La-La Land Crafts September 2023 Release - Tales of Oz - Day 3

Hello-hello!

Day 3 of the new release showcase is here and the La-La Land Crafts design team will be sharing their projects with you throughout this whole week. 

My today's project was created for a very special online event that La-La Land Crafts has been having every year - La-La Palooza Craft Retreat. For the past 3 years the event has been virtual and allowed more people to participate in it. 

In the following pictures you can see some of the pages with the most of the die cut elements, as well as the ones with the stamped and colored adorable flying monkeys:

Tales of Oz Paper Pad 

WOZ Stencil Set

La-La Land Crafts September 2023 Release - Tales of Oz - Day 2

Hello!

Welcome to the Day 2 of the new "Wizard of Oz" release showcase. If you missed the Day 1 projects, you are welcome to check them out in the La-La Land Crafts blog post here.

Day 2 inspiration may be found in this post. And now to a card that I have created and wanted to share with you today:

Isn't this new "Glinda Marci" cute? I really like her dress :)

I used one patterned paper from the "Tales of Oz" paper pack for my card background, and then created the second layers using the stencil with the crystals from the WOZ Stencil Set. Before adding distress ink to the crystals, I embossed them first. It's hard to see it in the picture, but the embossed effect is really nice.

As I mentioned yesterday, the Layered Poppies Die are fantastic and will add so much beauty to any card! This time I die cut them from pink paper and used gold foiled paper for the centers. 

Below you can find the list of the products that I used for my today's card:

Tales of Oz Paper Pad

WOZ Stencil Set

Glinda Marci Rubber Stamp

Emerald City Large Die

Poppies Die

Glinda Marci was colored with Copics:

Skin: E04, E11, E00, E000

Have a wonderful day and take care!

La-La Land Crafts September 2023 Release - Tales of Oz

Hello everyone!

It's been quite a break since my last post here on the blog. I am happy to be back :)

La-La Land Crafts have a new release out and this time it is all about the Wizard of Oz. You can check out what's included in the release in the LLLC online store here.

A card that I wanted to share with you today will feature a new "Dorothy Marci" rubber stamp, along with some of the new dies, stencils and papers. You will be able to find the list of the products which I used for creating my card in this post below:

You need to check out the new paper from the pack which is called "Poppy Fields". The designs are so colorful and bright and really beautiful, there are poppies of all kinds and shapes scattered on the pages, mixed with gorgeous rainbows.

A must-have from the release is a "Poppies" Die. Creating beautifully looking poppies fast has never been easier. You can also achieve a more dimensional look by shaping the petals of each flower. In any case they look stunning and very real.

For coloring the stamped images I used Copic markers:

Skin: E04, E11, E00, E000

Hair: E57, YR24, E33, Y23

Dress: B18, B16, B14, B12, B01

Body: E18, E15, E13

La-La Land Crafts July 2023 Release - Candy Shoppe Marci

Hello!

Today I'd like to share the third card that I created with the products from the recent "Sweet" Release from La-La Land Crafts, and I chose to use the new "Candy Shoppe Marci" Rubber Stamp. 

The colors for this card were fully inspired by the colors of the papers from the new "Candy Shoppe" paper pad. 

As I have mentioned in my several previous posts which were dedicated to this July 2023 release, the dies are amazing and super fun to use. The tiny candy jars that come with the candy cart are a miniature copy of the larger candy jars die.

Here is the list of the products I used for my today's card:

Candy Shoppe Paper Pack

Candy Shoppe Marci Rubber Stamp

Candy Shoppe Die

Candy Cart Die

Marci was colored with Copics:

Skin: E04, E11, E00, E000 + R20

Hair: BG09, BG18, BG15, BG13, BG11

Pink: RV09, RV06, RV04, RV02

Purple: V09, V06, V04, V01

World of Flowers - Third Journal for the Junk Journaling Station - Tutorial

Hello again!

I am excited to share with you the third part of the Junk Journaling Station Series of tutorials. Our current journal will be full of flowers, as it features the digital paper collection from Vectoria Designs, called "The World of Flowers".

You can view my previous posts related to this project here and here. In each of the blog posts you will also be able to find links to the corresponding video tutorials on You Tube.

Getting back to "The World of Flowers", here is how my third journal looks like:

I made a see through window on the cover, as well as a pocket with a pull out tag. The spine is embellished similar to the two previous journals. Since we are working on a series of journals here, I wanted all of the books to look related :)

Below you can find the pictures of some of the inside pages (click the pictures to enlarge):

 

 

 

You can watch the journal flip-through on my You Tube channel here - https://youtu.be/HrqjNfzifkE

The tutorial for making the journal is available at this link - https://youtu.be/ZrmYqF27o7M

Our last journal in the series will be animal themed. It will be ready soon! 

Thanks for stopping by. Have fun crafting!
