DT Rianna ~ Christmas 2

Hi everyone,

This month's theme is Christmas at Auzz Trinklets N Crafts and I have another cute card to show you all. This one I think most of you will WOOLY like, especially the crafters out there who love yarn! 😛

~My Process~

First I started with a white card base at 5 1/2 by 4 1/4 inches. The My Favorite Things A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 1 ( 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" ) was perfect to cut my front panels. I cut one from smooth yellow cardstock and a shorter textured piece in teal that I trimmed down. Using the Tim Holtz Stamp Platform, I stamped some cute little lambs and accessories from Mama Elephant's "Wooly Winter" using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them with Copic Ciao markers. Next I cut my images using a Scan N Cut to save time. 

After adhering my yellow and teal panels together, I stamped 'Happy Holidays' from Lawn Fawn's "Happy Happy Happy" set in Brilliance Graphite Black ink. These are such versatile stamps and can be used for many occasions. I adhered my front panels to my card base using Tombow's Multi Mono Liquid Glue and started adding my scene. I used the banner string die from Lawn Fawn's "Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up" die set to hang the super cute little sweaters on. Then I arranged the yarn balls into a tree and popped it up with some X-Press It foam tape, along with the little lambs. The sweaters and presents were adhered using Tombow's Multi Mono Liquid Glue.

I really enjoyed making this card. It is simple and yet so adorable for any yarn fans. Maybe those little lambs have been making their own wool for the sweaters?

DT Rianna ~ Christmas

Hi everyone,

This month's theme is Christmas at Auzz Trinklets N Crafts and I have a BEARY cute card to show you all. 🐻🎄

~My Process~

First I cut my card base at 8 1/2 by 5 1/2 inches, and folded it in half. Then I cut my card front (kraft cardstock) using My Favorite Things "A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 1" ( 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" ).

I stamped the 'Merry Christmas' sentiment using Mama Elephant's "Bella Letters" with Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks "Candied Apple" and "Lucky Clover" with the Tim Holtz stamp platform. I did one colour at a time and carefully removed the ink from either side of the stamp to achieve the 'two-tone multicoloured look'
I then cut out the sentiment with My Favorite Things "Stitched Fishtail Flags STAX" ( 5/8" x 4 1/2" ) die using the Sizzix Big Shot but altered the length.

I stamped the tree, star and tree trunk from My Favorite Things "Oh Christmas Trees" with Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks "Fossilized Amber", "Lucky Clover" and "Walnut Stain". The hats, bears and presents were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink so I could use my Copic Ciao markers to colour the images in. The bears are from Heffy Doodle's "Beary Big Heart" and the hats and presents are from Lawn Fawn's "Holiday Party Animal". I coloured the images in and cut them all out, the pink bear image is originally hugging a love heart, but I cut around the bear as I only wanted to use the bear in this project.

I adhered the card front, sentiment and images with Tombow's Permanent Adhesive Tape Runner.

I added some Wink of Stella to the white on the christmas hats, ribbons on the presents and the star. I originally had nothing on the tree, but it looked unfinished so I added Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops "White Blizzard" to represent baubles and I used a Wink of Stella fine tip pen to 'join' the baubles together to look like sparkly tinsel. I also added some Sakura black glaze pen for the bears noses.

DT Rianna ~ Pets and Animals 2

Hi everyone,

This month's theme is Pets and Animals at Auzz Trinklets N Crafts and I have another cute card to show you all. This one will be going to my 7 year old cousin for her 8th birthday, she loves dogs and I thought this would make her feel very happy when she receives it on her birthday and knowing her favourite cousin handmade it for her. 😛

~My Process~

First I cut my card base at 8 1/2 by 5 1/2 inches, and folded it in half. Then I cut my card front (blue cardstock) using My Favorite Things A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 1 ( 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" ).

I cut out the grass hill with Lawn Fawn's "Stitched Hillside Borders" die then put it through the Sizzix Big Shot with My Favorite Things A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 1 ( 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" ).

I cut the clouds using Lawn Fawn's "Simple Puffy Clouds" die, adhered it to the card front using Tombow's Multi Mono Liquid Glue and stamped the sentiment 'YAPPY BIRTHDAY!' from Mama Elephant's "Playful Pups" with the Tim Holtz Stamp Platform using Versafine Onyx Black ink.

