Proost!

 Hello Crafty Friends,

Here are some masculine cards I made with the ladies of the carehome.

I used a new die by Marianne Design with "Proost" all round the circle.

This is Dutch for  Cheers!

The bottle and glass stamps are by Tim Holts (whine blueprints).

And some golden corner stickers.

The dark brown middle part is embossed with 3d woodgrain

and the background is a piece of design paper.

For the 2nd card (we usually make 2 cards) I used a coloring

page, but rezized it so it would fit in the circle.

Some of the ladies love to color.

I love using the Tim Holtz stamps, so I made another card for my own

collection. The sentiment: Proost! op je gezondheid, means:

Cheers! to your health.

For the background I used a TH stencil and rusty hinge distress ink,

some splatter and washi tape.

The images are colored with alcohol markers and on the glass I added

some glossy accent.

Thank you for looking

and have a crafty day!

Anything but a card

So another challenge on the

Bugaboo 10th Annual Birthday Bash

is anything but a card.

So I made these baby pillboxes for little gifts.

Baby socks fit in perfectly.

The cute baby cow was a July freebie at one time,

but i cannot find it in the shop anymore.

Around the images (cut with a thinlit die with holes)

I crochet these cute borders. With foam tape the

circles are attached to the boxes, that where cut out

of design paper with a Marianne Design pillbox creatable.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Lions for my grandson

Yesterday I went to a craft show with a friend

and found this wonderful set of dies.

As my grandson is a big fan of lions, I had

to have this die set and here are my first creations.

Marianne Design Die - Eline's Lion and Tiger

For this card I used some design jungle paper

for the background.

And I had this fun die and stampset from 

Stampin'Up! called Tropical Chic.

I also made this bookmark

for when you start learning to read

you need one.

Thanks for looking

and have a creative day!
