DT Deni - All About Men 3

Hi, DT Deni with you today.

What a beautiful day it was in a Sydney today, perfect day for washing the car and doing laundry.

I have created a male card today for. Little 2 year old boy, he is a little man in my life lol.

To start with I had a La La Land Crafts Super Hero Luka image on my desk from a previous colouring, he is available in Rubber and Digital Stamp.
I have cut the arrow, the bracket and the building scene from Club La La Land Crafts - January 2016 Kit. These products are now available separately, I will have the individual items linked below.

I have used Doodlebug Design Inc Day to Day 6x6 pad for the patterned paper and American Crafts Cardstock for the matting layers. All the layers have been adhered using Scotch ATG.

I cut the happy word die using W Plus 9 Happy Trio Die out of Canson Cardstock using Sizzix Big Shot and adhered it to the patterned papers using Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Adhesive. I adhered Luka to the patterned paper to start creating a scene. I have cut the Skyline Border Die, the Arrows and the bracket using Canson Cardstock and American Crafts Cardstock which I have adhered using the Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Adhesive.

I prepared some black cardstock using EK Success Powder Tool and stamped the word Birthday using My Favorite Things Adorable Elephants stamp set using Versamark Watermark Ink Pad, I then added Ranger Super Fine Detail white embossing Powder and melted it using my heat tool.

I have cut the number 2 using American Crafts Cardstock and I wrote the ND using Uniball Signo White Angelic Gel Pen, I then adhered everything.

I then added Wink Of Stella Clear Glitter Brush to the Arrow to finish off the card.

Lastly I adhered all the layers onto a Twiddleybitz Card Base using Scotch ATG, I did the same thing for the inside of the card.

I really hope you enjoyed my card today. All Products Used have been listed below, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message via Facebook.

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.

DT Deni - All about the men 2

Hi Everyone, DT Deni with you today.

I made this card for a little Boys birthday using Fireman Luka from La La Land Crafts, he is coloured up using Copic Markers (sorry I don't have these listed as I coloured this one a while ago).

 I have used Stitched Circle dies from Lawn Fawn to cut the circle.

Sentiment is stamped using Clearly Besotted - Sweet Little Sentiments, I have used Memento Tuxedo Black ink and a Lawn Fawn Acrylic Block.

I have cut the number using My Favorite Things By The Number dienamics and just some leftover yellow cardstock.

Papers are from Doodlebug, cardstock are a mixture of Kaisercraft and American Crafts. I have used Scotch ATG to adhere all the bigger layers and Tombow Mono Multi to adhere the small areas.

Thanks for stopping by, don't forget to pop into the shop to pick up the products I have used on my card today atcraft.com.au

DT Kerry - All about the Men

Hi there,

Kerry here today with a, better late than never submission.

I hope everyone enjoyed their Father's Day. Our kids spoilt their dad with a cup of tea in bed and pancakes. He opened all their handmade crafty items they made at school along with this card. His comments were "Ooo it's got lots of sparkly bits....and layers"

Which is exactly the effect I was looking to achieve :) I wanted it to appear as though the plane was flying through the clouds. 

I used Lawn Fawn's Plane and Simple stamp set for the plane and little clouds and the Puffy Cloud Border dies to cut the 4 layers of clouds for the inside of the window and the outside edge.  The Small Stitched Oval Stackable die came in handy to cut the window which I placed a piece of acetate behind to create the shaker.  The Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks blended beautifully to shade a sunset/sunrise background - the colours I used were Fossilized Amber, Worn Lipstick and Broken China.  I just love how the blue and pink blend together to give you that purple hue.


After I had sprinkled in my "Little Things by Lucy's Cards" sequin mix and closed up my shaker, I adhered "dad" to the front.  These were also a Lawn Fawn item, Quinn's ABCs" die cut letters cut from some American Crafts glitter card.


