Hello friends!

Now is the time for weddings, graduations and confirmations, it is a wonderful time for celebrations, right? This card is for the girl next door who have confirmation this weekend, I chose to do it in a mild shabby chic style.

I dug deep into my paper stash and found a patterned paper from Studio Calico Lemon Lush and an image. I also used a stamp from Vildastamps for the sentiment, which then was cut out with one of the Sheapabilities Fancy Tags dies.

The butterfly was cut out with a Sizzix die and then added together with flowers, lace and some other things from my stash. I stamped a well-known Swedish summer hymn on the inside.

Okay, that´s all for me...wishing you a all a happy day and thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs, Birgit

Confirmation Card Again...

Happy Friday!

I have made ​​yet another confirmation card and this time it became a card in vintage style. 

I decided to try a new card fold I found the description to in the latest issue of the magazine Ett Trykk. But I do not know how I was thinking, of the course you should use a round or oval die for this! Which I did not and then it immediately became a problem ... there was some tinkering before I got it to work, and here are the result.

I used papers from Maja Design Vintage Summer Basics paper pad and a vintage image I think was from a Pion design sheet.

I also used some dies and they are: Nestabilities Classic Ovals Large, Shapeabilities Window Three, Sheapabilities Fancy Tags, Memory Box Fresh Foliage.

For the sentiment I used a stamp from Vilda Stamps, and then I finished of this project with some other stuff from my stash.

I wish you a great weekend! Here where I live, nature is at its most beautiful right now so I'll enjoy it as much as I can.

Hugs, Birgit

Confirmation Card

Hi everyone!
And once again, I welcome you to my blog. Today I´m sharing a confirmation card that I have made for a girl and I think this type of card is called recessed window card.

I started by coloring the "Lupita" digi image with my Copics, under the image I added some Stampendous Aged Silver embossing pouder and heated in. I punched out three butterflies with my Martha Stewart punch and added Silver Mix glitter to one of them and sprayed it with pink color.

I used papers from K-design and the sentiment stamp are from Vilda Stamps.The swirl I cut out with a Die-namics die and dyed it with Dusty Concorde Distress ink topped with glimmer mist. I had some leftover things on my desk from previous projects that now came into use, a chipboard heart, a die cut leaf and a couple of pins.

The metal corner was first painted with white gesso and then a second time with black acrylic paint. After it dried I sanded it a bit for a worn look.
The card was finished of with pearls, ribbons, twine and a metal cross.

Thanks for visiting my blog, I wish you all a wonderful day wherever you are!
Hugs, Birgit
