Hello there!

I hope you have a warm spring weather where you are....it's not here with me where I live, it is quite cold and it even snowed / rained a little today. This will be my last Easter card this year and I wanted to make it egg-shaped, so it is oval.

I used my Copics to color the image, then I cut it out and mounted it with 3 D foam.

I made a background using dotted washi tape and a die cut square frame made with a Spellbinder die. The sentiment on the little tag is from Panduro and I also added a few more Easter-inspired items from my stash. That´s it. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy Easter to you all!

Hugs, Birgit

Vintage Easter Card

A warm welcome again friends!
This is my second post for today and now I want to show an Easter card of course:)

I was inspired to create a rectangle pull card by using a die from Elisabeth crafts Designs but without using the pop it up details.

I used the beautiful vintage PION design papers from last years collection "A Day in May" for my card.  Then I inked up a couple of stamps which I complemented with.

A sentiment and a pair of small bunnies was cut out with a Rox Stamps die and then added with the other embellishments.
Thanks again for stopping by (if you have seen my first post today)! I hope you enjoyed my project.
Hugs, Birgit

Pocket Tag

Hello everyone!

Today I have a fairly simple pocket tag to display. First I stamped some text as a background and covered it partially with white dots of embossing paste.

Then I painted a chipboard flower from Tando Creative with Distress inks and heated in some thick clear embossing powder so it looks like dew drops, love it:)

 I also added a little stamped Heidi Swapp sentiment and a few things/die cuts from my stash.

I used some different old stamps and inks for the tag and finished of with a couple of Tims Chitchat words.

Thanks so much for your visit here on my blog today!

Hugs, Birgit

Case A DT Card

Hey there everyone!

Today I´m sharing a very special card for me...it's my first shaker cards ever:) The one who got me to try it out is DT Sarah over at Less is More, here is her lovely card...

...and here´s mine.

Besides that there is a shaker card, I have focused on the theme of love. I started with the dry embossing that was made with one of the folders from Sizzix Scallop Heart Doily Set. Next I punched out the hole and added distress ink to the flowers. The hearts inside the plastic was made with a homemade stencil. And finally, the sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps Film Srip set.
And that´s it, friends. Thanks so much for stopping by today!
Hugs, Birgit

Happy Easter

Hi, and welcome back!

Today I have a clean and simple card to show you. I wanted to make an Easter card for the upcoming Easter holiday so I needed some inspiration and found it at this week's CAS (E) this Sketch Challenge.

First the shipboard bird got a layer with black embossing powder that was heated in, then it received another layer of thick clear embossing powder for a shiny look. I embossed the background paper with a Cuttelbug embossing folder and cut out the eggs with a standard oval die. Sentiment from Panduro.

That´s it I think...have a nice day!

Hugs, Birgit

A Small Gift Box

Hi there!

I hope you are having a great weekend! Today I have a new project to share where I have recycled a box.

I did a background of metal tape, black acrylic color and Tim Holtz Alterations Texture Fades embossing folders.

 It was a little tricky to make the frames but it went with the help of Tim Holtz Alterations Plaque & Postage die and another square die. I painted them with light green acrylic paint and black Distress Ink.

There is a lady cut out from a Reprint paper and some other old stuff and papers from my stash.

I attached a metal knob on each side of the box so it can be opened in both directions.

Okay, I hope you like my little project. Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hugs, Birgit
