A gift set , by Mindy!

Hello, Mindy here. I have a little project to share with you. A card and matching flower bouquet.

I saw this scrapbook paper at a local scrap store and couldn't resist. I should be making some Christmas cards but here I am with the Springy-est  of all Spring cards!

 

I've used these super adorable image, the one on the card is called Busy Posties - Simply Maya  and the one on the bouquet is called Stitched up with love - Simply Maya .

They are both from the Simply Maya Collection.

 

Thanks for having a look at my project. I hope you like them.

Have a great day!

Hark The Herald Angels Sing

Hello all,

It's Mandy here with you today sharing a Christmas card using the beautiful Angel With Harp image.

 I loved this pretty image as soon as I saw her knowing I would enjoy colouring her with my copics,  I was so happy when I received the package from Whiff of Joy containing lots of gorgeous things including this beautiful stamp.

I have coloured the image using my copics; embellished my card with Pion paper, Simon Says Stamp Vintage paper; Bazzil cardstock.

I have also used Whiff of Joy's Swirly leaves; Sweet Tags with Hearts dies, a pearl brad, some half pearls & a charm from the Silent Night box set.

Make your own parchment paper pocket

Hi there,

Today I want to show you how to create your own parchment paper pocket.

What do you need for this

- candle nested die-lights

- parchment paper

- cardstock

- versamark watermark stamp pad

- embossing pouder

- stamp (I used one from the secret winter stamp kit)

- heatgun

Measure a piece of cardstock so that the nested die-light fitts in it.

Take a piece of parchment papers, and cut it on the sides 0,3 cm smaller and

on the top tear off the parchment paper.

Place some stamps on the parchment paper with your versamark ink pad

and cover it with the embossing powder.

Shake off the excess and heat it with a heatgun.

Sew the two layers together with a sewing machine.

Here is my tag with the pocket.

and some detailed photo's,

on the left you see that cute Christmas tag die-light and the star from the button die-lights

covered with glossy accents.

on the right you see a little piece of the snowburst die-light and the sparkling Joy stamps

(also from the secret winter kit)

Have a nice day,