I stamped the trees from "Snow Day" by Lawn Fawn using Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Evergreen Bough. Once cut out, I went over the trees with the ink pad dabbing them until I was happy with the result.

I stamped the dog "Lunar Animals" and birthday cake "Unicorns and Rainbows" by Mama Elephant using Memento Tuxedo Black on some X-Press It Blending Card so I could use my Copics to colour in the images. I didn't like having the cloud on the cake image, so I carefully trimmed it off using some scissors.

I adhered the card front to the card base using my ATG gun, everything else was adhered with Tombow Multi Mono Liquid Glue.

I added some Wink of Stella to the icing on the cake and Sakura black glaze pen for the dog's nose and eyes for some dimension.

~Products Used~

Accessories: • Sizzix Big Shot • Tim Holtz Stamp Platform • Poppy Crafts 210gsm A4 Premium White Cardstock • Sakura Gelly Roll Glaze: Black • Memento Pen: Tuxedo Black • Martha Stewart mini scoreboard • Tombow Multi Mono Liquid Glue • Coloured cardstock from Kmart Australia • Coloured cardstock from Target Australia • X-Press It Blending Card • Copic Ciao markers: E33, E35, E79, V01, V12, RV23, BG23 • ATG gun •

Ink: • Versafine: Onyx Black • Memento: Tuxedo Black •

DT Rianna ~ Pets and Animals

Hi everyone,

This month is full on with birthdays and special occasions, I will be turning 21 this Wednesday (15th November YAY!) how time flies by...but anyway, this month's theme is Pets and Animals at Auzz Trinklets N Crafts and I have created this cute birthday card that I made for my friend's birthday. She has quite a variety of pets!

I always enjoy playing around with multiple stamp sets to create something cute, fun and unique.

~My Process~

First I cut my card base at 8 1/2 by 5 1/2 inches, and folded it in half. Then I cut my card front using My Favorite Things A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 1 ( 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" ).

I used my Sizzix Big Shot to cut out the card front, clouds and grass.

I used the Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to stamp the sentiment 'HERD YOU HAD A BIRTHDAY' using Versafine Onyx Black ink and the animals using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I stamped the animals onto X-Press It Blending Card so I could use them with my Copic Ciao markers.

Everything was adhered to the card base and card front using Tombow Multi Mono Liquid Glue.

To add some dimension to the animals eyes and the cat and dog's nose I used a Sakura Glaze pen in black.

DT Teresa - All About The Men 2

Hello Everyone!

Today I have another card "All About the Men" to share with you.

This card uses Neenah Classic Crest 110# Smooth Solar White Cardstock for the base which is cut with a paper trimmer at 4 1/4" x 11" and scored with a teflon bone folder at 5 1/2" to make a side folding card of 5 1/2" x 4 1/4".

I die cut four white frames from My Favorite Things Blueprints 27 with a Sizzix Big Shot Machine from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Smooth Solar White Cardstock and one black cardstock frame to form a stacked layer and adhered this with Ranger Multi Medium Matte to the centre of the card front. 

I used the same die to die cut the inserts of the frame from Simon Says Stamp Seaglass cardstock. I placed these pieces in a MISTI and stamped them with the Hero Arts Waves Background stamp in My Favorite Things Berrylicious Hybrid Ink. I stamped the sentiments in onto each piece, using Versafine Onyx Black ink and then die cut the varying size waves into each piece with Lawn Fawn Ocean Wave Accents. I tucked the images from Lawn Fawn Duh-Nuh  into these die cut waves after stamping them in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colouring them with Copic Markers on X-Press It Blending card.

I placed each piece into the frame and propped up the head of the shark with a little 3M Scotch Double Sided Foam Tape. The googly eyes from my stash were then adhered and I swirled some Zig Wink of Stella, Clear onto all the shark images to complete this comic strip style card.

Thankyou for following along with me today. If you cannot find the items I have used (listed below) in the Auzz Trinklets and Crafts store, be sure to drop Neha a message via email or Facebook and she will do what she can to order the product in for you.

Happy crafting and have a great day!

Dt Deni - Play To Your Strengths 2

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

DT Teresa - Play To Your Strengths

Hello!

This month on the blog we are each 'playing to our strengths'. I have chosen to feature interactive card designs; they are so much fun to create and receive!

