CLUB La-La Land Crafts November Kit Reveal

 Hi everyone! Today I am revealing the Club La-La Land Crafts November 2020 Kit! It's time to start creating our winter cards.

                 (*images are skewed to prevent piracy)

My first card includes images from both stamp sets and all the dies included in this kit. Here I created a Winter hillside scene with Marci with Sled and two bears from the Bear Hugs Stamp Sets. Both of the cards I created use the Blue Christmas Paper Pack.

All images are colored with Copic markers. The Winter Houses were cut from red and green cardstock. The card used foam adhesive tape to add dimension to the images and Snow Banks. The Fence on a Hill is tucked in behind a snow bank. The sentiment I used is "may your days be BEARY & BRIGHT".

 Hi everyone!  Get ready for the holidays. Here are some cards featuring products from the

 Kat Scrappiness November Release. 


This card is dedicated to all the Disney lovers out there. The brand new Christmas Shaker Ornament Dies are fabulous. I used the circle ornament to mimic Mickey Mouse's iconic head. This coordinated perfectly with the Magical Holiday Sprinkles, which include Mickey shaped heads in white and red. The paper is part of the release as well, Cuppa Christmas Slimline Paper Pad, perfect for slimline cards and as well as other smaller sized cards.


Here is the video over at the Kat Scrappiness YouTube Channel 

Next card I have for you is using the Forest For The Trees Slimline Die. This makes a scenic woodland backdrop for your cards. The gorgeous paper is from Sugar Plum Fairies Slimline Paper Pad and coordinates well with the Sugar Plum Fairies Sequin Mix.


The colored trees are from the Merry Critters Stamp Set. You'll also notice some Kat Scrappiness Tools featured in the photos. There is an Embellishment Tool, an Embellishment Tray and the Sequin Organizer. All products used are listed below.

I created this slimline card using the Ink On 3 Fox & Bunny Hugs Stamp Set. The frame of the shaker portion is from Kat Scrappiness Foliage Frame Slimline Die. The kraft cardstock is inked up with the Atelier Twiggy Brown Fusion Ink Pad. I combined the other two colors Bee Sting Yellow and Marilyn Red to create that glow and blended background. I love the autumnal colors. Great color scheme to celebrate a birthday this season. The shaker window is filled with Kat Scrappiness Harvest Sequin Mix and 4mm Gold Heart Sequins. Lastly, I laid down Kat Scrappiness Gold Jewels on the bottom right corner as an added embellishment.

Penguin Palace - Never Lose Hope

 Happy Wednesday! Today's card is for Penguin Palace Stamps using the Summer Blossom Stencils 360°™  with the Stencils 360°™.


I've been on a sunflower kick lately. One look at this Summer Blossom Stencil and I thought, hey that can be a sunflower LOL. So this is what I created. Using three ink colors (Walnut Stain, Spiced Marmalade, Fossilized Amber) this is the ink blend I came up with. On the Stencils 360°™ I followed the triangle symbol guide (45° Interval), this is the pattern that was created. I splattered a brown colored spray to add some interest to the background. Using the Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangles Die, I cut the pattern off centered to the right.

The flower shaker part of the card was created using a mix of the Words From The Heart (Chapters 1 & 2) and the Warmest Wishes and Heartfelt Notes Coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts to create the frame. The Never Lose Hope Shadow Die was cut using black cardstock. I wanted the sentiment to pop. The shaker is filled with round brown sequins. Last embellishment is this heart sprinkle centered on the heart.

Club La-La Land Crafts October Kit Inspiration

Hi everyone, welcome back! Today I'm sharing more projects using the October 2020 Kit from Club La-La Land Crafts!

  The first card used both stamp sets (Marci with Apples/The Apple of my Pie). All dies were used minus the large apple (Apple) die.


I sat at my desk and just started playing around with the cut die cut pieces of the dies and came up with this sunflower. After several goes with the die in my die-cutting machine, the end result was magnificent. The stem of the flower was made using the two hill dies in Double Stitched Hills Border Die. The background was created using the Daisies on my Mind Layering Stencil. Marci is placed on top of the Apple Orchard Die cut and holds one of the cute hedgehogs from The Apple of my Pie Stamp Set. 

All images are colored with Copic markers and the sunflower center and leaves were inked up with Distress Oxide Inks (Walnut Stain, Fossilized Amber, Dried Marigold). I used the die Apple Pie to mimic the center of the sunflower and layered a Double Stitched Circles Die beneath it. The sentiment "so thankful for you" is from Marci with Apples Stamp Set and it is on one side of the Build-a-Frame Stitched Small Die. Lastly, this whole scene is laid out on two Scalloped Rectangle Dies.

Apple:

Additional LLLC Products Used:

For my second card, I can't help but use both stamp sets from the kit, they go so well together. This time around, every die included in this kit was used.


So my sunflower creation makes a cameo, this time it represents the sun rising/setting. The Apple Pie die is used for the center of the flower. Again, I chose to use the Daisies on my Mind Layering Stencil for my background. The Apple Orchard Die was cut three times and layered at different heights. The little apple mini die in the Apple Orchard Die was used on the trees. The Apple Die peeks out from one of the hills. The sentiment "I love you to my core" is from The Apple of my Pie Stamp Set and is on one of the side dies from Build-a-Frame Stitched Small Die

The images are colored with Copic markers and the sunflower die cuts were inked up with Distress Oxide Inks (Walnut Stain, Fossilized Amber, Dried Marigold). I used a white gel pen to highlight the Apple Die. I used two of the four hedgehogs in The Apple of my Pie Stamp Set that are holding apples.
