Flowers - Kukkaset

I made this birthday card with a Penny Black stamp called Golden Dance. I coloured the image with watercolours and die cut it with the matching die. For the background, I used some patterned papers and a half of a circle frame die cut with Stitched Circles dies by Penny Black. The sentiment says 'Congrats', I heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I used some enamel dots to embellish the card.

I'm entering my card to the following challenges:
* Penny Black and More: August - Say It with Flowers (my 3rd entry)

* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes

 

 

Tämän onnittelukortin tein Penny Blackin leimalla Golden Dance. Väritin leimakuvan vesiväreillä ja stanssasin irti. Taustalle laitoin kuviopapereita ja puolikkaan ympyräkehyksestä, jonka stanssasin Penny Blackin Stitched Circles -stansseilla. Tekstileiman embossasin ja kortin koristelin enamel dotseilla.

Watercoloured florals - Vesivärikukkia

I made a birthday card with this gorgeous floral stamp by My Favorite Things, it's called Fresh-Cut Flowers. I coloured it with my watercolours and fussy cut it out. For the background I used some patterned paper and a frame die cut with Penny Black's Dainty Dashes dies. The sentiment says 'Congrats - Today is your day'. I also added some enamel dots to embellish the card.

Bookmarks - Kirjanmerkit

School has started and so I made a bookmark for both of my sons. I used previously coloured stamped images that combine two things loved by my sons: books and cats :) The stamps are by Newton's Nook and the colouring is done by Copics. The dies I used are by Mama Elephant and Simply Graphic (the alphabet dies). The manufacturer of the swirly die behind the cat in the green bookmark is unknown. 

 

 I'd like to enter my bookmarks to the following challenge:

* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes

 

 

Koulujen alun kunniaksi tein kirjanmerkit pojilleni. Leimakuvina käytin Newton's Nookin kissoja kirjoineen, väritys Copiceilla. Käyttämäni stanssit ovat Mama Elephantin ja Simply Graphicin (aakkoset), en tiedä valmistajaa ympyräsutulle vihreässä kirjanmerkissä kissan taustalla.

Candy cane - Karkkitanko

I made a Christmas card with this sweet little gnome by Stamping Bella. He's called Gnome with a Candy Cane and I've coloured him with my Copics. I was happy that I was able to fit a Finnish Christmas sentiment stamp in his little tag too. The upper edge is die cut with a Penny Black die and I added some patterned paper behind it. To embellish the card, I used simple sticky back pearls.

 

 

Joulukortti tällä kertaa. Tämä on Stamping Bellan Gnome with a Candy Cane ja olen värittänyt sen Copiceilla. Yläreunan stanssasin Penny Blackin stanssilla ja taustalle laitoin kuviopaperia. Tekstileima ja puolihelmet viimeistelivät kortin.

Peonies - Pionit

I made a birthday card with some Mama Elephant goodies. I used Tags a Lot dies to die cut the card base and the banner and Peonies in Bloom stamps and dies for the flowers. I heat embossed the flowers with white embossing powder and coloured them with my Gansai Tambi watercolours. I used some pretty patterned paper for the background and a circular frame die cut with an MFT die. I stamped the birthday sentiment on the banner and embellished the card with some gold thread and some sparkly gold sequins.

 

I'm entering my card to the following challenges:

* TIME OUT Challenges: Challenge #168 - Photo Inspiration (I have the circular frame for the opening on the glass bauble, the flowers from the surfing board, and sparkly sequins for the shine on the glass bauble)

* Penny Black and More: August - Say It with Flowers

 

 

 

Synttärikortti syntyi Mama Elephantin tuotteilla. Korttipohjan ja bannerin stanssasin Tags a Lot -stansseilla ja kukat leimasin Peonies in Bloom -leimoilla, embossasin ne ensin valkoisella ja väritin sitten vesiväreillä. Taustalle hieman kuviopaperia ja kehys MFT:n stanssilla. Lopuksi tekstileima ja kultalankaa ja kullankimalteisia paljetteja koristeeksi.

The Flower Challenge #47: Reminder - Muistutus

We're midway through the August challenge at The Flower Challenge where our theme is Add Sparkle. As our Guest Designer we have Darnell Knauss.

 

 I used a stamp from the Weekend Doodles set by Altenew and coloured it with my Copics. I added some accents with a white gelly roll pen and I added some sparkle to the centres of the flowers with Nuvo shimmer pen. I die cut the frame with an MFT die and heat embossed the sentiment (it says 'This is your day') on a strip of cardstock. I added some more sparkle with clear sequins. The panel is raised from the cardbase with foam adhesives.

Elokuun haaste on puolessa The Flower Challengessä, jossa aiheena on Add Sparkle. Guest Designerina meillä on Darnell Knauss.

