Kitty birthday shaker card

Today is the birthday of a kitty loving friend and this is the card I made for her. The square die as well as the Little cat agenda stamp set is from Mama Elephant. The sentiment on the inside comes from Lawn Fawn's Tiny tags birthday sentiments. The die cut letters are from Marianne Design.

Distress Oxide lifting with Perfect Pearls

Trying out the distress oxide ink lifting technique demonstrated by Jennifer McGuire in video not long ago. Instead of just ink lifting with water, I also painted in some water mixed with Perfect pearls.

Flowers are from Altenew stamp set Persian motifs. The butterflies are from a set from Slöjd-Detaljer and from Marianne Design. The dies are from Gummiapan.

The stamps are from Altenew dahlia stamp set. The die is Lawn Fawn and the label sentiment is Mama Elephant.

Butterflies are from Slöjd-Detaljer and Marianne Design. Diecut is Lawn Fawn and the label sentiment is Mama Elephant.

Sunset city scape

I got this die from Marianne Design quite a while ago in a sale and have been wanting to try it out. I wanted to create a sunset background so I started out with ink smooshing a watercolor paper with distress inks. Then I placed the Tim Holtz sunset stencil on and applied some glossy texture paste. It didn't completely turn out as I had envisioned but it was fun to try.

I finished up by assembling the pieces with a black frame cut with Lawn Fawn dies. The sentiment is also from Lawn Fawn.

Scrap it up showroom - 50% off until April 2nd

Saw in my Facebook flow that Scrap it up showroom has a sale, 50% off on everything because they are moving their warehouse. Sale sounded good to me so I flipped through the pages and found some good stuff.

1. 3 mini distress ink cubes that were missing from my collection (Wild honey, Dusty concord, Hickory smoke
2. Butterfly stamp from Marianne Design

3. Basic Stitch passepartout rectangle from Marianne Design (my Lawn Fawn basic stitch rectangle die is doing too much work *smile* so I needed something to switch it up with)

4. Horizon Paris die from Marianne Design

5. Horizon big city die from Marianne Design

6. Musical notation stamp (will go great with musical note die that I got previously)

I've seen some great design done with city scape dies the past couple of months. Also looking at pairing them with a cute super hero stamp set from Mama Elephant. Lots of ideas. Now, all that is left is camp by the mailbox until it arrives. =)

Det blev visst två julkort till...

Det blev visst två julkort till ändå. Så roligt att göra!

Fick inspiration till denna av ett kort jag såg på Pyssloteket *smile* i somras. Idén fastnade och till slut fick jag till det också. Bakgrunden i shakern är gjord med distress ink. Granen är en die från Marianne Design. Stiched hillside borders från Lawn Fawn. Newton är färglagd med distress inks också.

Fick inspiration till detta från Pinterest. Tyckte det var så cool att man hade embossat en del av kortet, skurit av och lagt in en annan färg emellan och sedan satt dit nederdelen. Kortet är kritvitt (bara lite dålig bild).

Till nästa omgång julkort ska jag göra fler som ovan men med mer dekoration som halvpärlor och stickles. Tror det kan bli himla fint!
