3D Trinket Box ~ La-La Land Crafts

2 Comments

Good morning!

It’s Inspiration Friday at La-La Land Crafts with a theme of ‘3D’.

I have never made a circle box before, so before I could start I needed to do a little research on how to do it.  Once I decided on which style I had supplies for, I dove in.  I was nervous to be honest…lol!

I think settling on an image sometimes is the hardest part for me…in the end this adorable little garden fairy from the Love to Garden Clear Stamp Set won!  I have always been drawn to the sweetness of this set.

3D box

I started my project by stamping this little cutie on X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with the following Copic Markers.

~Copics~
Skin:  E13, E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000, R20, R30, R00
Hair:  E55, E31, YR21, E30, E50
Dress:  RV11, RV21, R000, R0000, BG72, White Gel Pen
Wings:  BG11, BG10, R0000
Shoes:  BG72, BG70, BG0000

3D box1

I used the Pointy Flowers Die and Foamiran Foam to create the curled flowers that have stamen centers.  I ran the dies through my die cutting machine using the foam instead of paper, colored them with Distress Oxide inks and then heated them with an iron (with the inside of flower facing the iron) for a few seconds until they started to curl.

Happy Friday everyone!

It’s Inspiration Friday at La-La Land Crafts with a theme of ‘New Release’.

Love to Bake Marci is so busy decorating her gorgeous cakes.  It was recently my birthday so she is technically a little late with my cake…lol!

Life is what you bake of it

I stamped this super sweet image on X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with the following Copic Markers.  I also die cut all of the cake elements out of the same paper and colored them as well.

Life is what you bake of it2

I used the All About Lace Layering Stencil for the center background, lightly blending it with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink to create a soft backdrop.

The ribbons on the cake were created with the Build-a-Cake Die by cutting the pieces and then carefully taping the die up a little bit to create the ribbons.

Laundry…the never ending story

Happy Friday!

From one crazy bird to another

Hello and Happy Friday!

It’s time for a little inspiration from Team Friday at La-La Land Crafts.  Our theme this week is anything goes.

I was drawn to this Birds of a Feather Clear Stamp Set the moment I saw it as I have a tropical bird.  He is a Sun Conure named Tiki, and will be 19 on the 4th of July….and he can definitely be a loud and crazy bird.

crazy bird

This little feathered friend was stamped on X-Press It Blending Card and was colored with the following Copic Markers.

~Copics~
Body:  W5, W3, W1, W0, W00
Beak & Feet:  YR24, Y15, Y11, Y00, E41
Wings:  BG09, BG07, BG05, BG02, BG000, Y0000

crazy bird1

My card is built on many layers using a number of different dies, all with the idea of adding subtle texture.  The patterns that come in the Spring Has Sprung Paper Pack were perfect together.

Happy Friday!

It’s once again Inspiration Friday at La-La Land Crafts.  Our theme this week is to use products from the new release.

Courage Marci is prepared to fight like a girl!  I am sending lots of hugs and hope her way.

Hope

I stamped this little sweetheart on X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with the following Copic Markers.

~Copics~
Skin:  E04, E11, E00, E000, E0000, R20, R30, R00
Pinks:  RV34, RV11, RV00, RV0000, R00, R000, R0000
Grays:  W4, W2, W1, W0, W00
White Gel Pen

Hope2

To create the outside ribbon border I die cut 4 of the Awareness Ribbon Die from pink cardstock.  I place the die cuts upside down on a rotary mat used for quilting which has measurements on it so that I could make sure that it stayed square.  I taped the pieces to the mat using Scotch removable tape so that I could glue the corners together.  Once the glue was dry I could then remove the piece and glue it to my card.

I then die cut the scalloped square using the Scalloped Rectangles Die, partially cutting from both directions, moving the die over in order to create a square.   The Double Stitched Squares Die was cut in the same way so that it fit the size of the opening.

Hope3

I knew I wanted to create a shaker card with the Hope Heart Die, but needed the top of the heart to be a little bit thicker in order to add the double sided foam tape without it being visible.  I knew if I matted the heart it would be just thick enough to make it work.

To create the matting around the heart I taped the Hope Heart Die onto a piece of pink cardstock and lightly traced around the outside and the inside with a fine point pencil and then carefully fussy cut it out by hand.

Happy Friday!

It is once again Inspiration Friday at La-La Land Crafts.  These little sweeties are part of the May new release.  How sweet are these two little sisters from the ‘Hello There Stamp Set‘ waving hello to all their friends?

I paired these little cuties with the window stamp from the ‘Windows and Things Stamp Set‘ in order to create this adorable little house.

I miss your face

All of the elements for this card were stamped or die cut on X-Press It Blending Card and were colored with the following Copic Markers.

~Copics~
Roof:  E47, E44, E43
Siding:  E43, E42, E41, E40

Grass & Topiary:  YG67, YG63, YG17, YG07, YG05, YG03, YG01

Cat:  W5, W3, W1, W0, W00, R20, R30, R00

I miss your face1

To create the siding I die cut several wood grain pieces from the Fireplace Die and then colored them with the colors listed above.  I used a scrap piece of cardstock as a base in which to glue the die cut pieces to, making sure that I left enough room for the window.  the pieces were staggered to resemble how siding is attached to a real house.  For the roof piece I carefully die cut it so that I could get it a little longer using the same die, just extending it in my die cutting machine.

Happy Friday everyone!

It is Inspiration Friday at La-La Land Crafts, and today I am sharing my inspiration using several items from April’s new release.

These beautiful roses, the adorable pocket, and the gorgeous paper all pair so wonderfully together.

Showing your kindness really does make a difference!
