Kaisercraft Design Team - Off The Wall

Hi All,

Today I am sharing the cool new "Off The Wall"  Collection from Kaisercraft.  This is a fabulous grungy range and is just perfect for all your masculine projects.  Make sure you check out the Kaisercraft blog and Facebook site to see all the gorgeous and varied creations from our amazing Design Team.

“Extreme Gamer” Layout
Went for a mixed media grunge feel for this LO.  When I came across the Pacman pp I was inspired to create this LO of Luke who was in the zone and concentrating so intensely that he didn't evn notice me taking tis pic.  As you may have noticed I am totally addicted to the Kaisercraft texture stamps and you will usually find one or 2 of them on my backgrounds.  Here I have combined the Tiny Dot and Chevron Texture Stamps with the arrow from the Off the Wall Stamp Set, stamped in reds and blues to tie in with my colour scheme.  I even pulled out one of my favourite older stamp sets "Grunge Font" to create my title.

Other Products:  punch, mist, gesso, fineliner pen

“Birthday Wishes” Layout
The Off the Wall collection has an overall colour palette in shades of blue with black and white highlights.  For this LO I went for a monochrome feel, by layering various pp's to create the background for my photos.  To brighten up my LO I decided to use the reverse side of the Superstar Specialty Paper, then randomly stamped over the top with the numbers texture stamp.  I used the stars from the collectables pack to create another layer, which I also stamped, but you could create your own stars in any colour by using the star stamp from the matching clear stamp set.

Hi All,

“Altered Mail Holder” Beyond the Page Project

 I received the new Kaisercraft BTP Mail Holder in my generous parcel of goodies, as well as some of the new 12x12 Chipboard Sheets, so I decided why not add a backboard to the mail holder to hold those larger envelopes.  Rather than leave it bare, I added a few stickers and cut up the "Mod" pp to make a little calendar, which I attached the the backboard with a clip.

“You Are Loved” Card
 For my cards, instead of sticking to the neutrals in this range I thought why not add a pop of colour to the black and white pp's.  I embossed a piece of flamingo cardstock and added a couple of hot pink paper blooms to contrast with the black and white for this card.

Happy Birthday” Card
 On my second card I went for a soft green "Neptune" cardstock which I again embossed to add a little texture and matched it in with the sea breeze sparklets and a misted mini paper bloom.
