Just Imagine Crafts - Kreaxions Punches

Love is .....

Hi Bev here again. I am filling in whenever needed and I 

am totalling enjoying this opportunity to share with you

at Just Imagine Crafts / Kreaxions.

With this card I thought I would experiment with some different shapes 

and see what I could do with them.

With all the fun curves it was possible to punch a whole 

section of the punch but by turning it up side down to punch 

I could see (within reason) where to punch a partial.

I used  Kreaxions #310 around the fun shaped outer 

border for the copic coloured floral.

The sentiments are SRM Stickers which are one of my 

new favourite things to use all the time.

Thanks for popping in.. and hope to see you again soon...

Thrilling Thursday

It's that wonderful time of the week again when you get to see the crazy interworkings of my brain. I just received a shipment of twine so that's where we are headed today.

This old cassette tape carrier has the perfect size slots for twine cards. I'm a twine connoisseur, rather evident from the types of twine represented here, and I love to take mine with me on crops. But who really wants to transport THAT many spools!!! (I assure you my color choices are quickly reaching 50.) The answer is simple, grab an old tape case, cut several pieces of cardstock to 2 x 4.25 inches and follow these quick instructions.

Step 1: Write the name of the manufacturer on one end of the card. Punch the opposite end with Kreaxions Punch # 901 and insert A.

Step 2: Measure out twine if you want exact lengths. Using a yarn needle, pierce 2 holes in the center of the card and lace the twine through.

Step 3: Lay the card over a yard stick or ruler (to keep the cardstock from buckling while you are wrapping) and wrap the twine loosely onto the card.

Step 4: Lace the twine through the punched design at the end of the card. Going through at least three holes will trap the end and you won't need to tie it to the card.

Here is a look at the case all decorated.

Stop by my blog, Scrappin Chaos, on Saturday to get the details.

True Love Card

Hi Bev here today with this fun True Love card.

When you have even a single floral punch there is so much you can still do with it. I used Kreaxions Punch #603 multiple times to go around the circular Kreaxions cut centre  and then did more punches in the corners too. I added a thin circular ring accent, matted the centre circle and added SRM Stickers and sentiments. Matting in print around the centre circle and a different dot paper on the outer corners was perfect.

 

Here is a close up of the back of the paper with the centre circle to start... lines to section off and space placement of the punching .. and the corner markes also. This is really easy and there are stencils to help with this.

 

Thanks for stopping by today.. we would love for you to like us on Facebook and when we hit 275 we will have a single winner. 

Soaking Up the Sun Card

I must apologize for the lateness in posting this today.  With everything that's been happening lately I just missed it.  Sorry!

Today I'm sharing a card that I hope will bring some cheer. 

It's very simple to create this card.  On the left side of the base I used Kreaxions Punch #310 with Template C.  On the right side of the base I used no template.  It gives a bit of character and draws your eye to the punching when you do different techniques like that.  Once I attached the base to the card base, I used my Sakura pen to color in and bring out the punched areas. The paper line I used here is Fancy Pants' Summer Soul Collection.

I hope this inspires you to create your own fun cards!  Happy Punching!  Ginni Gass

Eagle Sighting

Monday, it's the perfect day to think about vacations and beach holidays. I've just got a quick post for you today with some photos from our trip to the Oregon coast last summer.

~ Eagle Sighting ~

The Eagles were pretty skittish so it was difficult to get closeups of them.

To draw attention to the miniscule birds in my photos I used my Kreaxions Circle Cutter to make a bulls eye out of patterned paper. Next I cut the photos into strips and used the layered circles as my photo mat.

Check my blog, Scrappin' Chaos, for a link to the great sketch I used and a FUN challenge!!!

Sher Brown who is American thought she'd surprize us with a Canadian card... we love it... thanks.

Project made in honor of Canada Day. I used the Kreaxions punch to make the beautiful designs in the corner and on the border strip. The Maple leaf was cut on my Silhouette.

I wanted to decorate the inside of the card too. I used the Kreaxions punch again on each of the corners on the inside mat. The words were cut from the Silhouette machine. Thanks for taking a peak.

Charity has this fabulous Memories layout to share.

She  used punch # 915 on strips of cardstock to make tabs to hold the paper memories of my grandfather's funeral.

********************************************************

Ginni has a great Kennedy Space Center layout to share.

She used Kreaxions punch #913

In the close up you see the border and corner punched.

This close up shows the cut-away border and pieces.

*********************************************************

Lisa is up next with fabulous layout celebrating the 4th of July.

I used the Kreaxions 4 in 1 Punch #912 with no insert and punched my border. I took the fall away piece and flipped it over so the other side of the patterned paper shows and added that to the top of the border and then stitched. I choose this punch because it reminds me of fireworks bursting in the sky.

In these 2 close ups you see in detail the border.

Wendi Robinson has a fabulous sports page to share.

She went with an all american theme for my page-- which is baseball.
She stuck with pretty much only using red white and blue on my layout.

She used the Kreaxions Punch #907  on the patterned paper and then layered on top of it.

******************************************************************

We are glad you took the time to pop in on us to celebrate Victoria Day in Canada and Memorial Day in US this month. .. and we loved using Red, White and Blue colours on our projects.

Super Saturday!

Welcome to the weekend!

Lisa here today to share a layout with you.

For my layout "Hello Summer", I used the Kreaxions 4 in 1 Punch #912 for my border with no insert and added some pink patterned paper behind to make it pop and added some pearls on top. I used the circle cutter to make my circles. I also used a sketch by LGS.

 

Here is my layout:

Masculine Card - on this Special Day

Hi.. Bev here today.

We all have those guys in our lives and they still like to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries and many other occasions by recieving a card. Making them cards takes some thought.. the femine cards are so much easier and there are so many available soft, elegant and cute accents.

This is the card I made for my  DS's 40 birthday this month.

I went with darker grey accents, some stitching, brads and the card still needed some punch... yes something to brighten it up. What better than to add red in a Kreaxions Punch #310 as matting. .. and in the lower section of the base of card I cut off just a strip to be matted red also. It was perfect.

A Baby Tag

Hello, All! Happy Wednesday - I hope the sun is shining wherever you may be! Today I have made a tag using Kreaxion's 4in1 Punch 906. 

I started by cuting two inch strips of paper and then making a mark at the middle.  I inserted my Kreaxion's Punch {with no insert} and started to punch, creating a long border... three pieces, in fact.  I put one aside {for later use} and layered the others {trimmed down to the needed size} onto my tag, creating a ruffled look. 

 

Wooden letters and some rhinestone scrolls added a lovely touch, a great addition for a 'girly' shower gift!

Thanks for stopping by - enjoy the rest of your day!
