Love

A couple of weeks ago Judith sent me a birthday card and a little present which made me very happy: Lawn Fawn's word die 'Love'. This weekend I created two cards with the die.

For the first card I made a background using a sponge dauber and SU ink. I just draw stripes. I die cut a circle out of vellum, added thread and stamped a small heart, also from Lawn Fawn. I finally adhered the die cut with some foam tape to the circle.

The second card is a shaker card. I die cut tiny hearts with a Lawn Fawn border die and mixed those hearts with sequins. I created a design paper with glimmer mist and a mask (yep, did it before here  )

Did you know that when you rub the transparency sheet, the little hearts stick to the sheet? So, they won't fall down at the bottom of the shaker part!

At DCL they challenged us to use a transparency sheet, well here it is!

Judith, thanks a lot for this present!

Love - DCL#219

I made a card with two little critters from the Lawn Fawn's Into the Wood set. I think they are in love! I stamped a background with the word 'love' made with Lawn Fawn's Milo's ABC in grey and once in red. I added a little glimmer at the wood veneer heart, made a 'circle' with some thread and finished it with a nice yellow stripe motif.
The new challenge at Dutch Card Lovers is all about text. As I don't possess quote stamps, I created a background with text.

Crazy for Cas #54 - wobble card

I admit I wasn't very happy with the new challenge at Crazy for Cas - make a wobble card. I'm not really fond of it because I don't have big circle dies or a circle cutter and I find it hard to make it CAS. However, it is a challenge, so I took it and I came up with a mini version! I used my biggest nestability-circles and made the 'wobble' by folding it. In the middle of the white circle I stamped 'love' with Lawn Fawn's Milo - ABC. From there I stamped with a very little heart stamp (also Lawn Fawn) in red and pinks.
In my opinion quite a CAS wobble card!

Enjoy your Saturday!

Today's card is made for a wedding anniversary. I gave it a bit of a romantic look by using pinks and reds, hearts and and a lovely 'love' die from Clearly Besotted Stamps. Creating a background with daubers is so easy to do and I love the effect. In my previous post, I sponged the ink on watercolour paper. For this card I used smooth cardstock. Both work fine! The little hearts are stamped with a little stamp from a Lawn Fawn set. The bigger heart is from MFT. Designpaper is from Glitz Design.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hearts!

Today I've got hearts for you! I die cut small hearts with a Lawn Fawn die out of a Stampin Up paper pad. The word dies are from Clearly Besotted Stamps. For the first card I used a 'happy' stamp from PTI. It was a long time ago since I used some ribbon on my cards, so I added a nice bow on the second card.

With these cards, I'd like to participate in the current CAS-challenge at the Addicted to Stamps-blog.

Thanks for coming by and enjoy your weekend!

Banners

A few weeks ago I won a give- away at Marit's blog. I received  the prize, a Stampin Up Banner Punch and Banner Blast stamp set last Saturday. Thank you, Marit!

I immediately made a card with the set and came up with this idea:

Can you believe that these banners are stamped? It looks like patterned papers! I used Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Melon Mambo inks from SU. The love-banners are embossed with gold powder. The strips of paper at the top and bottom of the cars are from Stampin Up as well. I link this card to the SU-per challenge blog where they ask to use red, dark pink and yellow. Well, I don't have the same colours as they have used, but hopefully this card fits in the their theme.

Today starts the new Stampin Up catalogue. If you would like to have some information, hop over quickly to Marit's blog.
