Hi everyone!
Here
are my finalist entries for the Kaisercraft Design Team.
I was sent two
stunning collections to work with, collections that won't be available
until later in the year. I have to say, both were simply gorgeous and
had so many creative possibilities. I was asked to do a layout and a
card for each collection....
so this is what I have done!
Silver Bells Collection
I
am such a 'blue and silver' Christmas girl and fell in love this
collection. It is primarily soft blues and pink with all the nostalgia and romance
of Christmas. I love that the collection features snippets of
traditional Christmas with many gorgeous Santa scenes.
For
my layout I went 'overboard' with glitter...after all, it is
Christmassy! I glittered the background page and used texture paste,
mists and more glitter with stencils to create a trail of stars. Then there were glitter
frames to accentuate the photo and title and lots of die cut leaves. Oh and did I mentioned that I sparkled all afternoon!
"Believe in the Magic of Christmas"
"Exploding Box Card"
I made one of my favourite cards with this collection. It is great for Christmas......full of surprises! When you open the card a box 'explodes' out of the card. Everyone really treasures these little cards and 'Silver Bells' makes it look all the more special.
The front of the card.
Of course I had to glitter the roses!
The back of the card is sealed with a paper velcro closure.
Inside the card...minus the box!
The card and box.

The final side.
See what I mean about the collection, just love it!
Time Machine Collection
Gosh I love the colour combinations in this next collection and am sure you will too!
I have done a cleaner more simple layout to showcase my stunning neice.
Torn paper, lace and Kaisercrtaft dies!
Kaisercraft wooden flourishes, mists, lace and paper pleating.
Kaisercraft blooms misted with Kaisermist to co-ordinate.
Card - "For a Special Person"
I have made a masculine fancy gatefold card with this collection.
The card closed with the punched 'Belly Band'.
The back of the card stamped with kaisercraft stamps and room for a handwritten sentiment.
The card when opened! How gorgeous are these papers and I love that Kaisercraft dies fit many of their paper shapes (oval).
So there are my entries. I do hope you like them. I love to use Kaisercraft products, they are easy to work with and the ranges are so inspiring. What can I say, I would love to be on their DT again...please wish me luck.
