XOXO birthday card

Hello!

 

This time I share a card I made for my 'crafty challenge calendar'. You can find more info about the challenge from my earlier post here.

I made this card for my hubby who had his birthday this month. Firstly I stamped the mouth with a Visible Image stamp and added glossy accents all over the lips part. When the lips were dry I stenciled the background with Distress Ink and Carabelle Studio stencil and stamped XO's here and there. Then I just taped my creation over a black card base.

Halloween witch

Hello!

Here's another card I made with the stuff from my Craft Calendar bag 1. You can find more info about my crafty challenge from my earlier post here.

I think this beautiful lady goes well with Halloween themed card so I chose to use it with the bat stencil.

 

I coloured the Lady and the bottles with Derwent Inktense pencils. The background I've made earlier (with sprays) and just added the bats with stencil and black gesso. I also added some glitter spray that unfortunately doesn't show in the picture. The bottles and the poem are stamped with PaperArtsy stamps.

Faerie card with red/orange theme

Hello crafters!

 

This time I share a card I made for my 'crafty challenge calendar'. You can find more info about the challenge from my earlier post here.

 

This time I got inspired by the Faerie Magic stamp set and Butterfly Ink stencil. There were also Visible Image ATC swap with a theme "Things with fings" and these products fit that theme perfectly!

I started with stamping the faerie and heat embossing it. Then I used the stencil and Distress Inks to create the orange/red wings. I remembered that I also have the Butterfly Effect samp set so I used it to stamp the butterfly wings over the stenciled area. Lastly I stamped the circles and texts to the background.

I here is the ATC I made using the same stuff.

Video camera view card

Hello!

 

This time I share a card I made for my 'crafty challenge calendar'. You can find more info about the challenge from my earlier post here.

 

The picture of the card is not great, sorry about that. It was a last minute idea to do this card for my hubby's nephew who graduated from vocational college as a media assistant (or something like that) so I didn't have much time to take the picture either.

So this is meant to be the camera view - there are six different recorded videos of different places. And the thought is that you can do anything and be anything 😊 I used a Stampendous stamp set and Distress Inks to create the scenes. 

 

It could be better but with the time I had I'm happy with the result.

Summer slimline card

Hi crafters!

This time I share a card I made for my 'crafty challenge calendar'. You can find more info about the challenge from my earlier post here.

Because it's summer and very hot I got inspired by these CraftEmotions summer treats 😊 I coloured the images with alcohol markers. 

 

I  knew instantly that the Visible Image stencil from my last challenge bag would be perfect for this summery card, so I used some orange and yellow Distress Inks with the stencil to create this sunny background.

Sometimes things just click instantly. I wish it would happen more often 😄

Trust Your Creative Madness

Happy friday!

This time I share a card I made for my 'crafty challenge calendar'. You can find more info about the challenge from my earlier post here.

I got inspired by the Supernova stencil by Visible Image. Firstly I used the stencil with Distress Inks and stamped the sentiment and "bubbles" with Stay Weird stamp set (also by Visible image). After that I added a second layer over the stenciled area with light paste (I love how the colours shines through the paste). I stamped the framed texts with Brighten the World stamp set (by Visible image), cut them and taped them on the card.

You Have to Trust Your Own Creative Madness!

Thinking of you

Hi everyone!

I did a "crafty challenge calendar" for myself this year😊 So it's like an advent calendar - I have about 24 paper bags where I added some dies, stencils, embossing folders and stamps that I haven't used much or at all (new ones and ones I just have forgotten). I tried to mix the stuff so I really don't know what's in which bag. Then I just randomly take one of the bags when I have the time and try to create something with the stuff it includes. And no, I don't need to use all of them 😄

Here is the first card I made (you can find the contents of the bag 1 later on this post). I really got inspired by this beautiful Katherine stamp by Prima Marketing and even dug out my Derwent Inktense pencils that I haven't used for a long time either. The base of the card is stamped with a Carabelle Studio background stamp.
