How To Make an Easy Yet Beautiful 3D Paper Rose

Charity here from Scrappin Chaos with instructions for how to make an easy yet beautiful 3D paper rose. This card also showcases Kreaxions Punch #913 with a bit of flair and plenty of pink! For the doily I used the Kreaxions Circle Cutter to to make a 4 inch circle and the Star Stencil assisted me with marking the points to punch. I also
used Punch #604 for the butterfly to the right of the doily.

The spiral 3D paper roses were made from a single sheet of cardstock pictured below.
Find it and the other beautiful papers and embellishments used for this card at The Robin's Nest store.

Directions:
Step 1) Carefully cut a rose along the silver outer edge.
Step 2) Cut that rose into a spiral, using the silver line as a vague pattern.
Step 3) Starting at the center, curl and glue the paper into a rounded shape.
Press the glued surfaces together until the adhesive bonds before moving onto the next portion.

 

ScraPerfect provides the exact adhesive needed for this project. The Best Glue Ever is the just-right bonding strength and the large No-Clog Writing Cap allows you to place a single dot of glue at strategic points.

 

Here is a quick peek at all the design elements I used for this card.

In the US Kreaxions product are available from Just Imagine Crafts.

This card has a 5x7" cardstock base with a 4.5" x 6.5" layer over the top.

Tic Tac Tape

Charity here from Scrappin' Chaos to share a new twist to an old game.

This game is just the right size to play on the coffee table but hardy enough to go along to the next pic-nic. The letters are wrapped with washi-tape. The 16x16 cork board came pre-made from Michaels. It needed only the hash marks, washi tape again, and a snazzy border!

Kreaxions punch #913 has the "X O" motif. I punched 4-12inch strips then trimmed off the scalloped edge. I also used the Kreaxions circle cutter for doilies on the corners.

Flower Doily Card

Hello again!  Ginni here with a card using scraps from a 6x6 pad of paper. 

I used the Kreaxions Star Template and Kreaxions Punch #913 Lily to create the "flower".  I outlined everything with a gold pen, then folded it up a bit to give it the dimension.  I added a cloth brad for my center.  For my background I used 3x3 pieces of paper laid on the card base and drew my stitching with a pen.  The "brackets" are leftover from punching the star stencil.  I just cut them to fit and outlined them with a gold pen as well. 

Materials - Card Base - Recollections; Patterned Papers - My Mind's Eye; Pens - Omni Gel, Sharpie; Brad - Crate Paper

I hope this inspires you to use your own Kreaxions products!  They're so much FUN to play with!  Happy Punching!

Paper Bouquet

Charity from Scrappin' Chaos with you today.
This paper flower bouquet is the latest in bright colors and needs no water.
Check out the tutorial below!

 

To make these flowers you will need a border punch, washi tape, 3.5 X 10 inch strip of paper, 

4 X 6 inch strip of patterned paper, 1.25 inch paper circle, a large gem, and a bamboo kabob stick.

Step 1.

Stretch washi tape on 3.5x10 inch cardstock. Punch the length of the paper with the border punch. Cut 3inch lines between the decorative edges of the punched paper, these will be the petals.

Step 2

 Roll the punched, cut, cardstock into a spiral. Begin with just three petals for the flower center. As you roll the paper be sure to off set the petals so that the flower looks full. The bottom of you flower will look something like this:

Step 3

Cut a 1.5inch circle of cardstock. Pierce a hole in the center, snip a single line from the edge of the circle to the center. Glue the cut edge of the circle back together so that it shapes a cone.

 Step 4

Thread the bamboo stick through the center of the cone, add a glob of hot glue, place gem on top. Be very careful with the flower stem until the glue is completely dry. Place adhesive around the under edge of the cone, thread the stem through the center of the flower. Leave to dry till flower and center/stem are stuck fast.

 Step 5

To cover the awkward look of the flower base fold the 4x6inch strip of paper into a cone. Adhere to base of flower, trim excess.

 

I put this bouquet of flowers together for my daughters latest musical production. How fun it was to give her something out of the ordinary!

LUCKY Banner

Greetings Kreaxions Punchers!

Charity here with a banner that is all about flowers, butterflies, and spring time goodness.

~ LUCKY ~

For this banner I used a combination of Kreaxions punches for shapes, frames, and flowers.

For the L banner I used Kreaxions Punch #913
on half inch strips of patterned paper.

For the circle frame on the K banner I used the Circle Cutter for a 3 inch circle.
I used the Star Template to divide the circle evenly.
Then I attached the 8mm Inner Circle positioning parts to Punch #915, and punched on each line.
I also punched in between the lines to complete the circle frame.
For the butterflies I used bright washi tape on patterned paper and punched them with Punch #604.

For the Y banner I used Punch #916 on half inch strips of paper.

Home Made Doily's are so easy with Kreaxions

 

Hi Bev here today. I am still working on Christmas pages.. and on this one today I using a doily I created using Kreaxions Products. You can purchase the standard white store bought doily, cut the snowflake like doily, even stamp a doily looking accent BUT OMG look how easy it is to make your own and you get to use any of the Kreaxions punches and can also change it up by starting with a circle marked off with the stencils for punch spots or use the star template to follow for punching. This process also allows you to adjust the size required with ease and also the colours.

I used the star stencil and punch # 913 and with the circular shape I used punch #923

 

Here is my finished page using the star stencil with punch #913 to make my homemade doily.

I am sure there are also so many uses for doilys in your creative world.. and these are so easy to make.

Thanks for visiting today.. be sure to visit often when other DT share so many creative and fun ideas using Kreaxions products.
