AlliElla Craft: Flip Fold Card

AlliElla Craft: Flip Fold Card: Hello, hello, hope everyone is OK and you are all enjoying a calm weekend. Today I want to show you a card I made for a dear friend....

Flip Fold Card

Hello, hello,

hope everyone is OK and you are all enjoying a calm weekend.
Today I want to show you a card I made for a dear friend. It is a Flip Flop Card, made after an inspiring tutorial from the same talented and amazing lady, Jen Evers.
This is a birthday which I adapted after my own style. Instead of a blank piece of paper for written birthday wishes, I designed a small pocket for two tags. 
I used some paper roses and flowers for the decorating part. I also used a lacey border made with a die I have had for a long time. 
I also added the ribbon which ties the two middle parts so it gives the impression of a corset. 
This is what it came up in the end.
If you like it, feel free to leave a comment, if you do not like, you can leave a comment too :)





until next time, huggies all and take care! xoxo

#2 Beautiful birthday wishes

Hello everyone,


today's post is about a project made for August KTC Blog Challenge. I wanted to make sure my project fits entirely the topic
                               Turquoise OR Yellow OR Balloons :)
So I decided to make a 15 x 15 cm card.

I cut the card base from a 240 g card stock. I glued the first layer with some pattern paper from Marianne design I had in my stock for some time now. 
I also embossed a smaller piece of the same card stock as the base with a pretty embossing folder with butterflies. 
I printed and fussy cut the butterflies, I printed them on a sheet of turquoise paper. I also printed the sentiments and the beautiful Dhalia from the amazing digi stamp pack from the monthly sponsor Graciellie Designs .
I colored the flower with Derwent Inktense and Watercolor pencils and then I crumbled it. I added some glossy accents and then glued it on the cad base. 
Added the sentiments and this is what it turned out








Short review then:
The theme for August is:
Turquoise OR Yellow OR Balloons

I know you can do this!

Koala Bear Digi Stamp Project


Hello, hello
this is post is about a card I made using a Koala T Crafts template for a Bendy Style Card and an amazing digi stamp, a Koala Bear designed by the talented Jen Evers. As you may already know, and if you don't I'll tell you again, Jen started designing digi stamp after digi stamp, so fun to color and such amazing designs. You can purchase them either blank or already colored from the store.

This is what I did in order to accomplish my task.
- I printed 2 bears in different sizes and I colored them with Faber Castell colored pencils, Watercolor and Inktense pencils from Derwent. 
- I made the card template using Jen's tutorial, which by the way is the easiest lesson one could get :). I decorated the blank card with patterned paper i found in my stash, I tried to find something that matched the koala bear theme. 
- I decided to go with green and pink, it seemed to go well together and they turned out ok. I added some leaves and a sentiment. 
- The sentiment is handwritten and then fussy cut. And ta tam, this is what it turned out :)
Hope you'll like it, feel free to leave a comment if you'd like.

Huggies all and take care!

I choose to work with an amazing digi stamp called beautiful birthday wishes
this time i wanted something different so instead of a card I made a mixed media project.
I made the background from a recycled piece of card board, added white card colored with watercolor pencils and decorated with stamps, structure paste and acrylics. I separately colored the flower and the two butterflies using Inktense and Watercolor pencils from Derwent. I assembled everything together and here it is. Hope you'll like it and will be inspired to take a chance on making your own project and enter the blog challenge.

My first DT project for the Koala T Crafts Blog Challenge

Hello, hello
This is my very first project as a member of the Koala T Crafts blog challenge DT.
It was designed with an amazing digi stamp offered by the sponsor of the month : Sheri Baldy
The theme for the challenge was: blue, red or stars and/or a digi stamp from the sponsor of the month.
I decided to watercolor the stamp and put it on a 15x15 cm card base. Added some layers and decided upon a sea theme. This is what it came out.

Book tag

Back in business  :)/Am revenit :)
Book sign/Tag /Semn de carte/Tag

It's been a while since I sat at my crafting desk, but fortunately the break is over. 
I opened the stamp box and found a stamp that I somehow recently bought :) 
So this is what turned out, it can be a book sign or a tag ...
 I used a stamp from #whiffofjoy, dies from #Elizabeth Craft Design and some leftovers from my paper stash

A trecut ceva vreme de când nu am mai lucrat, din fericire însă pauza s-a terminat. Mi-am deschis cutia cu ștampile și am găsit una pe care am luat-o de curând :)
Iată ce a ieșit, poate fi un se,mn de carte sau un tag ...
Am folosit ștampila de la Whiff of Joy, matriță Elizabeth Craft Design și niște resturi de cartoane :)






Happy crafting until next time :)
Meștereală plăcută, pe data viitoare :)
