"Baby Card 1"

Designed by Louise Brigden

 

Products used: Imaginisce "Baby Powder" Collection and K & Company Baby Boy Adhesive Chipboard

Instructions

  • Make a rectangular tent fold card blank.

  • Now cut a slightly smaller rectangle with Imaginisce Baby Powder – Hiccups paper, scalloping the edges if desired.

  • Make a double layered central strip (as shown) and attach it to your ‘Hiccups’ backing paper. Attach a strip of Imaginisce blue ribbon underneath and secure on the reverse.

  • Now fix it to the card base.

  • Punch a row of holes along the top (I used my Big Bite) and thread a strip of the blue ribbon through them as shown. (Remember to use an even number of holes if you want both ends on the same side.)

  • Make the tag with a triple layered oval or circle- scalloping the edges if desired.

  • Add an Imaginisce Twinkle raised dot Giraffe and some Imaginisce Baby Powder blooms, buttons and ribbon and attach to the card base with foam pads.

  • In the space you have left on your central strip add a K&Company adhesive chipboard embellishment.

  • For a finishing touch doodle some hand drawn stitching around the card and tag edges with a pink gel pen.

Products used: Imaginisce "Baby Powder" Collection and K & Company Baby Boy Adhesive Chipboard

Instructions

This card just goes to show that very quick and simple cards can look fab!-with the help of some beautiful products.

  • Make a triangular side fold card blank.

  • Cover it in a slightly smaller triangle of Imaginisce – Baby Powder – Bubble Bath paper

  • Take your choice of K&Company Adhesive chip board, stick it onto acetate and trim around the edges  leaving a 1cm wide strip sticking out the top. Make a 1cm horizontal cut in the top of your card, slot the acetate strip though and attach on the inside of the card to create your ‘springy’ feature.

  • Make a 2cm wide backing strip to go behind your sentiment, fix some ribbon (from the Baby Powder Ribbon and Bloom stack) folding the edges around the back then fix the strip to the card. Stamp your sentiment with the ‘It’s a Boy’ stamp from the Baby Powder ‘Birth announcement’ stamp set. Triple mount it onto layers of Baby Powder paper, trim with scalloped scissors and fix over the ribbon.  Lastly, add two Woodware miniature safety pins to the ribbon.

  • Finish off with a blue bloom,  fixed to the top of the card with a Blossom brad . (these are fab – they  are hand stitched already so it looked like you’ve sewn it yourself!)

Instructions

  • Make a square side-fold card blank.

  • Layer some Imaginisce Baby Powder Papers to cover the top two 2/3 of the card and add a K&Company Adhesive Chipboard embellishment.

  • Make a tent fold mini card to fit onto the space at the bottom of your card – the front face needs to be slightly deeper then the back. Embellish in the same way as the top of your card, with the addition of some Imaginisce Baby Powder Ribbon and bloom brads. Fix it securely to the bottom of your card.

  • Cover the insides of the tent fold flap with some more Baby Powder paper then stamp the ‘Name, Date, Time, Weight and Length’ with the ‘Baby Stats’ Imaginisce stamp set as shown.

Products used: Imaginisce "Baby Powder" Collection and K & Company Baby Adhesive Chipboard

Instructions

Don’t be fooled by this card, it’s surprisingly easy to make.

  • Make a square side fold card blank with some pink Bazzill Cardstock .

  • Double layer some Imaginisce Baby Powder Papers to cover the face of the card, scalloping and pricking the edges for extra detail. The inverted corners are achieved with a ticket punch or the edge of a circle punch.

  • Add the ribbon stem and pink brads – folding the ribbon under your layers before sticking them into position.

  • Now for the windmill; Cut a 10cm square of Imaginisce Baby Powder paper (it’s double sided so it’s perfect for this job). Lightly draw two pencil lines diagonally from corner to corner.

  • Using a craft knife and ruler cut along the lines from each corner, stopping 1cm from the centre each time. Make a small hole in the middle and in the top right corner of each triangle. Bring each of those corners together and poke a Baby Powder brad (threaded through a BP bloom) through all the holes together, finishing with the central hole.

  • Cut a tiny slot in your card in the position you want the centre of your windmill to be. Poke the brad through and your windmill will be firmly connected to you card.

  • Finish off with a rub on from the Imaginisce baby powder – Shake Rattle and Roll rub on sheet.

Products used: Imaginisce "Baby Powder" Collection and K & Company Baby Adhesive Chipboard

Instructions

  • Make a rectangular tent fold card blank and round the corners.

  • Make a slightly smaller rounded rectangle with Imaginisce Baby Powder – Tiny tantrums paper -the dots are flocked and it’s really touchy feely. Add a strip of Baby Powder paper with ribbon attached and folded over the edges before fixing into position on your card base.

Centre feature:

  • Double layer a paper square to fit the centre of your card, scalloping the edges and rounding the corners if desired.

  • I punched a large scalloped circle and cut it in half to make the hill but you could just use whatever you have. Fix the hill into position.

  • Attach a strip of Baby Powder Ric Rac and a Baby powder rub on sentiment as shown.

 

  • To make the characters you’ll need a selection of Imaginisce Snag  Em Acrylic stamps which you need to stamp onto a selection of Baby Powder papers,  cut out the different sections and piece together. Fix Characters into position.

  • I used some pearl brads for the wheels.

  • To finish off you can make some layered corners with left over scraps of your papers and little K&Co chipboard flowers.

Products used: Imaginisce "Baby Powder" Collection

Instructions

  • This project gives you an idea of how you can transform an old item that you might previously considered to be junk. Look around the car boot sales and jumble sales and remember to keep an open mind. One man’s junk is a crafters treasure.

  • My project uses a second hand wooden spice rack that I picked up for 50p!

  • If possible dissemble your wooden object before decorating.

  • Paint any rounded edges that could be difficult to cover with paper.

  • Cut all your pieces of Imaginisce Baby Powder paper to size and stick them to each component with a generous layer of PVA glue. Smooth down and leave to dry.

  • When all of your components are dry, brush or sponge all surfaces with PVA  glue to give a shiny protective layer, Leave to dry.

  • Now just put it all back together again and jazz it up. You could stamp it or add ribbons. I added two big Prima flowers to mine.

Stand back and say Wow!

Icicle Gift Box

Designed by Louise Brigden

Products used: Imaginisce "Baby Powder" Collection - QuicKutz Silhouette Machine

Instructions

This is such an easy project because the Silhouette does all the hard work.

  • In your Silhouette software arrange the icicle box, the tab, a small scalloped circle and some swirl details from one of the flourish designs onto an A4 page (you’ll need to ungroup the flourish design and delete the elements you don’t want).

  • Cut a 12x12 sheet of Imaginisce paper to A4 size and cut your prepared designs in your Silhouette.

  • To make the circular sentiment; follow the instructions in the Circle Card Class but alter the size to fit inside your scalloped circle.

  • Write inside your tag then make sure you slot it into the join of the box when assembling.

  • When the box is assembled attach your layered sentiment with an Imaginisce Baby Powder brad.

  • Lightly ink your paper swirls for a little contrast and glue into position.

  • Finally attach your ribbon handle, this is so easy to do because the Silhouette cuts slots in all the folded areas so you can just thread the ribbon through the central slot in the top tab folds and secure inside with sticky tape.
