Hello crafters!

Today I have another wedding card to show you, a true romantic one...aren´t they cute?

I decided to use the "Bird Swing" stamp from Whimsy Stamps and give it the focus of my card by placing it in a frame made with Die-namics Inside/Out Stitch Ovals dies. I colored the image with Copics and I also added Glossy Accents to the flowers. I used a linen cardstock that is a little creamy white, which I think is very beautiful. The sentiment stamp is from You Do. I also used the Penny Black "Soft Caress" die and the "Fresh Foliage" die from Memory Box.

Thanks for stopping by and have yourself a great day!

Hugs, Birgit

Wedding Card

Hello crafting friends!

Today I have a wedding card to show, there are many who take the opportunity to marry in the spring and summer, and now I have got reason to make a couple of cards which is always great fun.

On the first, as I show here, it´s a bit difficult to see the amazing paper that shimmers beautifully in cream / gold (I saved it in my stash for years). It´s classic and elegant with hearts that I cut out with Spellbinders dies and where the upper heart is embossed with dots. I also cut out the leaves with the Memory Box "Fresh Foliage" die out of grey cardstock. I used K-design stamps for the sentiment and clear heat embossed it. I also added flowers and clear sequins to bling it up.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hugs, Birgit

You And Me, That´s We

Hello friends!

I hope you all have had a good start to the new year. I've already written the wrong year, and it will surely be more times I guess:)

My daughter wanted a card to a couple of their friends who are getting married now in January, a real winter wedding in other words.

 

 

And since I just peeked in at Svensk Scrapbooking and seen their sketch challenge, I thought to use it to my card.

Since it would be a greeting to the bride and groom on the inside, I thought it would be nice if you could open it up, and therefore it became like this.

 

 

The image is a freebe from a magazine, unfortunately I do not remember which, because it was a while ago. I just colored it up a little with Copics and then added Star Dust Stickles. I drew around the edge with a black pen.

The paper I used are from Best Creation, they have lovely glittery papers perfect for weddings.

 

 

I used flowers and roses in pale colors. A doily and swirls, both in rhinestones and white made with Shapeabilities Floral Fluorishes was also adhered, together with a silvery metal corner in the upper left.

The sentiment was made with a stamp from Stämpelkällan.

 

I also want to play along with my card in the following challenges:

Party Time Tuesdays - Celebrate

Robyns Fetish - Use a Doily

I hope you all enjoy a happy and productive day with a lot of crafting:)

The Bride And Groom Is Congratulated

Happy Friday everyone!

I´m back today with one more wedding card. I´s an easel card,

and this time I used a digital stamp from Elisabeth Bell that I colored with Copics.

I made the sentiment on the computer and printed out. Then it was cut and embossed.

The image were cut out with the out of the box technique before it was adhered over a white piece of cardstock that had been cut and embossed with one Spellbinders Heart Circles die.

The bird papers were bought from Panduro several years ago and are probably not to purchase anymore. The edges was first painted with white acrylic paint and then Picket Fence Crackle Paint.

A bow was tied  and topped with a rose. Some rose ribbon was adhered underneath.

A stick pin and bead leaves finish of the card.

I forgot to say that the wings got some Star Dust Stickles for some sparkling.

He is so cute, the little one!

Have a wonderful weekend, spread a little love!

Hugs, Birgit

Happy Monday!

I hope you had a nice Midsummer holiday, with plenty of good food and dancing around the leafy maypole.

I´m here with a wedding card today. It's that time of year that many takes the opportunity to marry.

I wanted ​​it to be simple but yet elegant.

I used white CS and scored it in a square pattern, then i added Pearl Maker at each corner.

To the lower part I used one paper from Bildmålarna - Dreams, and the sentiment stamp from Bildkällan. The sweet freebie birds were printed directly on the paper and the rings got a little Platinum Stickles on. After that I added a lovely pearl lace.

A black SC was adhered underneath.

On the inside I used one Inkido stamp (Love conquers all) and some Inkadinkado swirl stamps.

Some dies from Spellbinders was used for cutting and embossing.

There is not much more to say about this, I hope you like it, and the wedding couple too.

I wish them all the luck in the future.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs, Birgit

Lovin 'Life With You By My Side

Good morning friends!

I´m here today with a wedding easel card. It's been a while since I had reason to make a wedding card, so it was really fun to do this.

I used one image from the sheet  Flowers and Fairies from Sagenvintagedesign, and a piece of PaperCraftScandinavia Light a Candle paper.

The image was stitched on a Lattice Rectangles die cut.

The heart were covered with a lace fabric, another lace with a metal ribbon buckle was adhered around the heart.

I wrote the sentiment on my computer, the Inkadinkado swirl was stamped and then I cut it out with one Nellie Snellen die. The edges were sponged with Spun Sugar Distress Ink. Then I added a few Rhinestones on one side.

I tied a bow with lace, glued a couple of roses and stuck in a pin.

The writing area at the bottom was made using various Spellbinder dies, one Pinkpaislee stamp, Star Dust Stickles, white rose ribbon, and some Rhinestones finished off my card.

Hope you all have a good start of the week!

Hugs, Birgit
