Happy Saturday!

Today I have a card created for CAS Colours&Sketches where Patricia has drawn up a sketch for us to follow.

I used this art stamp from Carabelle Studio "Collage Chevron" and the sentiment stamp is from Gummiapan. I also used a couple of dies, one of the Craft Emotions "Bows rope & raffia" dies and Lawn Fawn Large Cross-Stitched Circle Stackables dies. Coloring, Copic pens and Distress inks.

That´s all for today. As always thanks so much for stopping by, I hope you all have a great weekend!

Hugs, Birgit

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday!

I am so happy to have you here with me! This is my post for today where I have used Penny Black´s "Mimi´s Love" stamp set and some different dies.

She is colored with Copics and some parts is highlighted with Glossy Accents. Next, I started die-cutting the background with the MFT Blueprint 23 die set and sponged the pieces with Distress inks. Then I stamped around the edges with an old Pinkpaislee "Butterfly Garden" stamp. I created a frame with MFT "Inside/out Stitch Oval" dies and popped it, and Mimi with foam tape. I also adhered die-cutted Memory Box "Small Flock of Doves" and Penny Black "Soft Caress" hearts.

That´s all for today! As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Birthday Card

Hello everyone!

I´ve popped in for a super quick post just to share a card created for the color challenge, green and white over at The Paper Players. I´m also linking up with a few other challenges too.

I used a sentiment stamp from Svenskatextstämplar "Wishing you a day with nice gifts, beautiful flowers, sweet birthday cake and warm congratulations!" All the leaves are made with Wendy Vecchi Studio 490 "Lovely Leaves" stencil and a couple of Distress inks. The butterfly is from a napkin, adhered to cardstock and cut out by hand.

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day!

Hugs, Birgit

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday!

Today's card is for Muse: ChristmasVisions where Cornelia Wenokor is our muse, and I´m linking up with some other challenges too.

I decided to use this little Santa from Vildastamps which I think is so adorable. I did a simple Copic coloring and added Glossy Accents to the hood. Then I proceeded with the lover part where I used a Prima Marketing stencil and Distress inks to create the wall, at the top I added some snow glitter. I tied a Tim Holtz Metal Word Band with natural twine, where I first rubbed in black acrylic paint so the text shows a little better.

That´s all for today! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello My Friend

Hello there crafters!

Here with me spring has got a real kickback. Yesterday it snowed all day and today the wind blows very cold...brrrh! For today´s card I used a Lavinia stamp, clear heat embossed it and created the background using some Distress inks.

I cut the "hello" out with a Mama Elephant die, and then stamped a part of a text from MFT Beary Special Birthday stamp set on black cardstock and white heat embossed it. I finished of with a few sequins.

That´s all for today! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy Birthday!

Hello everyone and happy Friday!

 I suddenly felt that it was very long ago, I made a vintage inspired card. I have lots of old stuff in my stash so it was no problem to create this card.

I started with the patterned paper Vintage Garden - Peony from PION design and combined it with an image that color matched. The butterfly is punched out with a Martha Stewart punch, and the sentiment is actually a ribbon that I adhered on to cardstock so that it could more easily be formed. Love these cute little flowers:)

That´s all for today. Wish you all a wonderful weekend!

Hugs, Birgit

With Love

Hello there crafters!

Yes, I know that Valentines Day has passed and that it´s time to start creating cards for Easter, but I had not really put those stamps aside yet so it became one more "Love" card. I used the sketch over at CAS(E) this Sketch as inspiration.

I started by stamping and coloring up the Bildmålarna "Little Winged Friends" image with Copics and cut it out by hand. I also added some Glossy Accents and Star Dust Stickles to the wings. For the background, I used green Distress inks, a dotted stencil from ScrapBerry´s and then die-cut the oval out with Spellbinders Labels Ten. Next, I run it thru the "Garden Delight" embossing folder from Spellbinders to create the pattern and stamped the sentiment. I think that´s about all.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!
