Poppies

Hello crafters!

This time I made a card using an image from Blooms 6 Poppy Flower bundle.

I designed the layout with a text editor. The background is from Just Lovely Honeypie paper pack, I added the flowers over it and also a text from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Sentiments pack.

After printing, I die cut the image and coloured the flowers with alcohol markers and white gel pen. I wanted to add some more contrast so I added a black cardboard. Then I did the dashed lines to cardboard and the text with a gel pen. I also added a couple half pearls to cover the stains I noticed 😃

Pastel Easter

Hi!

Easter is getting closer, have you already done your Easter cards? I must admit that I don't do them too much... But here is one pastelly one :)

First of all I designed the layout with a text editor. I used the background paper from Pretty Spring Papers pack, text from Easter Greetings, Quotes And Sentiments pack, images Bunny Rabbit With Easter Egg and Cute Easter Egg Basket and the percoloured butterfly from Garden, Flower, Leaves, Butterfly set.

When I was happy with the layout, I printed it and then coloured the images (bunny and baskets with stuff). Then I added some purple Distress Ink to the edges and taped it to the card base.

Unlikely friends

 Hi!
 
It's Wednesday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter challenge blog. The theme is 'Animals'. 

I used this adorable Unlikely Friends image and using the text editor added it over the middle part of Ellie paper and printed it. I also printed another Ellie paper.


 

I coloured the image with alcohol markers and added some clouds with Distress Inks and stencil. Then I cut that centrum part and taped it with the foam tape onto the other print. 
 

 
 
I coloured a piece of paper with the same Distress Inks I used on the sky and then die cut the text 'For you' from it. I also added some Glossy Accents to the text and another purple die cut under it (to make it stand out a little better).

The future looks bright

Happy Monday!

Sun is shining and it's really beautiful outside - so this card is perfect for today 😊

I designed this layout with a text editor. I used an image from Blooms 3 Flower bundle and added it over the paper from Ula's Life collection. I also added a sentiment from Quotes Winnie Special Moments bundle. When I was happy with the design I printed it.
 
Then I coloured the image with alcohol markers and just taped the print on the cardboard.

Livin la vida mocha

Hello!

Want some coffee? With glitter? Well, here you are😊

On this card I used Mocha Coffee Cup image. I used a text editor to add the paper/texture from Tropical Sorbet bundle on the cup and printed it. Then I added some glitter paste over the pink parts of the cup and let it dry.

Then I added some pink glitter paste on the white card board with Starry Nights stencil. When it was dry I added the coffee cup with foam tape. I also added some black and pink cardboard behind it before taping it to the card base.

The sentiment is from Coffee, Tea and Cake Greetings set.

Sepia Gnomie

Hi!

It's gnomie day again 😊

I wanted to do something with sepia colours. I used Daisy Heart Gnome and coloured her with alcohol markers. I wanted the gnome to be more like those background paper colours but unfortunately I didn't have quite right markers (or they were waiting for refill), so the gnome is more bronze coloured.. Maybe I should've added some grey in there... Well, anyways..

The papers are from Winnie Wonderland Ephemera bundle. I added some Distress Ink to the edges of the card base, some jute cord and bow and a few golden heart stickers I found in my stash. 

I usually don't do anything sepia or vintage style and I really noticed that when I was doing this card.. It felt that I couldn't find anything I could use in this 😃

To mom

Hi!

 It's time for a new challenge, come and join us here Polkadoodles Craft Challenge
 
This time I didn't colour anything 😮

I designed the "background" on the text editor. I used the digi paper from Winnie Wonderland Paper Heaven 6 set as a base and added two leaf wreaths from Winnie Fruit Punch Embellies bundle. Then I added some butterflies from Helga Hippo Embellies bundle and flowers from Helga Hippo Floral/Foliage bundle. Lastly I added the sentiment from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Sentiment set before printing the page.
 
Then I just taped it on the pink cardboard and then on the ivory card base. I added the pink bow I made using satin and organza ribbons and lastly a few diamonds on the one corner.

Simple flower card

Hi!

This time I made a super simple card 😊

I used a beautiful image from Polkadoodles Blooms 1 Flower bundle and a sentiment from Winnie Celebrations 2 sentiments bundle. 
 
I used a text editor to create the design I wanted and then print it out. After I let the ink dry a little I just added a few stripes of colour with Distress Inks. And then I taped the printed paper to a black card stock.

I really like the simplicity of this card. What do you think?

Ihanaa juhlapäivää!

Hi!

It's time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter challenge blog. The theme is 'Fancy Folds'. 
 
I used a beautiful Moon Spell image, coloured it with alcohol markers. If you wonder where the moon is, I cut it out because it didn't fit on this card 😊

I decided to do a step card (because folds are the theme), and coated the card base with rose patterned paper i found my stash. Then I added the image and sentiment (have a wonderful day in english).
 
I also decided to add a foamiran rose, because I felt the card looked so plain and flat.

I'm quite happy with the result, even though I think the image isn't quite right for this card.

Sending happiness

Happy Tuesday everyone!

There is a new flower release on Polkadoodles shop - Blooms and Butterflies. I just love these 💗 It's been awhile since I last time have coloured flowers, so it was really a nice change of pace.

On this card I used this beautiful image from Blooms 4 Flower bundle. I firstly designed the layout with a text editor. I added the green paper from Winnie Starfish/Sandcastles Papers 3 set behind the image and made it a little smaller (than the image). I also added a text from Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Sentiment/Quotes bundle and then printed it.

Then I cut the print, coloured the image with alcohol markers and added some backing cardboards.

Pink and purple gnomie

Hi everyone!

On this card I used Spring Bunch Gnome and coloured it with alcohol markers. 

The background I made with Heavenly Circles stencil and pink and lilac Distress Inks. The "frames" are stamped with Love Hearts stamp set. 
 
I printed sentiment from Gnome-tastic Sentiments set and cut it with Posydoodles Circles die. I also cutted another circle and taped the gnome to it. Then I taped both circles to the background with foam tape.

I think the background is a little too busy, so maybe I will try to fix it someday. If you have any ideas or opinions, please let me know 😊