Using the LF Small Stitched envelope die, I carried through the theme with a gift card holder.  I once again used Lawn Fawn products, the Perfectly Plaid Rainbow paper pack.  I continued with the glittery detail by die cutting the "enjoy" to stick on the front and a nice touch with the smoke heart ring on the back.

I hope you enjoyed this card and found some inspiration for a more masculine project.


Enjoy your weekend all!

DT Deni - All About The Men

Hi Everyone!

DT Deni here :-)


Hope all the men in your lives (and those acting as a mutual parent) had a great Father's Day last weekend. I worked all weekend but was able to have dinner with my Dad on Saturday night and celebrated my Fiance's Father's Day with socks and jocks on Sunday night lol. My kids both spent the day with their Dad.

This month we are celebrating "Men and boys", not just Father's but men in general.

I have created a card for a Dad using a Clear stamp from Penny Black and designed by Mo Manning called "Daddy's Shoes". I have loved this stamp for a while and was finally able to get Auzz Trinklets to track it down for me :-)

I die cut a Wonky Window from the My Favorite Things Peek A Boo Wonky Window Die, I wanted to keep the window in one piece so I carefully turned it over and used Scotch Magic Tape across the back. I cut this using Mondi Color Copy.. I was originally planning to stamp over the top and colour with Copic Markers but my idea didn't work out the way I thought it was going to so I had to rethink my design.

I stamped a sentiment from Simon Says Stamp Friendship Messages clear stamps using Memento Tuxedo Black onto the square inlay, I used the Misti Stamping tool to do this as it was already out on my desk.

I ended up stamping the image separately and carefully fussy cutting (using EK Success Cutterbee scissors) it out so I could attach it over the top of my Wonky Window. I stamped the image using Memento tuxedo black and coloured the image using Copic Markers (listed below)

I cut the DAD letters from Lawn Fawn Cole's ABC's and some scraps of Canson Cardstock using my Sizzix Big Shot.

Patterned papers are from Kaisercraft  On the Move Collection paper pad, all cut using Cutterpillar Pro.

DT Teresa - All About The Men

Hello Everyone!

Welcome to our month of celebrating All About The Men! 

I think many of us struggle with creating a masculine themed card and hopefully we can provide you with some inspiration throughout September here on the Auzz Trinklets and Crafts blog.

Bold and graphic are elements I think of when it comes to a masculine design. I kept things fairly simple here as the stamp really does all the work for me on this card.

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 top folding card of 5 1/2" x 4 1/4".

The Concord & 9th turnabout stamps are a revelation. I used the Concord & 9th Triangle Turnabout stamp on this card and it was so fun to play with. There is a little bit of prep to using these stamps, so be sure to check out the You Tube video they have on their channel to learn what you need to do.

I may have mentioned this before, but for all the fabulous techniques that can be done with Ranger Distress Oxide Inks, I simply love stamping with them! For this background I used Wild Honey (yum!), Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans and Fired Brick. I stamped with a MISTI onto a 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" Neenah Classic Crest 80# Smooth Solar White Cardstock piece and trimmed it down to 

4 1/8" x 5 1/2" to fit the card front, bar a sliver on the right where I placed a strip of Simon Says Stamp 100# Soft Navy Cardstock. 

I used the same cardstock to cut a strip for the sentiment and the top piece of the 'stars' word die. The sentiment was stamped in Versamark Ink from My Favorite Things Written in the Stars and heat embossed with Ranger Embossing Powder, White after swiping the cardstock with EK Tools Powder Tool to prep the surface. 

I then diecut the word 'stars' with the Sizzix Big Shot Machine from My Favorite Things Shining Stars using Neenah Classic Crest 80# Smooth Solar White Cardstock and stacked these together using Ranger Multi Medium Matte, placing the navy piece on top and adhering to the card. I then adhered the sentiment strip above and the card was complete.

Perhaps it is unconventional to have not included some stars on my card, but sometimes unexpected can be fun. What do you think?

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!
