Flowers From Scrap Papers

 For this card I used a patterned cardstock from Studio Light for the mat.
I have had that paper for years, but first now, after we moved, I discovered it.
So it is quite new to me.

I have lots of scrap papers from earlier projects. Now it is time to use them.

Flower punch: EK Success.

Leaves: Craft Sensations die.
The jug is an image from Beccy.
I coloured it with watercolour pencils.
A little bit of Stickles on the flowers and some doodling here and there finish the bouquet.

The Summer Girl 2

As I was a child,

I used to get books from my dear grandmother

for every Christmas and every birthday.

One of the "birthday books" was called

"The Summer Girl"

("Sommerpiken" in Norwegian),

and I thought of this book

as I used Beccy's "The Rose Hat" image

for my last cards.

Therefor I call these cards "The Summer Girl".

Here comes number 2.

I used:

White double card,

Sigel's patterned paper with the sky and the clouds for the mat.

A leftover from a patterned paper from "More Time To Craft".

Scrap papers, different colours.

Image from Beccy: "The rose hat", 

coloured with water colour pencils and a water brush.

Dies:

Fence: Marianne Design,

Grass: Nellie Snellen.

Punches:

Cat: Atelier Terziev,

Flowers: EK Success.

Easter Card

I made this Easter card in a quite another way

than I have done earlier.

I stamped a frame of flowers on the white card stock;

used a flower stamp from Craft Sensations and brown distress ink.

Then I coloured the flowers with coloured pencils.

The middle of the card was coloured with water colour pencils.

The image and the sentiment are both from Beccy.

I used the precoloured image

and painted some of the eggs with Nuvo Shimmer Powder

to give the image a personal touch.

3D pads on the back of the eggs.

Also the gold on the sentiment 

is made with Nuvo Shimmer Powder.

Image fussy cut,

Label: WeR Memory Keepers Nesting Card die.

Green pen for the faux stitches.

Home, Sweet Home

When I use digital images on my cards,
I often choose pre coloured ones.

But as I saw this stool on one of Beccy's

"Welcome home" set,

I thought of my mother's yellow stool

where she sat as she was sowing and planting.

And while she was doing that during the spring,

I wanted to use light spring colours on my picture.
I have so good memories of my dear parents,
doing their garden so well.

White double card A6,
White card stock.
