Cutting the Cake | Artdeco Creations

#kerriegurney #artdecocreations #ultimatecrafts

Hi Everyone it's Kerrie back with another wedding layout for Artdeco Creations Blog
I created this layout using Ultimate Crafts Rambling Rose Cardmakers Collection Pack
The Cardmakers pack is perfect for creating quick beautiful layouts as it has not only exclusive 12x12 paper designs including quad papers but it also has diecut embellishments and border strips.

to start I cut the center out of this piece of paper to create a decorative border for my layout and this way you you are not wasting your patterned paper and can use the middle section on another project

I cut some of the diecut pieces to tuck into my layers, this is a great way to use up embellishments that you like but the picture on them doesn't go with what you are working on

here is a look at my layers, I have started with a full quad piece and worked up my layers, distressing the edges of all my pieces. The doily peeking out is from the L'Aquarelle Die Cut Doily Set, I just flipped it over to use the white side rather than the blue side.

here is a closer look at my cluster of flowers, these are left overs from my last layout I always colour more than needed then you have them ready for your next project and as I want to do a few layouts from the wedding I know I will use them all up.

a closer look at all the layers, When I can get to my sewing machine I will add a stitched border.
I have kept the layout clean as I really wanted this gorgeous photo of Rachael and Jacob to shine

Rambling Birds Card | Artdeco Creations

#kerriegurney #artdecocreations #ultimatecrafts #couturecreationsaus

Hi Everyone Kerrie here back with another project for Artdeco Creations Blog
April brings lots of special birthdays for my family and friends so I thought I would get a headstart on creating some cards.
For this special card I have used the gorgeous Ultimate Crafts Rambling Rose 6x6 paper pad along with the ephemera packs and wood veneer shapes.
This is actually a quick card to create but looks like it has taken hours

to start off i mixed some of Couture Creations Anna Griffin Pink Pigment Powder with warm water in a spray bottle to create some shimmer spray

I then sprayed some flowers and the wood veneers and dried with my heat tool

I then decided the pick was too soft on the wood veneers and so I embossed them with gold embossing powder, sprinkling in some glitter while the embossing powder was molten to add some sparkle

I then distressed and inked all the edges of all my paper and ephemera pieces and layered them onto my card base. I added a splatter of shimmer spray to the background giving a little shimmer.

next up I layered on my flowers and wood veneers, I layered the larger gold wood veneer bird over the top of the bird on the ephemera tag adding some dimension to it. I also added a bird ephemera piece and layered the smaller wood veneer bird onto it.
