Birthday Card

Hi peeps,

Hope you all had a splendid Easter,

I am enjoying some time off work this week,

the sun is shining here,

so it´s all good...

Here is a Birthday card I made after a request, travelling and birthday card for Simon 20. How do you think I did?

I used last month´s freebie from KennyK, called Cool Kid. If you haven´t grabbed April´s freebie jump over here, and do so!!! I am sure you don´t want to miss out.

I made another center step cards - must say I love them! Papers are old American Craft. I used clear stamps from KaiserKraft to add a bit more travel theme.

This is the inside of the card.

I have coloured with ProMarkers as I mostly do. I added some glossy accent on the letters and the number to make them look more like thickers.

it´s

ANYTHING GOES

I have used an image from Sassy Studio Design to make

this Birthday card to my dd who loves Frozen!

I have used papers from BoBunny and a new to me dies from Memory Box.

Used stickles around the edge of the image and on her dress to make it sparkle. Also used a few rhinestones on top of the die cuts.

DT card for En Liten Butik

Hi Peeps,

It´s my cousin´s Birthday today

and this is the card I made for him.

I used an image from KennyK called Party Time.

I decided to try to make a metal background. I started with getting a few patterns with help of some embossing folders and some dies. Also added some punchinella. You can find one of the embossing folders here at En Liten butik, where I am a DT.

You can also find a gear set die there.

I then added smaller bits of silver tape over my background. I used a cotton bud to get the tape to go down between all the textures.

When that´s done. Paint the background with black acrylic paint. Take a bit of paper and wipe it of. That makes the metal look a bit worn.

I have coloured the image with ProMarkers

and then fussy cut it.

Fairy light

Hello Peeps,

it´s Friday again and it´s a grey and gloomy day here in Sweden.

Where is spring? Please come back with your sunshine, twittering birds and pretty flowers....

I´ll do my best to light up this day and starting off

with the new challenge over at

CRAFTY CATZ

this week´s theme is picked by our talented Naomi

but first let me tell you about our sponsor

MAKE IT CRAFTY

prize : winner of your challenge a $10 gift certificate to spend at the Make it Crafty store

Theme: Whimsical Fantasy

( like fairies, elves or houses slightly less than normal looking)

I have used an image called Ella Faye so kindly given to me by Make it Crafty, thank you so much!

I made this light holder out of an old coffee cup.

I printed out the digi twice but turned on of the copies around so that you can see her from both sides of the cup. I have coloured with ProMarkers.

I used a lot of different things to embellish this cup. Flowers from En Liten Butik, a little glas bottle (I put a bit of paper with writing on it inside of the bottle), shells, pearls, cinnamon and glas pebbles.
