Hello guys.. Kasia and Tatiana here today with an Art Journal Page.
Scrap studio screams mixed media and art journal to me and I loved using the different elements together with the new Kaiser Mists and Kaiser Ink pads to create this page. .
The colours of the mists are so vibrant and blend beautifully together, leaving a lovely shimmer when dry.

“Travel Book” by Tatiana Yemelyanenko
I decided to create a travel book featuring several of my business trips to Europe.
For my project I chose 6 1/2” x 6 1/2 Let’s Go paper pad, collectables and stickers from this collection.
Everyone loves a little shine and sparkle as we found out with our Sparkle collection.
This month we released the First Noel collection, also featuring many gold foiled elements
which will enhance any card you make – like the one below that Cathy shares with us today.
Along with this collection she has featured the coordinating CLEAR STAMP set and
embossed a number of the images and layered them onto the front of the card.
Continuing with the Sparkle theme in our Rose Gold Week,
today we are sharing How to make this cute Shaker Card by our design team member Cathy McGrath

As I browse all the projects I created for Kaisercraft this term, this layout stands out the most to me. I love the colors, the layout design and most of all the photo of my daughter.

This layout would have to be one of my most favourite Layouts that I have made this year. It was made using the Romantique collection, which I adore. I enjoy creating layouts following this design.

by Kavitha
“Fairy garden” collection is my most favorite this year for its pastel colors and beautiful images.I made this shabby chic layout with the gorgeous die cut papers from the collection
I chose this project because of the photo. It is of my uncle and my cousin’s twin boys. I love the emotions that you can see here and how much ‘poppy’ adores his grandsons. This paper collection enabled me to capture this special memory.

3D Dream Big Frame Decor by Jowilna Nolte
I created this fun dimensional frame using this gorgeous range – Hide and Seek. Perfect for little girls and boys to insert treasures into the frame
adding to the dimensional look.
The little fox head stamp was coloured using Metallic Gel Pens and a layer of dimensional glaze added as a finishing touch.
Stamping directly onto the background below and above a vinyl sentiment cut on my Silhouette machine.
The leaves arrange on top of each other using a 3D silicone adhesive to keep the dimension.
I love how this frame turned out – perfect to make any room a magical place.
I initially started my project with just the hot air balloon, then I decided to alter some wooden blocks that I picked up from Bunnings. The paper pad has so many beautiful images that you can fussy cut. I added some alpha stickers to complete the set. This set would look great in a little boys room.
