1st birthday card

Leave a comment

Hello everyone! Today I´m stopping by to share a card I created for a 1st birthday.

I started off with a palm tree paper on the background. Next I stamped and die cut the lions and the monkeys from yellow and light brown cardstocks. The die cut dies and the matching stamps are by Elizabeth Craft Designs (from their older collection). Next I colored the stamped and die cut images with acrylic markers.

After that I die cut some tropical leaves from a striped green toned paper. I then added some Distress Oxide Ink in green around the edges of the leaves for more depth. Next I arranged all the pieces onto the palm tree patterned paper and glued them on place. For finishing touches I added some glitter alpha stickers for a sentiment.

I really liked coloring the jungle animals for this card. I hope the birthday boy´s parents also like the card.

Happy crafting,
xx, Sanna

80th birthday card

Leave a comment

Hello! Today I am sharing a custom card I was asked to create for a special 80th birthday. The person happens to love yellow, thus the color choice. And as I am a big fan of yellow too, this was a fun one to make.

I used a polka dotted paper on the background. Adhered to a light yellow cardstock (size A5). On top of that paper I added a die cut border (Tonic Studios die) and on top of that another die cut paper (again Tonic Studios dies) with some daffodils on it.

Then a cluster of yellow toned paper flowers and some rhinestone bits here and there (all from my older stash). Some Pink Paislee Artisan Elements peeking thru under the focal piece. And in the middle, a golden alpha “80” plus a Create A Smile stamp sentiment in German.

I loved creating this card and digging older product together from my stash. And it all worked out together so well!

Thanks for stopping by! Happy crafting,

Baby girl card in pink tones

Leave a comment

Hello everyone! I was asked to create a bigger sized (A5) baby card. Since it is for a baby girl, it was supposed to be all pink and cute. This is what I came up with:

I used pink toned cardstock as a base. Added a handwriting patterned pinkish paper on top, cut some polka dot paper with a border punch. and added a Tonic Studios centerpiece in ecru as a background for the cute hippo.

The hippo die cut die is also by Tonic Studios. I used only one pink cardstock, but inked some parts with a darker pink toned Distress Oxide Ink to add contrast. The Gitter pen toes and fingers are done using a Edding silver glitter brush pen.

I also added some pink toned ribbon and glitter aplhas in purple. Very girly and very, very pink, like requested :).

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!
