{Clean and Simple} CASology – Foliage

Posted in CASology Challenge, March 2017 by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone!!! It’s CASology Tuesday!! We are back with another Clean and Simple Cue Card just for you!!

This week’s cue card:

Take a look at my card:

While I was at Creativation this year, I stopped by Waffle Flowers booth and fell in love with their flower dies!! I knew I had to collet them all and I did.

Today I’m using the Waffle Flower Crafts Magical Flower die to represent “Foliage”!

I used Distress Oxides Cracked Pistachio, Fired Brick, Fossilized Amber, Worn Lipstick and Spiced Marmalade to add color to the flowers.

Then I used foam tape to adhere the flower to the card front.

Once the die was in placed, I used the Mini MISTI to stamp the sentiment from Sweet Stamp Shop Encourage stamp set on the card front.

To finish the card off, I used We R Memory Keepers Tab Punch Board to round three of the card’s corners.

Nice and Easy.

What do you think?

Posted in March 2017, watercoloring, Where Creativity Meets C9 Blog Challenge by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone!! I’m here today with the Where Creativity Meets C9 Blog Challenge Design Team!! Our challenge this month is Love.

Take a look at my card:

I’m casing Diane Jaquay, take a look at her card:

The colors she used are so pretty, I had to try and copy it. Plus, watercoloring is my favorite type of medium to use.

To create my card:

I used Concord & 9th Butterfly Beauty Stamp Set and Distress Ink Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade to create the multicolor butterflies.
I used the mini ink pads and added the color randomly using both ink pads.
Then I sprayed the stamp with water and stamped the card front.
Once the butterflies dried, I stamped the butterfly body with Clearsnap Colorbox Archival Black Ink.
After that, I die cut the sentiment grateful from Concord & 9th Grateful Leaf Die twice and adhered it to the card front.
Then I stamped the rest of the sentiment using Concord & 9th Lace Leaf Stamp Set using Clearsnap Colorbox Archival Black Ink.

Nice and easy.

What do you think? Please let know below.

Practical Storage Solution

Posted in Deflecto, March 2017 by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone!!! I’m here today to show you another practical storage solution. My go-to craft supplies are stored in one place, so that I can find them when I need them.

Let’s take a look:

kt-stackable-cube-and-interlocking-storage

I used Deflecto’s White Interlocking Craft Storage Tilt Bin – 4 Bins for my all adhesive supplies and Deflecto’s Stackable X Divided Clear Storage Organizer for my hand cutting supplies!!

Let’s take a closer look:

The Deflecto’s White Interlocking Craft Storage Tilt Bin holds all of my favorite Tombow Adhesives.

Here’s why:

The Interlocking System – vertically or horizontally

kt-interlocking-system

Sliding guides on the top of each bin!

kt-interlocking-system-2

Sliding guides on the side of each bin!

The Clear Bin

kt-interlocking-side-by-side

You can see everything you have in one glance.

The Wide Opening

kt-all-bins-open

All of the bins open nice and wide. You can see everything in the bin at one glance. They stay open when in use.

kt-bins-open

Even with everything that’s in the bin already there is still room for more adhesives.

The bins can separate from the base.

kt-squeeze-to-pull-out

Just squeeze the bin and lift it off of the track.

kt-taking-the-bin-out

Super convient to clean and refill.

Mount on a wall or hang on a mounting bar.

kt-wall-unit

Each bin can be mounted directly onto a wall or hang on a mounting bar.

This storage system goes with other storage bins.

kt-interlocking-single-tilt-bin

I’ve paired the Interlocking Single Tilt Bin with a Deflecto Stackable Cube Organizer! I store my cutting tools right next to my adhesives. They just seem to go together.

So what do you think? Will you store your supplies in this manner? I would love to hear from you.

Deflecto products can be purchased at Scrapbooking.com, Amazon and Micheals!

Posted in a2z scrapbooking challenge, March 2017 by Kreative Kymona

Second Post for Today
If your looking for Rubber Dance Stamp Challenge post, click here

Hello everyone!! I’m here today with a a2z Scrapbooking Challenge. The theme this month is Playing with Stencils!!

playing-with-stencils

Take a look at my card:

stencil-hello-a2z

I had so much fun this weekend playing with my Gel Press Plate that I had to create a card using it. I added paint to the gel press using a brayer. Then I placed the plate on top of the card front. After that, I placed the stencil on top of the gel plate. Then I added the ink on top of the stencil using a brayer. I removed the stencil and placed the gel plate on top of the card front creating a textured look on the card front. Then I die cut the sentiment hello out of white cardstock and adhered it to the card front.

Pretty cool!

What do you think? I would love to hear what you think below.

I hope you love what you see and that it inspires you to join us this month. You have the entire month to create a new project and enter it into our challenge. By entering you will have a chance to win a $25 Gift Certificate to the a2z Scrapbooking Store. Winner will be announced on the 7th of April. Good Luck!
