Craft Consortium 'Take Me With You' Travel Cases

If you know anything at all about Craft Consortium, you will know that the products they have to offer you are simply exquisite.  

So much so in fact, that I happen to know of crafters who refuse to cut into the paper pads that they buy from this store!

But have no fear, because that's where I (and my lovely band of team mates) come in.

We will cut and chop and glue and stick and (you get the idea..?) 'til our little hearts are as content as can be. 

 So what's the name of this new release, I hear you ask?

Wildflower Meadow.

And if you tune in to Create & Craft on the 7th April, 2018 at 1pm (UK time) you'll get to see the official launch for yourselves. 

For those of you who cannot tune in, I have a 'Take Me With You' Travel Case set that focuses on some of the papers and toppers that this new release has to offer.

It also comes with three clear stamp sets (none shown here today, but stay tuned as I will be sharing more ideas with you over the coming weeks) and a sequin collection that you'll catch a glimpse of in a few of the photo's below...

I do hope that I have managed to whet your appetite enough that you'll tune in to the show if you can.

Did you know that Craft Consortium now has a FB page especially for you to show us your makes?

Craft Consortium MDF Letter Rack

I absolutely adore the Daisy Decoupage Paper Set that Craft Consortium has...  but that didn't stop me from wanting to grunge it up for this MDF letter rack that I have to show you today.

Let me show you just what I mean by 'grunged up'...

Of course me being me, I went ahead and decorated some wooden pegs to go with it.

Did you notice them?

And I'm just loving the effect of using those metal charm acorns to bring in some much needed depth to those flower centres...

Who would have thought they would look so good?

Craft Consortium Pencil/Storage Pot

For those of you who 'do' Valentine's Day...  the day is fast approaching!

Are you the romantic hearts and flowers type or not, I wonder?

Well, for those of us that aren't I've come up with an alternative solution.  

And it doesn't take too long to make or require too many Craft Consortium materials.  

And some of them are still for sale...  so just maybe this'll tempt you enough to go take a look before all the bargains are gone.

(I'll include some links near the end of this post).

I know it's 'only' a pencil pot...  but what do you think?

Of course, it doesn't have to be just for pencils now, does it?

I know for a fact that I've got plenty of craft tools that would be very at home in this little pot of mine!

Who would have thought that this started off as an 'off cut' from a cardboard flue - left lying on the garage floor after my boiler had to be replaced?

Vintage Silver Heart Charms

Santoro - Kori Kumi

A6 Embossing Folder - Hearts

(Out of Stock, but any small heart embossing folder should work equally well.  Use Mirri card, then gently sand on diagonals to get this kind of effect).

Printed Wooden Frames

(I simply painted over one of these with a few layers of white acrylic paint).

Wherever you are, wishing you a happy and safe weekend...
