Well, hello again!

Today, I´m sharing a small bag I have made, I'm a little tired of all the cards.
I've been thinking that I should be able to give away a small gift in it to someone.
I hope I have not decorated it too much, I want it to be a bit stylish.

I have used Magnolia paper - Something Blue
Velvet ribbon, White rose ribbon, Lace, Twine, Decorative Pin I made myself with pearls and other parts, Flowers, Star Dust Stickles, A silver metal plate, some blue little flowers which is actually a ribbon that I cut off.
The Congrats text, I have cut out from a PION Design paper and sat in a metal frame.

As always, thanks for looking!
Hugs, Birgit

Cuddly Giraffe

Hello everyone!

For the first time I was considering not to do any card for Less is More this week.

I went through my stamps and could not find anything that inspired me at all.

Until I saw this cute giraffe at Starry Nights Studio.

I felt immediately that there was a child card, I would do, I have not seen many of them in the challenges of Less is More.

So here it is:

I did not color it a lot, only in soft tones.

This toy car has matching eyes, I think.

The giraffe is dressed up nice today.

Thanks sgain for stopping by.

Hugs, Birgit

I´m Not Lacy...

Hello!

Hope you have a good Friday today.

I have a lacy summer card to share.

I found the image here, thank you Leigh!

The sentiment is also a freebie from Create with TLC.

It was not hard to find these papers from Maja Design, I think they match perfect.

I just sponged the edges with Faded Jeans Distress Ink. and used the sewing machine.

The sentiment I just sat down with staples.

I used Copics and a white pencil for the image.

The bathing suit has a layer of Glossy Accents and Diamond Stickles.

Flowers from Petaloo, Wild Orchid Chraft, Magnolia. The berries I found in a flower shop the other day, I regret only that I did not buy more of them.

Ribbons from my stash.

The inside...

I used the sketch over at Mojo Monday.

Pink Car

Hello! I'm back again after the weekend and today I'll show you a new card with a cool pink car.

The sentiment were written directly on the paper (I can not find where it comes from)

The paper with dots on comes from Inkido, I  also used gray corrugated paper.

Mild And Warm Pastel Summer Colors

Happy Friday, everyone!

It is time for another card from me. And today it has lovely mild and warm pastel summer colors.

I must say I love it myself.

I could not help it, but it became quite a lot of pictures today:)

For my card I have used papers from the Butterfly Garden collection from Pinkpaislee.

Dies from Spellbinders Shapeabilities Fancy Tag , Nestabilities Fleur De Lis Squares and Nellie Snellen Multi Frames.

Stamp from Magenta which I colored with Copics.

Then I covered the butterfly with Glossy Accents and the lock whith Crackle Accents.

For even more glitter I added Platinum Stickles.

Then I cut it out, distressed the edges and placed it over a heart-shaped doily.

Beautiful flowers from Prima.

The sentiment from StampingScrapping is stamped with Spun Sugar.
