Auzz Trinklets N Crafts - Play To Your Strengths DT Post

Good Morning Everyone,


Another cool day here in Sydney at the moment, my poor little hands are not coping with the cold weather at the moment.. you'd think I was elderly the way I'm not coping haha.. but yep I'm in my thirties...

We are still playing to our strengths this month, of course mine is my Copic Markers, I love them to bits :-)

Today I have a card to share with you. I'm starting to get back into the hang of things here after a dry spell of creativeness. When I say starting to get back into it.. Ive made over 20 cards in the past two weeks which is fantastic. I have just been free crafting (meaning no writing down just products just enjoying the time) which has been awesome!

I created a card for a teacher.. I actually had in my mind to use a "teacher" word die for this card but of course I couldn't find it until i'd finished the card (but I did find the apple whilst searching).

I have used a few My Favorite Things products on this one.. MFT Red Delicious, MFT Straight To The Point Pure Innocence Stamp and I used the star from MFT Rock and Roll die set.. as I couldn't find any of my star dies either.. I have everything sorted in my craft room but a few things are just hiding from me at the moment.

I found a cute leaves patterned paper from Pebbles Party With Amy Locurto - Rainbow paper pad.. this is one of those paper pads i've had for a while.. I keep thinking it's one of those never ending pads but then I remembered i had purchased a few of them lol.

The Pure Innocence stamp I popped into my Misti Stamping Tool and stamped it onto some Mondi Color Copy 250GSM paper using Memento Tuxedo Black. I then cut her out using the matching die on my Sizzix Big Shot.

I coloured her up using Copic Markers. I used E11, E13, E15 for her skin, E71, E71, E74 for her hair. For the shoes and pencil I used C8 and C6 and R24, R29, R89 for the red parts. On the dress and her hair clip I used G40, G43 (I used one more darker marker but I'm unsure of what it was as I must have put it away). On the little book i just used N2, 0.
The Apple was cut using scraps from my leftovers bin, they are more than likely all American Crafts Cardstocks. The banner was cut using MFT Stitched Banners and I stamped a sentiment from the Pure Innocence Straight To The Point Set using Memento Tuxedo Black.
All my plain Cardstock is American Crafts cardstock which are all cut on my Cutterpillar Pro. The cardbase is a pre-made one from Twiddleybitz (I purchased these in bulk many years ago).

At the time of this blog post, this card is still for sale although not listed on my Facebook Page as I am about to do a big overhaul on my page with new pictures etc. (I'm waiting on my new Photobox to arrive). If you are interested feel free to send me a pm on my page. www.facebook.com/angelhandmadepapercraft

Good Morning Everyone

I'm so excited to share with you that I purchased a video camera last week (it's still in the box naughty me) to start doing process videos.. It's pretty cool how far technology has come, I purchased the Sony Handycam HDR-CX405 its a nice size compared to the old video cameras. The old one I have from when my eldest was born had the little cassette tape thing in it, this new one has a memory card.. very cool :-)

I haven't really had a chance to do anything with it yet as I need to do a few things to get set up.

I have been looking at microphones.. Mainly the Blue Yeti.. If anyone has any advice ill be using it on a Macbook Pro, i'd love to hear your reviews. I have had a look at a few cheaper ones on eBay but they all seem to have bad reviews on the sound quality. I'm happy to spend the big money for quality.

I'm very excited to start doing them and can't wait to build up my followers. Feel free to go over and follow my channel so you don't miss out when I start posting my videos :-)

Auzz Trinklets N Crafts DT- Play It To Your Strengths

Good Morning Everyone I have a Design Team card share for Auzz Trinklets N Crafts.

This month to break in the Design Team I thought i'd give the girls a chance to "Play to Your Strengths". So this is what we went with for our theme this month.

I decided my strengths were my Copics so I made a card using both my strengths and my weaknesses. I have never been much for using Distress Inks so I used those also.

I was finally able to get my hands on the "Mermazing" stamp and die sets from My Favorite Things in my last package from Auzz Trinklets N Crafts. I stamped the images using Memento Tuxedo Black in my Misti Stamping Tool, I coloured the gorgeous mermaid and the sea shell up using my Copic Markers and die cut them using the matching dies on my Sizzix Big Shot.

I decided to use the "Sending You Oceans Of Love" sentiment, so I grabbed some scraps of Canson Black cardstock that were sitting on my desk (which I prepped using an embossing buddy) and stamped it using Versamark Watermark Ink Pad and a Lawn Fawn Acrylic Block. I covered it in Wow Opaque Bright White (Superfine) Embossing Powder, Popped the excess back into the jar using some paper scrap that was on my desk. I then heated the Embossing Powder up using my Heat Tool and trimmed it to size using Tim Holtz 8.5" Trimmer from Tonic Studios. I cut the Flag end using my Cutterbee Scissors, I just cut a slip in the centre and met the corners to the middle creating the flag.

I hadn't really planned this card out like I normally would so at this stage I had no idea what I was doing haha.

I decided a blended background would be nice so I pulled out my Ranger Tim Holtz Embossing Inks and my Mini Ink Blending Tool. I used Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean and Faded Jeans to blend on some Mondi Color Copy. I added some splashes of water using Ranger Mini Mister, which I lightly dabbed back off using paper towel.

I then cut a circle out of the blended piece using Stitched Circle Dies from Lawn Fawn. I attached the images and the sentiment to the circle using Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Adhesive and Scotch ATG.

Next was time to find some matching paper.. which I actually didn't end up doing.. I decided to make some to match.

I pulled out my Mermazing stamp set and My Favorite Things Hybrid Inks and started stamping onto Mondi Color Copy and creating a background paper. I used Sour Apple and Gumdrop Green. The paper still looked like it was missing something so I used the Avery Elle That Bites stamp set and grabbed the little bubbles image and added some of those in Black Licorice Hybrid Ink.

I cut a black square using Canson Cardstock and Lawn Fawn Stitched Squares dies on my Sizzix Big Shot, I then added the patterned paper using Scotch ATG and then added the circle (with images and sentiment attached) using Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Adhesive. I used some Mod Podge Dimensional Magic on the shell in her hair and the extra shell. I added Wink Of Stella Clear Glitter Brush to the Mermaid and added some sequins to the water.

Once all the layers were complete I added them to a pre-made Twiddleybitz card base using Scotch ATG. On the inside of the card I used another black stitched square from Canson cardstock. I added a strip of the leftover blended cardstock to the bottom, used left over images from my die cuts, stamped some of the plant images to the corner. I then stamped the sentiment to bottom to finish it off.
