Craft Consortium, The Emporium, ATC Coins

If you saw yesterday's post you will know that I made a mini storage crate using the new
'The Emporium' release (sold by Craft Consortium).


This is Part 2 of that project...    3 ATC coins that fit inside with plenty of room to spare!







Here's a close up of each coin in turn...






...  plus a look at Part 1 (the storage crate) if you missed it yesterday!

Craft Consortium, The Emporium, Mini Storage Crate


The Emporium (by Craft Consortium) boasts a bountiful collection of beautiful papers and very large wooden bugs, as well as two clear stamp sets, 3 washi tapes, large metal beetle charms and coordinating enamel dots.  


I've managed to use a little bit of everything on this 'two part' project.

Here's Part 1... 




...  and below includes a sneaky peak of Part 2 that I'll share with you tomorrow!








This mini storage crate would be perfect for storing your washi tapes in, too!



Head on over to Craft Consortium or click HERE to see the full range for yourself.

Craft Consortium, Over The Hedge, 'Flip Style' Notebook

I'm ignoring the fact that it is cold, wet and horrible outside!

After all, Spring will be back soon...  



(Just not soon enough)!!!



Here's my take on an old Sizzix die by Eileen Hull that's been treated to some gorgeous papers and ephemera (sold by Craft Consortium).


Thanks for stopping by...






As you can see, I've made a 'flip style' notebook.





Here's a close up of the front cover...




...  and a close up on some of the inside detail...








...  and one final photo that shows a purely decorative edge binding.







The supplies used are all designed by Melissa Lowry in conjunction with Craft Consortium.


Tempted to buy some for yourself?

Craft Consortium, Over The Hedge, 'Swatch Style' Notebook

Notebooks come in all shapes and sizes, so why not create a 'swatch style' version using every paper available from the Craft Consortium 'Over The Hedge' collection..?

That way you'll never forget which paper pad you are looking for when searching for a particular pattern!
(Label the back so you don't forget)!


Here's mine...  just to give you an idea of what I mean...









I'm not going to show you each and every single page.  

Just a few so you can see what I've done!














...  and don't worry.  That big rectangle on the left isn't upside down.  I've just twisted the tag on itself to take the photo!


















Do you like this idea?


I know that some people find it difficult to cut into their paper pads and was thinking that perhaps if they made something like this they would always have a keepsake from it?






Want to have a go and making one for yourself?

Craft Consortium, Over The Hedge, Notepad And Pen Set.

I have the simplest of gift ideas to share with you today...






All you need is a kraft covered notebook and a cardboard pen.







I've used my favourite paper from the 'Over The Hedge' premium paper pad.
Do you have a favourite page?

Simply tear top and bottom, brush on a thin layer of wet glue and weight it down until it is dry...



If you have the time, why not add to this basic idea?

The 'Over The Hedge' collection also includes toppers, stamps and wooden printed embellishments so you are sure to find something to add if you want to...





You could even make an organiser for it to go in?

(See previous project HERE).








Want to see the other designs available in this paper pad?


Click HERE for a few more samples.




Sold by Craft Consortium...   and all good craft shops!

Enjoy your day...

Craft Consortium, Over The Hedge, CAS Card Trio

I'm back today sharing the cards I made to go in the Card Organiser I posted online earlier this week...











As you can see, these are very simple to make! 


One design concept.
Three different looks.
All CAS to some degree or other.




But hopefully a nice way to introduce the 'Over The Hedge' characters to you if you haven't seen them already!




Which is your favourite...  Olivia, Harry or Henry?


*




These little cuties are all toppers you can find on the inner cover of the 12x12 paper pad.






But don't forget, Craft Consortium also have them available as printed wooden characters or as clear stamps.





Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Craft Consortium, Over The Hedge, Card Organiser

I've created a cute little hedgehog Card Organiser to share with you today, using the new 
Over The Hedge goodies that Craft Consortium have added to their store...
















I've used a mix of toppers from the paper pad, those gorgeous wooden printed animal embellishments, some of the clear stamps from the three (yes, three) stamp sets that make up part of this new product line, a few odds and ends from other product ranges that Craft Consortium sell, some die cut shapes from my personal stash, a few hand drawn spiders...  and some inked over Texture Paste to create a mini path!

This is Part 1 of a two part post...  the second half of which I'll include later in the week so that you can get a better look at those distressed cards!

Craft Consortium, Over The Hedge, My Foxy Friend

'Over The Hedge' is the super cute latest release that Craft Consortium have to bring you.

I've used a mix of papers and printed wooden character pieces for my framed scene project today...  along with an 'upcycled' Babybel mini cheese net and some hand drawn 'extras'!






The distressed frame was super easy to make...  just use the 'To My Foxy Friend' stamp and stamp all over randomly using a clear ink pad, then add white embossing powder and use a heat tool to set.


If you look closely you may spot the word 'foxy' added after in a metallic bronze colour, too...  plus a touch of PÄ“bÄ“o Silver gilding wax!







I've used foam pads to add height to this project...  and Stickles glitter glue, too!







I've also used Tonic Jewel Nuvo Drops in 'Grey Mist' to add dimension to those white flowers.

Craft Consortium, It's Snome Time, Christmas Organiser

If you have seen the 'It's Snome Time' range that Craft Consortium has just released you will know it has heaps to choose from!

...  And heaps of stuff means heaps of cards and tags, right?




Here's my idea on how to get organised.  
It could even be given as a gift in itself? 



Do you like my idea of a Christmas Organiser? 
It even has elastic string attached so that nothing can fall out!



 Remove the straps (they slide behind).
Open it up...



...  And you'll see a handy paperclip, plus three charms and some string to tie up your parcels!



Here's a view of the whole organiser...



...  And this is what the inside looks like when empty!



Some 'quick to make' card ideas that you can add bling to or leave just as they are...





A close up of where the tags go...



(The toppers make great quick tags, too)!




...  And one more close up of the inside to finish!






Sorry it's such a 'photo heavy' post!

Want to see a list of the Craft Consortium supplies used?

(This organiser was made using a Sizzix 'Journal' XL Scoreboard die.   Don't fret if you don't have one...  this is just a basic idea that you can hopefully adapt to suit your supplies).




Have a good day!
