Great Outdoors - Kaszazz

 Hello

We have some more great Aussie cards for you. All products used in the making are available from Kaszazz


All backgrounds were created first, on white card, by placing a die cut circle mask (from a sticky note) on to the position where the moon was to be. Distress inks were then blended over the whole area. The mask was removed and the moon shaded in. Scrap paper was torn into a hilly shape and placed over the card to create a mask to shade the ground area. Water was flicked lightly over to create the starry sky.
The greeting, the windmill and the kangaroo were then stamped on the background with Archival ink. A second kangaroo was stamped on to grey card, then fussy cut and mounted in front of the windmill. White gel pen was used to highlight the kangaroos, and brads added to the windmill and the top corner.


This background is was created in the same way, then stamped with the silhouette tree and Silhouette kangaroos across the bottom.


This background is blended in the same way, without flicking water.

The image panels were layered on to black card, then fixed to white card bases.

Have a great day

Big Cats, Kaszazz

Hello

I hope you are all doing well.


These cards were created using stamps, stencils and dies, all available from Kaszazz.

                
For the lion card, the lion was stamped on to 10 x 14.3cm white card, using black archival ink then die cut into a circle. The remainder of the card was then stencilled with the crackle stencil using distress inks, wrapped with knotted twine, then layered on to the card front.. The lion was shaded using the same inks and matted with a slightly larger die cut circle of brown card. This was then mounted over the circle on the stencilled piece. The label was stamped and die cut, then added, along with pearls to the card. The lion's eyes and nose were finished with glossy accents and a hand drawn border was added.

For the leopard card the front panel was stamped with the leaves then shaded, wrapped with twine, and added to the card base. the leopard was stamped on to a second piece of white card, then die cut into a circle. This was then shaded with distress inks and layered on to a larger circle die cut from green card. The image was then mounted on to the card front along with a stamped label and pearls. Glossy accents was again added to eyes and nose.


The tiger was stamped on to white 10 x 14.3cm card, then die cut into a square. The negative card was stamped, stencilled and shaded, wrapped with twine, and added to the card base using magic mount, to form a frame. The tiger was shaded then added to the card into the aperture in the frame. Pearls were added and glossy accents highlighted the eyes and nose.

Kaszazz & Kaisercraft Flowers - Pretty in Pink...


Hello,

Todays' cards have a bit of a light pink theme!

Each background was created using leftover pieces from a selection of Kaisercraft papers. Layered on to the card bases.





Some of the beautiful papers are foiled and some are flocked. I have layered the flowers, using rhinestones as the flower centres and finished off by embellishing with more rhinestones.

Thank you for visiting,
See you again soon,

Inside Box Card

Hello

To create this inside box card I used papers and stamps from Stampin'up, and dies from Spellbinders and Kaszazz.


The front of the white card base is matted with deep red card and patterned paper, and the focal image die cut and layered, was mounted centrally on top with some die cut leaves and a stamped and die cut greeting tucked in.


The inside box section was covered in paper and the centre die cut, with the cut out piece attached to the inside front of the card with a stamped smaller die cut for the greeting. The inside back of the card was papered with a focal panel which was layered on to dark red paper. The box section was taped to the front piece then folded over and attached to the back side.


A die cut lacy border was added. Stickles glitter glue was applied to the flowers inside the box.
Gems and glitter glue were added to the card front to highlight.

Enjoy

A stamped water tank was added, then an inked and clear embossed chipboard windmill. The stockman paper section was mounted across the bottom. Black gems were added to the top corner.
