Dt Article - Nauhataivas


 


Tällä kertaa meillä on suomalainen Nauhataivas sponsorina. Omistaja Kirsi kertoo seuraavaa:

Nauhataivaan nettikauppa on toiminut kohta kaksi vuotta, eli 2011 Huhtikuusta lähtien. Olemme erikoistuneet nauhoihin, ja meiltä löydät pitsit, röyhelöt, satiinit ja sametit, muoviketjut ja paljon muuta, valikoimissamme on myös metalli-, kangas- ym.koristeita".

 This time we are so pleased to be sponsored by Finnish Nauhataivas  This is what the owner of Nauhataivas, Kirsi says:

The online shop of Nauhataivas has worked nearly two years, from April 2011. We have specialized on laces, ruffles, satin and velvets, plastic chains and many more. We also have metal, fabric, etc. embellishments.

DT article - Heinikka



Meillä StampARTic tiimiläisillä on ilo esitellä teille Suomessa hyvin tunnettua yritystä.

Heinikka on vuonna 2007 perustettu yritys. Valikoimiimme kuuluvat skräppäys- ja korttiaskartelu materiaalit sekä erilaiset askartelun laitteet ja työvälineet. Nettikauppamme löytyy osoitteesta www.heinikka.fi ja kauppa löytyy Kälviältä, Keski-Pohjanmaalta. Kierrämme vuoden mittaan monilla kädentaitomessuilla Suomessa ja usein osastollamme voi tutustua esimerkiksi uusiin skräppäys/ korttiaskartelu ja leimailutekniikoihin..
        

The StampARTic design team has the plesure to introduce to you all a companyt that is famous among cardmakers and scrappers in Finland.


Heinikka was founded in 2007. We specialize in scrapbooking and card making materials & tools. We begun first as internet based shop only (www.heinikka.fi) and then opened our shop in Kälviä. During the year we travel on many of the Finnish Craft shows and on our stand you can see demonstrations on the latest scrapbooking / card making & stamping techniques.



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

Heini lähetti meille tiimiläiselle ihanat toisistaan poikkeavat paketit. Emme käyttäneet askarteluissamme lainkaan laitteita (kuviolävistäjiä, Big shotteja...) muutamia pieniä poikkeuksia lukuuunottamatta, joten näitä voi käyttää malleina omiin töihin vaikkei sellaisia laitteita omistaisikaan. 

Heini sent to us members lovely and different packages. We made all of these nearly without any machines so you can made your craftings based on these eventhough you don't have example Big shot or Cuttlebug.

This is what I got from Heinikka: lovely papers, Scrapbook Paint, Glimmer Glaze, Die cuts and some really nice Jumb Bookplates:


And this is what I´ve made:




I´ve altered a big box  for all those receipts and warranties  that I never know where to find  when I need them :)...:


A bookplate, think it´s so cool:



The lid:


 And the back side:


I´ve also made a card, quite "clean and simple" since part of the challenge was to craft without the use of machines or "extra stuff" ;) :









I got papers, Mod Podge Brushstroke, Glimmer Mist, Chalkboard mist, Glitter hearts, vintage images from Marianne Design and acetate sheets. I also used Inka gold gloss paints.

Here is what I got to play with.
For example Lovely papers and chipboards from Echo Park- This and That





With the doily I made a boxenvelope
Handcut flower coated with the Glimmer Glam paint. 
The handmade leaves I made with the green paintbottle I got. 
And covered with some glitter.
Got a cool raised effect with that paint. 
It has a small precision tip on the bottle.
So works great both to draw and write with.





Back of the boxenvelope




The card.




Inside of the card. 
The edge with the with numbers works as a 
locking mechanism for the front of the card.
So it says shut.

 

And finally a box in the lovely patterned papers.
