Heart 14

BeYOUtiful Layout

April 4, 2013 by Kate 2 Comments

Hi everyone!

It’s Kate Vickers here today. I’m excited to be sharing my first project as a Design Team Member here at Epiphany Crafts.

I created this layout using the Round 25 Tool, Round 25 Bubble Caps, Heart 14 Tool and Heart 14 Bubble Caps along with papers and tags from Elle’s Studio.

I used Elle’s Studio Tidbits from the Serendipity Collection with the Round 25 Tool. I love pairing the Tidbits with the Epiphany Crafts Bubble Caps. The Tidbits are just a tad bit bigger, but they cut down nicely with the Epiphany Crafts Round 25 Tool. Here’s a close up.

I layered a Heart 14 Bubble Cap on top of a Round 14 Bubble Cap and added an enamel dot from My Mind’s Eye. I find that layering adds a lot of interest to layouts.

Thanks for joining me! I hope that you like my project.

Just a reminder that your local Michaels Craft Stores now stocks our popular Round 25 and Square 25 Tools! Pick those up along with the coordinating Bubble Caps, Charms and more!

Happy Valentine’s Day from Epiphany Crafts!

Convo Heart Treat Bags by Audrey Pettit

Supplies:
Epiphany Crafts Heart 25 Shape Studio Tool and Heart 25 Clear Bubble Caps
Epiphany Crafts Round 14 Shape Studio Tool and Round 14 Clear Bubble Caps
Epiphany Crafts Round 14 Silver Brad Settings
Patterned Paper: Pink Paislee, Crate Paper
Dies: Sizzix
Stamp: SavvyStamps
Cello Bags: Stampin’Up
Trim: Stampin’Up, Divine Twine, Glitz, Paper Salon
Ink: Clearsnap, Stampin’Up

There’s something about Valentine’s Day that just calls for Conversation Hearts. I don’t care to actually eat the things, but traditions are traditions, after all. And they sure look cute all packaged up in these easy treat containers.

To get started, measure the dimensions of your cello bags and cut patterned paper to fit, leaving about an inch at the top. Slip paper into the bags, fill with candy, fold down the top of the bag and secure with adhesive. I found that adding paper to the bags helps them to retain their shape as they are filled with candy.

Die cut scalloped hearts from patterned paper. Then cut a window opening in the center of the hearts by running the hearts back through your die cutting machine with a smaller heart die in the center. Save all the pieces.

Adhere largest scalloped hearts to the top of the cello bags. Tie several ribbons together into a big bow and secure with a custom brad made from the Silver Brad Fittings and Round 14 Shape Studio Tool. Adhere bows to the top of the hearts.

Affix smaller hearts to the right side of the larger hearts. Embellish with date strips cut from patterned paper and custom hearts made with the Heart 25 Shape Studio Tool.
Stamp sentiment strips and adhere to the bows.

This is a simple valentine or children’s puppet you can create with a toilet paper roll and a few pretty papers and, of course, Epiphany Crafts punches.

You start with a basic toilet paper roll and you cover the roll with some pretty paper. Once the roll is covered you push the center of the top inward and it forms the beginning for your “owl”. Lastly, by adding a few hearts you can create a cute little owl face.

Are they not the cutest??? These can be so fun to create with your children, too!

Patterned Paper, Transparency and Stickers – Simple Stories Harvest Lane Collection
Mr Hueys mists by Studio Calico

the patterned paper had the perfect pattern for the button 25!

I used the description sheet in the paper pack to create these banners with the banner punch

I finished off the fussy cut stitched banner with a button banner made with coordinating paper.

Gratitude Journal by Lisa Wilkinson

I used so many of the Shape Studio tools to create this cute owl on the cover. I wanted to create a journal that our family can write down things we are thankful for each day from Thanksgiving to Christmas, when we can think about wanting more than giving and what we already have. Simple Stories Harvest Lane and Epiphany Shape Studio Tools were the perfect combination for this project!

Epiphany Crafts Supplies:

Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Tool Round 25
Epiphany Crafts Bubble Caps Round 25
Shape Studio Tool Heart 14
Shape Studio Accessories Heart 14
Shape Studio Tool Oval 25
Shape Studio Accessories Bubble Caps Oval 25

Other Supplies:

Patterned Paper, Transparency and Stickers – Simple Stories Harvest Lane Collection
Mr Hueys mists by Studio Calico

As I was working on my December Daily album for the upcoming holiday, a couple of my girls asked if I could make an album for them as well. When I received the Handmade Holiday collection from Simple Stories I knew it would work perfectly with Lori Whitlock’s 3×3 Box Page Mini Album files to create a December Daily that all of my kids could use!

