I found this gorgeous Marianne Design stamp 'Poinsettia' in an online craft shop and had to have it as I thought it'd be lovely to colour. And I was right! I stamped it onto Copic friendly cardstock and coloured it with my Copics adding a bit of white gel pen here and there. Then I used a stencil from the Background Basics stencil set by Penny Black, placed it onto my panel and sponged some Distress Oxide inks in Saltwater Taffy and Festive Berries onto it. The sentiment I used says 'Merry Christmas' in Finnish. As embellishments, I added some pink sparkly gems.

Purjevene - Sail boat
Less Is More -haasteessa on tällä viikolla meneillään värihaaste (royal blue + lime green), josta otin nämä kortin värit. Ihan täysin samoja värejä en löytänyt, mutta josko nämä olisivat tarpeeksi lähelle. Taustalle "kuvioin" kehyksen Simon Says Stampin stanssilla ja vesiroiskeet leimasin Marianne Designin leimalla. Purjevene on leimattu ja stanssattu SSS:n Sail Away -setillä ja väritetty Copiceilla. Kiinnitin sen korttipohjaan kohotarroilla. Tekstileiman leimasin vellumin palalle ja kiinnitin sen pienellä haaraniitillä.
Less Is More challenge blog has a colour challenge this week (royal blue + lime green) and I was inspired by that gorgeous combination. I didn't have anything exactly royal blue and exactly lime green in my stash but I tried to get as close to them as possible. I "embossed" a frame on the card blank with my Simon Says Stamp die and added the water splashes with a Marianne Design stamp and some Hero Arts ink. The sail boat is stamped and die cut with the 'Sail Away' set by Simon Says Stamp and I coloured it with my Copics before attaching it to the card blank with some foam adhesives. I stamped my sentiment (loosely translated as 'Greetings') on a strip of vellum and attached it with a tiny silver brad.
Haasteet/Challenges:
* Less Is More: Challenge #344 - Colour Challenge Royal Blue and Lime Green
* CASology: Week 264 - Square
* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes
* Simon Says Stamp Flickr Challenge #79: Just Stamp It

Kiitos, kun käväisit. Mukavaa viikon alkua! :)
Thanks for your visit. Have a fab Monday! :)

Robotti - Robot
Tässä simppeli 10 vuotta täyttäneelle veljenpojalle mennyt kortti. Taittelin korttipohjan vesivärikartongista, leimasin siihen tuon Tim Holtzin robotin, maskasin sen ja leimasin taustalle Marianne Designin leimalla. Väritys Distress Markereilla, tekstileima ja leimatut numerot ja lisäksi vielä tippaset mustaa enamel accentsia ja siinäpä se.
I made this birthday card for my nephew who turned 10. I folded the card out of watercolour cardstock, stamped the Tim Holtz robot onto it, masked the robot and stamped the background. I then coloured the image with Distress Markers, stamped the sentiment and the numbers and added drops of black enamel dots to finish the card.
Haasteet/Challenges:
* Happy Little Stampers: June Watercolour Challenge - Anything Goes, optional twist - mask
* The Paper Players: Theme Challenge #347 - Birthday
* Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Masculine
* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Make It Masculine
Kiitos, kun käväisit. Mukavaa perjantaita! :)

Vauvoja, vauvoja! - Babies, babies!
Vauvat ovat jotenkin "olleet tapetilla" viime aikoina ja minua on pyydetty tekemään useampikin vauvakortti, tässä niistä osa. Paperit kaikissa näissä on Crate Paperin, leimakuvat Marianne Designin ja väritetty Distress Markereilla, chipboard-kuviot Wycinankan. Lisänä hieman kukkaa, nappia, narua, enamel dotseja ja höyheniä.
Babies, babies, babies! :) I've been asked to make quite a few baby-related cards lately, these ones congratulate on a new baby girl. The patterned papers on all these are by Crate Paper, the stamped images are by Marianne Design and coloured with Distress Markers, the chipboard elements are by Wycinanka. As additional elements there are flowers, buttons, twine, enamel dots, feathers...

Vauva ja höyhen - A feather and a baby
Kaverini sai pienen poikavauvan ja onnitellakseni tein hänelle tällaisen kortin. Olen jotenkin tykästynyt näihin pieniin ympyräkortteihin vauvakortteina, jotenkin pienelle ja suloiselle sopii tällainen pieni ja suloinen muoto. Korttipohjan tähän stanssasin Papermanian tekstuuripintaisesta kartongista, samanlaista tekstuuripintaista kartonkia on myös sininen ympyrä. Pallopaperi taasen on Echo Parkia. Leimakuva on Marianne Designsin ja väritetty Distress Markereilla, kiinnitin sen tarrapaloilla valkoisen höyhenen päälle. Lisäksi muutama Simon Says Stampin stanssilla stanssattu sydän, joissa on kirkasta Wink of Stella -kimallekynää päällä, ja tekstileima.
A friend of mine had a baby boy not long ago and I made her this card to congratulate. I really like these small and round cards for baby cards, it's somehow a sweet shape of a card for sweet tiny babies :) I made the card base by die cutting some white textured cardstock by Papermania with a round die. The blue cardstock is also textured cardstock by Papermania and the dotted paper is by Echo Park. The baby image is stamped with a stamp by Marianne Designs and I coloured it with Distress Markers and attached it onto a small white feather with foam adhesives. As additional embellies, there are some die cut hearts (a die by Simon Says Stamp) covered in clear Wink of Stella glitter brush pen. The sentiment says 'Congrats on your baby' in Finnish.

