Teal

Hi everyone!
Today's project is very quick and easy.......

To do this card,

I used the "INSIDE THE LINES" designer paper from Stampin'Up (Sale-a-bration)

I cut a  6 x 10 cm piece from the 30,5 x 30,5 cm sheet and colored it just partially with felt-tip pens. 

I stuck the image on a slightly larger gray paper and then on the white card! - It was super easy and fast to do!!

HI

...it's me again!!

Today I was really immersed in cards! Three of a sudden - that has not happened for a long time!

Santa Claus lose his slippers! Haha

This card goes for the CCT Challenge. 

The Sunburst technique was not very easy for me because I'm not a real fan of patterned paper!

So I decided to emboss my paper! Some less embossed panels are stamped with tiny stars to give more interest. To spot the different pieces, I traced the lines with a gray felt-tip pen!

... I was also inspired by the layout and the Santa bonnet on Cornelia's funny card at Muse! ....and yes,  the bulbs look a bit like balloons upside down! *laughs* --- Ha, there is even the same sentiment, but this is quite by chance!

Oops, I'm late!

Hello everybody!

Sometimes it happens that we forget a birthday date, in this case a card like that can save you!

I played with the sketch at Less is More for this card.

To create the line, I stamped the sentiment twice - once in the correct position and once upside down!

The circle is illustrated by the stars.

99 Luftballons

.... auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont!


Hallo allerseits!   ....heute mal auf deutsch und französisch! :)

Bei Gundi gibt es derzeit eine Challenge bei der Luftballons gewünscht sind. Schaut doch gleich mal auf Ihren Blog - sie hat tolle Anregungen dazu gemacht, bei deren Anblick man schnell Lust auf's kreieren bekommt!


Bonjour à tous!   ...aujourd'hui en allemand et en français! :)

Chez Gundi il ya actuellement un défi où les ballons sont souhaités. Jetez un œil sur son blog - elle a fait d'exellentes suggestions! Rien qu'a les voir, on a tout de suite envie de créer quelque chose!!

Ich bin mit dieser Karte dabei ....und vielleicht werden es sogar noch mehr! ;)

Je participe avec cette carte ....et peut-être il y auras encore plus! ;)

Die Luftballons sind mit Hilfe einer selbstgemachten Schablone und drei verschiedenen Farben entstanden. Die Katze habe ich zuerst auf Papier gestempelt, koloriert und dann ausgeschnitten. Ihre Augen habe ich mit etwas Glossy bearbeitet und unter ihren Pfoten hab ich ein bisschen grüne Wasserfarbe verteilt. Die Kartenränder habe ich mit Bermuda Bay gewischt. Blieb nur noch der Text: "Möge dein Tag perfekt sein"

Les ballons sont fabriqués à l'aide d'un pochoir fait maison et trois couleurs différentes. J'ai estampillé le chat sur papier puis je l'ai colorié et découpé. J'ai ajouté du Glossy à ses yeux et j'ai étalé un peu d'aquarelle verte sous ses pattes. J'ai frotté les bords de la carte avec Bermuda Bay et j'ai ajouté le texte "Que ton jour soit parfait"

... ich hoffe ich habe euch Lust auf Luftballons gemacht :))

... j'espère que je vous-ai donne envie de faire des ballons :))

Hey chick!

February has passed very fast and it is already time for a new challenge at House of Cards!
As each month, we have an image and / or colors as inspiration for you. - This time it's about creating a scene, and for that I will introduce my chickens, who have recently moved in here! :)

To create my scene, I used colors from the inspiration image (see below) 

and the new set from Stampin'Up, which I got at the last sale-a-bration. - Just love it!

The Easter sentiment is from Mia's Stempelküche.

Our inspiration for March

Just For You

Hello everyone!

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

The Beauty and the Beast  

... I was inspired by the rose.

Wow, very strong colors today!! - a bit unusual for me, but it was sooo cool to do it!

To do the background, I tried to create a kind of twilight that is diffused through stained-glass.

I colored the background with a light blue felt-tip pen and I ended by sponging the edges with "Deep Lagoon" 'Versafine) and "Lightening Black" (Dew Drop Tsukineko)

The rose is also colored with felt-tip pens. 

Products I used: (Sorry, I forgot the stamp for the sentiment - it says "just for you" and is from Stampin'Up) - I don't know the manufacturer from the rose stamp, it was a gift.

A little something....

Hi everyone!
I just wanted to show you what I did for my sweetheart on Valentine's Day!

Very small but ..... it had its effect!! 

..... especially when you open it! 

(Please click on photos to enlarge)

Super easy to do and looks very chic!

It is quite by chance that I found the instructions for this beautiful little box at Stempeleinmaleins - a real gold mine regarding tutorials - with German and English instructions! --- I really should go there more often!!

After making my box, I wrapped it with a stripe of paper that I made as follows:

I dabbed the paper stripe with "Blushing Bride" (Stampin'Up) and added tiny hearts with a stencil and modeling paste - which dryed very quickly!

I added ribbon, linen thread, a label for the "pour toi" (for you), a die-cut leaf and a heart sticker. - I really like how it looks!

Products used: (The stamps inside the box are from Stampin'Up).

Happy Valentine!

Hello everybody!
Actually, I do not write Valentine's cards to anyone, but this time I made an exception! ;-)

I took the cute little Penny Black puppy and colored him in light gray - added also some green and pink for the rose. 

I stamped the pink pannel with my rotary stamp and Versamark. 

For the sentiment I used different stamps from Stampin'Up. - *Valentine's* is stamped with the rotary stamp. 

Then I stuck all that together and added two enamel dots for the fun! Voilà!

Happy Valentine's Day to all of you! - I hope you can enjoy this day with your loved ones!

'Tis The Season

Hello everyone!  I'm back with a nice guy!

After coloring the images, I fussy cut them out and stuck them on the small pannel - the false seam is made with my newest weapon! LOL

As you've surely noticed, I made some changes to Santa Claus. 

I cut the gift packs off and gave him a cup of tea instead - the presents are now next to the Santa.

I planted two firs behind the Santa and scattered some stars in the sky.  

At last I glued the small panel on my card base and stamped the sentiment.

Items i used. 

    

In the middle of the second photo you can see the tool I used to make the false seam. Normally it is used for sewing but as the dies are very expensive, I wanted to test this (4 $) thing first - and it works pretty well! .... and if one day I am richer, I will buy dies!  :-)

Happy Birthday

...to someone very close to my heart! 

Hi everybody! For today's card, I used one of my Katzelkraft birds. 

I colored with felt pens and some water - just like the die-cut balloons. 

After drying I fussy-cut the bird and gave him googly eyes.

I cut a white cardstock panel in a little smaller size than my card base and stamped numbers at the bottom. Then I die-cut each character of the "JOYEUX" 4 times and paste them together (I just love do this). I stamped the "anniversaire" and pasted the "JOYEUX".

I fixed the bird and the balloons with foam pads, attached a thread at each balloon and put them in the bird's beak. 

...and the last thing was to glue the whole panel to the card base.

Items I used to create my card: (the heart dies are from Poppy Stamps)

     

Thanks for stopping by.

Toadily Happy

Hello everybody!

Do you like frogs?

I can handle it, but I like them much more on paper! ;)

I need to recharge my congratulation cards and this one was very quickly done!

Fold a white base card and cut the top sheet transversely.

Cut a piece of colored paper, emboss it and stick under the cut off part of the card.

Stamp and color the image. (I mostly do my coloring with ordinary felt-tip pens and water)!

Die-cut a word 3 or 4 times, glue them together and stick to the card. Finished!

The items I used! - Die is from StampinUp
