Punch Art for boys

23 January, 201511 January, 2015 craftwithkate

Hello Crafters,

Today I am going back to some punch art to create a card for my nephew who turns 6 today! Happy Birthday buddy!!!!

Punch Art for boys

The punches used are mostly circles and word window. Once all the pieces are glued together, I added the plane to the card with dimensionals so it actually looks like it is flying!

Here is a close up.

Appy farewell & thank you

17 December, 201413 December, 2014 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Today I want to share with you some cards I have made for two of our most helpful men in the computer department where I work. They will be leaving us this week and I am very sad to be saying farewell to both of them.

I couldn’t think of what type of farewell card was appropriate for them, but then thought about an iPhone, as it is the latest fad that everyone seems to have!

So this is what I came up with.

Farewell card iphone

Is my caption corny enough??!!!! “Appy farewell”, lol

I just copied the measurements of my own iPhone to get the size as close as possible.

I hope they like it!

Hello Crafters,

This morning I share with you a card I made for a birthday party my daughter went to on Saturday. I had no idea what to make for this 8 year old boy, so I went searching for ideas on Pinterest (my favourite place for brilliant ideas)!

I saw a card similar to this on Sarah-Jane Rae‘s blog in the UK.

This is a great card for any Star Wars fan!

Hope you are all enjoying the Melbourne Cup Carnival as I know I certainly am, as we have the Monday and Tuesday off work!!!

Today I share with you some cards created using the Work of Art Stamp Set. You may be like me and think “what on earth would I use that for?”. Well, let me show you what you can create! Now all of these cards I did in one afternoon and yes, I did have some inspiration from Jenny van Dijk a fellow SU demo.

First of all, I wanted to share a couple of cards that can be used for those who may be struggling with the terrible illnesses of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) or Breast Cancer.

50th Birthday ~ Masculine

15 October, 201411 October, 2014 craftwithkate

Dear Crafters,

Continuing with the personalised card order, the next one was a 50th birthday for a male who loves cycling and red.

This is what I came up with:

I used the Birthday Basics DSP along with the coordinating card stocks of Gumball Green, Raspberry Ripple and Summer Starfruit!

The background is embossed with the Decorative Dots TIEF. Then the banners were cut using the Stampin’ Trimmer and some twine wrapped around the top before adhering with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment and used the Word Window and Modern Label punches.

I used an extra strip of DSP and cut the bottom into a banner to glue onto the envelope!

1 September, 201421 August, 2014 craftwithkate

Hello Crafters,

I needed a break from all the excitement of the Holiday Catalogue, so I share with you today, a card I made for a young boys birthday recently.

I used the Work of Art Stamp set from the Annual Catalogue (pg 165)

Work of Art

I used the Chevron TIEF to emboss the blue card stock base, then layered black card on top. I stamped the Work of Art stamps for the boat and sail and cut them out. The water is also from the same stamp set.

This was a very simple card to make but with great interpretation use of the Work of Art stamp set!

Work of Art

Next week I will share more creations from the Holiday Catalogue!

Card in a Box Style, Kids Cards, Masculine

Hawks

11 August, 20148 August, 2014 craftwithkate

Hello Crafters,

What a busy time of year it is for our family!

On the weekend, we celebrated by brother-in-law’s 40th birthday and he is a mad loyal Hawthorn Football Club supporter, so what better way to celebrate than with a card in a box style card in the Hawthorn theme!

Hawthorn FC Card in a Box

I used Chocolate Chip and Crushed Curry card stock to create the base of the card. I got the images off the HFC website and printed the words to the theme song and placed them at the inside back of the card.

Hawthorn FC Card in a Box

I had to add the 4 0 in some champagne glitter card!

and the sentiment from the Petite Pairs Stamp Set.

Do you think he will like this? I am sure hoping so!

Traveler (part 3)

Hello Crafters,

Here is part 3 using the Traveler Stamp Set and World Map.

This cardstock colour is Lost Lagoon, one of the new 2014-2016 In Colours and I think it is just beautiful.

Traveler

The World Map image is coloured using sponge daubers and ink pads, in Pacific Point, Lost Lagoon and Wild Wasabi.

This little anchor I found in a box stashed away for many years. I am not sure where I got them from, but I thought they just went with this card so well!

Traveler (part 2)

28 July, 201419 July, 2014 craftwithkate

Hello Crafters,

Here is part 2 using the Traveler Stamp Set and another great background stamp, World Map.

I began by stamping the images onto white cardstock with Stazon Black Ink.

Traveler

The colours are Real Red & Pacific Point. I coloured the World Map image using the Aquapainter and ink pads.

Traveler

I love the mini Silver Brads around the ship image to give it a port hole look!

Hello Crafters,

Another new stamp set in the Annual Catalogue which I am excited to share with you, is the Traveler Stamp Set. Over the next few weeks, I will share with you some of my creations using this set.

I began with the ship image, as my in-laws are currently cruising the Mediterranean for 44 days on something probably similar. Yes I am rather jealous, so I thought I would be creative and make a card instead.
