Canvas Couture Collection - Tonic Studios Cyber Week Launch

Happy Thursday!

I have another brand new release to share with you as part of Tonic Studios Cyber Week.  This time it is the Canvas Couture Collection which comprises of the Radiant Rucksack Gift Bag Die Set and co-ordinating paper pad.

I made a couple of rucksacks using the die set and paper pad.  The first one I made using the floral papers from the paper pad with craft perfect cardstock.


I incorporated magnets for the closure which works so well!


I love how you can add the straps at the back as well - too cute!


For my second backpack there is not a flower in sight!  I made a fun one using the papers which are a good weight so you can make the entire bag using them and it will be sturdy enough.  This one I added buckles at the front which actually work!

Thanks very much for taking the time to look.

See you again soon,

Supreme Succulents Collection - Tonic Studios Cyber Week Launch

Happy Tuesday!

Cyber Week began for Tonic Studios yesterday.  Today, I'm sharing the launch of the fabulous Supreme Succulents Gift Box Die Set and co-ordinating paper pad.

My affiliate links, at no cost to you, are here with thanks:

You can make different sizes of pots for your succulents as well as different sized cacti with the die set and there is a co-ordinating paper pad which I have used for a couple of the gift boxes.


For the first one I made I used the papers for the cactus and the pot.  You can see how you get a lovely texture on the paper using the dies to make it look more realistic.  I added foliage around the edges and a flower on the top.


I made a different type of succulent using the dies to cut out the shapes from the paper pad.  I made a smaller pot and decorated it with a cute bow from the set.


For my final cactus I used just a strip of patterned paper to decorate the edge of the pot.  I used inks to give more dimension to the cactus and I have a reel showing how I made this one.

See you again soon with another cyber launch,

Tonic Studios Craft Kit 98 - Santa's Shaker Tags

Happy Thursday!

Winter is definitely here!  I have been freezing this week and made the boys wear their winter coats as daytime temperatures were so low.  We even had snow yesterday!

As it's the 20th of the month it is time for the latest Craft Kit 98 from Tonic Studios - Santa's Shaker Tags. My affiliate links with thanks are here:

This Craft Kit contained a wonderful variety of items perfect for making Christmas cards as I need a a lot more!  


I loved the foil adhesion sheets and the rolls of foil in this Kit and used them to make the sentiment, Christmas trees and candy cane.  There are also 2 packs of sequins and I used them in the shaker elements on my card.  


For the second card I used the bauble dies from the Kit and made another shaker.  The papers on both my cards are from the Twinkling Traditions paper pad which I recently purchased.

Just a heads up that it is Tonic Studios Cyber Week next week so I'll be sharing some of the new releases coming out.

Have a lovely weekend,
Shabneez

Dainty Deco Gift Box - Tonic Studios

Happy Thursday!

There's a fabulous new release today of the Dainty Deco Gift Box from Tonic Studios.  I absolutely loved creating with this die set.  My affiliate links, at no cost to you, can be found here:

UK: https://www.tonic-studios.co.uk/ij2gt2

USA: https://www.tonic-studios.com/go3ghw


The first box I created was the traditional one using the additional dies from the set to create that Art Deco feel.  With all the boxes I made I liked combining the matt, mirri and glitter card together to give additional texture to the boxes.


As we are in autumn, I thought for the next box I'd use the Harvest Cascade Paper pad to decorate the box and I added fussy cut pumpkins from the paper pad as well.  I didn't want the image on the top to be covered with the handle so opted not to have one.


For my final box I opted for a festive box perfect for Christmas treats!  I used the Jolly Jingles paper pad and created a little scene along the edges of the box with the papers in the pad.  I think it looks cute!


I hope you've enjoyed seeing my creations and many thanks to those of you that use my affiliate links.

See you again soon,

Seasonal Wreath Collection - Tonic Studios

Happy Thursday!

It's been a while but I have been working very hard in the background!  Today is the brand new release of the Seasonal Wreath Collection comprising of a die set, 8x8 paper pad and foil fusion adhesive sheets.  My affiliate links, at no cost to you:

USA: https://www.tonic-studios.com/5nqozz



I loved creating with this collection.  I made the wreath first using the foil fusion adhesive sheets and silver foil on the bow and flowers.  I die cut all the foliage from various types of cardstock to give depth and texture.


Next, I made the little box using the same die set and adding the foil fusion sheets along with rose gold foil,  I added Nuvo drops to finish.  


Finally, I made the seasonal wreath gift box using the Seasonal Wreath 8x8 paper pad which is gorgeous!  It's easy to make and you can fit a fair bit inside!


Thanks very much for looking and see you again soon!

Buried Treasure Gift Box - Tonic Studios New Launch

Happy Thursday!

It's getting very autumnal now with the leaves shedding and that blustery wind is really picking up.  Grateful the time hasn't gone back yet though!

Sharing a brand new release available direct from Tonic Studios today.  My affiliate links, with thanks:

USA: HERE

The is a great die set which makes a Treasure Chest and has elements that you can use to embellish it as well.


I used the rock, oyster and grass dies to embellish my box and added Nuvo drops for pearls.


I made the box using papers from the Harvest Cascade paper pad together with Craft Perfect cardstock.  As the paper was double sided it meant that the inside of the box was also pretty!

Enjoy the rest of the week and see you again soon,

These gift boxes are really easy to put together and are such a lot of fun!  For the first one I used the transfers from the Kit together with the Nuvo drops.
