Hey there, crafters! Svetlana, Janna, Genevieve and Leanne are here today to share some Cockadoodledoo Beyond The Page projects with you. We hope you guys will have as much fun with Cockadoodledoo as we had!

“Angel” by Janna Werner

Janna Says:

” This angel is such a gorgeous BTP project. It looks fabulous on any shelf during christmas time and it is easily decorated, using Cockadoodledoo, for example.”

Genevieve says:
“I had so much fun creating this calendar which is dedicated to the birth of my grandson in Februrary 2012! His mom can insert a new picture of him each month. It will be very cheering to see at the end of the year all the evolution of this little baby! It will become an album that he’ll keep for a very long time! It’s easy to create with all different chipboards, collectables and rub-ons… a true pleasure! I hope that you’ll have the same fun that I did!”

Svetlana says:

“I made this mini-album as a gift for my friend. This little book shows the first year of her baby boys life. Cockadoodledoo Collection couldn’t be a better choice for this type of project. All the cuteness of the paper and lovely embellishments allow for a lot of fun when working on a project like this.I used chipboard as a base for this album. I cut it myself in the size I needed.  To give the background an interesting and a little distressed look, I used some white acrylic paint diluted in water in a sprayer. Then I covered it with distress ink and gave some extra spray with glimmer mist. Here is a few details of the album as well as the back cover.”

Leanne Says:

I absolutely love the sweetness of this range.  Such a fun and happy collection to play with. I am sure you are going to have hours of creative enjoyment with this range.

Hello Kaisercrafties! Svetlana, Janna, Genevieve and Leanne are here one more time to show you Beyond The Page projects using Madame Boutique collection. Do you like this fabulous range as much as we do?! Let´s have a look!

“Romantic Journal” by Janna Werner

Janna Says:

“I so much adore the Madame Boutique collection, it is so romantic.  I chose some of my favorite papers from the collection and sewed them on a journal.”

Genevieve says:
“I’m in love with this collection! These  die-cuts Collectables give me a lot of ideas…   I think that my mother who often did needlework for us will be very happy to receive this frame! I added the Dress Form to give my project an exceptional feminine touch! As you can see, the corset is made with a die-cut from Collectables: the heart.”

Materials used:

Svetlana says:

“The new Mini Drawers being only 15 cm high are soooo cute! I made a tiny treasure chest which can be used for rings and some other small pieces of jewellery. I glued together some of the drawer to give my project a more unique look. I used Stazon ink to stamp a lamp post on a piece of transparency paper. I glued it only to the bottom drawer which allows me easy access to the upper ones.”

Leanne Says:
“How divine is this range of papers?! They are so feminine and so much fun to work with. The papers work really well with vintage photos and lots of distressing.”

“Snowman” by Janna Werner

Janna Says: “Merry Medley is a fabulous collection that can be taken for winter or christmas projects but also during the entire year. I chose to create a mixed media canvas, creating something that you can hang up on your wall is so much fun ”
