Video : How to make a Shaker Christmas Tag / Ornament!

~ lostinpaper ~ 16 Comments

I don’t know about you but I always forget to make my tags… that is until I start wrapping the presents lol.  And this is not necessarily a bulk tag to create but it is perfect for that special person or family.  But it was fun to make so I thought I would share the process with you!

You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.

Video : 2016 Same but Different Christmas Card Series – No 6 – Keeping it Warm!

~ lostinpaper ~ 22 Comments

I’m sad to say this is my last video in my 2016 Same but Different Christmas Card Series for this year. And for my final set of cards I’ve gone with a theme, and today we are ‘Keeping it Warm’.

I was asked to create some ‘warm weather’ cards because you may have guessed that I live in Australia and typically our weather is hot at Christmas. And I know crafter’s that struggle with the concept of snow flakes on Australian Christmas cards, yes, Linda I’m talking about you lol.  This is also the lady you can blame for me starting my own blog and submitting for publications, I feel very lucky to call her a friend and an inspiration.

The best thing about creating a One Layer Card (other than the challenge of creating exactly what you want in only one layer) is that it is easy to post and with crossed fingers it will arrive at it’s final destination in one piece and without any extra postage cost.

I’ll be back next week with the final in this series!

Video : 2016 Same but Different Same but Different Christmas Card Series – No.1 – Wreaths (Six Cards)!

~ lostinpaper ~ 32 Comments

I’m so excited to be back this year with my Same but Different Christmas Card Series.  If you were here last year then you know that this series can contain many different ideas / themes / styles…  well, almost as long as it is the ‘Same but Different’ .

Today I thought I would kick things off with a theme, so lots of different products and every card unique but all with a similar theme and colour palette, all to make creating so much quicker and easier.

Back with another fun image from the Katzlkraft’s Les Jungles set.  I finally got to play with the elephant (the reason that I bought this set) and what a cutie he is, he looks so un’happy’ that it’s his birthday so I thought it was perfect to have a bright cheery card!  I decided to film the process, and there were a couple of hiccoughs along the way….  but you can see those for yourself lol.

Hello Gorgeous with No Fuss!

~ lostinpaper ~ 12 Comments

A quick publication share today (I thought that I had already posted this card but can’t find it… or the card post I pre wrote, so I am not sure what is going on)…. Anyhoo, my card today is all about No Fuss Copic colouring, so I didn’t blend any of the colours and decided to leave just a small highlight by not colouring all the way to the edges.  I made this for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine.  BTW the grey’s do look similar IRL, they just didn’t photograph so well, or was it, I didn’t photograph them so well…  Oh, well.
