Animals....

Hello everyone!
Just a quick reminder for our current challenge at the Dream Factory. - This month's movie is

Zootopia 

Zoomania / Zootopie

Whether exotic, indigenous or pets, all animals are welcome!

...and you still have two weeks for creating ;-)

This time I used several birds from Katzelkraft and I played with my new stamps from Scrap Plaisir. 

I stamped leaves and an ostrich on white cardstock and sponged a little blue on the remaining white surface. 

I stamped some more leaves in lighter green on an another cardstock, cut them out and glued it above the first leaves. 

I stamped and colored two other birds, fussy cut them and stuck it to the panel. 

For more fun, I added a hat, glasses and a bow tie to the ostrich. 

The sentiments are little words that I mixed together and it says: Happy Birthday ... when do we arrive for the aperitif?

.... at the end it all looks a bit like a collage but I love the way it comes out!

Thanks for your visit ♥

Stamps and dies:

I also used "Lemon Lime Twist", "Pear Pizzazz", "Early Espresso" (Stampin'Up), "Onyx Black" (Versafine) and watercolors to do the stamping and the coloring. 

A Little Girl's Birtday

Hi everybody!

Confetti, confetti - my nephew's little daughter is going to have two candles on her Birthday cake today!

... and voilà the little card that I made for her

I replaced the balloon that the little dragon originally held against three balloons that I created using ink and a homemade stencil. 

I added a piece of paper and a border that I also designed myself. 

To make the confetti, I tied three felt-tip pens together with washi tape and made small dots all around the image.

The dragon is colored with felt-tip pens. The sentiment says: Let's go... 

Thanks for visiting.

Products I used: (I forgot Whisper White for the dots on the pink panel)

  

If life gives you LEMONS

Make LEMONADE



Hi everyone!
Have you already seen the summer challenge at Gundi (Papierelle)? ....It's about fruits!

...so today's card is particularly fruity! ;-)

A few lemons slices and a glass of lemonade (both from Stampo) - that was the basic idea! 

I chose a funnel-like shape for the top part of the card and stuck all lemon slices on/in it. 

... and to get the juice, I added the drop (from Katzelkraft)  😋

I used a piece of potato bag as a stencil and sponged a small white border on the green part. "Whisper White" (Stampin'Up)

...I also added lines of arrows between the white and green area. (Stampin'Up)

I had no matching stamp for the sentiment and my printer was going crazy, 

so I punched the word LEMON, and wrote the rest of the text by hand.

I colored with felt-tip pens.

Hope you like my lemonade!

...and thanks for the visit!

Papierelle Sommer Challenge - Fruits

♥ Just married ♥

Hello everyone!

A big party was held last weekend! - My nephew's wedding!

... here is the card I made for the lovers.

First I did a pink watercolor stain on a white cardstock panel. 

Then I added some darker pink splashes. 

After drying I glued the panel on the base card, 

then I added the feather, the twine and the sentiment which says: ... it looks like happiness

I punched the birds and the hearts and stuck them onto the feather, just above the twine.

... Long live the newlyweds!

...and thanks for your visit!

Smile

Hello everyone! 
Today I come with a funny little thing!

A pop-up cube card

This cube can be flattened so that it fits into an envelope or, as here, in a small box. 

As soon as you pull him out of the box, he jumps into its original shape! .... well, he should !

This is how the two flattened sides of the cube look!

I made all the smiles myself. 

Eyes, mouths, eyelids and eyelashes are drawn, colored, cut out 

...and then glued to the punched yellow circles. 

...and now the cube is in its box! 😉

I found the tutorial on Youtube and I had huge fun to do this!!

Have a happy day! ;-)

Animals, Animals, Animals ....

Hello everyone!
We have a new challenge at the Dream Factory! - This month's movie is

Zootopia 

Zoomania / Zootopie

Whether exotic, indigenous or pets, all animals are welcome!

I used three Katzelkraft stamps for this little scene. (Cat, Rat and Wall) 

I colored them with felt-tip pens and fussy cut it. 

I embossed cat and rat and glued them, and the wall, on my card. 

The background (wood effect) and the sentiment (three different sets) are from Stampin'Up. 

The speech bubble is hand drawn.

Come and play with us, 

we look forward to seeing what you are going to create !!

😉

Oops ...

I made these pots already in April and almost forgot to show them !! 

Hello everyone!

A made pot and a card for my sister in law,

...another pot with a card for my friend Cornelia,

...and a pot for my friend Gundi!

They look very realistic, but everything is just cardstock, even the pots!

...these succulents are quite easy to keep, just remove dust from time to time, that's all!

;-)

Stripes and/or Colors

Hello everyone!
Time for a new challenge at House of Cards!
Summer is here and as you can see, our inspiration photo (see below) shows a big parasol!

What interests us for this challenge are its stripes - but of course you can also use umbrellas and the colors of the photo for your creations! ;)

Here's my idea

I stuck masking tapes in regular distance on a white cardstock panel, 

then I sponged the colors (Stampin'Up) starting from the darker to the lighter. 

The cactus  image comes from the set "Au vert" by Scrap Plaisir. - It is colored with felt-tip pens. 

The sentiment is combined from Die cut letters and a tiny Stampin'Up stamp.

I added 3 sequins and few pearl pen dots for a bit more interest! ;)
