PAINT SPLAT BACKGROUND - Card Share

Hi all,

Here is a card I created using the Paint Dabber Splash Technique which is featured in this months "Australian Cardmaking Stamping and Papercraft" Magazine (Vol. 15 No. 7) on Pages 74 - 77.

The technique and cards were submitted by one of our own very creative Kaszazz consultants - Michelle Smith.

When I first saw the cards , the first thought that sprang to mind was kids cards, fun, birthdays....

This techniques creates a very vivid, colourful and striking background with a unique textured effect and is very simple to acheive.

Here is my first attempt at using this technique......

I have used Pool Paint Dabber (ABD22466), Raspberry Paint Dabber (ABD22480), Blue card - Primary Pack (9782), White card (9014), Happy Birthday Script Stamp (4088KF), Cupcake Stamp (4136KF), Cupcake-Stripe SB Paper (4831), Coal Black Ink (72010), Aquacolor Crayons and added some Icestickles to the icing on the cupcake image.

If you would like any more information on any of my projects, workshops, and /or Kaszazz Products, please don't hesitate to email me here, only to happy to help with any enquiries.

Happy Scrappin'

Cheers Jo

ACETATE " Blog Wars " - Project 3

Welcome to today's Blog War Challenge creation.

I inked the Angel Wings (1960) stamp (released earlier this year) with Snow Cap Paint Dabber (ALD22671) onto the acetate and also around the edge of the acetate, stamped the heart image from the Love and Cherish Set (4126KO) onto white card inked with Prussian Blue Chalk ink and cut out.

I added a torn piece of Script/Sky SB Paper (4748) to the inside of the card, and a strip of Cream /Black Diamond SB Paper to the front of the card (4796) and trimmed with some White Grosgrain Ribbon (70550).

Just a hint to hide your tape from being seen on the other side add a small piece or larger piece of SB paper or card behind the area on the other side of the acetate.

Happy Stampin'

ACETATE - BLOG WAR - Project 1

Hi All,

I hope you had a fabulous weekend....Mine was filled with relaxing, gardening and household chores...

Guess who stayed up till 4am this morning watching the tennis ..... But it was well worth watching the Wimbledon Final with Roger Federer and Andy Roddick... play went for four amazing hours and 18 minutes.. With Federers win he became the best Tennis player in Modern history..taking out his 16th Grand Slam title..

So I'm really feeling late night/early morning right now...

Well enough about the tennis and onto today's Blog War Challenge....

This is a quick post and I hope I will get better pics of the cards tomorrow..as Im not sure if it was my eyes that were out of focus ..or because the batteries were going flat on the camera but none of the photos I took looked great so this is the pick of the best, plus the card not being as easy as I had planned in my head didnt help..but the end result was this gorgeous card.

I made an window in the White base card and covered it with acetate, cut a slightly larger window in the PInk Bazzill.

The Butterfly image was stamped in Pool -Paint Dabber onto acetate then cut around with a knife.

I added some Icestickles to the underside of the butterfly wings and added some rhinestones from the Flourish bling stickers to highlight the body, attached it to the acetate window using glossy accents... I stamed the Iris stamp on the inside of the card so it could be seen thru the acetate window and then added the Milestones sentiment.


Here is a picture of the inside of the card...


Ok..I'm off to bed..Night all

" ONCE WAS WHITE " - POW Project 1

Hi Stampers,

I hope you had a fabulous weekend.

Welcome to today's Blog War Challenge - this weeeks theme is more a technique of the week rather than a product. We are doing "Once was White" - its where we take a White piece of Card (or Bazzil) and change it by adding colour. - Sounds simple....doesn't it.

Here is a very very simple card, but I think very effective, its a reproduction of a card I submitted to Kaszazz recently for a "Make & Take Demo". - I just love the shabby chic effect the paint dabbers give.

I have used an Adirondack Paint Dabber - Pool (ABD22466) to colour the background and then stamped the Butterfly and flower image ( 1942LM) and "Life " (4131KI) verse in Walnut Stain Distress Ink.

You could try all different combinations by changing the colour of the Paint Dabber and the colour of the base card - it looks fab on Oatmeal Card Stock...Give it a try......See what different combinations you come up with..

Sorry about the bad photo..the lighting wasnt very good I will try and get a better picture tomorrow, but atleast you get the idea. Keep smilin'
