La La Land Crafts Diabetes Awareness

Good Morning Everyone 

Today I have a card to share with you that I created in honour of a little girl with Type 2 Diabetes. 

I have used a stamp from Club La La Land Crafts December 2019 Kit, this stamp is now available to purchase on it's own and Digital Version so I will link those up for you.

I actually used the Digital Version only because I had some already printed out (there was a manufacturing fault in my original rubber so I purchased the Digital whilst I was waiting for my replacement stamp to be sent out). I now own the rubber version also. 

The image was printed onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock using my Brother Laser Printer, I use a laser printer as I know that I will never have an issue with bleeding from my Copic Markers. I added some extra details to the image using a white Gelly Roll pen which I will link up a few options for you.

I used patterned papers from Kaisercraft Little One Collection, this is an old paper collection so I do apologise if you have trouble tracking it down. I love the aqua colours in this paper pad and it was exactly the colour I was after for this card. 

I fussy cut the image using my EK Success Cutterbee Scissors, I recommend these all the time because they are perfect for fussy cutting, they have a nice sharp point on them and allow a nice roll around cut of the image. 

I cut the layers of patterned paper down using my Cutterpillar Pro and adhered them to a Couture Creations Pre Made Card Base, then adhered the image. 

The card needed more to finish it off before I added the sentiment so I punched out some Stars using EK Success Star Confetti Punch and some leftover white cardstock (I keep two small boxes next to my desk with offcuts of white and black card stocks for these things). 

The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions Simple Strips, I stamped them out using Memento Tuxedo Black ink then ran them through my Sizzix Big Shot.

I decorated the inside of the card using matching papers, sorry I forgot photos before I sent it out.

Everything was adhered using Helmar Acid Free liquid Adhesive. 

I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).

Whimsy Stamps - Meljens Dr. Bear

Hi Everyone, 

Today I am sharing with you a card I have created for Whimsy Stamps using Meljen's Designs Doctor Bear. This is such an adorable image. 

I merged the image and sentiments on my Apple MacBook Air's Pages App, then printed onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock using my Brother Laser Printer.

I coloured the image using Copic Markers, I will have a full list of the markers I have used below the video at the end of this blog post. 

I ran the image through my Sizzix Big Shot using a Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Die, I will link up a few different branded ones in the picture links below. 

The RX was cut from some scrap Aqua cardstock using a die from Club La La Land Crafts February 2016 Kit, this die is now for sale as a separate die as part of the Medical Elements set. 

I also cut some other dies from the kit - Bandaid die and Stethoscope die.

I used a Uni-Ball Angelic Gel pen to add details to the image. 

Using some leftover patterned papers from Whimsy Stamps Christmas Cool Mix, I trimmed them down layered one onto some white cardstock then adhered all the them using Scotch ATG onto a Couture Creations Card Base. 

The RX I adhered using Helmar Acid Free liquid Adhesive. 

I used leftovers of the patterned papers and those extra die cuts to the inside of the card. 

I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).

You Rock Harry, Happy Birthday

Hi Everyone,

Today I am sharing with you a card I created last week for a friend, she needed a card to give to her Nephew Harry for his 13th Birthday. 

Harry has started playing guitar and I knew this image would be perfect for him. This is Luka with Guitar from La La Land Crafts, he is available as a Digital Stamp and a Rubber Stamp. I love when companies do this as everyone's needs are met. 

I used the Digital Version of the stamp as I needed it straight away. I sized it up using the Pages app on my MacBook Air, then printed it onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock using my Brother Laser Printer. 

I trimmed the stamp down from the A4 page I printed (I always print a full page of images when printing Digital Stamps), I then fussy cut him using my EK Success Cutterbee Scissors, I know I probably sound like I'm on repeat but these scissors are my go to for fussy cutting as they are super sharp and pointy which is exactly what you need for fussy cutting. 

I began by colouring his skin, I used E000, E00, E21, E11, E04 and R20, this is usually my go to blend for skin although I do have a few others up my sleeve. 

I added a light coating to his hair, I didn't go any further at this stage because I was waiting for my friend to let me know what colour hair Harry has. 

I moved on to colouring his jeans, I used B95, B97, B99 for his jeans and used his skin tones on the patch I created (Irina from La La Land Crafts did a video on this last week, ill see if I can link it up). I then coloured up the rest of the jeans. I added some details to them using a Uni-Ball White Gel Pen. 

Next we move on to his jumper, I used R14, R37 and R39 to do this.

