Vintage Fancy Fold Corner Card

Hello, hello
today I would like to show a project that is very dear to my heart.
I have the honor of being a member of the Taylormadecards4u Design Team.
It is like a dream come true.
Being part of this team gives me the opportunity to work with vintage related supplies and not only, being able to improve my mixed media skills.
So, for today I have a Fancy Fold Corner card which I decorated with supplies provided by Monica Taylor - owner of Taylormadecard4u. - Make sure you check her store, stunning products :)

For today's project I worked with Christmas Vintage ads and Toys and Dolls tags and ephemera.

I also used some supplies from my stash and had a blast decorating it.
I wanted to make it as a more complex card so I added an inside pocket where I put the tags, so it is a 2 in 1 card.
This is the result:

- spotlight for the images I used -

Really hope you will like it and stay tuned ... there is more to come :)

Happy holidays and stay safe!

Goha Reading Girl - project #2

Christmas is just around the corner :)

Cannot wait for it!

Today's project is made with a very beautiful 

digital stamp from Goha Digital Stamps - the reading girl. it is my second project as a DT for them and I am really enjoying these cute digital stamps.
If you want to see more of these beautiful stamps you can go here 

I chose to make a surprise slide card because I think it really pops up and it gives the image an extra something :)

So ...

1. Cut my 10.5 x 14.5 cm card base from 260 g/mp2 cardstock

2. Embossed the snowflakes and then used Distress Oxide to sharpen a little the panel.

3. Printed, colored with Polychromos the stamps, both the Girl and the tree - which I found in my stash.

4. Designed the sliding mechanism using a piece of wooden sheet and foam tape.

5. Stamped the sentiment on the pulling tab 

6. Finishing touches, glossy accents and some glitter.

And here it is!

Really hope you will enjoy it!

Happy Holidays everyone :)

Sciarpina card - Brown Sugar Challenge - December

It is time for another DT project for Brown Sugar

The theme is DECEMBER makes. 

 
This month's sponsor is Glimps Stamps. Amazing stamps designed by Veronica. More info at the end of my post :)

For my project I used the gorgeous stamp called SCIARPINA.

I wanted to play a little so i decided to make a mixed media card.

Steps:

1. Cut a 14 x 14 cm card base - red card stock

2. Added a 13.5 x 13.5 cm cream cardstock and a 13 x13 cm pattern paper which looks like a knitted piece.

3. Printed and colored the stamp using Polychromos pencil - really had fun with it.

4. Added all sorts of deco elements: chipboard snowflake, die cut sentiment, flowers and a piece of gauze. Added some snow paste and distressed with inks and there it is.

 Hope you like it!

Happy holidays!

Let's get lit!

The weather in Norway is pretty chilly lately and slowly it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas :)

So, because we have looonnnggggg nights here, I will try and lit things up with this card I made, as a Guest DT for Beth Duff Designs.

I used the Let's Get Lit stamp set. I tried to use as many elements from it so I decided to make a shaker card.

Steps:

1. Cut a 17 x 12.5 cm card base from a 260g/mp2 ivory cardstock.

2. Cut a piece of Bristol smooth paper of 16 x 11 cm and played a little with Distress inks - Oxide Fired Brick and Ink - Mustard Seed. 

3. Stamped and embossed the sentiment using Gold embossing powder and added some lights with black ink.

4. Cut the shape of the window using a die from Tonic Studios.

5. Stamped and colored using Polychromos pencils, the reindeer, the tree and the ornaments.

6. Assembled everything together, added final touches using glitter and glossy accents ...

and this is the result!

   Hope you'll like it! Happy Holidays everyone!