Kuka vaihtaa vaippoja - Who's changing diapers
No mitä ilmeisimmin joku miehen töistä, sillä sinne tilattiin onnittelukortti poikavauvalle :) Tein sitten kaksi hieman erilaista kortti, joista valita. Tässä ensimmäisessä käytin tuota DoodleFactory ihanaa vaippasankaria, jonka väritin Distress Markereilla ja kiinnitin tarrapaloilla. Sydän on stanssattu Sizzixin stanssilla ja kuorrutettu Distress Glitterillä (onko mitään kauniimpaa kuin Distress Glitter Peacock Feathers -värisenä!? Ei ole! :) ) ja banneri on stanssattu ensin kartongista ja sitten vellumista siihen päälle, tekstileiman laitoin vellumiin. Paperit on My Mind's Eyetä ja lisänä chipboard-tähtiä (Wycinankalta) ja timantteja.
Well, someone from my hubby's workplace apparently as they asked me to make a card for a baby boy :) I made two slightly different cards for them to choose from. For this first card, I used the lovely little Beepo from DoodleFactory and coloured him with Distress Markers and used some foam adhesives to attach him to the card. I diecut the heart with a Sizzix die and covered it in Distress Glitter (is there anything prettier than Distress Glitter in Peacock Feathers? Well, quite frankly, no! :) ). Then I diecut two fishtail banners, one from teal cardstock and one from vellum and placed them on top of each other, the sentiment ('Congrats on your baby') is stamped on the vellum. The papers I used are by My Mind's Eye and as embellies there are chipboard stars (by Wycinanka) and some rhinestones.
Haaste/Challenge:
*Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: We're going dotty!
Tämä toinen kortti taitaa olla aavistuksen perinteisempi sekä leimakuvaltaan että väreiltään. Leimakuva on Marianne Designsin ja väritetty taas Distress Markereilla, kiinnitetty tarrapaloilla. Paperit on My Mind's Eyetä ja October Afternoonia, koristeina muutama paljetti.
This second card is somewhat more traditional with its colours and stamped image. The baby is a stamp by Marianne Designs and I coloured him with Distress Markers and attached with foam adhesives. The papers I used are by My Mind's Eye and October Afternoon and as embellies there are a few sequins. The sentiment says 'Congrats on your baby'.

10 varvasta ja pyöreät posket - 10 little toes and round cheeks
Enpä ole ollut kiltti bloggaaja viime aikoina, en. Puolustukseksi sanottakoon, että olen kyllä tehnyt kortteja mutta en vain ole ehtinyt blogata niitä (olisiko kenelläkään myydä pari ylimääräistä tuntia vuorokauteen..?). Hyvitykseksi laiminlyönnistä postaan nyt sitten kolme korttia kerralla, kaikki vauvakortteja tyttövauvalle. Työkaveri tilasi tyttövauvalle kortin ja tein sitten muutaman erilaisen, joista hän saattoi valita mieluisimman.
I have been such a bad blogger lately! I have made cards but I just haven't had time to blog them (anyone got a couple of extra hours to sell to me, anyone..?). As a way of an apology I have not one, but three cards to show you this time. A co-worker of mine asked me to make a baby card for a baby girl, so I made three of them for her to choose from.
Tämä ensimmäinen kuuluu mielestäni "vähemmän on enemmän" -kastiin. Korttipohjan tein Bazzillin valkoisesta kartongista, vaaleanpunainen kartonki on myös Bazzillia. Leima on Hero Artsin ihana Baby footprints. Koristeena on vain leveä satiininauha.
This first card belongs to the "less is more" category. I made the card blank from Bazzill's white cardstock, and the pink cardstock is Bazzill's as well. The adorable rubber stamp is called Baby footprints by Hero Arts and the only embellishment is the wide satin ribbon.

Seuraavan kortin söpöinen leimasin on Marianne Designin Eline's babies. Paperi on BasicGreytä ja kuvioreuna leikattu Martha Stewartin boordileikkurilla. Lisäksi sydännappeja ja valkoista fun flockia vauvan tyynyssä - pitäähän sitä nyt pehmeä tyyny olla... :) Osallistun tällä kortilla tämänviikkoiseen P*skarteluhaasteeseen, jossa teemana on napit.
The cute stamp in this next one is Marianne Design's Eline's babies. The paper is by BasicGrey and I decorated the edge by punching it with Martha Stewart's border punch. Then I added some heart shaped buttons and some white fun flock to her pillow - one has to have a fluffy pillow, right? :) I submit this card to the P*skarteluhaaste (a Finnish challenge blog), the challenge this time is to use buttons.

Tästä viimeisestä kortista tuli minulle mieluisin. Leimasin on ihana Sunday Internationalin Sleeping baby, paperi BasicGreytä. Lisäksi hieman pitsiä, itsetehty korupiikki ja paperikukkia (ne eivät ole oikeasti niin ärhäkän vaaleanpunaisia kuin kuvassa vaan sopivat paremmin kokonaisuuteen). Ja koska tämä kortti on oma lempparini, osallistun sillä Stampin' for the weekend -haasteblogin haasteeseen nro 13 - aiheena vauvateema!
I think I like this last card the best. The stamp is Sunday International's adorable Sleeping baby, the paper is by BasicGrey. I added some lace, a self-made pin and paper flowers to it (the paper flowers aren't so pink in real life, they do match the card better than the picture shows). And this being my favourite of these three baby cards, I submit it to the Stampin' for the weekend challenge number 13 - the challenge is to do something baby themed.

Vaaleanpunaista ja vauvaista siis tällä kertaa. Mukavaa loppuviikkoa ja kiitos, kun kävit! :)