The file includes a box that holds three of the 5 page mini albums so I used my Silhouette to cut two of the boxes and five of the 5 page albums. Since I had space for an additional album, but didn’t need it, I hand cut a box to fit the extra space.

The additional box was the perfect place to store additional journaling cards for the kids to use when needed.

For each of the albums and box I adhered button stickers from the Handmade Holiday Collection to the Round 14 Bubble Caps and added them to the flaps. I also used the small round number stickers from the collection with the bubble caps to label each page so the kids could locate each of the 25 days quickly and easily.

Here are a few of the pages. They are all very similar and I kept them simple and easy for the kids to use. I added a few cards to each page for the kids to use, but there is plenty of space for additional journaling cards and any photos they want to include for each day.

Christmas Album by Christina Hereen

My kids are excited to get started and I can’t wait to see what they add to the album each day. I know that each of the kids won’t participate each day, but the box style pages of the album will work great to hold all the photos and journaling cards whether one or all four kids add to the album on each of the days.

It’s All in the Details with Epiphany Crafts

November 15, 2012 by Julia 10 Comments

It’s a gorgeous time of year where we see colorful leaves dancing in the air. And today that’s what you see on my layout…. dancing leaves!

This layout has lots of amazing details that all come together beautifully to celebrate…fall!

Fall Layout by Leeann Pearce

Epiphany crafts tools:
EC – Heart 25 tool and bubble cap 25
EC – brad settings
EC – Round 14 and bubble cap 14

Other Materials: Bo Bunny apple cider papers, sentiments stickers and brads, little yellow bicycle chipboard shape and journal tag, twine, wooden beads, wooden mini pegs, studio calico mists.

All the leaves are handmade using a folding technique. I also made that flower. If you look a little closer you will notice the brad on the inside. I used a epiphany crafts brad setting and bubble cap to finish the flower off.

I did the same for the brad on the pumpkins. I love that I can make coordinating embellishments that add those finishing touches.

I also used the epiphany crafts heart 25 and bubble cap. I punched a hole in the heart using a croc-a-dile punch and added the small brad.

Thanks so much
Leeann xxx

Hello Life Layout by Nina Ostermann

To add the patterned paper and silk paper on the card stock I´ve used the Tombow
Mono Dots Adhesive Runner…..

The next step: cutting the triangles and tape them down with the Tombow Mono Vellum Adhesive…

Love to use the sewing machine to highlighting the triangles with stitches…

After cutting the title with my Silhouette Cameo I add the Epiphany Crafts Clear Round Bubblecaps on the Triangles. I like the effect!

Go With The Flow Layout by Tessa Buys

Epiphany Crafts Used:
Epiphany Crafts Round 14 tool
Epiphany Crafts Round 14 bubble caps
Epiphany Crafts Round 14 silver setting

Other supplies:
Tombow Mono Vellum Adhesive
Scrapbook Circle August kit
Rhinestone Stickers: Jolee’s
Glitter: Pink Paislee

Inspired by the Epiphany Crafts silver setting that I used as my main embellishment, I decided that I wanted to add a bit of shine to my page with silver glitter. I used the Tombow Mono Vellum adhesive runner to stick my sparkles. The clear property of this particular adhesive was great for this application because I couldn’t see the glue in the spots that I didn’t add as much glitter to – just the look I was going for!

I love the way the sparkle from the silver glitter shines like the silver setting. Scattered rhinestones and more round bubble caps finish it off.

Pink Paislee is known for their innovative products, amazing scrapbook papers, embellishments, themes and much more!

All this week our Designers are working with the Pink Paislee Vintage Vogue and seaside themed…Nantucket collection.

Designer Emily Branch has created a beautiful set of cards with the Nantucket Collection along with our Epiphany Crafts Tools and Embellishments!

Fibers: (Baker’s twine) May Arts. (Yellow polka dot trim) BoBunny.
Cardstock: (White) Papertrey Ink.

This card uses the Square tool to notch a patterned paper strip and to create contrasting photo corners of rich salmon.
