Prima Hybrids- Off with their heads!

Hi Everyone, Im back again to show you what Ive been doing during the not so lazy summer holidays. This is a project I shared as a Team designer on AuntyVera Scrap and Craft blog. You can check it out here . Im one of those people who gets a bit bored with using the same stamps over and over again so I got this GREAT IDEA !!! What would each Julie Nutting Doll look like if her head was placed on another body?? Lets test it out!!! So to start off with, I only have the following Julie Nutting Doll Stamps: Sea Sallie Mermaid Nikki with the Peasant Dress: Taylor: Meghan: And Aidan (the only boy stamp I have): So the first thing I did was stamp them all out!! This took lots of time and in my fervour, I didn't not take pictures at this stage. But you know what that stage looks like !! Let me just say that I use Archival Ink for all my stamping!! Then, the next stage is the one that takes the most time!!

Faux Woodgrain Background

Dear Readers, I just LOVE the look of wood grain paper. I think it looks exactly like weathered wood and sometimes I feel like if I reach out and touch, it might just feel like real wood. But of course, it is just the illusion - faux wood- if you will. Here are 2 pieces of 12 x 12 paper I got from the recent Coastal Escape Collection by Kaisercraft Look at all the details in these papers. The knots, the wood grain, the NAILS!!  I love it SOOO much. So I wondered if it was possible to find a technique that would allow you to take normal white card stock and turn it into a faux wood background. I looked on the YT and found a few tutorials and pooled all the techniques to come up with my own way of making faux wood backgrounds: Stamp TV's tutorial MayMay's tutorial Kimi Orton's tutorial Step 1:  I scoured the paper with my Stampin' Scorer and created grooves vertically and horizontally Step 2: I  then flipped it o

Coastal Escape Cards and ATCs

Dear All, Today I am making cards and ATCs to fit a summer beach theme for a group I am swapping with. First, I used water color paper and produced a lovely layout using this color palette. Next, I sued this anchors embossing folder by KaiserCraft to create some dimension to the paper. Here I layered the paper with a "rope" speciality paper from the Coastal Escape collection. I used pieces from the ephemera pack and some hessian from my own stash to create this card below A second card I made: My third card: So here are all the cards in one view: Now for the ATC's: No 1: No 2: No 3: Here they are all together: Here they all are: Now, I need to decide which card is going with which ATC to which swap partner. Decisions! Decisions :) Thank you so much for stopping by.. Until we meet again.. Happy Crafting. xxAmiraInOz
