How to make the cloud effect - the Kaszazz way :-)

 Here's the materials I used to make my clouds from the Spring card.

• 4862 Scallop Punch
• TIM27188 Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Tumbled Glass)
•  9014 Card Pack Basic white
• 4654 Scissor (4.8cm Blade)



• 4913 Sponge
• 1708 Super Tape - 50mx6mm double sided adhesive 

Punch out a scallop from white cardstock and cut in half. Attach the other half of the scallop to the other half with double sided adhesive (as shown). Leave some of the adhesive exposed; put your finger to the adhesive so that when you apply your distress ink the clouds won't move and it will make it easy to lift the clouds template.

Apply the distress ink to the sponge and pounce the sponge at the edge of your clouds (as shown).

There you have it, nice and easy :-). Hope this tutorial does make sense..LOL. I am still studying on how to work our video cam and hopefully soon I will have video tutorial instead of instructions (distructions)... LOL!

Have fun and be safe!

Rick-Rack design from a Square Punch

Happy Friday everyone!

Question.... do you have any other usage with your square punch? If yes I would love to know what other way you can use your square punch. No...here is a little idea and I hope it can be in a good use.

What you need:

Square Punch
Cardstock or SB Paper (your choice)

Align the end of your cardstock/SB Paper from corner to corner of your square punch, as shown.

Continue the punching process to the length your require. Alignment is the key ... LOL.

This is what your finish product looks like - hope the instructions make sense, if it doesn't let me know :-).

If you want to see this RICK-RACK in action see this card.

Have a great day and once again thank you for your visit - TOHDOHLOH!!

Transforming clear rhinestones to colored

What you need:

Re-inkers
Sponge
Clear Rhinestones

1. Put a drop of re-inkers unto your sponge (depending on how depth your color to be you can add more drops or re-inkers).

2. Dubbed or Pounce the sponge unto your rhinestone until all rhinestones are covered with re-inkers and you get the color that you like.

3. Put aside to dry (for at least couple minutes or if you are impatient like me you can use your Heat Tool Gun). Thats It!
 

There you go how easy is that? If are going to try this technique I would love to see it:-). Click here if you want to see the technique in action.

Once again 'till here for now... hope you drop by again soon.

Please feel free to leave me a comment or a message that would be nice :-)

How to make a Paper Rose

Hi Bloggers,

I must confess I have been addicted to making paper roses lately. I just love it because I can make it whilst watching TV with my family. It is so easy and fun to do. I will try to show how I make this rose but before I start I apologize in advance for poor photography; my daughter and my son were my photographers during this "rose making" experience. Ow! also apologise for the condition of my nails I just finished making cards and I have been using lots of Distressing...a big apology for my fat fingers too.... lol.