This card uses Neenah Classic Crest 110lb Smooth Solar White Cardstock for the base which is cut with a paper trimmer at 4 1/4" x 11" and scored with a teflon bone folder at 5 1/2" to make a top folding card of 5 1/2" x 4 1/4".

I die cut numerous copies of the claw machine with Lawn Fawn You're Claw-some Lawn Cuts from Neenah Classic Crest 80lb Smooth Solar White Cardstock, 15-16 in all, with a Sizzix Bigshot Machine. I took a negative from one of the diecut pieces and used it as a template to line up in the bottom left corner of my MISTI stamping tool. I then took one of the claw machine diecuts, inserted it into the template, lined up the claw machine stamp from Lawn Fawn You're Claw-some and closed the door of the MISTI, picking up the stamp. I stamped the image using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, removed the die cut and replaced it with the next blank diecut. I repeated this until all the die cuts were stamped.

I coloured the inside of the claw machine, the teddies and around them with Copic markers, this being the base layer. I then took 10 or so of these diecuts, cut the inside of the claw machine away, using a Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Design Ruler and a craft knife. I coloured only one of these pieces for the top layer of the claw machine. I used a die from Lawn Fawn, Slide on Over to cut a space for the My Favorite Things Slider Element to sit, into every one of the claw machine die cuts - apart from the base and top pieces. I stamped the hearts from Lawn Fawn, You're Claw-some along the top section of the machine on the top layer die cut.

I proceeded to adhere these pieces together with Ranger Multi Medium Matte, lining them up carefully. The sides of the diecut are so slim, but as I built the layers, the shape gained integrity and was not so delicate. The remaining stamped dies were cut to allow the claw to slide along the top of the machine, attached to the Slider Element by a small piece of cardstock, the mechanism hidden by the top layer. I adhered these and placed the hook with Slider Element into place. I considered placing some shaker items into the space, but realised this would compromise the slider from running smoothly as they would get in the way, so decided against this. I then adhered a sheet of acetate to cover the area so it would resemble a glassed in claw machine and adhered the top layer to the machine.

To assemble the card, I diecut two rectangles with a die from My Favorite Things Blueprints 21 from Neenah Classic Crest 80lb Smooth Solar White Cardstock and one from a sheet of designer paper from Lawn Fawn, Perfectly Plaid, Fall 6x6".  I placed one of the Neenah rectangles and the plaid rectangle piece one on top of the other and cut them diagonally with my paper trimmer. I then adhered matching pieces of the rectangle onto the second Neenah rectangle, coloured the top Neenah piece with a copic marker and I stamped the sentiment from Lawn Fawn, You're Claw-some onto this piece before adhering it directly onto the card base. I placed the claw machine onto the card, added Tonic Studios Nuvo Crystal Drops - Glitter, Blue Lagoon onto the stamped hearts and Ranger Glossy Accents onto the joy stick controls and around the drop zone of the machine.

Thankyou for following along with me today. If you cannot find the items I have used (listed below) in the Auzz Trinklets and Crafts store, be sure to drop Neha a message via email or Facebook and she will do what she can to order the product in for you.

DT Kerry - Play to your strengths

Hi everyone, my name is Kerry and I'm very excited and feel privileged to be on the Auzz Trinklets Design Team. I hope you find some inspiration from my work.
I was asked to "play to my strengths" in this theme so after much contemplation, I decided to go with stamping. It's something that I do in almost all of my projects, whether that be a card, scrapbook page or pocket page. I love stamps and love to use them. One of my most favourite companies to ink up at the moment is Lawn Fawn, and recently they have come out with so many adorable ones. They make it so easy to create a whimsical and fun project.

I cut some Bristol Smooth Cardstock with Lawn Fawn's Stitched Rectangle Die and blended Distress inks to create the space background. I then splattered some white Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolour splashes and drew on some stars and dots with a white gel pen to give that Galaxy effect.

After using my Misti to stamp out my images I coloured them with Copics. I coloured in the spaceman's helmet with Wink of Stellar glitter pen and covered it in Ranger Glossy Accents and put aside to dry. Using Lawn Fawns Fancy Box die I cut the box out of black cardstock and adhered some acetate for the window.  I just love how these cute little boxes are just perfect for a gift card or a few lollies.  I'm going to put some silver star sequins in for a bit of added surprise!

