Cake

This birthday card features a stamp from the Penny Black stamp set It's Your Day. I coloured the image with my Copics before die cutting it with its matching die and adding loads of Glossy Accents on the icing of the cake and some Stickles glitter glue to the candle flames (sadly, these don't show in the photo). I adhered the image with foam adhesives onto panels die cut with Pinkfresh Studio die Diagonal Stitched Rectangles and added a piece of patterned paper onto my card base before adhering the panels with the stamped image on it. The sentiment I used says 'Congrats' and the card is embellished with some enamel dots.

Peaceful Christmastime

It's almost Easter - and I have my first Christmas card for this year to share! This features the gorgeous Poinsettia stamp by Marianne Design coloured with Copics. I die cut the stamped panel and the pink panel behind it with Pinkfresh Studio die Diagonal Stitched Rectangles, and adhered the stamped panel with foam adhesives. For the background, I used a piece of patterned paper. The sentiment, which wishes Peaceful Christmastime in Finnish, is heat embossed. I used sequins to embellish the card.

Bouquet

I made a birthday card with a stamp from the Spring Bouquets stamp set by Gina K Designs. I coloured the image with my Copics and added some white gel pen accents to it before die cutting it with its matching die. I then die cut the frame using Pinkfresh Studios' die Ornate Oval Frame, adhered it onto a piece of patterned paper, stamped my sentiment inside the frame (the sentiment translates as 'Heartfelt Congratulations') and adhered the bouquet on the frame. Lastly, I embellished the card with some pretty gems.

Arches

I made this floral birthday card with a stamp called Friendship Blooms by Hero Arts in collaboration with Gina K Designs. I coloured the image with my Copics and then used dies from Essential Arches die set by Spellbinders (my current favourite!) to die cut a window to both black and white cardstock which I then layered on top of each other before adhering them to my stamped panel.  The sentiment I used says 'Congrats' in Finnish. Lastly, I embellished the card with some white half pearls.

Poppies for Birthday

Poppies are one of my favourite flowers and this stamp by Gina K Designs, Poppy Garden, is my most recent poppy stamp purchase. I love how elegant it is! I coloured the image with my Copics and die cut the panel with Spellbinders die Essential Arches. The dark green panel in the background is embossed with a Penny Black embossing folder Texture, I adhered the floral panel with foam adhesives on it. I then die cut the sentiment (it says 'Congratulations' in Finnish) and coloured it with my Copics before adding Nuvo Aqua Shimmer pen on it and adhering it to the panel. Lastly, I embellished the card with some black gems.

Floral Birthday Card

Here's a birthday card I made with a lovely floral stamp from Pinkfresh Studio called Beyond Measure. I coloured the image with my Copics before die cutting it with the matching die. I then die cut an opening to the white panel with a die from the Spellbinders die set Essential Arches and before adhering the panel with some foam adhesives onto a piece of patterned paper adhered to the card base, I stamped my sentiment on it (it says 'Congrats'). I adhered the florals in place with foam adhesives as well before embellishing the card with some gold half pearls.

Spring Bouquet

I had so much fun colouring these gorgeous florals from the Spring Bouquets stamp set by Gina K Designs. Such a beautiful stamp! I coloured the image with my Copics before die cutting it with the matching die and adding some white gel pen to the centres of the blue flowers. I then die cut the panels in the background with Pinkfresh Studio die Diagonal Stitched Rectangles and adhered the top panel with foam adhesives. I heat embossed the sentiment (it says 'On Your Special Day') on a strip of black cardstock, adhered the stamped image and the sentiment strip in place and embellished the card with some sequins and half pearls.
