Anniversary Card

Good morning!  Today I'd like to share another card I made for my parents' 50th Golden Wedding Anniversary a few weeks ago.  I have used some gorgeous papers from the Maja Design Celebration paper collection and one of my favourite Stempelglede stamps from the Grunge Flourish Hearts Collection.

I embossed the Grunge Heart with gold embossing powder twice: onto white cardstock and onto vellum.  I cut out the centre heart from the vellum and have placed it over the top of the first.

 The paper lily of the valley was cut from an old paper from my stash and I have used added a few pretty flowers too.  I made the 50 myself with small half gems.

I added a seam binding bow and a resin Eiffel Tower along with some gorgeous deep lace from Craft Heaven.

The Happy Anniversary sentiment was cut from the bottom of the Maja Design paper.

The 'tickets' peeping out from beneath the lace were also cut from the Maja Design paper.

 I also added some cheesecloth and a doily from my stash for extra texture at the bottom of the card.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking! x

Vintage Style Leaving Cards

Good morning!  Today I have two cards for the price of one to share with you!  I made these cards for two of my colleagues who left last month to move on to pastures new.  I love this Stempelglede sentiment from the Follow Your Heart set for 'Sorry you're leaving' cards.  

I have used Maja Design Celebration Papers for both cards.  The cards were cut with a Magnolia Doohickey frame die from Volume 13.

I have used some beautiful lace from Craft Heaven on both cards along with Scrapiniec chipboard pieces.

This piece is from the Spring Prodigy set...

...and this one is from the Mehendi Borders set.

I have stamped butterflies from Stempelglede's Vintage Baby and Have A Beautiful Day stamp sets onto coffee filter paper to adorn both cards.

I have also added small blue roses and larger white and pink roses along with some hydrangeas from my stash.

 I hope you like them both...

 ...and thanks for looking! x

Happy Father's Day

 Good evening!  Today I have my latest card for Craft Heaven to share with you.  It was Father's Day here in the UK last weekend and this is the card I made for my dad.  I have used Maja Design's Denim Collection papers and stamps from Stempelglede, both available from Craft Heaven.

 I have used the Happy Father's Day text from Stempelglede's Have a Beautiful Day collection as the main focus of the card.

 The stamps were stamped with another Stempelglede stamp from the Postcard from Paris collection.

 The text is also from the Postcard from Paris collection.  The button was cut with a Tim Holtz die and I added some twine from my stash.

I hope you like it and I've inspired you to have a go at those very tricky male cards.  I always struggle to decide what to put on them.  Thanks for looking! x

Sweet ...

Hello,

 

sorry, I'm bit later today...

But know I can show you my brand new card for today.

You look right, it's no Tilda on my card ;) It's a stamp from Kraftin' Kimmie. I thought she is perfect for the new Celebration collection from Maja Design. I just love all the patterns and colours. I decided to use pink and turquoise tones for this card. It looks so nice together and fits perfectly to the theme SWEETS.

 

 

I coloured the image with my Distress Inks and cut it out. The shape of my card I made with a Go Kreate cutting die. For the frame I used a cutting die from MFT. All the other dies are from Magnolia.

Behind the image are hide two tags. The tags have two sentiments from Stempelglede on it.

 

Behind the image I put some Scrapinec Chipboard. The sentiment SWEET is a cutting die from Kesi Art.

 

Is the little Sandal charm not cute? Love to hang such little highlights on my tags.

 

Hope you like my card and we see us soon.

Tilda Throws Away Hearts

 Good morning!  Today I'd like to share my card for the Craft Heaven blog using papers from Maja Design and the sweet Tilda Throws Away Hearts from Magnolia.  The card shape was cut with a Doohickey frame die from Vintage Box 5.

 I painted Tilda with Distress Inks using the no lines technique as always.  I've added some lace details to her dress using a white gel pen.

 The sentiment is from the Stempelglede Just a Note stamp set.  The butterflies were cut with a Martha Stewart punch and the rose and the flowers were cut with Doohickey dies.

I also added some lace and a chipboard piece from Craft Heaven along with some button twine and a white and pink rose.  The flowers were made from ecru foamiran and pink stamens. 

I hope you like it and I've inspired you to join us at Craft Heaven for this month's challenge.  Pop over to the blog for more inspiration.

Thanks for looking! x

Cotton Candy Tilda

Hello,

 

today I have a new inspiration to show. How I said once before, I really love the new Class Trip Collection. This cutie is Cotton Candy Tilda and she reminds me on myself as little child. I loved this kind of sweets. But today I don't like it anymore.

 

 

I coloured Tilda with my Distress Inks. I decided to use for this card as main colour aqauamarine. It's such a pretty colour but I use her too less... This have to be changed *lol*.

The pretty patterned papers are from Majas Denim Collection and is called  Streetwear denim Friends.

The frame is made with a cutting die from My Favorite Things (Die-Namics). I stamped the sentiment from  Stempelglede - Have a beautiful day inside the frame. It looks so beautiful.

 

The Bloomy tags on the right are movable. I also stamped two sentiments on them (pic in the post below).

 

The beautiful flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts.

 

Hugs

Sightseeing Tilda

Good morning,

one day later as usuall I'm back with a new card for you.

Have you seen the new collection from Magnolia? It's called Class Tripp Collection. I love it!

My first choice to colour up was Sightseeing Tilda. She is so cute with her little camera. It's long time ago since I coloured red hair, but I thought she would be look fantastic with red hair. What do you think?

I used many different paper from Maja's Celebration Collection,

On this card I cut out Tilda and created a little scene with different cutting dies from Magnolia. They are the cutest cutting dies of all.

I like flowers on my cards. So I put a lot of different ones on this card.

The pretty sentiment chipboard is from Scrapiniec and called For my lovely friend.  

The two Bloomy tags are movable. I stamped on two sentiments from Stempelglede: Follow your heart and Just a note.

Have a nice weekend.

Hugs

Susen
