LOC Cake decorating party

Welcome to the

Layers of Color

Cake Decorating Party!

We have a line-up of fantastic crafting chefs that will inspire you to get into your creative kitchens and whip up some delicious artwork! Our party hostess is Gunn Thelin Knutsen who is generously sharing her cake with us today! Come whet your appetite with her creative paper cake slice boxes that are marvelously decorated with Layers of Color.

This is truly how you can have your cake and eat it too! Enjoy a tasty cake fresh from the oven,

while being creative with Layers of Color, pretty papers, laces, flowers, and even jewelry!

For my project I created a cake slice , I use my Cricut (tags bags boxes and more cart) to cut the cake slice but you can find several templates online to make your own... The LOC stamps I use are: Vintage Roses and Regal Wings for both stamps I use white embossing powder, for the wings I use vellum and Love how it looks!!!I will try that some time soon!

Tasty isn't it? Let's have some more!...You're invited to feast your eyes on the Layers of Color Design Team and Guest Designer's Cake Party treats!

Happy Valentine's Day

Hello everybody, first of all I want to wish you a Happy Valentine's Day ! in spanish: Dia de San Valentin also known as: Dia del Amor y la amistad :)
this first card was published in the March/ April issue of Paper Crafts Magazine, we were asked to create a non-traditional color baby card and this is my creation, papers are from Webster's pages and GCD sticker and rub ons from Melissa Frances.Next a card created for Got sketch, I use GCD papers, old book print, stamped sentiment and that cute image is from the Digital collage called Children
And now one of my favorite mini albums... I created this one using the wood mini houses (love them so much!) some chipboard that I cut myself, shabby chic papers, lace, twill tape, applique wings, and lots of cute stuff that I love lately
Right now I am in love with the soft colors, like the ivory paper, soft blues, pink and greens...
Also with fabric and felt :)
Vintage ephemera from K & Company, rub ons from Melissa Frances
and more close ups of the mini album, right now I am working on more albums, they are one of my favorite projects ever!

Sweet little things...

I have a few things to share with you today, first these 2 creations that I made recently, this card created with vintage image from Bella Ephemera collage, some paper scraps and a cute chipboard button painted and distressed and those pink applique wings that I found on ebay.
Next a favorite of mine!!! oh! this cute mini album with lots of shabby chic style details in mind...
Most of the papers are little pieces that I had around my scrap table, chipboard album is from Melissa Frances...
More of those applique wings... they are so cute :), chipboard letters from Heidi Swapp,
The vintage images are from my Etsy store I use Sweet Baby collage and Baby Collage 01 they are so cute!
I have added more Vintage images in my store, remember: if you buy 4 I will send you one for free!!! (limited time only)
Lots of lace, silk flowers, vintage buttons, stamps, rub ons and lots of sweet details!!!
Some of you have been asking how to print these images, well ... this is what I do: all you need is a color printer (mine is an HP) I have to be honest I do not know about settings and all that stuff... DH is in charge of that :P and I use card stock, nothing fancy is just the one that you can find at any craft store (8 1/2" x 11" sheets) some people said that hey print them in photo paper but I have never tried that before so I do not know how it works, I have heard that you can also print in fabric but I have never tied that ... maybe some day.
And for the girls asking for the wooden spools that I use on my Sew Mini album I have only a few available at my Etsy store, the spools are tiny and they are perfect for mini albums, scrapbook and card making.
And before I go I want to share some great news!! I have been invited to be part of the Design Team of Frost It Pink!!!! how awesome! thanks Amy!! and ............................................ I am part of the Shimmerz Design Team to!!! thank you Stacey... more coming soon ;)
Have a great day!
