Paper Trunk Tuesday

We are kicking off the last few days of August with Paper Trunk projects.

We have had so much fun working with them this month!!! Check out their blog for some more inspiration and DON’T FORGET!!!

YOU HAVE UNTIL TONIGHT FOR OUR COLOUR CHALLENGE FOR AUGUST!

Today we have a layout from  Design Team Member Lydia Jackson. Lydia shares some GREAT tips with this layout using Paper Trunk papers and some BRAND NEW Tim Holtz Kraft-Core.

With the Kraft-Core, the kraft IS the Core! It’s so cool! So, one tip that Lydia shares is that you are going to want to sand your Tim Holtz  Kraft-Core first before you print on it with your computer.  This will allow the cardstock to absorb the ink faster.

AND how fun is that sand castle out of the Tim Holtz Kraft-Core?!??!?!?!  Such a great layout. Lydia really shows off how you can use the blues and greens in this Paper Trunk line.

OH OH OH. And did you see those TAGS???  YES, we have tag! They are part of our Cardmaker Series and come with these gorgeous silver grommets.

Wonderful Wednesday

Boy did we have fun last week! Thank you, thank you for all of your wonderful comments.  Reading them was a lot of fun and we enjoy your feedback. We will post a winner tomorrow of the wonderful give-a-way so stay tuned for that.

I will leave you with to more projects we spotted in the gallery with some Imaginisce and Core’dinations. These are just bright and summery, just like the weather here today!

Here Frei used a fun mix of Vintage Cardstock and Jenni Bowlin Core Impresions on this layout {and take note how she printed direction on her Core’dinations cardstock}:

And this card by Debbie Standard is just loaded with amazing details! From the layered Spellbinders die-cuts, to the stamping and sanding, you can’t take your eye off of this one!

Basic Mondays

Happy Monday!

Today we wanted to share with you some other great ways you can use Core’dinations as your go to cardstock just in case you aren’t convinced yet .

Paula Gilarde has some great layouts where she printed directly on her Core’dinations Cardstock.

Here Paula combined printing on her Core’dinations and she added some Whitewash clouds, too, showcasing how versatile Core’dinations can be for your everyday scrappbooking needs.

And another gorgeous example:
