Hi crafty friends, I have a project to share with you today, it’s a bit more distessed/grungier style of card. I stamped Sugar Nellie – Worried with Stazon – Timber Brown a few times and 3D’d the image and coloured the stamped image with Distress Inks. I cut the first 3 layers out with Spellbinders – Nestabilities/Classic Ovals & Shapeabilities/In Spades Pendants to mount the image on.
Cardstock and paper I used for this project are, Stampin’ Up! – Early Espresso/Designer Paper Neutrals Collection/Designer Paper Parisian Breeze and basic white card.
Happy Crafting!

Hi Crafty peeps, Just a quick project post from me today. I have been busy this week behind the scenes, tweaking bits and pieces here on Crafty Treasures and also taking photo’s, amidst everything else. Here is a sweet card project, I would like to share with you all.
I stamped Penny Black – Rain or Shine twice, onto some white card stock with Marvy Matchables – Dye Ink/black. I coloured the first image with Copic Markers (but did not colour the umbrella). I cut the first image out with Nellie Snellen – Multiframes/Circles and did some piercing around the outer edge. The second image I only coloured the umbrella and only cut the umbrella out (this was then adhered to the first image with 3D foam adhesive). I also stamped DoCrafts – Woodland Folk (the tiny mouse), Stampscapes, Kaisercraft – Flora & Fauna/Bird, Grace Taylor/Word. This was mounted onto Provocraft – Paper Symphony/Crafters Block 1 papers. I punched with EK Success – Binding Edge Edger Punch and machine stitched around the outer layer and made some flowers to embellish it.
Happy Crafting!

Hi craftin’ peeps, have a peek at this. My son Rhys came up to me with this gorgeous box this morning, my jaw dropped. I immediately thought I could fit lots of crafty goodies inside this for my Craft room. Isn’t it funny as soon as most crafter’s see anything that may hold craft in any way, we immediatly go into storage mode.. hahaha! I know I did!
He sat there anxiously waiting for me to open it, I was still too busy picking my jaw up off the floor!
So I started untying the lovely ribbon on top and lifted the lid off………….. wait for it!
You still with me……..
Yes he made me a gorgeous decadent mud cake covered in and mouth watering ganache and a ribbon band around the middle and also writing and fancies ontop, the writing had little sparkles in it, bit like glitter : )))
The base had a lovely silver band around it as well……
Now for the taste test…..
This has to be one of the best mud cakes, coated with the most yummiest… Ganache, I ever have tasted and the base had the slightest crunch, absolutely gorgeous and sooo moist. If you have never tried Ganache, it beats icing or frosting hands down, I am converted. This boy can now cook…yayyyyyy! I asked him what’s for dinner hahahaha, I had no luck with the cooking dinner request. He did have some help with the finishing detail and accessories. I think this is very special for Mother’s Day, I just had to share this with you all.
Thankyou Rhys and Sharni : )) Big Hugggggggggs
Hi Craftin’ peeps, I have a lovely project to share with you all today. It’s a hidden message card, and the hidden message inside is a small poem I wrote! I was experimenting with this same embossing folder again!, and thought this was a great idea especially for this embossing folder. This card originally did not start off looking like this!! It took on another direction as I was making it, I had planned to make this one in soft tones, but ended quite bold. I did have another idea previously, but this is what I finished with.
I used a Stampin’ Up – Manhattan Flower/Embossing folder, hinged for the top layer. I layered this onto some Kaisercraft – Weave/Aloe , inked around the edges with Tim Holtz – Distress ink/old olive. I stamped the Rose word and printed my poem onto the same piece. I layered this onto Stampin’ Up! – Designer Papers/Neutrals then onto Ginger Blossom and also Walk in the park (which I spliced it into 4 panels), these were all mounted onto some black cardstock. I embossed extra panels for the top and bottom with Couture Creations – Walrus & Carpenter/Embossing Folder.
Happy Crafting!

Hi Craftin’ peep’s, it’s been a busy week here! I made a lovely card project to share with you all today. I used one of Stampin’Up’s! gorgeous: Textured Impressions/Embossing Folders/Manhattan Flower. It’s such a elegant design and so much fun to work with.
The first layer/s I embossed the Stampin’ Up! – Embossing Folder /Manhattan Flower and coloured it with a few different mediums on the “reverse” embossed side. I stamped some leaves from a See D’s stamp set – Springtime and coloured them with Copic/Markers and cut these out. I stamped on a piece of white cardstock Happy Birthday/Clear stamp/word and some butterflies from Prima – Shabby (green leaf)/Clear stamp set. I adhered the cut out elements onto the stamped white cardstock.
The final layers I used Stampin’ Up! Designer Paper/Neutrals and Ginger Blossom and cut two Spellbinders – Shapeabilities Dies/Floral Accent and used these as corner accents with some Kaiser pearls.
Happy Crafting!
