My Last Project

Hi friends!

With this little card I want to thank you all for this year!

Thank you for your support and kindness you have shown me by visiting the Inkido blog and leaving comments!
 

 

This card folding are called "Magic Window".

All the stuff are available from PaperCraftScandinavia, as usual:)

 

 

When you open the card to see if it's something nice on the inside, occurs something in a little magical window inside the card itself. Two pennants are pulled aside so the motif of the circle appears.

 

Now I just want to wish you all a very Happy New Year, with plenty of time to spend in your crafting room!

Stay healthy and happy!

Hugs, Birgit

 

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

 

 



Christmas Greetings

 

Hello, well...first of all, as the time gets closer to Christmas, I like to wish you all a Merry Christmas!

This is my last post before Christmas here on the blog.

I needed something to put a gift in so I took a pretty ugly bag and fixed it with stuff from PaperCraft Scandinavia.

I apologize for the slightly dark pictures, it's so bad daylight right now.

 

 

First I covered it with a layer Gesso and adhered the papers. Then I went loose with the glue gun and lots of flowers:)

 

 

It is a pity that the red glitter is not so visible in the pictures, the red roses glistening just wonderful!

 

 

 

Well I hope you take some time for yourself too these busy days, stay crafty and bee happy! 

Merry Christmas to you and yours!!

Hugs, Birgit

 



Hear Angels' song

 

Good Friday morning,friends! I would like to show you my new card made of a paper bag. I hope that the person who receives this will be surprised, and like it too.

 

 

The brown colors gives it a nice vintage look, and it is great with room for a personal greeting on the tag

Most of the accessory supplies can be found at PaperCraft Scandinavia. 

 

 

I let the angel wing to be outside the die cut frame to get more depth. And then the gold glitter, I love it!

 

 

 Thanks for your visit today! I hope you will come back to see what the other designers have to show.

Hugs, Birgit

 

 



Mistletoe Kiss

Hello dear blogging friends!

It´s Friday again and I´m popping in to share a center step card I created in a vintage - retro Christmas style.

 

 

I absolutely adore this image! I layered it in with some matching papers from the Coming Home For Christmas collection, lace, flowers and white die cuts.

 

 

The tag was also cut out from one of the papers and stamped with the stamp called "öppnas 24".

 

 

To finish of, I added 3D snow and glitter on top of the roses.

I had intended to show the inside, but just found out that I did not take any pictures of it. Clumsy of me! (If I have time I'll update later with a picture.)

 

Here is now the promised inside:)

 

I hope you will come back to see other fantastic projects made by the members in the design team.

Have a wonderful weekend my friends!!

Hugs, Birgit


Birthday Present

 

 

Hello, It´s my turn to share on the Inkido blog again.

This time I wrapped a birthday gift that I will give away in a paper from last year's Forever Christmas collection, I love this paper.

I added swirls made with Spellbinders dies, and sweet flowers.

A pair of heart pins was also adhered.

 

 

A sentiment were stamped on white cardstock and cut to a tag, then it was adhered together with tied paper twine.

Gift Bag For Christmas Presents

Hi again, I´m back with my Friday post for Inkido.

I must admit that I like my Fridays here, maybe I can inspire someone to create something over the weekend:)

And today I have made ​​a gift bag, perfect for all Christmas presents that will soon be purchased.

 

 

The papers are all from the Forever Santa and Coming Home For Christmas collections.

The girl image is super cute, I think.

 

 

I cut out tags from the papers and stamped one of them with a Christmas sentiment. A star in corrugated cardboard was adhered over the lovely lace.

I finished of with flowers and brown moss.

And that is all from me today! Have a great weekend!

Hugs, Birgit

A Merry Christmas

 

 

Welcome to my Friday post for Inkido!

This week I have created a Christmas card and had some fun with all the papers and stamps from PaperCraftScandinavia for this one.

 

 

 

I´m loving these glittery Christmas cards. I´ve used a variety of the new paper patterns and mix and matched them....even for the inside.

 

 

 

 

I just want to remind everyone of this months challenge, and it´s about Butterflies. I hope you will join in the fun, you find it HERE.

And we are welcoming our new designer from Scrap Therapy, hope you will stop by her blog and give her some love.

Christmas Card

Hello friends!

I hope you have a great weekend planned weather it will be crafting or just spend some time outside enjoying some of the lovely autumn air .

Today I can share a new Christmas card. I combined a couple of the new 6x6 papers from the Coming Home For Christmas collection.

 

 

 I decorated my card with a wide satin ribbon, some flowers, lace and a lot of Star Dust Stickles.

I think it becomes so nice with glitter to Christmas cards.

 

 

I first painted the chipboard star with white crackle paint, and then directly before the paint being dry I sprinkled over glitter.

 

 

 Here is a peek on the inside.

 

 

 Thanks so much för visiting! Hope you enjoyed my first Christmas card with the new papers. I promise that there will be many more, both by me but also by my DT friends.

Hugs, Birgit



You Are An Angel

Hello everyone and welcome back!

I decided to make a tag this time for my weekly post.

 

I started by stamping a text on the upper part of a tag and then sponged the edges.

Then I chose one of those lovely vintage images from Papercraftscandinavia and stitched it onto a piece of embroidered linen. I colored in a piece of  lace with pink distress ink. and added it to the bottom of my tag.

A sentiment was stamped and heat embossed. After I had cut it out and sponged the edges it was adhered together with pearls.

 

For the metal corner I used white embossing powder and heated in. I also added Pins, Pearl straw, Ribbon and a Flower with Stickles on.

Hope you all have a great weekend! Thanks for looking!

Hugs, Birgit

Recycling

Hello and happy Friday!

What can you make out of an old milk carton?

 

 

Well, you can make a box house.

 

I made the box with a detachable roof which can be snugly fitted back on the top of the house shaped box, so that you can fill it with candy or anything else that you want to give away.

 

Yummy, yummi...

 

 

Here is the backside and the gable of the house, I used a lot of flowers on the base.

 

 

I added punchcrafted butterflies, the door and windows were cut from corrugated cardboard.

 

 

On the front top of the roof I made a tag by stamping on a paper heart, and then sponged the edges.

 

 

And this is the backside...

 

 

It struck me now that this was the second project in a row from me, where I devoted myself to recycling. That´s great! Hope you also got some inspiration and enjoyed yet another recycling project.

Hugs, Birgit
