Fool Proof Way to Line up Dies and Stamps by Heartfelt Creations


Hi Everyone,


Well it is warming up here in far North Queensland and summer will soon be upon us. I often have a little trouble when lining up Stamps with Dies and today I am featuring a video tutorial to help with this by Heartfelt Creations. This video demonstrates the Heartfelt Creations technique of lining up the stamps with their dies. You will learn how to create a template to line up a single stamp, how to line up and cut out 12 flowers at once and lining up the stamps with dies that have cut lines on the edges. These techniques will have you die-cutting stamped images in no time!

 

Hope you enjoy this video.

Baby Boy


Good Afternoon Everyone and happy first day of spring to you all. Introducing to you my new Grandson. You will be seeing a lot of him in the near future. I will have to get into the groove with boy pages, as for a long time now I have only been doing mostly girly pages. The paper used in this layout is from the Kaszazz Range - Early Years this being called Prince. The Baby Boy stamps are also from Kaszazz as well as the Pearl Flourish on the top of the page. Using a Martha Stewart punch I punched out randomly two places on the paper, just to loose that square look, although I wanted straight lines on this page, and of course the bow is from my very favourite die - Kaszazz Bow Maker. I seem to get so much use from this die. Flowers are from the Prima Range, and the colour was a perfect match to the paper. On the Baby Boy words I have stamped them out with Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Weathered Wood. A little piece of muslin behind the flowers softened them somewhat. Well I hope you enjoy my page and I hope you have a great first day of Spring.

I also have a second Blog showing pages and cards I make solely with Kaszazz Products. If you would like to have a peek hop on over to www.kerryskaszazzkorner.blogspot.com

Flip-Out Page

Hello Everyone,


I have been rather busy lately with other commitments but today I am featuring a Flip-Out Page I have done on my Dad. This page was done with papers My Minds Eye, and I am not sure the name of them but I think they may have been from a collection called "Lost and Found". I used seven pieces of the different papers in this collection along with a Brown linen cardstock.


Matching Brads and titles were used and different ribbons that matched, laces, ric-rac and rhinestones. I had bought these all together at the time. I also inked their edges of the paper with Tim Holtz, Scattered Straw Distress Ink. This page was rather difficult to do, but I am so pleased with the outcome.



Hope you enjoy this page.

Mum

Hi Everyone,

Today I have eventually got back to scrapbooking in earnest after four weeks break. My page today is based on a photo taken of my mum when she was a girl. Some of the products I have used on this page are as follows: Firstly using a Teresa Collins Damask mask and using my paste which I made from Gabrielle Pollacco's recipe,(posted on my blog some time ago), I proceeded to mask my paper. Then using a La Blanche stamp did a bit of stamping onto the white paste. I then printed off my photos and placed them on my page. Found a piece of old newspaper print paper in my stash and used that as the backing for my photos. All my Flowers are from Petaloo, wooden swirl from Kaisercraft. I found other bits and pieces in my stash like the wooden bottle, resin flowers, a Melissa Frances Chalkboard Charm and a Timeless Chipboard word I then covered with Embossing Powder.
My aim on this page was to use stamps I hadn't used for a while and try and use up bits a pieces I have left over from other pages. The paper I have used is from Blue Fern Studios Montage "Now and Then".




I hope you enjoy my page.

Embellishments

Hi Everyone,


Well it has been four weeks since I have been on my blog, due to the fact that at that time my husband had a heart attack. Thankfully all is well now, and he is due to go back to work on this coming Monday, so today I thought I would show you some lovely embellishments I found on Pinterest these would make a beautiful addition to your scrapbook pages. Hopefully next week I will be back in full force and scrapbooking. I have a new Kaszazz Blog where you can purchase through me any scrapbooking goodies you require. If you would like to have a look at the pages I have designed using Kaszazz Products hop on over to the following link: www.kerryskaszazzkorner.blogspot.com
