Right now......

Good morning, Rikki here today with the promised masculine take on the Kaisercraft Chase Rainbows collection.  

I knew straight away that this red was going to be the main feature of this layout but it needed another colour to balance it out, this is where a black or grey card stock would come into it, and then add other black features throughout the layout.

Dont forget to mount some of your Kaisercraft Chase Rainbows Collectables onto your card stock to help tie everything together.

Got to love the Your Creative Wings Chevron Strip, its great value with all those pieces in it.

So pop into the store now and grab this range today.

Till next time, have a creative day.

Time doesnt stand still.....

Good Morning Rikki here today with another share from the Kaisercraft Antique Bazaar collection. What's not to love about this range ? Its perfect for vintage, family, and especially boys. 

I am a huge fan of a diecut sheet and Kaiser haven't disappointed with this  Antique Bazaar 12x12 Specialty Paper Die Cut sheet. 

This range also has something for those who love to fussy cut, by using the Kaisercraft Antique Bazaar - Salvage piece of pattern paper you have instantly more than enough clocks to fill in a corner of a layout, with the left overs why don't you create a card?

Dont forget to use a couple of pieces of foam mount to add layers with all your elements.....

By adding the foam mount it will allow you to add the Your Creative Wings Chain in and under your  clock cluster.

Gelato Techniques in Cardmaking | Louise Beerens

Hi everyone!  I'm back with a little video where I share two cards that I made using scraps I had leftover from Kaisercraft's "Shine Bright" Collection.  

I loved this collection from the first second I laid eyes on it- ask Sonya, she was there- and so I am not going to let any itty bit of it go to waste!

I paired my scraps with my Gelatos to use two different tehniques to create my cards.....

As usual, leave a comment if you have any questions and I will do my best to answer them for you.

On Stage Collection by Kaisercraft...

Happy Monday everyone, hope you are enjoying this public holiday.  Its Tracey here to share some fun layouts with you using the wonderful "On Stage collection" by Kaisercraft.

My son dreams of being a famous actor one day, its all he ever talks about.  He has been writing a script for ever and over the holidays finally got together with friends to start filming.  These papers were the perfect thing use to document this part of my son.

  My next layout that I want to share with you is probably my favourite layout for awhile. When I saw the record paper I just had to have it.  It was the perfect thing to record my summer playlist.

To get the photos for my layout I just Googled the song/album that I wanted, went to images, then screen shot the picture.  I then did a bit of editing on my phone using PicTapGo app.  Then I just uploaded the photos and printed them off.

I also added some stamping and a cute banner... I couldn't help myself.

Thanks for dropping by and checking out these layouts.  The papers are available in store but I wouldn't wait too long!!

Have a great week.

Love me :-)

Kaisercraft "Shine Bright" | Louise Beerens

I am so excited to share a couple of layouts I made using "Shine Bright" from Kaisercraft.  It is a new release for February and without a doubt it's my favourite Kaisercraft collection ever.  I could marry this collection.  Seriously.

"Shine Bright" has everything I am loving right now- yellow, black, white, grey with triangles, scripty words, text and bold graphics.  

I only had a few sheets of paper to work with but I put them together with a few die-cuts from the Collection Pack, white cardstock for my backgrounds and got to work.

 For my first page, I scribbled down some yellow Gelato and blended it out with water to create a watercolour look (super-easy and fun), wound up a blob of white thread which stuck to the wet Gelato, and then built my main foundation layers on top in my usual style.  I bent up the edges of my papers to add some texture and dimension.  I added a paper doily from my stash and some ink splats.....as you do ;-)

My next layout is in 8.5x11" format- one of my favourite sizes to work with- and I created a simple grid which I felt suited the graphic patterns in the papers.  Some ink splats and machine stitching were the only things I added to the papers and die-cuts.

So there's two completely different looks, but still in a style that come easily to me, and I have enough little scraps of paper left to make another page.  

As soon as this collection hits the shop I will be buying a sheet of everything (ok, probably two sheets of everything), so you had better be quick to grab some! Both of these layouts will be on display but leave a comment if you have any questions :-)
