Mojo Monday#441

 Here is my card for the 

Mojo Monday Blog

with papers and stamps from

Club Scrap Paris Flea Market (March 2016 kit)

My card is not a square card, but a 5,5 x 4,25 inch 

(folded 5,5 x8,5 inch).

This circle with the flower is part of a decorated

pece of 12x12 inch from which the card was cut.

The butterfly is punched out of 3 layers of paper

with a Stampin'Up! punch. I fastned the butterfly

to the circle with a piece of scrappers floss and

a button form the Club Scrap kit.

On the bottomof the card you see best here the two 

background papers. The light pink is from the Picknick kit

and the darker pink is embossed with a script embossing

folder before taped to the background.

The birthday sentiment is from the unmounted rubber stamps

 that come with the Paris Flea markit kit.

Thank you for looking.

Have a creative day!

Club Scrap Blog Hop: Notes from Paris Flea Market

Welcome to the 

Club Scrap Blog Hop

with the

Paris Flea Market kit from March

I hope you arrived here from

Jennifer's Blog

and left some love for her beautiful artwork.

Nowit is my turn.I was so lucky to have a great find

in the dollar stor. This wooden model for

a memo board project that I want to share with you:

You see it is totally ready to be altered.

And this is  the result,but I am quite sure you 

want to know how I came to the end result.

I started with taking a piece of black 12 x 12 inch paper

from the box and puth the bord on top and drwing aline

around it and cut out the shape with a knife and ruler.

Then I took the bottle of Club Scrap bookbinding glue and 

added this to the woodboard and put the paper on top.

With a bottle of black soot acrylic distress paint

I painted the sides black.

Next cover the black paper with the pink design

paper that is cut 1/2 and inch shorter on all sides

and colored the border also with black sooth

distress paint. On top a piece of the gray design

border cut from the grey design paper.

Here you see the finished board with all

it's details and a noteblock in the middle.

Here you see how it looks form behind.

It is best to glue this piece in the holes,

otherwise it might drop out all the time.

A little more about the details.The bird is a die from

Tim Holtz that I used for cutting and I mixed and matched 

the colors fromthe kit.The lovely birdcage charm came

with the kit. The tag on the right started being white and 

I used a few different stamps from the unmounted rubber

stamps that also came with this kit. The pink circle I cut out

from another piece of white paper and added with foam

tape to the tag.

You also see the notepad decorated with a strip from the 

cut aparts. A punched out flower (SU!) with a brad from 

an older kit,but perfect here again! The word notes is

 stamped with a clear alphabet from my stash,

On the left and right of the notepad I added some flowers

cut from the black design paper.

It is also a Tim Holtz die. The flower is fastned to the board 

with a button that came also with the kit. The pink leaves

are cut with a Joy Craft die. Behind the notepad I added

aribbon fromthe kit before glueing the pad to the background.

Here another one of the tags fro the kit. First stamped 

with the french UM rubber stamp and the corner is made

with the stencil that cae with the kit. I tiny pink pearl

from my stash completes this corner.

On the bottem right another bird with in the background

3 of the tiny tags from the kit. I stamped the word notes several

times and here decorated with more sticky pearls.

And here my scrappage for today.

I found this wonderful sketch that inspired me to use for

these wonderful pictures my DD took of the boys dressed

up for Easter.

It is from the 

Scrapping Everyday Miracles blog.

It had to be a masculine look,so I did not add the pink paper,

but with black,grey and white I think I did pretty well.

I used the TumHoltz bird and flower dies. Also more of the 

tagsthat came with the kit. The added white floweris from my stash.

You see her printed "Pasen 2016" which is the Dutch

word for Easter. After printing I added it to one of the

tags and used a fleur the lis stamp from the UM stamps

around it as a border.

The birdcage is from the Tim

Holtz die and decoraed with a piece of paper lace inked

with black ink. The background is a complete

paper lace sheet that comes with the Paris Flea Market kit

and is so much fun to use in so many different ways. 

I hope you looked at all the artwork from 

the Artist Team technique challenge and saw all

the paper lace possibilities.If not, you can still do

so from HERE.

And for more inspiration,please head over to

Happy Easter 2016

Wishing all my friends a very 

Happy and Blessed Easter!

My card today was inspired by the

Color Challenge on the

MHK Design Blog

is perfect for Easter cards.

Want to know how I made this faux

chocolate bunny?

I think I seen this last year (or the year before on

the blog of Tim Holtz). Cut out a bunny with a

die from cardboard. Then take a piece of alu foil

and a bottle of raspberry alcohol ink. Use a blender tool to

add the ink to the foil.

Cut the foil with a seam around the bunny

ald fold it over.

And here you see part of the finished card.

All papers are Club Scrap Paris Fleamarket.

The sentiment is by Stampin Up!

The cup and the egg stamp are by 

Michael Strong,both embossed in silver.

The ribbon and the paper lace are also by Club Scrap. 

Nothing is thrown away,the other part of the 

egg decorates the inside of the card.

Thanks for looking.

Have a creative day!

Saturday card: color challenge

With Easter so close, I had to come up with

something fun for decoration. So how about this cute

table decoration?!

I was inspired by the color challenge on 

the Color Throwdown Blog.

I started with making the little box out of

a 7,5x 7,5 inch of kraft paper. Devide it in 

9 blocks of 2,5 inch to make this box.

Here you see the template I used. Next I cut  4 squares

of 2 1/4 x 2 1/4 inch of ivory paper. I embossed

these with an egg embossing folder.

Then I lightly colored the raised parts with vintage

photo distress ink. and glued these 4 panels

to the sides of the box. 

Next I took a sheet of paperlace from Club Scrap,

I cut of two of the lacy cornersand

thanI sprayed it with moonlight glimmer mist

(I used a box as not to spray everything on my table).

When the paper lace was dry,I added double sided tape, to half of the

middle square part. Then folded it double and this way I had

created a pocket for the egg.

Lay the egg in the pocket and close it with a ribbon.

I used light blue and gold organza ribbon to close the egg bag.

Now I created a watercolor background for'

stamping the eggs on that are embossed with gold.

One large egg and 4 small ones are cut out with scissors.

The small ones go on each side of  the box with a 

piece of foam tape.

The larger one goes on the card. The size of theis card is 

3"x 4" and the egg stamps and these cute chicks

(also embossed in gold and colored with vintage 

photo distress ink) are by Michael Strong.

With a 8 x 8 inch sheet of tissue paper the egg box

decoration is comblete. Can you imagine having

these cute little boxes on your table tomorrow?

Thank you for looking.

Have a creative day!
