From Me To You

måndag 30 april 2018

Hello and welcome!
It's Monday and the last day of the month of April ... oh, how time flies! Well, I am playing along with Just Add Inks sketch challenge.
For the card I used  the Fly-By Friends stamp set from My Favourite Things, colored up the flower with my Copics and cut it out with the coordinated die. Next I cut the hug word out of the black cardstock with a Gummiapan die and adhered it with foam tape together with a piece of leftover floral paper. Finally I stamped the K-designs sentiment on the card and adhered the flower with a bit of dimension.
Thanks for stopping by!

Have A Good Day...

fredag 27 april 2018

Hello there and happy friday crafting friends!
Here´s a card that shows exactly what happens when spring comes...I want to go shopping some new clothes and shoes. It's wonderful and extra fun this season when you don´t have to wear any thick winter clothes anymore.
I have used a KennyK digi stamp and colored it up with my Copic pens. The backgound was created with Distress inks and two stencils, Tim Holtz - Rays and Dylusions - Dotted Flowers. The sentiment stamp is from Svenska Textstämplar and I have also added a paper clip in the form of a star. Okay, that´s about it, I think.
Thanks for reading and have a wonderful weekend!
Hugs, Birgit

Merry Christmas

tisdag 24 april 2018

Hi everyone!
Today's card is mainly for Muse:ChristmasVisions but also for some other challenges. Lindsey's card is really a challenge for me and I have thought a lot before this was done.
 For my card I used Tim Holtz Alterations Holiday Joý stamp/die set. I wanted some glitter so after a little bit of trying I decided to use Shabby Blue embossing pouder from Stampendous and it turned out great, I think. For the sentiment I used a Mandys die, and for the backgraound I used some old Dixi Craft papers. For that little extra I added a little twine bow and red berries.
That was all for today, thanks for stopping by!

I used Penny Black´s Mimi´s Love stamp set for my image and colored it up with Copic pens. The background was created with Distress inks and an old stripe stencil. I then die cut the sentiment from Gummiapan and added it together with a few clear sequins and Nuvo Crystal Drops.

To A Very Special Person

onsdag 18 april 2018

Hi there!
For today´s card I have pulled out some old PION design papers to create this vintage and spring inspired card.
I´m also using a couple of dies, the Memory Box "Fresh Foliage" and a bow from CraftEmotions. I´v added a frame that I created using the We R Memory Keepers "Gemstone" embossing folder and Vintage Photo Distress ink. The sentiment stamp is from Svenska Textstämplar. Nuvo  Crystal Drops adds nice accent to the card.
That´s about it, I think. Wishing you all a happy day!

söndag 15 april 2018

Hello there!
Happy Sunday! I´m popping in to share a card created for this weeks Muse Card challenge...and some other challenges as well.
I chose the Freestyle Florals stamp set from Mama Elephant for my card. First, I stamped and heat embossed the parts in white and clear embossing pouder before I watercolored them up. Next, I cut them out with the coordinating dies and adhered some parts with foam tape for dimension. I used a You Do stamp for the sentiment, and I die cut the Hello from Mama Elephant using foam and cardstock. I also added some Nuvo Crystal Drops to finish with.
As alway thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello Everyone!
Today I have a quite simple flower card for Mothers Day to share. I´m playing along with this week´s Pearls or Mother´s Day Theme challenge at Brown Sugar, Mothers Day at CAS on Friday and Make Your Mark at Addicted to Stamps and More.
I used Distress inks together with stamps from Docrafts "Trad Floral" set and Stamp "Timbres Clair" set. The K-designs sentiment was stamped in black and then clear heat embossed. I finished my card with a few light purple sequins.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs, Birgit

Hi there!
Today I have a card for the color challenge at The Paper Players .
For my card I cut out a girl from an old PION design paper by hand and adhered her with foam tape to a background created with stamps from Pinkpaislee´s Butterfly Garden set. I mixed a couple of blue and green Distress inks to get the right color. I chose to stamp the Panduro sentiment in the same color too. I finished my card with some clear sequins.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Filled With Pure Happiness

söndag 8 april 2018

Hello there crafters!
Happy Sunday! It´s a new challenge and a new muse card created by Cornelia over at Muse:ChristmasVisions, and I have a card to share using a lot of green that I love.
For my card I started with two My favourite Things stamp set, Merry Everything and Santa´s Elves. I colored up with Copic pens and cut out with the coordinated dies. I stamped the sentiments on black CS and white heat embossed them, the one in the speech bubble is from Scrapfabriken. I added foam tape to add dimension and help the reindeers to pop. I finished my card with some bling stones.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!

So Loved From The First Moment ...

torsdag 5 april 2018

Hello there crafters!
Today I have an easelcard to show you, it was a while since I did such a thing but I really like it. I used Whimsy Stamps "Love You Slow Much" stamp for the image and my Copics to color it up.
I also added some glitter and Glossy accents to the image. Then, I framed it using circle dies, old designer papers and black foam for dimension. I created the sentiments myself using my computer and adhered them together with some hearts that I die-cut out of corrugated cardboard and some leftover papers. I finished by adding a few bling stones.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs, Birgit

On Baptism Day

måndag 2 april 2018

Hi crafty friends! 
I hope you all have a wonderful Easter weekend! I have no Easter card to show today, but something completely different, a little girl should be baptized and this card is for her.
I chose to color up a couple of the images from My Favorite Things "Beary Special Birthday" stamp set with my Copics, I also added Glossy Accents and white gel pen. For the background, I choose a light shimmering silver white cardstock, die-cut the heart and then run it thru the Gemstone embossing folder from We R Memory Keepers. I love how three-dimensional it becomes! Inside the heart, I placed a piece of beautiful glittering designer paper. The sentiment stamp is from Gummiapan. To finish of I added a few enamel dots, a ribbon and sequins.
Have a great day and thanks so much for visiting!
Hugs, Birgit
