Love Your Pets Kit by Kanban Crafts

Good Morning, I'm officially back to work today and lots of things have been happening over the last 2 weeks and a few more exciting things still to come.

This weekend saw the launch over on Create & Craft TV of the new Kanban Crafts

Love Your Pets 

collection which comprises of some super cute cats, dogs, rabbits & hamsters

Here are the cards I have made with the kit so far.

Even my daughter had a go yesterday whilst on a Teacher training day off school.

A fabulous kit for a Nation of Pet lovers like we are in the UK. No wonder the kit was sell out, even I didn't get the items I wanted as I was too late :(

Happy Crafting to those of you who did get the kit.

Kanban Crafts Weekend Special new Release 'Blooming Marvellous'

Good Evening and wow what a weekend it's already been for the folks at Kanban Crafts

Today we saw Keith and Sue on the shows with the new kit

'Blooming Marvellous'

When it dropped through my door this week I was so excited the colours and patterns are gorgeous and so practical for a lot of different occasions.

You can catch Keith on again tomorrow with another of the amazing Design Team Denise :)

Here are the cards I made this week ( we only had just over 24 hours with the kit- so I only managed 6 samples)

It certainly is another stunning new collection from Kanban Crafts which you can catch on Create & Craft TV tomorrow.

Happy Shopping

Kanban Crafts Awesome new Kit - Woodland Friends

I'm very pleased to be able to announce the latest collection by Kanban Crafts is the beautiful Woodland Friends Kit.

As part of the Design Team I get the chance to create with these kits ready for the shows on Create & Craft TV. I had an idea what the kit was like after a trip to the factory recently and in my head a theatre scene was a must. So on Tuesday when the kit arrived I made my own off the cuff Theatre scene using the beautiful elements and here it is.

I used the flooring backing sheet from the kit to make the stage floor box, a pretty backing sheet folded like a fan to create the curtains which I tied a ribbon as a tie back. The top layer is from the same card and I made a folding roof with a die cut frontage to add to the curtain effect.

The inside shot from above shows you the layers or back drops for the scene.

A close up of the layers inside the scene.

I even did shot with the spot light shining through :)

Here are rest of my samples which you should be able to see on Monday on the shows at 4pm & 7pm with Sue & Keith.

The fox card above I have added Glossy Accents on to the red flowers and the embellishments have also been resin'd to give a lovely finish.

As you can see the kit is stunning and has so many uses not just cards but for home décor too.

Tune in to Create & Craft Tv at 4pm for the first show and then again at 7pm to grab your kit and all the lovely extras available to coordinate with it.

Thanks for looking

Kanban Crafts Mish Mash cards

Good Morning, it's a lovely sunny day so far here in the West Midlands and I have some cards to share with you from the last couple of days.

I have been working with some of my older Kanban Crafts stock but also incorporating it with the newer collections.

These above are using a lovely Art Nouveau style lady and background stamp which I have coloured using Letraset Promarkers and on the red & green design I used Woodware Crafts Fluffy stuff to make the collar and cuffs on the coat stand out. Backs are from a paper pad by Kanban Crafts called Well wishes & Celebrations. 

Th next one is using some very cute Teddy Bear Stamps by Kanban Crafts - This set is called Wooly Bears - Rock On. I have coloured the bear with Promarkers and made a stage themed background with the stars from the stamp set and a border with the musical notes from the set too.

Finally we have a mash up of old and new supplies. I have used the brand new Kanban kit called Pretty In Lace which f you follow the link it takes you to the deal on Create & Craft Tv where is was recently launched. Within the kit are these brilliant sheets of frames which you can stamp on perfectly. So I decided I would use the Stamp set called Spring Silhouettes. I have added glitter and pearls to the pattern on the trees for added effect.

Thanks for looking and I hope you find some inspiration in my post today

Hugs
