Layer it on - using the lfl july card kit

Hi all, hello again:) today it’s about layering. The decoupage sheets that came in this kit make it so easy to make quick dimensional cards. Did I mention i love this kit?!  Luckily, the kit comes with foam squares too. And let me tell ya i used almost all of them!

Unfortunately this kit sold out but you can get some of the goodies there separately and of course more papercrafting supplies in lizi’s shop Here

So here are closeups of the dimension on the cards just by layering the decoupage pieces. Check-it out below: 

 Which one is your favorite? Comment below and let me know. 

Thanks for stopping by and happy creating!

Let’s face it these stamps rock!

Hi all,  i am stopping by today to share the fun stamp set that is exclusive to the june love from lizi card kit. To get all things love from lizi go here.  I have to admit i am still in love with this face stamp set! It is so fun and versatile...i even heard lizi say on her video that she maybe adding on accessory stamps to this set ( yay) . For this card i used my tim holtz stamping platform to ink and layer each stamp to create the face onto white cardstock from the kit.  Then, i used my spectrum nior markers to color in the image . Lastly i fussycut out the card to adhere to my card. Here is a pic of the stamp set and the completed card. 

I stamped the girl body with the bun hair,eyeglasses,tshirt neckline then colored her in

I cleaned her up with more marker and blender pen the brighten her up. after i took that first pic i added pupils as well as a hair bow with ribbon from the june card kit

The finished card below

A lil embossing magic Using the lfl may card kit

Hi all, thanks for stopping by! So glad you are here! Today we are talking embossing. I have to admit it has been a long time since i embossed. I called on my lfl friends to refresh my memory of the tools i needed to heat emboss. Tools you need is a heat gun, sticky ink i used versa mark, a stamp and embossing powder( hint-the last two come in the may cardkit ;) )....so i got right to work i stamp and embossed a bunch of flowers and leaves. To save myself time and not to have to color some in i stamped and embossed on patterned paper to give my images color and depth. Check out some pics here:

After i embossed them i fussycut them all out and set them aside to be ready to decorate my cards with another day. 

I forgot how magical heat embossing is. Make sure to give it a try if you haven’t already. 

Here are some other cards i made with my heat embossed flowers and leaves

Let me know below if you have tried heat embossing.

A lil of my lfl kit process and some stenciling

Hi all, thanks for being here. Today, i
 am stopping by to share with you some of the process i use when creating with my love from lizi kits then we can talk stencils.  Since i am a momma of three and a multitasker i find that working with a kit is so fun! So to maximize my time and creative energy i work on my cards in stages. First after i ooh and ahh over all the pretties in the box i separate it all out. Next i will take all the solid cardstock in the kit and make my card bases. Then, i will take the stamps i want to use and stamp them all out and do any embossing at this point too. Next i look at all the pretty pattern papers and do all my fussy cutting .(these steps are usually done over a few days time doing one task a day) i lastly add all my goodies to a organizer tray so that i can make and assemble cards.  Moving on, i would love to share what i made with the kit stencil.after i stamped and embossed my flowers, I just took

 a red and pink oxide and smudged it through the stencil then added water to blend the colors what was left was a beautiful coral flower. 

Then I took my ink that was left on the stencil and smooshed it onto pieces of white card stock to use as my background for future cards.

Here are the ones i made with the ink smooshed from the stencil onto the white cardstock :

The smooshing was so fun and it inspired those pretty cards. 

The card that i made with my stencil flowers came out so fun too . Check them out here: 

 ok this one i used both the stenciled flower and the smooshed background to pop off the gold punchanella

  

I had a blast playing with this kit!  Share with me your favorite method to tackle the kit below. Thanks for stopping by and happy creating! 

See ya here again tomorrow for another post.
