Two people...

Hi!

Today I have made two cards. This is number one. And I just wanted to place them on my blog, so that I can participate in the following challenges:

Friday Sketchers: for the beautiful sketch

My time to craft: use some Glitter & Glitz!

Sentimental Sundays: Ribbon or Lace (and a sentiment of course)

I will tell you more about this card later on, OK?!

Thanks.

Bye, bye!!

Celebrate the moments

The other day my mother had her birthday, so I made her a card. And because she just loves purple, was it not difficult to choose the coloursetting. I saw a beautiful sketch in Magnolia Ink which I used.

I would like to enter in the following challenges:

Flutter by Wednesday: open challenge with butterflies

Derwent: everything goes, but colour with Derwent pencils

I decorated with some flowers, leaves and buttons. 

Because she has 3 granddaughter (my 3 girls), I decided to mask 3 Ollyfant-girls for her card. A little indiangirl, a farmergirl and a citygirl, coloured with my favourite Derwent pencils.

skin: 170-190-620

cheeks: 180

hair indiangirl: 590-630

hair farmergirl: 530-630

hair citygirl: 570-560-580-530

green: 440-420

purple: 230-260-280

The sentiment is from Technique Tuesday and I used paper from Marianne Design.

For the inside I punched out 3 circles and placed them together with yet another Technique Tuesday-sentiment.

And of course on the back my personal stamp.

My mother was very happy with her presents AND card. Tell me please what you think?!

Thanks!!

Stoer

For a little boy I made this card with a knight on it. 

The shape of the card is a pennant as seen on the top of a knight's castle. The front of the card I cut out with my Silhouette. And I draw back and cut it out by hand. To dress the card I placed a nice red feather on top.

I made a ticket with "stoer" on it. It means tough in dutch. 

Here you can see the inside of the card. I used paper that "changes" from red to white. 

And to emphasize the ticket I used a chipboard diecut from Basic Grey. I painted it with my dabbers and sprayed with some pearl Glimmer mist.

The knight in shining armour was a little bit difficult to colour. But I managed to get the job done!

skin: 180+610

armour: 660+670+690

feather and shield: 100+120

shadow: 360

ground: 530

and I used my silver pen and white pen

Do you like my though guy? I do!!

Blog candy at Janneke!

Just for fun! Isn't she sweet, Janneke? 

Go visit her here for the details and participate in her generosity.

Take good care

I already started this card last tuesday, but I've just finished it today. I had a very bad toothache and it appeared to be an infection of my jaw. But after a visit to the dentist and with some penicillin I made it through the week. 

Back to my card. This sweet round sketch I saw on Mojo Monday. I cannot enter anymore because it is an oldie, but I love it. Specifically the symmetry. But I can enter this one to the following challenges:

Alphabeth Challenge: O for Oval

Derwent: use green, pink and a round shape

Flutterby Wednesday butterfly and (my daughters) favourite colour (which is pink :-))

Fussy and Fancy: use pink and black

I used designpaper from Marianne design, Eline's babies pink and added some black cardstock.

This pretty flower is a Silhouette-one. I cut it out with my Sil, sprayed some water on the petals and rumpled them up so I could get some 3D effect. It is a beauty this flower. I used it for the first time her, but I'm sure I will use it more in the future. Also the black border is cut with my Silhouette. 

The sentiment is from Hero Arts and the three little butterflies on the card are made with a punch from TomTas. 

 The white oval is stamped with a nice swirl with distress ink.This Magnolia girl is coloured in matching colours of course. 

Using the following colours:

skin: 170-190-620

hair: 700-660-650

cheeks: 200

sweater and socks: 190-210

trousers: 490-470

When it was finished I sprayed the whole card extensively with glimmermist. I tried to make a good picture, but I don't know if you can see it, but it is sparkling this card!

Will you let me know what you think of this card? I do so appreciate it. I love to read your comments. 

Thanks for stopping by!!

Splash!

This last card for today is an entry for the challenge at Scrappekammeret. My dear friend Linda made a sketch and of course I had to use it!! I also want to enter it at Sentimental Sundays. A newly found challengeblog, where the challenge this week is to make a playfull card. 

This sweet boy is going to the beach and he is taking his sailingboat with him. He and his boat are Ollyfant stamps. The cloud is me drawing a little bit ;-) At the old blog from Inge I read the other day about chalking the shadows around a stamp. I used this technique here on the blue sky and sandy beach. 

Do I have to say that I coloured again with my Derwent coloursoft pencils? Nope....

skin: 170-190-620

hair: 530-640

sweater and flag: 130

shorts and boat: 340-310

sail: 450

rope and wood: 530

sand: 580

For the sentiment was not enough room to place it in sight on my card, so I made a tag with my Silhouette, which you can take out. This sentiment is a freebie on Create with TLC. 

I decorated the inside with some punched circles from the designpaper.

So what do you think of this summerly card? Let me know, OK?! 

Thanks again!!

Tro, håp og kjærlighet

"Faith, hope and love", another weddingcard. 

This one I liked to enter to the challenge on Double Dutch Challenges. 

You can almost not see it, but the designpaper has glitter on it. Very beautiful. It is from My Minds Eye. The circle I cut with my Silhouette SD. 

I used some lace and red scrappersfloss. On the aquaflowers and the silk roses I put some stickles.

My friend sent this stamped image to me aswell. Tilda and Edwin, they are so sweet don't you think, so in love!

skinn: 170-190-620

cheeks: 200

hair: 570-560-580 + 530 for him

dress: 010

blouse: 710

trousers: 390

roses: 130

shoes: 560

The sentiment is a stamp from Norsk Stempelblad (12B), I borrowed from my mother! You can see her the glitter on the designpaper. 

Thanks for your visit!
