Shabby Chic Explosion Box

Hello everyone! I hope that yo are having a wonderful week. Today I am sharing a project that I have created using  the French Roses Collection from Megs Garden.

 I decided to create an explosion box, as I wanted to feature the ephemera (cut and create elements of the collection), lace and also beautiful flowers that coordinate so beautifully with this collection.

The centrepiece of my project is the cake. It features lace, pearls and flowers from Megs Garden.

On all of my panels, I used a circular Marianne Design die as my base and built up from it. Here I added a clock ephemera element as my focal image and added some flowers and a butterfly.

 Adding a flourish and flowers adds a a softness to each page and an overall cohesion to the panels.

When selecting my images, I selected pairs...two florals and two non florals...for balance.

Supplies:

Megs Garden French Roses
Flowers
Lace
Bundle Pinks Shabby Chic

Other: Hero Arts Infinity Circle dies, Memory Box Amira Flourish, Botannical Stem and Whimsical Flourish, Marianne Design CR1201.

Hello ~ Meg's Garden

Hello everyone! Best wishes to you and yours for the holiday season. It has been a while since I have created a project for Meg's Garden and I felt my sentiment of 'hello' was fitting. Today I am using papers from the Spring Flowers Collection. There are soft pastel tones, vintage ephemera and lovely delicate images to create shabby chic projects.

To add dimension to my layers, I have used lots of foam tape! I used a large die from Poppy Stamps called Big Hello. I liked the thin script so you can see the beautiful papers beneath.

I  added some Nuvo Glitter Accents to add a bit of sparkle in random places including on the flowers.

I layered an older border Spellbinders Parisian accents die from my stash to compliment the lace. I also cut down a doily to frame one of the ephemera cards. These all add to the shabby chic feel of the card.

Ways To Incorporate Stamps Into Your Cards

Hello everyone! I hope that you are having a wonderful day. This month, Kaisercraft are releasing two exciting paper collections...one is a vintage shabby chic collection called Romantique and the second a beach, summery themed collection named Summer Splash. In today's post, I am sharing two cards using both collections and how I have used their coordinating stamps.

Using some left over paper from the centre section of my card, I die cut an oval frame and stamped my sentiment on it. I also stamped two butterflies from the stamp set and fussy cut them out to frame the vintage oval frame. I absolutely adore this collection!

My second card transformed several times during its construction. I got carried away with my stamping and had to take away my embellishments that I created as it over cluttered my card. I used the bubbles from the stamp set and stamped them repeatedly using white ink over the ombre papers. I also selected a sentiment and heat embossed it using embossing powder.

Both collections have wonderful complimentary products to work with. Stop by the Kaisercraft blog to view other inspiration from the Design Team.
