New Home

tisdag 30 april 2019

Hello friends!
Today I have made a slightly different shaped card for a couple who recently moved into their new house, I wish them all the best with their new home!
I have used three dies - Lawn Fawn Grassy Border, Memory Box Rounded Fence and Manor House, where I only used the windows and the door. I also used a Martha Stewart punch for the edge of the roof. The flowers on the door are of lace that I painted with my Copic pens.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs, Birgit

Hello there!
Dropping in to share a Christmmas card today. I have used a Mini Deco Doily stencil from Crafters Workshop and some dies. I´m playing along with Creative Knockouts Doily Delight challenge...and some more challenges listed below.
 After sponging the stencil with Distress inks , I heat embossed the edges with Stampendous Fran-tage Aged Hunter pouder. Next, I die cut the wreath out of both  white and gold glitter CS using Tutti Designs Leafy Wreath die. I adhered the wreath with foam tape to pop up over a strip of vellum. The Marianne Design sentiment was white heat embossed and then cut with the coordinated die. The Gummiapan reindeer head was first cut and sponged with Distress inks, then backed with black foam for dimension. I also cut out the bow using one Craft Emotions die and finished the card by adding a jingle bell.
As always thanks so much for stopping by. I wish you all a nice weekend!
Hugs, Birgit

It's Your Day Today

Hello there!
I hope you all had a nice Easter together with family and friends! Today I´m sharing a card made for The Paper Players - CAS Paper Piecing challenge.
I´m also playing along with Crafty Creations - Anything Goes, Dragonfly Dreams - Include an Animal and Creative Moments - Anything Goes.
I started by stamping the Hedgehog Kisses from Penny Black and color it up with my Copics. I also stamped the balloons on a piece of leftover designer paper and cut out by hand. Next, I masked the hedgehogs and balloons so that I could create some sort of cloudy background by sponging Distress inks over an old Mama Elephant die cut. I added foam tape to the balloons to create some dimension. The Gummiapan sentiment were clear heat embossed and that´s about it, I think.
Have a great day!
Hugs, Birgit

Congratulations On Christening Day

Hello there!
Today I have another baptism/christening card to show where I have used a digi image and colored it with my Copics.
 I have also used some Glossy Accents and gold Stickles. I cut off the balloon in the top edge and attached a piece of foam tape underneath to give a pop up effect. The sentiment stamp is from K-designs. This was a quick post ... but I think you see how it's done.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello there friends!
Sometimes you have to work a little extra with a card, this is such one and yet I am not happy with it. In fakt everything went wrong and I had to think of new ways...here is what finaly came out.
I created the background panel using Distress inks and Spellbinders Labels One/Decorative Labels One. The flower from Altenew´s Beautiful Day stamp set was also stamped with Distress inks and then cut out by hand. Next, I pulled out some more dies from my stash, the Memory Box Fresh Foliage and one Craft Emotions bow die that I sponged with Black Soot. I used foam tape between the layers for added depth. The sentiment is from K-designs. I finished my card by adding some Glossy Accents and enamel dots.
Wishing everyone a happy day!
Hugs, Birgit
