50th birthday card set

Hello and happy Wednesday! I recently created a set of 50th birthday cards. This is what I ended up creating:

Both of them are for a woman, but she is not a girly, pink, flower girl. Thus the more “cool” designs. On this card I´ve used Dani Peuss papers on the background and some older chipboard and stickers from my stash. Plus some spray ink in black and a black gel pen.

Like the first one, the second is also a slimline format card:

For this one I used a Rubber Dance stencil (Leaves 2) with Distress Oxide Inks in various blue shades. I also added two types of American Crafts alpha stickers (foam and vinyl). I also used some black and golden pigment droplets as well as a piece of twine and a some chipboard stars and a stamped Stampin´ Up! sentiment. Stamped with a blue VersaFine Clair stamp ink.

Inside one of the cards I created a pocket for a gift card. The other one is without one. These were fun to make! I hope the recipient will also appreciate them ;-).

Happy crafting,
xx, Sanna

Christening card

Hello everyone and happy March! I have a card share up with a slimline sized Christening card today.

I´ve used various papers in yellow and beige tones from my paper stash. The card is for a baby girl, but it´s not supposed to be pink, thus the light yellow and beige tones.

The chipboard pieces are by Wycinanka and the alpha stickers are American Crafts. I´ve added some golden gel pen faux stitching around the edges and some Gansai Tambi golden pigment droplets to the focal point circle and some Stickles for the chipboard star to add a little twinkle. On the inside there is a little pocket for a gift card etc.

Happy crafting,
xx, Sanna