Käytin korttiini kukkaa Altenew'n Weekend Doodles -setistä, väritin sen Copiceilla ja lisäsin hieman valkoista geelikynää ja glitteriä kukkien keskustoihin. Kehyksen stanssasin MFT:n stanssilla ja tekstileiman embossasin. Lisäkimalletta tulee paljeteista. Paneeli on kohotettu korttipohjasta tarrapaloilla.

PBSC: August - Elokuu

 

 

It's the middle of August and time for a reminder post at Penny Black Saturday Challenge. Our theme this month is Anything Goes/Make Sentiment the Focus and as our Guest Designer we have Nonni. 

I decided to go with the optional theme again and I used a sentiment from the set Just Believe by Penny Black. I heat embossed it in gold and die cut a frame for it with Stitched Loops die. I also die cut the leaf border with Layered Leaves die. Lastly, I embellished the card with some gold sequins.

Vaihtoehtoisen teeman mukaan kortissani on teksti pääosassa. Se on Penny Blackin setistä Just Believe, embossasin sen kullalla. Kehykset sille stanssasin Stitched Loops -stanssilla ja lehtikoristeen Layered Leaves -stanssilla. Lopuksi koristelin kortin muutamalla paljetilla.

The Flower Challenge #47: August - Elokuu

The August challenge is on at The Flower Challenge and it's a lovely one, we're asking you to 'Add Sparkle'! Our Guest Designer is the fabulous Darnell Knauss.

I used a gorgeous stamp by Uniko, this is called Pure Florals: Peony. I heat embossed it with sparkly gold embossing powder before watercolouring the image. I wanted to keep the card simple so I only added the sentiment ('Warmest congratulations') before matting the panel onto pink cardstock and then to the card base.

Here's an angled view to show the sparkle.

Please do pop by The Flower Challenge blog to see all the inspiration created for you by my team mates and our Guest Designer. And please do join us with your sparkly floral creation!

I'm entering my card to the following challenge:

*Uniko Studio: Challenge #60 - In My Garden

Elokuun haaste The Flower Challengessä on alkamassa ja teemana on 'Add Sparkle'. Guest Designerina on Darnell Knauss.

Käytin korttiini Unikon Pure Florals: Peony -leimaa, jonka embossasin kimaltelevan kultaisella jauheella ja väritin vesiväreillä. Halusin pitää kortin yksinkertaisena, joten leimasin vain tekstin ja kerrostin paneelin pinkille kartongille ja sitten korttipohjaan.

AAA Birthday: August - Elokuu

It's time for the August challenge at AAA Birthday and we have a fun challenge for you: it's Tic Tac Toe! So just choose a row of three from the picture above and get going. As our Guest Designer, we have Jenny joining us.

My tic tac toe row is masculine - die cuts - patterned paper. As my stamped image, I chose this gentleman from the Martini Men set by Stamping Bella. I coloured the image with my Copics and fussy cut it out. For the background, I chose two different patterned papers and I die cut the smaller panel with an MFT die. I stamped and die cut the birthday sentiment and adhered everything in place, the gentleman is adhered with foam adhesive for a little extra dimension. Lastly, I embellished the card with some enamel dots.

PBSC: August - Elokuu

It's August and time for a new challenge at Penny Black Saturday Challenge. The theme is, as always, Anything Goes with the optional theme of Make Sentiment the Focus. We have a prize for our winner, $20 voucher to 1-2-3 Stitch!

I went with the optional theme and made a one-layer card with a prominent sentiment. The cute mice are from the set Critter Delights, I stamped it onto my cardbase and coloured with Zig markers. I then masked the rectangle and sponged some Distress Oxide ink to it. After removing the mask, I stamped the sentiment from the set Magical Friendship. Lastly, I splashed some water onto the Distress Oxide ink in order to add a bit of interest to the background.

Please do visit Penny Black Saturday Challenge to see the inspiration created for you by my lovely team mates and don't forget to join us!

Elokuun haasteen aika Penny Black Saturday Challengessä! Teemana on, kuten aina, Anything Goes ja vapaaehtoinen aihe on Make Sentiment the Focus. Palkinto on voittajalle tiedossa: $20 lahjakortti 1-2-3 Stitch!:lle.

Tein kortistani one-layerin ja leimasin leimakuvan setistä Critter Delights suoraan korttipohjaan. Kuvan väritin Zigeillä. Taustalle maskasin suorakulmion ja mustetin sitä Distress Oxide -musteella, jonka jälkeen leimasin tekstileiman setistä Magical Friendship. Lopuksi roiskin hieman vettä musteelle, että sain taustaan hieman eloa.
