Epiphany Crafts Blog Hop: Day 4

February 9, 2012 By Kim 33 Comments

Hi, this is Kim Arnold here today!

The Epiphany Crafts products were so much fun to play with! What makes them so great is that because you can add you own paper to them, they can go with any layout that you want. This makes them so flexible and a great addition to your scrappy stash.

For my layout, I have used the beautiful silver setting with the scallop edge to add that extra bit of detail to the “o” in my title. It was so easy to add my choice of the yellow paper behind the bubble cap to create exactly the look I was after.

I have also used the little hanging settings to add my initial and age to hang below the ribbon knot. I used the Pink Paislee Bitty Blocks along with patterned paper under the bubble caps and it worked perfectly! I love the extra personalisation that this adds to my layout. Again, super easy to achieve with the Epiphany Crafts tools.

Epiphany Crafts Blog Hop: Day 3

February 8, 2012 By Felicitas 82 Comments

Welcome to day 3 of the Epiphany Crafts Blog Hop!

Hi everyone, this is Felicitas and this is my very first blog post for Pink Paislee…whoohoo! As the other girls, I also have some projects to show you that were made with the amazing Epiphany Crafts & Pink Paislee products. I love the caps – and the tools are really fun to play with! Because we’re so close to Valentine’s Day, I also themed my projects with love.

Did you see the title of my card? I customized some Epiphany Craft caps to create some graffiti style alphas. Here is the quick tutorial how to make it.

Supplies: Pink Paislee paper stripes (mine are from Vintage Vogue), Epiphany Crafts tool “Scallopes Circle 25″, matching Epiphany Crafts “Bubble Caps”, some cute paper shapes and a black pen.

Step 1: Draw the single types on your paper. If you don’t know which size will fit in the cap, you can punch out an empty shape to get the right height for your types.

Step 2: Place the stripe into the tool and push the bubble cap on the top. Give a good pressure to the epoxy and punch out the embellishment.

Step 3: Almost finished. The paper glues onto the epoxy and for a good long lasting adhesion, I pressed both parts together again.

Step 4: This is it! You can also incorporate some cute flat paper shapes like the red heart in the Epiphany Crafts caps. I really like this effect.

Because I was really in the crafting process, I created another project making customized alphas. This will be hubby’s lunch bag for Valentine’s Day.  ;)

As you see in the last picture, you can also incorporate the “Snow Day – Bitty Blocks” alphas in these bubble caps…very versatile, right? Hope you give it a try and thanks for visiting the Pink Paislee blog today!

See you, Felicitas

February 7, 2012 By Larissa 111 Comments

Welcome to day 2 of Epiphany Crafts blog hop!

Hey everyone! It’s Larissa here with my first blog post as a Pink Paislee Design Team member!!!

Today I want to share a layout I did recently in which I added some cool custom embellishments made with Pink Paislee papers and the Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio tool – a super cool tool that allows us to create unique embellishments with just scraps of paper, a few Epiphany Crafts acessories and some creativity!



Let me give you some tips on how I did these three custom embellishments.

Instructions:

1.       First, stamp desired pattern onto a strip of paper.

2.       Place desired pattern into the tool and position through the viewfinder.

3.       Place epoxy shape through the viewfinder directly onto your image  and press.

4.       Place insert into tool.

5.       Close the lid and press to punch.

6.       Glue it to the charm.

7.       Cut off the handle of the silver charm.

8.       Glue it to the paper rosettes.

9.       Or sew Pink Paislee´s trims to create a beautiful flower.

10.   Here they are – 3 new embellishments!

That´s it! I hope you have enjoyed this tool and tutorial as much as I did! Thanks for stopping by today and don’t forget to come back this week for more Epiphany Crafts projects ideas!

Epiphany Crafts Blog Hop: Day 1

February 6, 2012 By Janna 117 Comments

All this week, we will be sharing some creative projects using Epiphany Crafts products combined with Pink Paislee products! This is Janna here today with two cards to share with you.

I created two cards using some of my favorite Pink Paislee supplies (remember my crush on Pink Paislee’s Ephemera?!) and the gorgeous metal settings from Epiphany Crafts. I love the elegance they bring to any project and they can easily be used as a special highlight, like on the cards I created.

As I chose the round metal settings, I combined them with Pink Paislee’s foam stickers (which I really really love!) and replaced the letter “o” with one of the metal settings. Adding a bit of twine to your project makes it look lighter, and there are so many ways to tie the knot, as you can see I chose the messy style, to lighten up the straight design of my “Love” card.

Hope you enjoyed these little love cards, just in time for Valentine’s Day.

Leave a comment today and EACH day this week during the blog hop for your chance to win a Pink Paislee prize pack! A winner will be chosen randomly at the end of the week from all of the comments. Also visit the Epiphany Crafts website and their blog this week for more ideas and giveaways!

Love Week: Snowy XOXO

February 3, 2012 By Karola 9 Comments

Hello everyone! Karola here with another “Love Week” inspiration for you!

As you know – love has different faces. We love our life partner, love life, animals, nature, motherhood is closely associated with the great love…  It’s so many shades of love, they are difficult to count! My today’s layout is about frosty, but hot kisses, this cute photo of Rose when she playing with snow and sending “snow kisses” to everyone is perfect to cover it with Snow Day collection.

I started with create a background for embellies. I used big cake doily as a mask with a distress ink pad in a color matching the colors of the collection (frayed burlap). Then I cut two large hearts and layered them to create the background for my photo.

Using my Cricut, I cut  ”X” and “O” letters as part of the title, above I put another “XO” created from Wood Shop letters.  In the center of  the “o”, I put a funny accent – Mrs Snowman head. Almost every element is stuck with 3D tape for more dimension.

I used a lots of Snow Day – Ephemera die cuts and used almost every paper from the collection to make a colorful, playful page. Here are more close – ups:

I hope you enjoyed my “snow kisses” layout! Thank you for visiting the Pink Paislee blog today!
