Fine & Sunny

Hi everyone, Sandra here.  This week I got to choose my own project for the Design Team.  I thought I would share a gift set that I have been making for a friend.  I decided to make a small trinket box with her name on it as well as a matching mini canvas and gift card. 

Kaisercrafts Fine & Sunny Collection has been sitting in my stash for a little while now, so I dug it out and couldn't wait to get started.  I love using all the little collectables that are part of the collections now. 

Here's the little box (15cmx15cmx7.5cm):


This is the mini canvas (10cmx10cm):

 The gift card (8cmx8cm):


The complete set:


I'm really pleased with how it turned out....I hope my friend is too!


Papers used:  Fine & Sunny Collection
Cardstock:  Kaisercard - Island & Apple

Embellishments:  Fine & Sunny Collectables

Paint:  Kaisercolour Pretty Pink

I hope this may inspire you to try using Kaisercrafts Fine & Sunny Collection.... for all your scrapbooking and papercrafted supplies, please check out Kerry's online store  http://www.kerryscraftycardsandcuts.com.au/store/

21st Birthday Card (Attitude Collection)

Hi all, just wanted to share the card I made using this month's Design Team Challenge layout. I've always found it difficult making cards for boys/men but with the use of Kaisercrafts Attitude collection and this challenge, it made it easy for me to create this card for my cousin's upcoming 21st. Hope you like it!!

Miss Match - OTP

Hi this is Sandra and here is my first OTP project for Kerryscraftycardsandcuts Design Team.  I am so nervous and excited about this first design and writing this blog. 

Kerry has a fantastic online store, where you will find the collection below as well as so many other gorgeous goodies, so make sure that you pop over and check it out.

I chose to make Kaisercrafts Desk Tidy, hoping that it will inspire me to "tidy" my scraproom!! 

I love the new paper collection Miss Match from Kaisercraft, the colours and florals are beautiful and have a vintage look.  As I was working on this design, I was already thinking of all the other things that I want to create with this collection.  I hope that my design inspires you too!

Hi all.  I've got a few spare minutes (before the kids come looking for me!!) to show you my crafting haven!!  Before starting PinkPossum Designs last year, I claimed a little nook in our study for myself.  The space isn't huge but I have used every spare inch of it and slowly I've claimed the rest of the study too!  Having only a small area to work in, can be totally frustrating sometimes but it has also helped me be more organised!  Organised...mess!!




I love my new Ikea cube storage shelf and my little miss nearly 2, loves the hanging pockets on the back of the door....she loves to arrange my gems & bling!!

My very talented hubby has also played a part in PPD's craft room.  He has custom made me lots of my storage units etc.  He is out of action at the moment, so my little to do list for him has to wait for now!!

"MUUUUUUM"..........oh no, they found me!  Oh well, better sign off for now. 

I won't be away for too long...as shortly I'll be posting my very first project for the Design Team at Kerry's Crafty Cards and Cuts!  So excited!!
