Porcelain Rose Cards

Hi all.... I'm back today with just a couple of cards from the Porcelain Rose Collection.

I'm still bumping along with my 'Love' theme here as I really need more cards for weddings/engagement etc as well as Romantic ones. 

Birthday ones come easy, but this kind are bit less common!

Anyway, as always I kept them quite simple but I'm still really enjoying working with these papers. I love all the soft pinks, and the collectables pack have  heaps of frames and journaling squares in it that are perfect for layering things up like on the card below.

Layering has certainly come into it's own element in the last few years and I must confess I could probably do with some more instruction on the technique myself.

The Brisbane Paper Craft Expo is coming up soon, I might book myself into a class or two there to gain some more experience in this area! LOL

Have a great day, Smiles from Kel.

Saturday Sketch #1 May 2013

 Todays Saturday Sketch is a busy one! I've used the Porcelain Rose Collection again this time.

I rarely do pages with this many photos on it and it was a bit of fun to put together this arrangement!!

I stuck with the busy theme and kept lots of movement on the page as well as keeping as closely to the original sketch as I could. I also gladly took up the journaling challenge ... I think it's important to do this kind of page every now and then, and really tell the story.

Anyway, this is the sketch it's all based on...

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers from Kelly-ann.

Porcelain Rose Layout

Today I'm introducing the beautiful new Porcelain Rose Collection from Kaisercraft.

This is a divinely beautiful collection that is full of delightful bird images... this sort of thing is HUGELY popular at the moment all over the world in scrapbooking circles of course and I'm really happy to see Kaisercraft is quite able to follow suit! LOL

On this page I have used the speciality Die cut paper sheet as my main feature, and this this paper is nothing if not special!! Apart from the gorgeous frame the original paper has the gorgeous flowers and bird already printed on it and highlighted with rich gloss varnish  The music notes and other floral background images are also already printed on the paper.... how beautiful it is and how easy it was to work with. I basically just added the photo, a journaling pannel and some 3D flowers.

I love it when paper makes your job so easy because sometime when it comes to scrapping I just want to kick back and enjoy instead of working for every element on a page.

Thanks for popping by for a look.

Cheers from Kel.