I just love all these new innovational dies that assist you in putting together a little creation with ease.

Another new super fun die is the Lawn Fawn Scalloped Box die. I haven't had this die long, but I can tell I'm going to use it a heap!

I cut pieces of Lawn Fawn Watercolour Wishes and pastel Perfectly Plaid cardstock. I then cut out some grass and flowers from the Lawn Fawn Grassy Border and Lawn Fawn Flower Border dies and colour blended them using Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron Distress inks and Copics. Once assembling the box I moved onto the other elements.

I created a clothesline full of baby clothes with the Lawn Fawn Little Bundle stamp set and added a fairy and flower from the Lawn Fawn Fairy Friends stamp set plus a snail from Lawn Fawn Gleeful Gardens.


I propped up the fairy to make her look like she is floating with some clear acetate, embossed the greeting with some Embossing Powder and adhered all the little pieces in to finalise my card.  A couple of little clothes pegs adds a little extra cuteness but these can be left off if you are mailing the card. 

Enjoy your weekend and happy crafting!

DT Teresa - Stencils

Hello!

Our fun theme this month sees us playing with stencils. I own a number of stencils but have not used these great tools as often as I should, so I have really been looking forward to this month!

This card uses Neenah Classic Crest 110lb Smooth Solar White Cardstock for the base which is cut with a paper trimmer at 4 1/4" x 11" and scored with a teflon bone folder at 5 1/2" to make a top folding card of 5 1/2" x 4 1/4".

I took a piece of Strathmore Bristol Smooth cardstock cut at 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" and taped it onto my work surface to prevent it from moving and placed the My Favorite Things Stencil - Waves onto the lower half of the piece and taped it in position also. I then swiped Gina K. Designs*Thermoweb Turquoise Sea ink over the stencil with a Ranger Blending Tool, creating an ombre effect as I applied the ink more softly towards the bottom of the piece. 

I removed the stencil and then did the same with the Tim Holtz Rays Layering Stencil on the top half of the card, this time using Barn Door, Spiced Marmalade, Fossilized Amber and Scattered Straw Distress Ink. I die cut this piece with the stitched rectangle die from My Favorite Things Blueprints 13 using a Sizzix Bigshot Machine. 

Using Neenah Classic Crest 80lb Solar White cardstock, I die cut the larger sized Lawn Fawn Say Cheese, Again polaroid frame and cut another frame with Turquoise Sea cardstock from the Gina K. Designs*Thermoweb Island Dream collection. This gave me the blue I needed to place inside the frame. Before cutting the Turquoise Sea cardstock however, I used the My Favorite Things Stencil Waves once again. After taping in place, I used Thermoweb iCraft Decofoil Transfer Gel, smearing it over the stencil with a small craft spatula and placed aside to dry. Once dry, I foiled the piece using Gina K. Designs*Thermoweb Fancy Foils Turquoise Sea with my Heidi Swapp Minc Machine. As my background had a distressed feel, I decided to distress the foil a little too with a Tim Holtz Retractable Craft Scratcher.

I stamped My Favorite Things Seaside Seagulls with a Misti stamping tool in Memento Black ink onto Neenah Classic Crest 80lb Solar White cardstock, diecut and coloured the images with Copic Markers. I stamped the sentiment onto the polaroid frame from the same set using Hero Arts Black dye ink. 

To assemble the card, I adhered the stitched rectangle diecut background onto a slightly larger rectangle piece cut from Gina K. Designs*Thermoweb Turquoise Sea cardstock with a paper trimmer using Kokuyo Glue Tape Roller. I adhered a slightly smaller piece of scrap cardstock behind the polaroid frame and placed the Gina K. Designs*Thermoweb Turquoise Sea cardstock square insert foiled piece to this within the frame and stuck the frame to the background piece using 3M Scotch Foam Tape. I popped the seagulls into position and finished off the card with some Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear Sequins in 4mm and 6mm, adhered with Ranger Multi Medium Matte.

Thankyou for following along with me today. Please feel free to ask questions if anything needs clarifying. If you cannot find the items I have used (listed below) in the Auzz Trinklets and Crafts store, be sure to drop Neha a message via email or Facebook and she will do what she can to order the product in for you.
