Happy Birthday

lördag 27 februari 2016

Hello friends!
Happy weekend to you! Today I´m sharing a round card with flowers from my way too big stash, and I can tell you that it was a looooong time since I made such one.



To create my card I have combined a few die sets, and I have used Go Create Large Frame No 160011, Spellbinders Nestabilities Heart Circles and Spellbinders Shapeabilities Floral Fluorishes.The papers is from Authentiques collection "Renew" and the sentiment stamp from Reprint.
Okay that´s all for me. Enjoy your day!
Hugs, Birgit

Up...Up...And...Away

torsdag 25 februari 2016

Hi everyone!
I have made a card for this weeks clean and simple challenge at The Paper Players, but I was thinking something completely different from balloons as you can see.


I have used some old stamps from Viva Decor and Inkido to create the scene and also for the sentiment. I've just added some Stardust Stickles on the butterfly too.

I´ll join in at CAS on Sunday 
One Layer Wonder

and

Anything Goes

and

Sparkle and Shine

Thanks for your visit, have a nice day!
Hugs, Birgit

Wishing You All That You Wish For

måndag 22 februari 2016

Happy Monday crafters!
I hope you all had a nice weekend and perhaps little time for crafting. I have atleast had time to make this card with some texture to this week's challenge over at Less is More.



I have used an old stamp from The Greeting Farm on watercolor paper, colorized it with Polychromos pens (it's ages since I used them), added glitter Stickles and then cut it out by hand. I created the texture of the grass by first color the Studio 490 Wendy Vecchi stencil "From The Garden" with some green Distress inks and then added Embossing Paste on top so that the paint is sucked up. I think it gives a great texture. The sentiment was made with a Inkido stamp.
That's all for today, thank you for visiting!

The cherries now got a blue background and shine by clear embossing pouder. I used a Rox Stamps die for the congrats and papers from Authentique the Lovely collection.

söndag 14 februari 2016

Hello there!
Ok, I know it's Valentine's Day today, but it's not such a card I want to show you...it´s a greeting card instead. It's made with 3D layering technique with a rose image from Le Suh.



I hope you also can see the great embossed background that I made with one of the Next Level Gemstone folders from We R memory keepers. I also cut out a Memory Box  Seville Buckle in silver cardstock and placed it behind the image. Then I stamped the sentiment with a Inkido stamp and adhered it together with some other items from my stash.
Thanks for visiting! I hope you all have a day full of love with loved ones!
Hugs, Birgit

Golden Flowers

lördag 13 februari 2016

Hello crafters!
For today's card, I have used an almost forgotten product from my stash, a gold-colored acrylic paint Vivace from Stamperia with lovely shimmer.


I have used it with a Bloom Silhouettes stencil from STAMPlorations on black cardstock. The sentiment (congratulations) is from Inkido and for the background I have used old patterned papers that I thought matched.
Okay that´s all for me. Wishing you all a happy Saturday and thank you for visiting!
Hugs, Birgit

onsdag 10 februari 2016

Hi everyone!
How are you today? I myself had very hard to sleep tonight because we have the Norwalk virus in this house and I imagined myself constantly that I probably was going to get sick myself, but so far it have passed me. Ok, enough of that. Here I show a card for Valentine's day with almost no heart at all.


The flowers are a digi stamp (unknown designer) that I have colored up with copics, added some Gold Stickles and then cut out by hand. I used the chalkboard technique to the sentiment from Autumn Leaves "Love With A Fluorish" stamp set. Behind it, I placed a piece of embossed leftover paper from another project. I also used one of Spellbinders Shapeabilities Floral Fluorishes dies and finished of with a few heart-shaped bling stones.
Thanks so much for visiting today!
Hugs, Birgit

Who Wants To Move In?

fredag 5 februari 2016

Hello crafters!
Today I have something different to show you, because I have been looking around in my stash and found materials to a birdhouse.


First, I painted all the parts to the house with "lemongrass" acrylic paint, then I stamped a pattern on them with a darker green color. For the roof, I used Stampendous Fran-tage embossing pouder Shabby Blue and flakes, then all the parts were glued together.


A butterfly in canvas were sprayed with some different sprays and adhered on the roof waiting for the birds to move in:) It´s fun to do something other than cards sometimes.
Thanks for visiting today!
Hugs, Birgit

Hello there crafters!

My little monster were colored with Copics and some Glossy Accents. Dies from Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Seven was used for the book and for the sentiments I used a Mama Elephant die.

Hi everyone!
Just a quick post from me today with a card for Stampin Royaltys Picture Inspiration challenge.


I was inspired especially by the colors but also of the stripes on the cake, although mine is not at all straight. I have used the San Marzano Border die from the Memory Box and a sentiment stamp from K-designs. The red border is made of red metal paper.
As always, thank you for visiting!
Hugs, Birgit
