Big Top - Lifestyle Crafts April Release
Happy Tuesday! I am so excited to share my projects with Lifestyle Crafts April Release. Aren't they just fun? This is also the first release I designed as a trail design team member:) You can find more dt projects here! I am sharing some new projects here today and some of my favorites with instructions :)
Circus theme is perfect for parties in Spring and Summer! And the Dress Up die is great for any masculine projects! I cannot help but use the Basic Party Picks I won from Paper Crafts Magazine for my last party project :) Scallops are cut with Scallop Punches Die
These invitations are easy for mass production, using Tent and Ringmaster dies.
Place Holders like these will sure bring a smile on a face :) Put the cutting plate at the edge of the feet level to get this partially die-cut look! :) Score and fold the holders after die cutting to avoid lines across the elephant shapes. Using Elephant Cracker and Ringmaster Dies.
Party favors? Score and fold the Tent at top to get this 3D look. (the rectangle box die is a perfect match!)
They can be in the wild and for ladies too! Love how perfectly baby elephant is holding on to his/her mother's tail! (They are from Africa where female elephants have tusks too! Wink!) Using Elephant Cracker, Animals and Ringmaster.
Or some simple note/photo holders: Adhere two small craft pins on the back of the lion face:) I painted the pins with some acrylic paints. Using Animals Die
Or to frame a photo? Ok, maybe just for boys ;) The bow-tie is from the Dress Up Die. How much fun will it be on scrapbook pages? Make multiples and form a border? Maybe I should start scrapbooking? LOL Using Animals, Dress Up and Ringmaster.
Small note cards (3" x 3") to go into a sweetie's lunch box? Using Concessions and Ringmaster.
Graduation cards? We have one! :) I cut the balloon three times on different cardstocks, layered them and added some machine stitches in the middle. The quote mark from the Ringmaster Alphabet die is so cute that I had to use it! Some other fun sentiments can be "What's Up?", "Love is in the Air", "Thank you for the Lift!" etc. No wonder hot air balloons are popping up everywhere, right?;) Using Hot Air Balloon and Ringmaster.
I think my favorite in this release is the Tent. So versatile! Bend it slightly to get this 3D look! Also using Carousel.
I've found the perfect background for it! Sunburst from Splendor printing plates set:
I am in love with the L letterpress look! You can find the tutorial videos here! I used the leftover inks to make several gift tags all at once! So quick and easy!
Whew! That's all for today! I hope that you can be inspired to create some projects yourself! Have fun!
