more cards that I created with the May Debate Team Card kit.

I die cut out the word “happy” and a flourish element from black cardstock and then used the negative piece as my focal point for my card. Behind it I placed the dictionary type paper that is in the kit so it peeks out from the die cuts. I embellished with a few sequins from the store and my card was done.



My next card was all about the patterned paper in the kit that looks like cork. I first made a background layer using the brown cardstock and a muted piece of paper from the kit and stitched around it with my sewing machine WITHOUT using any thread just to poke holes all around the edge. Next I took a butterfly punch and made 9 butterflies out of that fabulous “cork” paper and placed them in 3 rows on the card and put a pearl in the center of each.

My “Hello” sentiment is made using the Jillibean alphas in the kit.



In the kit is this map type paper and I matted it with the striped paper which made me think of air mail envelopes. Do they even still exist? Maybe I am dating myself….lol!

 I used the following items from the store to embellish  my card. Blue sequins, Flair.

I hope you will pop over to the Paper Bakery store and pick up a card kit for yourself!

April Train Station Card Kit

Happy Saturday everyone!

I’ve already shared 2 cards using the April Train Station card kit from Paper Bakery but I still have 3 more that I would like to show you.

The cool wood veneer came in the kit but I just coloured in the letters with a black marker to make them stand out. I also used a bitty bag that I received at some point from Paper Bakery and the Kraft card base is from the March card kit.


For this card I tried another fun technique using the gelato and an embossing folder. The “happy” and the hearts are from the exclusive cut file for April and the sequins you can find in the store right here

.
On my last card I added in some patterned paper from the January card kit. I made one of the tickets from the ticket roll the focal point and I just love the sentiment!

Don’t forget that you can find the April card kit right here.

Have a fabulous weekend!!

Fun with gelato!

No I am not talking about Italian ice cream….lol!!

In the April Train Station Card Kit  for Paper Bakery you receive an aqua gelato by Faber-Castell. I haven’t really played with gelatos so I did some research……on Pinterest of course….and was inspired by a video made by Darlene DeVries.

Here is my card inspired by the video.

Let me take you through the steps to recreate it.


Spread gesso onto a piece of white cardstock.


Rub your gelato all over. I added a bit of gold gelato too. Then just blend it all in with your finger.


Place one of your favourite Paper Bakery stencils over top and rub off some of the gelato with a baby wipe. You can find all of the exclusive stencils right here.


I also flicked a bit of water onto the piece to add some extra white spots.


I finished up my card by adding some of the gold glitter stars and the thank you wood veneer that I embossed black.

I hope you have as much fun playing with the Gelato in the kit as I did!

News Flash!

I'm not done sharing my cards from the Paper Bakery March Daylight Savings Card Kit yet...lol!

The adorable camera paper in the 6x6 paper pad that comes in the kit was perfect to use with an exclusive stamp that came in this scrapbook kit. The kit is still available I see so I would suggest a little retail therapy. :)

That adorable "smile" flair is from Paper Bakery too.

Everything is from the card kit other than:

Cardstock: SU, A.C.

Versamark, Embossing powder

Edited Aug.3/14 to link up to the challenge at Paper Issues.

A splattering of sequins to embellish my card and it was done!

 

Speech Bubbles?

One of the papers from the March Card Kit from Paper Bakery called Daylight Savings had all these speech bubbles and it reminded me of texting on a cell phone so this is the card I created.

Everything is from the kit other than the cardstock form A.C. and SU

Stickers from kit: Teresa Collins "Daily Stories"

The wood veneer speech bubbles co-ordinated with the paper soooooo perfectly!

I cut the cell phone out using my Cameo.
