Picnic in the Park this Summer with Rina K. Designs

by Ellen Haxelmanns on July 07, 2020
Hi, Ellen here with some fun things for an outdoor dinner! This time of the year with ice-cream, summer dresses, and warm yellow sunshine all screams for picnics in the park! I'm in a good mood when I see bright and cheery colors. That's why made a picnic set with the Electro Pop line. I made a bag for cutlery, upcycled a drink bottle, and decorated a container full with tasty cookies. For these Items, I always used a mouse (made of flock) and iridescent letters. Also, some glitter gel was used.

Drink bottle

I will explain how I made the drink bottle. The other items are basically made the same way. Later in this post, I will tell you in-depth all items used on all other projects. So let's get started. Flock gives a velvety texture on your projects. First I did cut out a piece of 'Deco Foil Flock Transfer Sheets' in the desired colors and length. Then I cut a design out of 'Adhesive Foam' (all the pieces for the mouse). I Removed the frond liner from the 'Adhesive Foam' and laid it on the colored side of the flock. Next, I did run it through a die-cutting machine. As the last step, I did peel the foam from the flock. To give dimension I did add distress ink to a few pieces (not shown on the picture). Product details:
  • Adhesive Foam, Orange Glow, Hello Yellow, Tuscan Gold, Sunshine Yellow, White Latte, and Pink Carnation Flock Transfer Sheets.
Some elements got a different texture. For these, I used the 'Neon Electro Pop Enamel' and foil. The Enamel may also be applied to 'Adhesive Foam' like the flock. The foil is applied differently. You have to cut a piece of foil slightly larger than the desired shape. Place the foil colored side up, on top of the shape. Place it inside a piece of folded parchment paper. Push it true a hot laminator. Did you know ThermOWeb has a document for laminator settings? Click here to see it, maybe it helps you out. Product details:
  • Adhesive Foam;
  • Screamin' Green Neon Enamel Transfer Sheet;
  • Deco Foil Toner Sheet;
  • Iridescent Deco Foil Transfer Sheet.
Of course, this project needed some extra sparkle. I did use Glitz Glitter Gel and a stencil to get the extra shine. The stencil pal helped me to apply the gel smoothly. Can you see the glitter on top of the flock? I really love that texture! Product details:
  • Poppin' Pink and Hello Yellow Glitz Glitter Gel.
I did use the iridescent foil for all the letters. Product details:
  • Deco Foil Toner Sheet;
  • Iridescent Deco Foil Transfer Sheet.
To complete the bottle I did put a pink straw, with a self-made bow around, in it. Isn't this perfect for the bottle?

Bag and cutlery

And we need some tools for the picnic; Cutlery. Another fun object to add glitter gel is cutlery. I gave the spoon, fork, and knife a different color. Can you also see the pattern on the mat? You can obtain this by stamping on your flock. Product details:
  • Adhesive Foam;
  • White latte, Tuscan Gold, Pink Carnation, Hellow Yellow, Poppin' Pink Flock Transfer Sheets;
  • Orange Glow Ink
  • Orange Glow Neon Enamel Transfer Sheet;
  • Deco Foil Toner Sheet;
  • Iridescent & Aqua Deco Foil Transfer Sheet
  • Hellow Yellow, Orange Glow, Poppin' Pink, and Screamin' Green Glitz Glitter Gel.

Cookie Container

The last item I wanted to add to my picnic basket was a little box for cookies. I didn't only decorate the lid of the box, but I also attached a tag. The text on the tag was stamped with a stamp from the 'Sending Sunshine' stamp set and glitter embossing powder. Product details:
  • Adhesive Foam;
  • White latte, Pink Carnation, and Hellow Yellow Flock Transfer Sheets;
  • Deco Foil Toner Sheet;
  • Iridescent, Aqua & Black Deco Foil Transfer Sheet;
  • Hello Yellow and Screamin' Green Glitz Glitter Gel;
  • Sending Sunshine stamp set.
So for those who are currently blessed with beautiful weather and thinking of enjoying a little picnic or two, I'm hoping these craft ideas will come handy. Happy Picnicing!
