Hallo Baby

Today i made a cute pink baby card.
I used a card with a cut out window where i glued some transparent paper behind.
The baby is a 3-D motive.
I decorated with a flower, 2 leafes and 2 big pink flatback pearls i bought yesterday.
I stamped " Hallo Baby" on a piece of pink paper and cut it out with my new
Cricut Paper trimmer. I distressed it with the new Summer color ink pad picked raspberry from Tim.
But i think i have to change the color for: Hallo Baby. Its too dark.
This card i made for the Simon says stamp challenge: Hey girl!

My first Tri-shutter-card

Hey there,

today i made my first Tri-shutter-card. I think its very hard to do when you only have a ruler and an exacto knife....
But i think i looks ok for the first time. What do you think!?
I used Tim Holtz distress paper for the card and Prima paper
for the small paper cut outs. Everything is distressed with Wild Honey Distress ink pads
by Tim Holtz. And i stamped some images and phrases inside with Archival ink in sepia.

This is a card for the Simon says stamp challenge: No rules....

Layered card

Hello friends!

Graphic 45 is having a challenge.

Make a 10 minute card

I liked the scetch they used for it and so i made one.
This card fits also the SSS challenge: Layered.

For the card i used a creme colored card and some Prima Botanical papers.
I distressed the papers with the Prima distressing tool and Ranger wild honey distress ink pad.
The image is a premade 3-D image from the La Blanche web shop. I bought it years ago.
I used some stickers for the corners.
The sentiment says: Congratulations.

July Tag for 12 Tags of 2012

Hello out there!

Its sunday again and i managed to craft a bit today.
I made my july - tag for Tims 12 Tags of 2012.

Its a craft paper tag. I used a Tattered Angels stencil with distress ink for the background.
Then I took my distress ink refills to give it that splatter look.
I put some Tim Holtz masks on the upper part and sprayed the whole tag with some TA Glimmer Mist.
The next step was to stamp the border in the middle with embossing ink. I embossed with Vintage photo distress embossing powder. I riped out a piece of paper and used some Walnut Stain distress ink to darken the edges. I stamped a phrase on it and attached a bit of twine. I used some foam pads to attach it to the tag.
The small stars are from TA too. I also inked them with red and brown Distress ink and used different foam pads to attach them for some depth.
The last things i did were to stamp the eye inside a splatter with blach Archival ink and i attached some seem binding.

With this tag i´d like to join the Challenge over at Simon says stamp and show.

Depth of Distress at SSS

I made a tag for the Simon says stamp challenge: Depth of Distress.
Making the journal on at the weekend was so much fun, im in such a crafting mood.
If I just had more time.
There is so much to do in the garden, meeting friends... so there is not much time left for crafting :-(
But this journal....
I´m addicted...I have to make another one!

But for now i have only my tag. I used some Ranger distress Stamp pads for the background. Stamped some clocks with Archival black.
Cut out some pics from the G45 Steampunk Debutant Paperline. I distressed them with the Prima Distress tool and used some walnut distress stain on the edges. Glued clock parts on the small one.
Colored a TH Word metal piece with alcohol ink and Snow Cap paint dabber.
Decorated with a piece of blue seembinding and a small bird from Primas Vintage trinkets by Marion Smith.

Hope to see you soon.

After nearly 2 weeks without crafting i made a birthdaycard on friday.

I hope you like it.
I used some of the new Prima Flowers and a new SIIC swirl.
