Love

Hi there,

I created this card for Mennys Bastelshop. For the letters I used leftover parts from another project:

• adhere the leftover letters from the Crafty Chick Shaker project to a panel of patterned paper
• layer it on top of kraft cardstock and adhere it to a grass cardstock cardbase
• stamp the little dog from the My Favorite Things Crafty Friends set with Gina K. Designs Obsidian
• color the image with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen

Have a wonderful day.

Hugs,

Deepest Sympathy

Love Box

Hi there,

I had this idea about creating little affirmation cards for my daughter and then I thought that I would need a cute box to put them in. For Mennys Bastelshop I would like to show you how I created this box using the My Favorite Things Everyday Gift Box die set:

• cut out the My Favorite Things Everyday Gift Box from kraft cardstock
• create a shaker element behind the opening using acetate and double-sided foam adhesive
• fill the shaker element with sequins and clay hearts and close the element with an embossed background
• cut out the Lawn Fawn Scripty Love from Grass Cardstock and ink up the bottom part with Distress Ink Ground Espresso

I will show you the affirmation cards that I put in this box in the upcoming weeks. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs,
