La-La Land Crafts July 2022 Release - Day 2

Today it is a Day 2 of the new release showcase from La-La Land Crafts. For my card I chose an image of a rhino shilling next to the pool from the set called Sunshiny Day.

Today is the Day 1 of the showcase and my card is featuring 'Marci with Pinwheel' rubber stamp:

I love this stamp! Marci is just adorable with her long hair and the pinwheel having fun at the carnival.

Ticket Shaped Bookmarks with Wax Seals

Hello!

Our summer is incredibly hot this year! If I don't HAVE to leave the house, I prefer to stay in, be cool and craft :) Thankfully to this kind of weather I had some time to film a short "craft along" video and share with you a process of making the below ticket shaped bookmarks, embellished with wax seals.

I have enjoyed using wax seal in my recent projects! Hopefully, my today's post will inspire you to use wax seals more, too.

I used the wax seals from Craspire. Let me leave the links to the stamps for you here, in case you want to check them out:

Flower Wax Seal Stamps

15mm 2 Sides Mini Brass Sealing Stamp (olive leaf + rosemary)

I have created a digital freebie for those of you who want to have fun with this easy and fun project. Please, do not share the image of a digi itself; if you want to pin it on Pinterest (or share with your friends on other social media), PLEASE provide the link to this blog post. Thank you!

The freebie comes in two versions and I explain more about it in my video tutorial (the link will appear below).

Please, open each image in a separate page/tab and right click to "Save As...".

"Steampunk World" Tutorial - A Journal and An ATC Box

Hello!

Vectoria Designs has released a new steampunk themed collection, called "Steampunk World". It is beautiful!! You can check out and purchase the paper collection here.

In the meanwhile, let me share with you the pictures of a project that I created using this collection.

There is a journal and a box with a couple of ATC cards in it. 

The journal has a shaker on the spine, which I really wanted to fill with cogs. I hope you like the idea!

Side by side the journal and the box look perfect!

Here are some more pictures of the whole set:

There was a really fun element in the cut apart sheets, which gave me an idea to create this faux wrist watch which serves now as a book mark in a journal.

The journal has 3 signatures and I have a flip through available in the beginning of the tutorial. 

I will link it for you at the end of the post.

If you like what you see and want to know how it was made, join me in the tutorial!
