Family Heirloom Mixed Media Artist Trading Cards

Hello!

For todays blogpost I have created some mini projects for you!

This is a PERFECT way to also use up your paper scraps as I hinted at in a previous post on the blog.
This time I have made some ATC cards ( artist trading cards ).

I was entering a corona cybercrop on Facebook and made Artist Trading Cards for the first time and I really enjoyed it! So I just wanted to do more and since I have so many gorgeous pieces of small papers left this was a perfect way to use them. I used the same technique with layering paper pieces as I did on my tip post earlier on the blog. I love the colors in the Family Heirloom collection and it feels like I can use it all the time. I don´t want to throw anything away really!

For the ATCs I also used this cute butterfly stamps that I colored in different colors to the cards. I wanted them to match but also just be a little bit different from each other. Used some of the glitter washi tape and it really makes them pop with a little bit of glitter on them. Last I also used some white gesso mixed with a little bit of water and just did some splashes over the card. I really LOVE having this splashes on my projects.

I used my old typewriter for the text on the cards.

If you haven´t tried making Artist Trading Cards this is the time for you to try it out I think, using up some of your smallest pieces of papers and stuff.

Personalized DIY Mother's Day Card

Hello hello everyone!

Today I want to show you a Mother's Day card i made for my mother. I actually wanted to do a little bit of a different card this time so instead of using a colored digi or something like that I took a picture of my mother to use on the front side.

She also loves this heather color that is also similar to the color on this beautiful lilacs on the paper so this was a perfect paper to use for her. I did cut out some of the lilacs from the paper and use it as decorations on my card.

Some of the papers are perfect to cut out bits and pieces to use as decorations and so on and that is what I have done on this card. Also on the inside I decorated this card for her. Also used the sweet celebration stamps that has a lot of nice sentiment stamps for different occasions.

I hope you will like it.

Have a nice day!

How to Use Leftover Paper with Malin

Hello hello and welcome back!

Today I want to give you 3 tips on how to use up your left over papers. I know we all have them right? At least I do, and a lot too. Making new projects all the time leaves you with so much paper scraps and then you have just piles and piles with so many beautiful small pieces of papers. And I at least DON`T want to throw it away. Because this beautiful paper does cost money, right?

So I will show you today what I usually do with my paperscraps.
I will also have a video for you on youtube where I show you how I make this small projects with my left overs.

First of all I often use the bigger pieces of my papers and create paper backgrounds on cards. I can also use it for layouts or on my project life cards. But most of the time I make cards and when I use this on my cards I have a bunch of ready to go cards to use and the only thing I need to do is to decorate it for the occasion I want to use it for later on. I do sizes as 15x15cm, 10x15cm and 10x10 cm. This is the most common sizes I use.

The second thing I use the paperscraps for are to making flowers! I love making this easy lollipop flowers, and this is something I can easily do in front of the tv if I would like to! Also a perfect little small project to do when looking at you tube.
I think they are so cute and you can make them with or without glitter. A perfect way of also using brads!

The last thing I use to do is small banners. Small banners that I can use as decorations on both cards and layouts etc. Perfect to use up all small stripes that has been left from my papers that you usually throw away because you can´t use them for so many things.
This - it´s perfect!

I hope you liked this small tips of using paperscraps.
Let us know how YOU use your paperscraps?

Products I Used:
Paperscraps from the collection Family Heirloom and Garden grove.
Different brads from many of the collections.

Have a nice day!

Vintage Inspired Scrapbook Layout

Hello hello!

Today I have been playing with the collection Garden Grove and I made a little vintage looking layout for you. I love this vintage look and I have also used a paper from the Family Heirlooms collection that I did some cutouts from and used as decorations. They fit perfectly well together I think.

I love that you can combine a lot of the papers from other collections into your projects when working on some specific collection. Many can be used as cutouts decorations, I love that!

I made  a very simple and easy layout for this one since I thougt there was so much pattern in the papers and I wanted the photo to pop a little bit.I also wanted to se the beautiful flowers in the paper and don´t put to much layers on it. The photo is printed in sepia to fit with the papers.

 I used the paper with cameras and alphabets from the family heirlooms collection.I cut the cameras out and used as decorations and the letters to build my text.

 I did put on some pearls since they give the layout a little bit of a shine and makes it pop.

I hope you will like it.
I love that this collection can be used for other projects than just easter projects.

Stamp Layout with Malin

Hello everyone.

Today I´m back with a layout for you. The theme is to use stamps so I picked out all of the stamps I recived from BoBunny and tried to make a layout with it, using as much of my stamp as I could to have a nice looking layout. I actually really like it and I think I will be doing many more in this style in the future. It was really fun to play around with the stamps and see, WHAT CAN I USE? I recommend you to take out your stamps and see what you can use, it will probably be so many more than you think!
Create backgrounds, use them as cutouts to decorate with and so on!

I hope you will enjoy it.
