What does the fox say?

Hi and happy Wednesday,

I admit I have my doubts about my next card.
It started with this cute cross-stitch pattern I found browsing on Pinterest.

 http://honderdprocentheppie.blogspot.nl/2012/11/het-moet-niet-gekker-worden.html

Then the song "what does the fox say" popped in my head (still hasn't completely go away its very persistent ;)).

I decided to make the pattern using sequins.

For the layout I used sketch # 101 from case this sketch

I used my die cut machine to cut out two circles.

Glued the sequins to a grey/blue circle. 

Made the sentiment in Word and printed it on the card stock,

Then I added three larger sequins under the sentiment and twine on the top of the card.

Well it is somewhat different.

Christmas Bunnies

Hi,

The whole family is sick with the flu. It is flu season here in the Netherlands :(
I'm on the mend and between a few naps I made this next card.

I adore the little bunnies from lawn fawn. Stamp set called snow day.

I stamped the bunnies on paper then scanned the stamped images into Photoshop to color and resize them.

Next I made a polaroid frame out of white cardstock. I punched out a snowflake in the edge.

The bp and trees are from glittery paper.

Made the sentiment myself using PS.

Felt flower wreath

Hi, I hope you are doing fine.

I played with felt yesterday and made some Christmas flowers. I wanted to use them on a card and decided to make a
wreath out of felt and placed the flowers on the wreath.
I used my die cutting machine for some of the flowers and the wreath.

I printed the sentiment on white cardstock and added a few pins, twine and a bow to complete the card. I love this color combo 

white, light green and a touch of red.

I think it's an x-tra special Christmas card.

Reach for the stars

Hi and happy Friday,

I would like to share with you a shaker card I made using (a part of) whimsie doodles background space border.

The spaceship, earth and astronaut are from that border digital stamp. I colored them in Photoshop.

The background paper is from the Simon Says Stamp March '14 card kit.

I punched little stars out of glittery white paper using this punch from a Dutch store (Hema)

I made the sentiment in Word using space themed fonts and printed it on the cardstock.

Christmas house

Hello,

I LOVE the Moodboard Monday Challenge. Not because my card was one of the highlights of last challenge ;) but because it's a different kind of craft challenge and because I like moodboards.

Tracy's fourth moodboard is this one:

When I saw the moodboard I immediately thought of a cute little house die cut I have.
That was my first inspiration. I also like the color combo white, light blue and light green,
I also was inspired by the cross stitch pattern on the candles. Well here is my card.

I made the sentiment using a cross stitch font.

The die cut is from Marianne designs collectables 2013.

The paper is from dovecraft.

completely-christmas-challenge: use some blue

Thanks so much for visiting. Have a nice day,

Warm Winter Birthday Wishes

Hi,

There are digital stamps that catches the eye right away and then you just have to have them.
That is what happened when I saw the new background borders from whimsie doodles. So stinkin' cute.

I made a card for a friends' upcoming birthday using the winter border.

I colored the digital in Photoshop. Cut it out, printed the sentiment on it and stick it to the background paper using 3d foam pads. 

The bp is from dovecraft.