My friend has now sent through the colours of Harry's Hair so I will go back and complete this. 

Now let's put the card together. 

I apologise I lost some of my footage off my camera - apparently it was corrupted.. grrr. 

What you missed on the video - I used dies from MFT Stamps Rock and Roll die set and cut out the flames, the numbers are from Lawn Fawn Quinn's 123's I ran them through my Big Shot using Canson Card Stock. 

The sentiment I printed from my computer because I needed it personalised and it was the easiest way to do it - I used some X-Press It Blending Card for this as I like all my white's to be the same. 

The little stars were punched out using an EK Success Star Confetti Punch and American Crafts Black Cardstock. 

Harry's name was a challenging one - I had this great idea to print it out. I printed it onto a scrap piece of paper first, then trimmed down some vellum and adhered it directly over what I had already printed and attached it using Washi Tape. I ran it back through my printer, it looked great... however it just wasn't doing.. aah. I was doing something else on the card and ended up with black ink on my hand - lucky I didn't mess my card up.. I tried to dry it using my Heat Gun but it just wasn't making any difference so I grabbed a permanent marker and carefully went over it, I hit it with the heat gun again really carefully and finally it was dry! 

The big Star on the card was from another MFT die set but now I can't find it to link it haha. It will show up once this goes live im sure, 

I cut the guitar from Canson Cardstock using Guitar die from La La Land Crafts - this item is for sale as a separate die now, however I received as part of the November 2018 Club La La Land Crafts. 

  

I used leftovers of dies etc to decorate the inside of the card.

Fight for good fitness - La La Land Crafts

Hi Everyone,

Today I am sharing with you a card I created for a friends daughter for her 12th Birthday. My friends daughter has just began Boxing for fitness and self esteem. Courage Marci from La La Land Crafts was the perfect image for her card. 

This stamp came from the Club La La Land Crafts December 2019 kit however she is now available to purchase as a separate stamp and digital stamp. I also used the I'm here for you stamp set, this is also available in both rubber and digital formats. I will have everything linked up in the picture links below. 

I stamped the images onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink in my Mini Misti Stamping Platform and coloured them using Copic Markers.

Once I had the images coloured I used my EK Success Cutterbee Scissors to fussy cut the image right on the line without leaving any white space as I knew I was going to make a scene.

Below my blog post you will find a list of all the Copic Markers used.

I layed my images out to sort out my design, I cut the word happy from a Lawn Fawn die called Scripty Happy, I actually ended up running it through a second time using black card stock. 

The sentiment is also from Lawn Fawn, I used Simply sentiments and Plan On It Birthdays.

For the Birthday numbers I used Finley's Number dies.

The Heart Balloon is from an old retired MFT Stamp die set called Heart Balloons. I cut it from X-Press It Blending Card and I coloured it using Copic Markers.

Patterned papers are from Pebbles Inc Ever After Collection - this is an old paper collection so you won't be able to get your hands on it - I do apologise but I do need to eventually work my way through my paper stash :-)

I also added a doily from my stash.

I cut some base layers from other American Crafts Card stocks and adhered everything using Helmar Acid Free liquid adhesive.

I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).

Helmar - Create with Deni - A Summer Bookmark

Good Morning All,

Today I am sharing with you all a Bookmark I created using a few different adhesives from Helmar - I have used the Acid Free and the Scrap Dots.

First of all I am using a brand new stamp from La La Land Crafts called Reading On The Beach Marci, she is part of the June 2020 Club so isn't available to purchase separately at the moment. 

I trimmed the stamp set down using my Tim Holtz red scissors, then used my Mini Misti to stamp out the Marci image onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black. 

I coloured the image up using Copic Markers then fussy cut her out using my EK Success Cutterbee Scissors. 

I used a bookmark die from  Mama Elephant that unfortunately I couldn't find any links for so I have linked up some other dies for you to try out. 

I cut out some clouds from MFT Stamps Puffy Clouds, and some flowers from an old retired die set. 

For my flower I layered each section up using some Helmar Scrap Dots, I love this adhesive it's like liquid foam tape :-).

I adhered the clouds to my patterned paper using Helmar Acid Free. 

I then used the Helmar Scrap Dots to add adhesive to the back of my Marci image then carefully layed her down onto my patterned paper. 

I added the same Helmar Scrap Dots to the back of my flower and carefully adhered it to my bookmark. I left all of my layers to dry then added some ribbon to complete the bookmark. 

I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).
