Reviewing the "All for Love "Paper pack from Craftangles by CraftAdda

Hello!

This paper pack that I am reviewing for CraftAdda today is just delicious!!!

the Craftangles "All for Love Paper Pack" has so many varied papers...as you can see, I haven't used the love themed ones. The papers are sturdy and have a beautiful smooth matt finish..a dream to work with!

I used a sketch from Retrosketches to help me start and used jute twine  from MayArts and butterfly buttons to embellish the card.

I decided not to add a sentiment, as it is always nice to have some blank cards on hand.

I hope you enjoy playing with these papers too...You can shop for them and other awesome art and craft supplies here...

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day!

Monochrome with a splash of colour

 Hey there!
I am playing the retrosketches RS#189 challenge with this card.
I decided to play with a monochromatic colour theme with a pop of colour...I was so happy to find this paper pack...I had forgotten I had it! It is the 'Mono Paper Pack' from Paper mania.

I decided to over lay the papers with vellum(..just 'cause I liked the printed paper so much) and stitched the vellum paper on with white embroidery floss.
The flowers  and leaves are made using punches and the sentiment is a peel-off sticker from Anita's.

Thanks so much for stopping by...

Have a great day!

Scooting by!

 Hey there! I am playing the Paper players challenge #263, the Paper Smooches Sparks 'Anything Goes' Challenge and the Retro sketches Challenge# 182  and the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge 'Use a rubber /clear stamp this evening.
I used the Paper Smooches 'Spiffy scooters' stampset and the Mama Elephant dies and Tim Holtz distress inks to make this card.
I coloured the scooter with Faber Castell colour pencils and fussy cut the image.
The little leaves are from Stampendous and I like the fun way they seem to be flying in the wind!

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great evening!

 

Wild About blue

Hello all!

I am playing with some awesome new papers from the Wild about Blue 6"x6"papaer packWild About Blue 6"x6" paper pack from Crafttangles for Craft Adda, the awesome online craft store!

For this card, I made some punch craft flowers with white paper as well as stacked some Thank you die cuts (from Penny black) to add dimension.

For this card, too, I made some punch craft flowers, but reversed the colours! I just love the look of the pretty blue flowers against the white tag! I finished the card with a simple stamped sentiment from Lawn Fawn.

For this card I went for strong background colours and pretty punched butterflies in light blue.
I added a simple sentiment stamp from Paper smooches to finish off the card.

Printed butterflies!

Hello all!I am playing a few challenges today with this fun card which I made  with some awesome new papers from Crafttangles.

  After struggling with them for a bit, I decided to use the Retrosketches Challenge #180  and the colour throwdown #359 to make the card.

I decided to submit it for the NBUS (the papers are new!)challenge, the SSSmonday (die cut or punch challenge), and the Paper smooches anything goes challenge.

The sentiment is from Paper Smooches and I added some self adhesive gemstones to finis off the card.

Thanks so much for stopping by...

Have a great day!

 

Mason jar shaker card.

Hey there!

I have decided to play three fun challenges today….they were fun but very challenging for me!!!

I am playing the 'CAS-ual Friday felt and sequins' challenge, the 'retrosketches RS147' challenge and the 'Fusion Card challenge'...where I have been inspired by the pink colours and the mason jar in the photo.

To make this card, I used the Papertrey ink mason jar die to cut out the window for the shaker. Instead of filling it with sequins, I decided to punch out little pink safety pins with a punch I have and put them in. The background stamp is one from a set I bought second hand…so don't know which company it is from. The 'BABY' sentiment is from the same set and I hand wrote the word 'welcome'. 

The stars are felt and cut with my spellbinders nest abilities star die and I added some sequins to finish off the card.

It was hard to step out of my comfort zone to make this card, but I am thrilled with the result!

Thanks so much for stopping by…

Have a good evening!

Retro sketches challenge no.59

It's really late and I am playing two challenges tonight...

The Retro sketches challenge no.59

And the Paper Players Challenge no. 141...I just missed this one!!!

Here is my interpretation!

Stamps are from Stampendous 'hand of friendship' stamp set  and Verses Rubber stamps.

The bangles, flower and sentiment are heat embossed with American crafts and Stampendous embossing powder. 

I used my Versamark pen to ink the bangles and the flower before I heat embossed them.

The background stamp is from Stampendous..'Marble texture cube'.

Inks are from Versamark, Versafine  and Memories.

I like this one...

What do you think?

Thanks for stopping by...

Enjoy!!
