Allsorts celebra il suo tredicesimo compleanno! Congratulazioni!!! 😃
Ecco la mia card di Buon Compleanno, l'ho fatta usando una EF DYI!!😄
Le due metà si sovrappongono capovolgendone una, in modo che il pattern si "impili" correttamente uno dentro l'altro (spero che le mie parole siano comprensibili). Le ultime due immagini in basso nel foto-collage sono il risultato dell'embossing e del debossing sul lato opposto. Nella mia card di Buon compleanno l'embossing è a sinistra, colorato con un Distress Ink dopo la goffratura.
Questo sotto invece è un tentativo con una vaschetta di plastica identica alla precedente ma più sottile. Embossing orribile e la EF DYI si è schiacciata tutta. 😞 Evidentemente la fabbrica ha usato lo stesso stampo ma una minore quantità di plastica (lato positivo: meno plastica, leggermente meglio per l'ambiente...! )
Tornando alla card di compleanno: ho usato un timbro digitale Polkadoodles vinto in un challenge, l'ho colorato con le matite acquarellabili e tagliato con una fustella scallop. L'ho incollato sul mio cartoncino embossato. Ho aggiunto alcuni fiori tagliati con vari punches e piccole fustelle da avanzi di cartoncino e un vecchio sentiment brand Lily Of The Valley. Incollato tutto su cartoncino bianco piegato a metà e... finito!

You made a beautiful card, Alice, with your fantastic idea. I do not care if your handmade embossing folder lasts for ever or not. Your idea is awesome and the result it perfect. Great embossed paper and lovely coloring on your cute stamp. Sending you a big hug, my friend.
RispondiEliminaCiao Alice,
RispondiEliminaÈ proprio vero che l'industria alimentare è così dispendiosa negli imballaggi. Qui nel Regno Unito compri ad esempio quattro filetti di pollo e arriva in una scatola enorme che potrebbe contenere 12, quindi molto inutile usare una confezione così grande.
Ma ammiro sempre il modo in cui riciclate la confezione, la mia preferita è sicuramente la scatola del formaggio con le viole del pensiero, che ricorderò per sempre. Ma allo stesso modo questa creazione è così fantasiosa e si adatta bene a Allsorts.
Grazie mille per esserti unito alle nostre celebrazioni per il 13° compleanno.

What a sweet card Alice and I love the little image, beautifully coloured too.
RispondiEliminaYour recycling is always so creative, I love that you've used the packaging as the background, Kate x
What a creative idea, Alice. I absolutely love it and the card turned out so cute! Now I'm off to the recycle bin as I have just thrown a similar package away! Maybe it'll work for me too!
RispondiEliminaThanks so much for the inspiration and for joining in with our birthday celebration at Allsorts!
Beautifully coloured and a gorgeous card.
RispondiEliminaA great way to recycle that packaging, a very sweet card. Thank you for joining us at Allsorts this week.

As always, you've found another creative way to recycle items we normally toss in the trash. Good thinking and great skills in using those plastic throw aways! Your water coloring with pencils is so cool, and as always, I love all the pretty little flowers you added to make this a sweet birthday card! Huge hugs across the miles - have a wonderful week ahead!
RispondiEliminaThank you for the lesson on embossing with plastic food containers, you really are very good at that. I thought we were starting to see less plastic packaging, but now I am not so sure. Great card and wonderful colouring xx
RispondiEliminaA super card Alice, a sweet image.
RispondiEliminaYou are so clever with your recycling, a fabulous idea to use packaging to emboss.

What amazing recycling! I like how you think of creative ways to recycle and reuse product packaging. I know I throw away things that can be reused but I try to think about the item before I throw it. Here we have a blue bag program, where the items are supposed to be recycled, but I have read that the market for these recycled items is not there, and that our blue bag items end up in the landfill. It's disgraceful. Home owners take time to sort these items, but they all end up in the landfill. I think your embossing with this packaging looks amazing, and I like how you inked over it to highlight the design! Your boy is a cutie and I like your colouring! The added flowers and sentiment finish it off beautifully! Wonderful work, my friend, and I am super impressed with your recycling ideas!
RispondiEliminaAgree, it’s horrible how much plastic packaging wastes there are. Your recycling/upcycling creativity never cease to amaze me. Embossing the plastic… so cool! Your card is adorable!
RispondiEliminaSo cute and very clever use of the packaging for embossing with. Brilliant.

You are so right in everything you say in this post. I applaud you for reusing packaging, I have tried to do so in a small way but you are the Queen for it. You have excelled yourself with the embossing idea and it looks marvellous on this cute card.
