Craftica

Craftica on syksyllä 2007 perustettu askarteluverkkokauppa. Valimoimamme

on 99%:sesti maahantuotu itse. Valintakriteereistä tärkeimpänä pidämme

tuotteiden laadukkuutta sekä pyrimme seuraamaan skräppäyksen ja

korttiaskartelun uusia tuulia ja tuomaan sitä myötä uusia ideoita

paperiaskarteluun. Asiakkaana voit myös olla vaikuttamassa valikoimaamme ja

tuotteisiin. Ota yhteyttä sähköpostitse info@craftica.fi. Meitä voit

We want to thank Craftica for these wonderful packages we got!

Vi har lekt med Fimolera!

Till den här gången har vi enats om temat Fimolera. Ett roligt och tacksamt material som du kan göra massa olika dekorationer till dina kort med. Du kan använda kakformar, trycka stämpelmotiv i lera, använda silikonformar eller varför inte knåpa ihop en blomma på frihand? När leran väl har varit i ugnen är den färdig för den slutliga dekoreringen. Färger, wax, mister eller Perfect Pearls, ja du kan använda nästan vad som helst!

Jag (BellaMio) passade på att göra en video medan jag gjorde dekorationerna till mina kort.

Här kommer ARTsy-teamets fina dekorationer tillsammans med korten.

We've been playing with Fimo clay.



This time we have agreed on the theme of Fimo clay. A fun and rewarding material that you can do lots of different decorations to your cards with. You can use cake tins, pressing stamps in the clay, using silicone molds or why not put together a flower by freehand? When the clay has been in the oven it is ready for the final decoration. Different colors, wax, mists or Perfect Pearls, you can use almost anything!

I (BellaMio) took the opportunity to make a video while I was doing the decorations for my cards. 

Hope you enjoyed it!

Here's Artsy-team nice decorations along with the cards.

BellaMio 

Till det här kortet har jag mistat fram en bakgrund och även använt en del stämplar.

Ramen är av vit fimolera och målat med Akrylfärg och ett lager wax på.

Även de små blommorna är av fimolera.

 Bakgrunden till det här kortet är embossad, mistad och stämplad på akvarellpapper.

En textstämpel tryckt i fimolera och sedan målad med brun och svart Akrylfärg.

May challenge

Summer is coming fast, only one month to go before summer. In the late spring I like especially the new flowers that are blooming after long winter. This months challenge is all about flowers. In May's challenge you can use any kind of stamps or pictures but the flowers you use had to be handmade by you. You can use for example punches and dies for making the flowers, the main thing is that your handmade flowers are in the card.

Kesä on jo kovaa vauhtia tulossa, vain yksi kuukausi jäljellä kesään. Keväällä pidän erityisesti kauniista kukista, jotka nousevat pintaan pitkän talven jäkeen. Toukokuun haaste koskee erityisesti kukkia. Voit käyttää mitä tahansa kuvia tai leimasimia kortissasi, mutta kukkien pitää olla itsetehtyjä. Voit käyttää esimerkiksi kuvioleikkureita tai stansseja kukkien tekemiseen.

The prizes are sponsored by Craftica ja Squigglefly.
 Palkinnot ovat sponsoroineet Craftica ja Squigglefly

So there will be two prizes for this challenge
