Bursdagskort - Papirdesign

Jeg lager ikke ofte kort, men det hender. På Papirdesign sin blogg i går viste jeg et av disse unntakene.




Jeg fant en glassinpose som jeg sydde fast på det lilla doilyarket (Mot vår). I en skuff fant jeg noen lilla blad som har ligget der ihvertfall 5 år som jeg limte på. Chipboardteksten og hjertebuttons. Litt dots her og der også, sammen med et chipboardhjertet helt øverst. Et kort skal ikke behøve å ta veldig lang tid å lage. De fleste blir glade bare fordi det er hjemmelaget.

You are the sweetest - Paperhaus magazine

I am here today to get you in some looove mood, made for Paperhaus Magazine This is a layout to my loving 4 year old - who to me in the sweetest thing around. She is a girl who loves pink and to play dress up - she is a real princess.

When I scrap I love to use a lot of white space and color products - here I have minimized the use of color products and increased the white space.

















I have used Crate Paper for the layout. If you want to buy some Crate - old and new (or anything else) why don't you use my Paper Issues code to get 20 % off you order. Code is CHRISTIN

 

There is also a new issue over at Paper Issues.  

  

How about a project about Valentine's Day, love or a special relationship?

Do you love typewriters? Do you collect them? Show us how you've documented this, like Jen did.

Do you love fonts and typography? Is there a certain font you find yourself using over and over again? Use it on your project!

Ampersands are really trending right now. How about using some as a design element, like Martha did?However you interpret this theme, we want to see it! Link up your projects (they don't have to be newly created for this link up) between now and February 2nd for a chance to win a $20 gift certificate to the Paper Issues store. With all of the new goodies coming in from CHA, it shouldn't be too hard to find a reason to shop. Be sure to link back to Paper Issues for a chance to win.
