Publication Layout (with Instructions) - Kaisercraft Base Coat

Hello Crafty Friends

Today I'm popping in to share a Layout that was published in Creative Papercraft Magazine.  The layout features a photo of Nicky taken at the beach a few years ago.  This Layout was actually simple and fun to make.  I have included the instructions below.

Mix Impasto and White paint together and spread over Abstract Triangle Template onto ABSTRACT ART (Reverse).  Allow time for this to dry.  Ink edges of ABSTRACT ART (Reverse) with black ink.  Stamp Script Background Stamp onto base page.

Cut METAL PANELS into rectangles and ink edges with Black ink.  Layer rectangles horizontally and vertically into middle, right-hand side of the page.  Splatter Charcoal Kaiser Mist over the page. Layer some cheesecloth over the top of the metal panels and then two photographs.

Choose a title sticker and stick to the left-hand side of layered rectangles.  Cut several arrows from black card using Arrows Decorative Die.  Position these around the layered rectangles.

Paint Wooden Flourish Coggs black and glue around cluster of layers.  Embellish with a scattering of black pearls.

I kept the embellishments pretty simple - arrows and coggs mainly.

I love this template with the abstract triangles.

The Kaisercraft clear stickers are perfect for adding a quote onto layouts.

Hanami Garden Publication ~ 3 Layouts with Instructions

Hello Crafty Friends,

Awhile ago now I had three layouts published in the new Creative Papercraft Magazine Issue 4.  The theme was "Around the World" so I used Kaisercraft's Hanami Garden Collection.  This first photo and the last photo was taken by a friend of mine who had just recently visited Japan.  This middle photo is of my cousin in Bali. I tried to make three different layouts with this collection and they had to be different to the ones I had already made for Kaisercraft.  Each have instructions if you would like to re-create them yourself.
