My Creative Scrapbook design
team member Christin Grønnslett is sharing some Limited Edition kit techniques and inspiration today!
Here's Christin:
I guess you are not the only one that faces either one of this:1)
lots of scraps but not really wanting to throw them away and 2) you are
in a hurry, but not really wanting to make something. Well this is the
project for you.
You start up with your kit leftovers. This is what
was left of my August Limited Edition kit before I started the project
of making a small 4x6 card.
Tak out your papers
Start
by cutting your leftovers into different widths and tear the edges of
the side of the papers, not necessarily as straight as possible, uneven
will be just as fine.
Start with the
darkest paper and layer the cards on top of each other, and you can see
that two of the smaller pieces go in the middle. Do not use much
adhesive underneath, and why I will show you in a bit.
You want to add more
layers, I have used the round Artisan and taken the advantage of its
flexibiliy and put pieces on the upper part of the card and the lower
part. Since there are no straight edges it works great. Then add some
border stickers in different sizes and tuck then between the layers.
Now you will see why it's a good idea to not adhere the layers to
tight, otherwise you will have not have space to tuck the extra borders
in between.
As you can see I
have cut the pieces of the paper much wider than the actual card so the
last step before adding more is to cut the edges off.
Finish project. Here I have added the a flower, the stickers are both adhered using 3d foam squares to add a little extra depth.
