Mini Slimline Card

I made a mini slimline card, it's kind of fun to work with the smaller scale. I used Small Mini Slimline Stackables dies by Lawn Fawn for the different layers of this card, die cutting patterned paper and white cardstock with them and adhering them to my mini slimline cardbase. The pretty flower is a stamp from the Rainbow Floral stamp set by Pinkfresh Studio, I coloured it with my Copics and die cut with the matching die. The sentiment translates as 'Congratulating You on Your Birthday'. I embellished the card with some sequins and half pearls.

Poppies

I made this birthday card with an oldie but a goodie stamp from my stash, namely Delicate Blossoms by Hero Arts. I love poppies and this stamp is simply beautiful! I coloured the image with my Copics and added tiny details with my white gel pen. I then die cut the side border with a die from the Penny Black set Border Collection before embossing a piece of pink cardstock with a 3-D embossing folder Flowing Waves by Sizzix. I adhered the embossed piece of cardstock on my cardbase before adhering the panel onto it with foam adhesives. I heat embossed the sentiment (it translates as 'On Your Birthday') on a strip of black cardstock and adhered it in place before embellishing the card with some black gems.

Morning Glories

My mother-in-law turned 80 and we gave her this card. I haven't used Morning Glory Border stamp by The Ton for ages and decided to use it. I coloured the image with my Copics and matted the panel onto a piece of dark purple cardstock. I heat embossed the sentiment in gold (it translates as 'Warmest Congratulations') and added gold glitter numbers that I die cut with Memory Box dies. Lastly, I embellished the card with some gold gems.

Balloons

Here's a card I made using a Stamping Bella stamp called Tiny Townie Blossom Loves Balloons.  I paper pieced her dress, otherwise I coloured the image with my Copics. I also added Stickles glitter glue to the frills on her dress. I die cut the panel with an MFT die leaving half of the balloons out of the panel. After stamping the sentiment, I added a piece of patterned paper on my card base and adhered the panel onto it with foam adhesives. Lastly, I embellished the card with some pink gems.

Flowers

I purchased this stamp by Penny Black called Sweetly last autumn but haven't had a chance to ink it up until now. I coloured the image with my Copics before die cutting the panel with Sizzix Framelits die Tags, Rounded and lightly inking the edges with Distress Oxide ink in Old Paper. I dry embossed a piece of cardstock for the background with Texture embossing folder by Penny Black and adhered the panel on it with foam adhesives. I then heat embossed the birthday sentiment on a strip of dark grey cardstock and adhered it with foam adhesives as well. I embellished the card with a little die cut butterfly, a half pearl and some gems.

Happy Birthday

I think this little girl is so adorable, she looks like she has places to go and roses to deliver! She is Bundle Girl With A Rose by Stamping Bella, I coloured her with my Copics before cutting her with the matching die. In the background, there's some patterned paper, a frame die cut with Classy Frames by Penny Black and a sentiment (Finnish for 'Happy Birthday'). Also some gems as embellishments.

Sunflower

Today felt like a good day to colour a sunflower. 

The sunflower is from the Our Friendship Grows stamp set by Lawn Fawn and the sentiment is from the Blooming Sentiments sentiment set by Penny Black.
