Blue!

Hello my friends! Thanks for your visit, and all the appreciated comments.

Especially from all visitors who comes across "Less is More". You are amazing at writing encouraging comments. Thanks so much!

Today I made a gift box in blueberry blue colours.

I used papers from Maja Design -"Ska vi ta en fika?",

and my Spellbinders.

I added some Perfect Pearl and Stickles on the flowers, to create a fresh and crispy look.

This will be a gift for a nice guy, who soon is celebrating a birthday.....

Tulips once again

Hi, this is going to be a quick post.
I am back with another try for Less is More,  and by that I mean a try of this "clean and simple" technique.

I used the sweet tulips once again because the theme is "Spring".

They look great on my card, and I coloured them with copics and a little Twinklings.

If you look properly, it may appear that the flowers have little clear embossingpowder on themselves.

I hope it can be seen in the pictures.

The card is suitable for someone's birthday this Spring time, and even for Timeless Tuesdays challenge "Birthday Card".
A Spoon Full of Sugar - Birthday Whishes

Hope you like it and thanks for looking!

Hugs, Birgit.

Spring is round the corner

Good morning! Hope you are having a great week.

Today I have a card to share that I made for Card Patterns, I used their sketch.

I realy liked it, and the sentiment is from Create whith TLC.

At Phindy´s Place the theme is "Spring is on the way", and I do agree. So I used the lovely colored papers from Pion Design - Sagan om våren" and Maja Design "Ska vi ta en fika".

This time I let the sentiment to be used as the main focal point of my card,

as they want over at Allsorts Challenge Blog.

No Spring whithout a butterfly, and fortunately, one sweet little one sat down in the corner.

And some other challenges where I think my card can participate is:

Bonny Zoes Craft - Spring....Flowers Everywhere

Keeping Warm

As I told you yesterday, I'll soon be back again.

Here I am with something totaly different. Over at The Shabby Tea Room they have a theme this week of "Keeping Warm". And what fits better this season when it´s cold and winter outside.

I have used my teddybears once again (you´ve seen them before).

Today, they have crawled into this pocket to keep warm and cosy.

And they can come up just when they want ...

I also want to participate in the challenge over at Tuesday Throwdown where

Simple Flower

Welcome friends!

Happy to see you back.

It´s time to make a one layer card, with a theme of a Flower or a Tree,

 at Less Is More this week.

Unfortunately, I have no tree stamps, so it had to be one simple flower.

I could not resist this beautiful flowers to the inside.

It´s very simple this card i know, hope you like it anyhow.

This card is also for Saturday Challenge - A Stamped Flower.

I'll soon be back again with something else, until then...

Have a nice day.

Hugs, Birgit.

Less is more

Hi, every happy friend!

The entire blogosphere is flooded with valentine cards right now, so I thought it was wonderful to do a different (for me) card to the new challenge blog "Less is More".

The first challenge is about Pink, Black and White.

I think myself  that the reflection, of the circle with the text, is really good.

And that's the most important thing, that I like it. But I hope someone else do it also.

I took some pictures but they got so bad that I had to delete them,

and try again when it became a bit brighter outside.

Here it is:

This is not good photographs either...sigh!

The inside...

I could not find so many other challenges where my card could fit,

only Pear Tree Design where it´s "Free For All"

Size: 17 x 13 cm.

Papers: Cardstock

Ink.: Distress Ink -Spun sugar

Embellies: Half pearls, Flowers

Hugs, Birgit.
