Thinking of you always

Hello,

I also got a card for you today.



I would like to participate in the following challenges:

I mainly got inspired by the Muse Challenge #7 - like Beverley I also used butterflies with a white outline on kraft cardstock.I did not apply a whitewash first. For this reason, the colors are brighter and less pastel looking.

Relax ...

Hi there,

this is my second card.


I used several Lawn Fawn stamp sets: Life is Good, Critters in the Sea, Hello Sunshine and Admit One and the cute little beach house is from Miss Kate Cuttables.
I love to create little scenes and I hope that you like it, too.

I am going to upload this clean and layered card to the following challenges:

Lawnscaping Challenge No. 84: Stars & Stripes


CASE Study Challenge #196


The Card Concept #12 - Use a Nautical Theme


Hope to see you again soon.

Yours,

Post 150

Good morning,

this is my 150th post - unbelievable ...

Here is a special card for you.


It really turned out sweet and lovely. I used "Two Daisies in a Bottle" from A Day for Daisies. To finish the card, I applied white faux stitching and a tiny tag with a pink heat-embossed heart around the bottleneck. I pierced two tiny holes on both sides and put some neutral twine through them - this adds dimension as well as a certain amount if interactivity, since the tag remains free to be moved.

I am going to participate in the following two challenges:

A Day for Daisies #98 - In Stitches

and

Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Sweet Pea


I hope you like the card.

Yours,
Tanja

Kitty

Hi,

I always wanted to make an acetate card. Here it is ... I used the beautiful Vintage Summer Basics Paper Pad and since I have a little daughter and four cats, this is one of my favorite digital stamps (Ali's Kitten).

I am going to link it up to the following challenges:

I would like to participate in the following challenges:

Tiddly Inks Challenge #135 - Sketch a Lou

hello baby

Hi,

here is another card that I would like to show you.


It was quite hard to photograph the "hello baby" sentiment. That's why I have some close-ups for you:

 


The card turned out to be very subtle but also very sweet. My main inspirations for this card were the Muse Challenge #71, the Color Throwdown Challenge #296 and the Curtain Call Challenge: Sweet Pea. I used four layers of the same cut - three from blue/pink cardstock and one from patterned paper with sweet little flowers. I puzzled the letters back into that same patterned paper. The stars serve as an extra embellishment made from three layers of cardstock and one layer of patterned paper with clear Wink of Stella on top. As a final touch, I added some neutral twine and the card was done.

I would like to link this card up to the following challenges:

Muse Challenge #71


Color Throwdown #296


Moving along with the Times - Keep it clean and simple

Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Sweet Pea


Here is my list of supplies:
