Tein tämän kortin Simply Cards and Papercraft -lehden mukana tulleilla Clearly Besottedin leimoilla. Väritin ruusun ProMarkereilla ja leikkasin irti. Tekstileima on Papertrey Inkiä ja paperit Lili of the Valley'ä. Lisänä muutama paljetti ja vähän nyöriä. Jotain tämä kortti mielestäni jäi kaipaamaan, tuo ruusu taitaa olla aavistuksen liian pieni yksinään tuohon korttiin, joten jotain lisää siinä olisi voinut olla. Mutta eipä auta enää, tällainen tuli tästä ja seuraavaan korttiin sitten lisää härpäkettä ;D
I made this card using the free Clearly Besotted stamps that came with a previous issue of Simply Cards and Papercraft. I coloured the rose with ProMarkers and fussy cut it out. The sentiment stamp is by Papertrey Ink and the patterned papers are by Lili of the Valley. As embellies, there are some sequins and twine. I'm not totally pleased with this card, I think it's lacking something... I guess that rose stamp is just a tad too small for the card, it would have been better if there was something more on the card with it. Now it just looks lonely :D Well, that can't be helped now, I'll just have to leave it as is and call it a card, I guess.
Kiitos, kun käväisit ja kiitos, jos kommentoit. Toiveikasta torstaita! :)
Thanks for your visit today and for any comment you may wish to leave me. Have a lovely day! :)

Vauvakortteja - New baby cards
Tein vauvakortteja. Neljä kappaletta :D Tuli tehtyä, kun ostin tämän LOTV:n vauvaleimasimen kirpparilta ja se on niin suloinen, että tekisi mieli vain huokailla koko ajan, kun sitä katsoo :) Kaikki kortit tulivat aika lailla samalla kaavalla, Lili of the Valley'n Baby Blanket on siis tuo leimasin, väritykset Distress Inkien täyttöpulloilla, stanssaukset Simonin ommelstansseilla ja paperit taisivat olla Echo Parkia. Koristeina stanssattuja sydämiä, perhosia ja tähtiä, enamel dotseja ja nappeja.
I made a few 'new baby' cards. Well, I made four cards in total :D I just had to, I bought this cute Lili of the Valley stamp second hand and it's so darn cute, I just go 'awww' each time I see it :) The cards themselves are pretty straightforward, the stamp's called 'Baby Blanket' and I coloured the images with Distress Ink refills, and die cut them with a Simon Says Stamp stitched square die. The patterned papers are by Echo Park, and as embellies there are die cut butterflies, hearts and stars, some enamel dots and buttons.
Haasteet/Challenges:
* Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: B is for... babies!
* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Special Lady/Girly (the baby girl cards)
Kiitos, kun käväisit ja kiitos, jos kommentoit. Mukavaa maanantaita! :)
Thanks for your time today, I'd love it if you left me a little comment, thanks :) Have a fab day! :)

70
Anopillani on tässä kuussa synttärit ja tämä kortti juhlistaa hänen pyöreitä vuosiaan. Käytin korttiin Altenew'n ihanaa magnoliaa, jonka embossasin kullalla, vesiväritin Distress Inkeillä ja kiinnitin tarrapaloilla. Paperit ovat Lili of the Valley'ä, ympyrä on stanssattu Simonin stanssilla ja tuo kaareva reuna WPlus9:n Landscape Borders -setin stanssilla. Numerot ja teksti ovat ääriviivatarroja ja koristeina on muutama pieni paljetti.
My mother-in-law turns 70 this month and this card celebrates that. The gorgeous flower is stamped with a stamp from Altenew's Magnolias for Her set and heat embossed in gold. I fussy cut it, watercoloured with Distress Inks and attached with foam adhesives for a little dimension. The patterned papers are by Lili of the Valley, and there's some glittery gold cardstock for added sparkle. The circle is die cut with a Simon Says Stamp die and the rounded edge of the panel is die cut with a die from WPlus9 set 'Landscape Borders'. The numbers and the sentiment (it says 'congrats' in Finnish) are stickers and as embellies, there are some tiny sequins.
Haasteet/Challenges:
* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Special Lady/Girly
* Mojo Monday: Contest 387 - Sketch
* Altenew March Challenge: From Places Abroad (I was inspired by all three photos: Gold contours (embossing) from the first one, the gold on the pillars on the second photo, the coloured flowers against white background on the last photo)
Kiitos, kun käväisit ja kiitos, jos kommentoit. Suloista sunnuntaita! :)

Uudelleen vierailulla STAMPlorationsilla! - I'm a Guest Designer at STAMPlorations, again!
Edellisessä postauksessa mainitsemani kortti valittiin "Top Pickiksi" myös STAMPlorationsin tammikuun haasteessa (wohoo! :) ), joten sain kunnian olla guest designer myös tämänkertaisessa kuukausihaasteessa. Aiheena maaliskuulla on "Stamps and Stencil", eli sekä leimoja että sabluunoita pitäisi käyttää. Itse käytin tähän korttiin STAMPlorationsin ihanaa Bold Florals -sabluunaa ja kohokuvioin sillä tuon korttipohjan. Näin se näkyy ja antaa tekstuuria mutta ei vie liikaa huomiota tuolta kukkaselta, joka on STAMPlorationsin Bloom Sketches -setistä ja väritetty Polychromoksilla. Tekstileima on samaisesta setistä. Kiinnitin nuo paneelit kohotarroilla korttipohjaan, jotta sain vähän ekstraintressiä korttiin. Lisäksi kukkasen takana on hieman kultalankaa.
Remember the card I mentioned in my last post? Well, to my utter surprise, it was chosen as one of the 'Top Picks' for STAMPlorations January challenge as well (wohoo! :) ) and, therefore, I now have the huge honour of being a Guest Designer for STAMPlorations March challenge as well (talk about me being lucky!). The theme for March is 'Stamps and Stencil' and this is my card. I used the gorgeous 'Bold Florals' stencil as an embossing folder and ran it with my cardstock through my Cuttlebug to get beautiful texture on the card panel. This way the background also remained subtle enough so that it doesn't steal the limelight from the stamped (and fussy cut..) flower. The flower stamp is from 'Bloom Sketches' set, as is the sentiment, and I coloured the flower with my Polychromos pencils and added some gold thread behind it. I adhered the embossed panels onto my cardbase with foam adhesives for little added interest.
Jälleen kerran iso kiitos Sherylle STAMPlorationsilla ja koko design teamille siitä, että sain olla vierailulla. Erityiskiitos myös Nonnille, jonka STAMPlorations-leimoja ja -sabluunoita sain lainata!
Once again, a huge big thank you to Shery at STAMPlorations and to the whole design team for letting me be a guest designer for the March challenge - it's an honour! And a special thank you to Nonni who very kindly lent me some of her STAMPlorations goodies to play with :)

Vieraana STAMPlorationsilla! - I'm a guest designer at STAMPlorations!
Korttini valittiin yhdeksi "Top Pickiksi" STAMPlorationsin luonnoshaasteessa #26 ja sain siten kunnian olla guest designer tämänkertaisessa luonnoshaasteessa. Seurasin luonnosta melko tarkasti ja leimasin sen mukaisesti noita lehtiä STAMPlorationsin Trendy Leaves -setistä, musteina käytin Heron musteita Neon Green, Neon Blue ja Lemon Yellow. Tekstileima on STAMPlorationsin Bloom Sketches -setistä. Stanssasin paneelin Simon Says Stampin Stitched Rectangles -setin stanssilla, kiinnitin korttipohjaan ja lisäsin vain hieman mustaa scrapper's flossia koristeeksi. Simppeliä linjaa siis taas! :)
My card was chosen as one of the 'Top Picks' in STAMPlorations sketch challenge #26 and so I now have the honour of being one of the guest designers for the current sketch challenge (wohoo! :) ). For my card, I followed the sketch pretty closely and stamped the leaves from the 'Trendy Leaves' set by STAMPlorations accordingly. As inks, I used Hero Arts inks 'Neon Green', 'Neon Blue' and 'Lemon Yellow'. The sentiment comes from 'Bloom Sketches' set by STAMPlorations. I die cut the panel using 'Stitched Rectangles' die by Simon Says Stamp, adhered it to the card base and added some black scrapper's floss to finish the card.
Iso kiitos STAMPlorationsin suuntaan, että sain olla guest designer tässä haasteessa! Ja nyt kipin kapin osallistumaan haasteeseen!
A huge big thank you to Shery at STAMPlorations and all the ladies in the design team for having me as a guest designer, I had so much fun! :) And now, hop over to the STAMPlorations blog and join in the challenge!

40
Ystäväni täyttää tänään 40 ja tein hänelle tällaisen onnittelukortin. Yleensä en käytä tällaisia lapsihahmoisia leimoja aikuisten kortteihin, mutta tällä kertaa tein poikkeuksen, koska tämä pieni keijusiipinen typykkä jotenkin muistuttaa minua ystävästäni :) Typykän väritin Distress Markereilla ja -täyttöpulloilla, siipiin ja mekkoon lisäilin vähän kimalletta. Leimakuvan stanssasin Simonin stitched rectangles -setin stanssilla, kuviopaperin kulman taas WPlus9:n Landscape Borders -setin stanssilla ja numerot Timpan stanssilla. Kuviopaperit ovat Lili of the Valleytä, kuten leimakuvakin. Koristeena vain paperikukka ja helmi.
My friend turns 40 today and to congratulate her, I made her this card. Now I don't usually use stamps with child/child-like images for grown ups but this time I made an exception - this little fairy with her little wings just reminds me so much of my friend! :) I coloured the image ('Pom Pom Fairy' by Lili of the Valley) with Distress Markers and refills and added some Wink of Stella glitter pen to her wings and some Stickles to her dress for extra sparkle. I die cut the image using a stitched rectangle die by Simon Says Stamp. I also used 'Landscape Borders' die by WPlus9 to die cut the corner of the patterned paper and a Tim Holtz die to die cut the numbers. The patterned papers are by Lili of the Valley as well. As embellies, there's just a paper flower with a sticky back pearl.
Haasteet/Challenges:
* Uniko Studios: Challenge #18 - Birthdays
* Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: No rules (anything goes)
* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything goes
Toivottavasti tästä näkee hieman tuota kimallusta.
Hope you can see a bit of the sparkle in this close up.
Kiitos, kun käväisit ja kiitos, jos kommentoit. Leppoisaa sunnuntaita! :)
Thanks for your time today, I'd love it if you left me a little comment, thanks :) Enjoy your day! :)
