Tattered Lace Germany Launch Samples

A big update today with samples from the Tattered Lace Germany launch, the dies included the lavish blooms collection, the pansy, poppy, iris, lily of the valley and single fushia dies and also the Tattered Lace alpha and numbers.  I loved making the lavish bloom samples but wasn't as happy with the other flower dies.  I knew what I wanted to do but they didn't turn out the way I had envisioned them.  The sentiments are mostly in German so I apologise if I messed anything up.

Number Rainbow

Really had fun with this one, there are two sizes of TL numbers in the rainbow, however I can't find the link for the larger of the mini die set.

The spots were made using sponge daubers and the erasures on the end of a set of pencils I haven't used yet.

I cut two of each colour for the large 6 and layered them up so you could see the rainbow colours from the side, I think it's fun and gives some dimension to the card.

Beautiful Tattered lace Venetian Collection

Hi, here are the samples I made for this weeks Tattered Lace new releases, the Venetian Collection plus the gorgeous rose from the new Tattered lace mag.

Really beautiful dies again, loving the church, roses and basket especially.  I really felt like getting messy this week so out came my sprays and inks :)  My Silhouette is now speckled red lol!  Hopefully it wipes off!

Church Scene
With this first card I really wanted to use the fern frame as a stencil to make a cloudy sky, the shape really calls out to be used like this so I traced it as I wanted it larger than it would have cut out and then cut the shape by hand, I then used the actual die as a stencil and softly inked the card with an ink duster and blue jeans distress ink to add some cloud shapes.  The church was coloured with Promarkers and embossed with clear embossing powder and backed with some more card coloured with a lighter grey to make it more solid.  I just finished the scene using straight swag and the inner parts of the fern in the Venetian floral.

Victorian Roses
I really loved the shape of the swags and when I started playing with the shapes I really felt I wanted to do something Victorian in style, I've used shades of soft dusky rose for this card and although it took a while to get it how I liked it, I was very happy with the end result.  The swags are embossed with gold embossing powder and the rose and ivy were coloured with Promarkers and then embossed with holographic embossing powder to give them some sparkle.  The  3d rose and small blossoms were coloured with the same Promarkers and the background was coloured with an ivory Promarker to add some texture and then inked with distress inks.  The gold mat was just a piece of card edged with a versamark pad and then covered with melt dust embossing powder in gold sparkle.  The ribbon was also coloured with a Promarker to tie it all together.  The shaped panel was made in Silhouette Studio and then cut on the Cameo.

Masked Ombre
 So I was saying I felt like getting messy, well I certainly managed to make a mess with this card lol!  I used the Venetian Florals to mask areas of the card and sprayed red, orange and  yellow inks on to the card at an angle to get an ombre look.  I then used the pieces I had used for masking to fill up the rest of the card.  The flowery border was made with the Bloomsbury panel which I extended by placing the edge of the die over hanging the edge of the cutting plates so it wouldn't cut right to the edge, I repeated this again so I had one long border.

Spring Basket

Finally a double easel card, I used the silhouette to make the card base, I filled the pretty basket die with lots of flowers from various sets.  The basket was a laser cut as the dies hadn't arrived so I was sent a few laser cuts, I coloured it with Promarkers and as I had some left over leaves in white on my desk I coloured them with a Promarker rather than cutting another piece of card stock.

New Cricut cart arrived :)

Woop! My new cartridge, Rock Princess, arrived yesterday and as luck would have it it was my day off :) Anyhoo, even though I was supposed to be making cards for customers I couldn't resist playing lol!!

This cartridge is awesome, I can see it getting used a lot, there are loads of great images. There are some great things that could be used for guy cards too and some lovely roses which are suitable for any type of card. Well worth investing in I think.

My other favourite cartridge is Tie The Knot, predominantly wedding themed but could be used for all types of occasion, very versatile and beautiful images.

Here's what I made yesterday :)

Used the Rock Princess Cricut cart. Used Core'dinations & also Stampin Up card stock. Ribbon is Anita's. Digi stamp is by Kenny K and coloured with Promarkers and then sprayed with Crafters Companion Spray & Shine.

Used the Rock Princess Cricut cart. Used Core'dinations Black Magic cauldron stack & also Papermainia card stock and a bit of C&C glitter card, ribbon from HobbyCraft.
