Spesch Stamps Release Day!

Whoowhoo!! It's that time again... it's Release Day at Spesch Stamps!!

I totally love Spesch Stamps... they have some awesome stuff in store!

Anyways... today it's release day and there are some new images in store. I made my card with the new image called "Bunny with chick flowers". I love this image!
And here it is...


 
This image is just perfect for Easter, so I made an Eastercard with it. Will probably send it some familymembers :)

Mojo Monday #181

Hi there (again *smile*)

Mojo Monday is one of my fave cardsketches sites to explore for inspiration. And today I thought it was time to give it another try for this week's sketch.

Bought some lovely new patterned papers and stickers last week from one of my fave companies: Echo Park... I *heart* this company!
Also used some very old rub-ons from my stash... I just love browsing through my stash of stuff and finding some items I can use in combination with new stuff :)
And this is the card I made with all my new goodies:



Thanks for coming over (again) today and have a lovely evening/day/night...

See you later! :)

SU cardset

Hi there and hello sunshine!

OMG! The sun is shining fulltime overhere and I just looooooooooove it! Can't wait till all Springflowers get out of the ground and give us that colored world :)

Anyways... been playing with some SU-goodies last week and I just looooooooooved it! You get the perfect touch every time when combining colors and stamps with each other.

Made this card:



And as it's an clean&simple card, I made a few extra, just in case :)
I just loooooooove kraft cardstock and from a 12"x12" one, you can get 4 4"x4" cards done. Perfect for those quick cards.



Thanks for coming over and see you later! :)

Time for Tea: High Tea invitation

Hi there on a very sunny Sunday afternoon!

Oh, I totally love this weather and it's pretty hot as well when sitting behind the window in my livingroom. I even had breakfast this morning at my balcony (even though I had to wear a warm sweater) and it was very, very nice!

Anyways... as the title of this blogpost says, it's time for a High Tea :)

I came across 2 blogs. At one of them you had to make a little box and on the other one you had to make an invitation.
So I made this box for an high tea invitation. Used "winter tea" inside which is a tea I totally love, combined with the Echo Park Wintertime papers. I *heart* Echo Park. Have to say I still have a lot of this tea overhere and when winter is over I still like to drink it. It's got an apple, cinnamon flavour and I really love it!

Anyways... here's what I made: an invitation to a high tea party :)

Box closed:

Box opened:


Detail of the inside:


I will defenately make more of these! Really easy to make and they will certainly also be a great gift for people who like tea :)

Thank you very much for coming over!! See you later! :)


This creation is playing in the following challenges:
-
Double Dutch: Time for tea
- A Passion for Paper Trey: Invite for an event (used the Tea for Two and Tea for Two Additions stamp sets and the Tea for Two dies)

Basic Grey Challenges: Wings

Hi there and welcome to another BasicGrey Challenges Challenge :)
This time we have the theme "Wings", so butterflies, fairies, etc. etc.


It was sooooo hard to choose my image as I totally love this theme! So I went through my images and found this sweet image from Spesch Stamps :)
Think this image is sooooooooo sweet and guess what??!! Spesch Stamps is having a new release the 8th March, so Tuesday there's something new for you all and I can tell ya it's going to be awesome :)


Anyways.. back to the BasicGrey Challenge...
I once bought the 6x6 paperpad with the Euphoria papers. Just in case as it isn't my fave BG line, but... it really comes in handy with these kind of images :)


So here you have it.... my project:



And a detail of the glitter on the girl's wings:




Thank you very much for coming over! Please don't forget to visit the blog for more inspiration from the DT. They've done an excellent job and I feel so honoured to be a part of this team!

Teddy Stampers Challenge: Sketch time!

Hi there and welcome to a new Teddy Stampers Challenge.
This time we challenge you to use a sketch you can find at the blog :)

As I totally love working with sketches, I also enjoyed playing around with this one.
Used an older stamp (guess it hasn't seen any ink before *oops*) and patterned papers I bought last year, so guess I have to say I used my stash (uhh... but there's still a lot left :)).

Anyways... here's my card:


I don't have a special reason in mind to send this card, it can be used for all kind of celebrations: birth, birthday, etc. etc.

Anyways... thank you very much for coming over. Please join us with this sketch at the blog and please visit the other DT-members as well... thanks!

See you later! :)

Hi there!

Anyways... here's the card I made:
