Frozen....

Hello everyone!

Honestly, I'd be ready for spring with its warming sun, the blooming flowers and outdoor times. But I know that we are still in the middle of winter and so I made a winter card today to share with you:

I thought, since I'm doing winter I'm doing it thoroughly and so I only used white and light turquoise combined with a hint of a grey-ish blue. 

I made a round card - when I started I wasn't sure if I wanted to make a lollipop flower or not. So I started with a large doily and put a paper rosette made from white cardstock on top of it. I ended up with just a card but if I change my mind I can still put a paper straw between the sections of the paper rosette.

The papers I used are all the light ones I was able to find in the Winter Feelings No 59 and No 60 paper pads by Studio Light. I've cut them in different shapes and put them on top of each other. And yes, even if there is no cheesecloth - I made this card! ;) But I had to put some lace between the papers...

This is Frozen Tilda - and when I first saw her I knew I needed to give her a home. She's just too cute! I've colored her in with Copics and cut her out. 

Behind the large circle I've also put the Pine Trees by Joycrafts and added a few flowers here.

On the right side I used one of the Landscape die, put it across the card and then added a few flowers - open roses and pixie blooms - here. I also wanted to use something different than just flowers and so I went with one of the stars made from birch bark. To make it match the colors on my card I've covered it with white Gesso.

And then I also needed some decorations on the top of the card. I used the new Invitation die by Magnolia here. It cuts two slits in one half and I used these to put the wax cord through. Then I've wrapped it around the "invitation" and tied a bow from it. I also used the heart shaped tag - the one that can be opened - here and tied it to the bow. The mittens in the background are from one of the older DooHickey Club kits. But I just needed to add them since they match so perfectly in theme.

Have a happy, frosty winter day eveyone!

Hugs, Kathrin

Good morning!!

It's Friday and is  my turn to share some inspiration with you!

I've made a card with Pion Design Legends of the Sea paper pads and one of my old Magnolia stamps.

All dies used are from Little Darlings Rubber Stamps collection... all listed below my post.
I've added just three flowers to embellish my card and some gesso.
I think that's enough.

Have a beautiful weekend!
Hugs, Barbara GR

Flower Bouquet

Hello and good morning, while it was so hot outside I enjoyed my craftroom and makig some Foamiran flowers. It was so fun to make them. This time I used ivory and olive green. I added some red and green color to the ivory foam. For my card I also used the new gorgeous 'Patchwork of Life' Pion Design papers and the Scrapiniec Fantasma 2 Layer Frame.

And some close ups of the flowers...

Thank you very much for your visit. Have a happy day.
Hugs, Karina

Anchor's Away

Hello everyone how are you all?

Hope you all had a lovely weekend, we had a really nice one, out with all the family & both the family dogs on Saturday & then spent the day with family again on Sunday & had a BBQ at mine, love weekends.

Ok less babbling & lets show you what I've made with products from Noor Design UK. Today I have a more male inspired card for you.........yep less foofiness lol. I sometimes find male cards hard but I do think Pion Design make male cards easier with their gorgeous papers.

Excuse my photo's I'm in the middle of re-designing my craft room & have not set up an area for my light tent & lights yet, so this is took with my main lights on & we fitted LED lights under the units which help sooooo much, especially when crafting.

I love this collection.....ok I love most of Pion's collection lol. This collection is 'Legends Of The Sea' but the 'Happy Birthday' tag is from the Mr Tom's Treasure's Collection.

All links are below to take you to the products I've used

For the centre I used an 'Anchor' image from Images From The Past & added foam pads underneath to raise it up. Under that I cut out a rectangle using a Fantasy Die from the same sheet I used for the card which is 'Aye Aye Captain' & raised that too to give it all dimension.

The boat at the bottom I fussy cut from the Aye Aye Captain sheet & popped it onto foam pads & underneath I cut out seaweed from Foamiran.

The Anchor, Lighthouse & Seagull are cut from Joy Crafts dies.

The tag I cut from Pion Mr Tom's Treasures 'Mr Tom's Memory's Notes'. I punched a hole through it, added an eyelet & then a keyring from my stash hooked onto a Tim Holtz Clip.

I cut the corner from a Joy Crafts corner die. I also added bubbles here & there using Structure Paste & a mask art stencil that Tracy can order in if you would like it.

Thats it form me, thank you so much for stopping by.

Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx
