Dream Little One

Last week I bought a second hand Cricut. It's one of the older versions and not what I was looking for (that I know now). Still it comes to use like on this baby card.  It's a really simple card with just two elements and a sentiment.

Pretty Cute Stamps Challenge - Animal Kindgom

It's time again for the Pretty Cute Stamps Challenge and this month the theme is: Animal Kingdom.

You can make any project you want as long as it has a Pretty Cute Animal stamp on it. Pretty Cute Stamps has lots of animal stamps in store, not only clear but also digital and you may use either one on your project.

I've made a card using digital stamps from the Sea Ya Soon set, the cute turtle and the sentiment.

And also one of the wave border stamps.

My inspiration came from the movie Finding Nemo, being the part were Nemo and Dory are swimming with a group of turtles. The little turtles were so adorable.

I've made this card completely digital in Photoshop.

I hope you'll join us in this challenge and maybe you'll be the winner of a $15 Gift Certificate to the pretty cute stamps store.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs, Henriette

Autumn II

I just love making card using little icons. I have made a few in the past and today I'm sharing another autumn card using autumn themed icons. These icons are a free download pack from flaticon.com.

First I made the background piece in photoshop by opening a new document and then placing, resizing and rotating all the individual items. Then I get something like this.

I print this and cut out a panel with a MFT die.

The foxes on the card are also part of the icon set. I printed one a bit smaller than the other.

The word "autumn" is from miss kate cuttables.

I do like how this card turned out. It has a real autumn feel and at the same time it's also cute.

I'm entering this card in these two challenges:

Hey, Little Sailor

Today I'm sharing a clean and simple card I've made using the cute Little Sailor set and the flag on the Sailmate set from the Pretty Cute Stamps July release.

I colored all the digital elements in photoshop. 

After coloring I rotated the flag and duplicate it and resized the boat so that it would look like a toy. 

That is the benefit of using digital images, you can resize, duplicate and rotate them so easily.

For the backpanel and stitching on the sentiment I used dies from My Favorite Things.

This would make a cute card for a little boy.

I hope you have enjoyed my post. Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs, Henriette.

Little one

Yesterday I shared a milk carton project with you which had a cute bunny on it from kartenwind.
I made a card with that same bunny on it, not with an Easter theme but a baby theme this time.

The idea for this card came from Kelly Latevola on the Create a smile blog.

First I sponged the background using light pink, pink and light purple dye inks.

Just like Kelly did on her card I added text to make it more interesting. I stamped the word "baby" in the same 

light pink ink and little hearts in light purple.

I colored the bunny with spectrum noir markers.

Then I made the sentiment in word, using a brush font for the word "welcome" and printed it on vellum.

artistic inspirations: challenge 153

live laugh stamp: critters and creatures

love to scrap challenge: anything goes

crazy challenge: new baby

What's cooking?

(all images are from Pinterest)

Japanese Kawaii, I love it. It's sooo darn cute.
I can watch it for hours on Pinterest and Instagram.

I also like bento. It's awesome how some people decorate their lunch boxes, like this one.

 

I would not have the time to make such a lunchbox for my child on a working day.

All these Japanese images are so very cute and adorable. 

My next card also has some kawaii images on it. I made this card for this weeks Muse challenge.

Here is the muse card from Kate. Love that card with the small stamps!

My inspiration were the little images.

I used little images from MyShinyBoy on Deviantart (free download) and placed them in a row using Photoshop.
Then I added the sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!

Hugs, Henriette

Unicorn

I found this cute chubby unicorn freebie at useless trinkets and used it on a birthday card.
She (or he) reminded me of the unicorn in despicable me.
The background I made using memento dew drops inkt pads and lots of water.
The cute unicorn I colored in Photoshop. The balloon are stamps from a previous Simon says stamp card kit.
The sentiment is also from useless trinkets.
It turned out a sweet birthday card in candy colors.

Entering this card in these challenges:

cutie pie challenge: pretty in pink
simon says stamp: monday challenge: throwback I used the watercolor challenge
eureka stamps: pets and animals

Thanks for the visit. Till next time! Hugs Henriëtte.

Warm Winter Wishes

Hi,

Besides crafting, I spent a lot of spare time searching the world wide web for cute images, digital stamps, printables etc. As well as Google, one of the best places to search is Pinterest but also Etsy and Flickr.
The image on my next card "Winter Sisters" is from Vera Lane Studio on Etsy, so darn cute.

I did the coloring in Photoshop.
Made the sentiment in the same colours. Kept the card very clean and simple.
