KAISERCRAFT DESIGN TEAM 2014 ENTRY

A very good day to you wherever you are!

And as my post title suggests, I am applying for the Design team for Kaisercraft for the upcoming year.

For anyone who visits me, you will know that I love Kaiser products and have been using them for a couple of years now.  So as requested by the Kaiser Team I need to do a blog post showcasing my style.

There are 3 things I needed to create for this application and I will list and show them as I go.

We need to show a layout. I decided to show one of my latest layouts using pretty much all Kaiser product.

Time.

Often a paper will decide for me the design and in this instance I allowed that gorgeous corner picture to be a focus, and created a balance for it by adding fussy cut flowers from the same range and placing them around my photo. The collectables are wonderful for adding embellishment too.

My altered item is this box I received on Mothers day with some lovely goodies in it.. It is a strong box and really looks good after altering with Kaiser papers and collectables and chipboard flourishes.

Before..

and after.

and the finished box..

And the third thing I had to create was a mixed media or card.. I did a mixed media art journal page. And I have some steps I took along the way too.

Cover the pages with  paper pieces, some I have torn, some I have cut out.

Then a light covering of gesso.

Then I had  fun with some of the many Kaiser stamps.

Then a little bit of texture paste and a stencil.

and then layer up with collectables and die cuts.

 Well thanks so much for coming by and it would be a dream come true to be on the Kaiser Creative team as I do feel at home using Kaiser products..  (keep your fingers crossed for me!!!)
Thanks for any comments too!
