Rather be Skiing Snowman

Hey!

Here's a card I made using sketch #128 with a twist from i {heart} sketches.

The image I used is from From the Heart Stamps and it's called "Rather be Skiing Snowman". I colored it with Promarkers and added snow and glitter to it. It's also matted on orange cardstock.
The 3 orange strips are embossed with a snowflake embossing folder and I used white ink to accent the raised snowflakes. To the snowflake punch outs I added a little orange gem.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Tea and Cake

Hey!

Here's a card I made with a new Whimsy Note from My Whimsical Little World.

This note is called "Tea and Cake" and I colored it with Promarkers. I kept the card simple bij folding the front of the card back and I adhered the matted image to the middle of the folded front. The tea spoon is a die cut from Marianne Designs and the background paper is from a Dutch brand. Love the little cup charm and the silver corner.

Triangle gift card holder

Hey,

Here's a gift card holder I made.

The image is from the Magnolia BoHo Collection 2015 and is called Chic Fringe Tilda. I colored her with Promarkers. Everything came from my stash. Don't want to buy more new things otherwise I have to move. I think many of you have the same problem. Lol...
I used a doily die cut, made a little metal flower stem with little beads, adhered some roses, added a edge sentiment and to close the card I used some yellow baker's twine. Inside I kept it plain so I can write something in it. I have tucked the gift card behind a piece of vellum that I punched with an edge punch. To finish the inside of the card I adhered some strips of dp along the bottom and die cut butterflies to mask of the little twine knots.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Hugs,
Kitty

Groot Cards2Create nieuws....

Hoi allemaal..

Vandaag zijn wij bij jullie met extra nieuws.

Helaas hebben wij ook te maken met de slechte economie en de dalende verkoop.

Ook zijn de prijzen van de postzegels de laatste jaren enorm gestegen.

Daardoor is de verkoop zo terug genomen dat wij helaas de webshop zullen moeten stoppen.

Een hele moeilijke keus want het is oh zo leuk om te doen...

Wij hebben genoten van een paar hele leuke jaren met een fantastisch Designteam!

Heel wat dames hebben ons dagelijks verrast met de meest mooie creaties.

Ook hebben wij heel veel mooie creaties gezien van jullie volgers op het blog.

Wat hebben wij veel van jullie geleerd en genoten.

Wij van team Cards2create/Hobbyhome-hobbyartikelen willen jullie daar enorm voor bedanken !

Wat gaat dit voor nu betekenen:

Vanaf vandaag gaat de hele webshop in de opheffingsuitverkoop.

De prijzen staan al bij de artikelen dus geen kortingscode.

Het blog draait nog even door want we hebben natuurlijk nog een Challenge lopen.

Houd de site in de gaten want we gaan natuurlijk stunten met de artikelen.

Lieve groetjes

I loved it with all the Christmas greetings in all kinds of languages. On the edge of the glass I used glitter glue and the Merry Christmas sentiment is washi tape. Also used a piece of Christmas ribbon and a Holly leaf die and 3 big gems.

Snowman Pinup Sassy

Hey!

Today Sassy Studio Designs is sponsoring two challenges, The Outlaws Challenges and Suzy Bee's Bloomin' Challenge.

I used Snowman Pinup Sassy and I cropped and colored her with Promarkers. I used a lovely digi background paper by Michele R Designs from a paper pack called Vintage Teal Frost. I embossed a piece of dark blue linen cardstock and inked the raised snowflakes with frost white color box pigment ink. The sentiment is from my stash and in the middle I adhered a little punched out star. The snowflakes are also punch outs.

Feel free to join both challenges to get the chance to win some SSD images of your choice.
