Wedding card for my niece

Hello Crafty Friends,

Last week I was away on vacation to Israel,

because my niece was getting married.

It was a beautiful beach wedding. 

Of course i had to make her a card.

For my card I used two stamp sets by Stampin'Up!:

The left set is a very old wooden set called: Oh, how we danced

and the right set is called Love you still (more recent, but not

available in this years catalogue).

I used a lot of cold embossing powder and the background 

paper has golden dots. It is a pity you cannot see this.

The Cuppah (wedding canopy) is colored with

SU! blending markers.

The ceter part of the card I stamped first, before

I cut it out with this lovely scalloped square die.

This is the back of the card

and the stamped enveloppe (with gold embossing).

A peek at the happy couple.

May they have a long and happy life together.

Mazal Tov!

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Simon Says: Wedding/ Anniversary

This week on the Simon Says Monday blog 

it is all about Wedding/ Anniversary.

As I have no weddings coming up, I thought about

making this years anniversary card for my husband.

it is only on November 22, but as my husband is not in IG

and not looking at my blog, I can have my card ready early.

In all these years, I never made him a coffee card,

but I think this is a cute idea I noticed somewhere

and stayed in my brain to use one day.

I used a heart border punch,

coffee mugs are dies by My Favorite Things,

20 numbers are dies by Stampin'Up!,

and the sentiment and stamps inside the card

are by AlteNew clear stamps. The set is called

Coffee talk.

The little hearts on the mugs came out of the border punch.

The ribbon is from my stash.

Here the inside, leaving room to write at a later date.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Royal Wedding

 

Have you been watching the Royal Wedding?

Harry and Megan are married in a beautiful service,

beautiful surroundings and they looked stunning!

Did you have a good look at Queen Elizabeth?

Well she knew all about the Club Scrap

Lavender Fields kit and was dressed accordingly.

I made the pictures from the television with my ipad

and quickly made this pages after watching.

You find the Lavender Fields hybrid kit HERE.

Of course here one of the wedding pictures

I made from the television.

Soon there will be the official pictures.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Sunday Scrap Page: Wedding Anniversary

This week we went out to dinner to celebrate our 

17th wedding Anniversary. To make my page, I was inspired by 

the beautiful card I received from my good friend

Laura Holm (here her blog).

Laura made a beautiful background

and use the sweet heart rubber stamp

 from Michael Strong.

We had a delicious lobster dinner, a wonderful

cheesecake desert and of course coffee after in

a great bistro near our house.

Here more hearts that were inside the card

(was I lazy or what....)

and the sentiment is one from Club Scrap

as well as all the paper I used.

This I made with my beloved owl punch (I had seen

this image on pinterest and always wanted to do it).

The numbers are thinlits from Stampin'Up!.

Thank you for looking and have 

a very creative Sunday!

17th Wedding Anniversary

Today is our 17th wedding anniversary

and because it is Tuesday, we have the grandkids,

but tonight we go out to dinner for a little celebration.

Of course I had to make a card and I used

the Foxy Friends from Stampin'Up! with the 

matching punch for the cute foxes and the sentiment

is from the set Number of Years, also by Stampin'Up!

The bacjground is done with the Woodland embossing

folder. The tiny hearts are from the owl builder punch.

I made the little foxes wobble, just like before

with the snowman.

Here you see the contruction of the wire behind

the foxes.

Special LOVE coffee for DH this morning to start the day.

And another card that is also for the color challenge of

The Daily Marker,

were you also find all the information.

 I colored with Stampin'Up! markers. The image is a color

page i found on pinterest. Here is it for sharing with

my coffee friends:

Just save it to your computer with the right mouse button trick.

Here you see the finished card.

What you don't see well, is the cup is 3d. i colored and

extra cup and added this with foam tape to the image.

Little gemstones to make the card real blingy.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Wedding Anniversary

Today is my Wedding Anniversary

and instead of scrapping,I share with you the card

I made for my DH.Yes, this year it is a coffee card!

We both like our cup of coffee. We both drink our coffee 

black (me with a sweetner and Ray with a sugar).

We both love the Nespresso coffee.

Ray likes an espresso now and then

and my absolute favourite is a Pumpkin latte now and then!

(but you - who read my blog- must have noticed that!).

I made this matching enveloppe for the card

using coffee ring stamp, beans and a coffee stamp stamp

(funny ha!)

For the card i used

Michael Strong's large heart stamp and mini coffee cup.

you might notice that I used a mirror image of the

coffee cup stamp. How did I do that, you will ask for sure.

Hereis a tutorial:

http://lawnscaping.blogspot.nl/2014/11/two-cards-using-mirror-stamping.html

The background is a piece of scrap paper

worked over with the beans and the

coffee ring stamp.

The large heart is copper paper and copper embossing

powder. The cup is blue paper and copper embossed.

I am in love with that pearl in the cup, so I had to do it again.

The sentiment on this card is from Create with TLC.

Printed with the coputer and cut with a die.

 Here you see the card waiting next to Raymond's

morning coffee.

Thanks everyone for looking

and your wonderful comments.

Have a day full of LOVE!

Happy Anniversary!

Today is the 7th Wedding Anniversary of my

DD Yael and SIL Frank.Of course I have to make them a card

and there has to be a Michael Strong heart on it!

Why you may ask: well, I made their wedding invitation

with Mike's heart and since then all their anniversary cards

had Mike's heart on it.

So this is the card I created A CAS card (clean and simple).

I used the heart on the place of the "o" in the word love.

They are all stamped and embossed in black and red embossing powder.

The sentiment is by Club Scrap.

Of course the inside is decorated as well.

The lines are drawn by hand.

If you clickon the picture,

you see a close up of this pannel.

Wishing Yael and Frank a wonderful day

and many more happy years together!

Have a creative day!

Tim Holtz tag:November Anniversary

Today is my 15th Wedding Anniversary to 

the love of my life:  Raymond and inspired

by the November tag by Tim Holtz 

I made this tag my Anniversary tag:

Thank you, my dear, for 

15 wonderful years

xxx

I want to share with you how I made this tag:

Things I used:

tag

corrugated card board

distress paint and spray

versamark, clear embossing powder

Michael Strong heart stamp

I started with stamping the heart stamp on the tag

with versamark and adding clear embossing powder.

Then heating it with the heatgun.

On apiece of scrap paper (larger then the tag) I stamped

the heart stamp in red. This way I could see the lines well

and cut out the heart.

The open heart was laid over the stamped tag for

the placement of the heart and I cut the scrap paper

exactly the size of the tag.Now i put it on the corrugated

bord and after tracing the heart with a pencil, 

I cut out the heart in the board.

Now to color the tag with the direct to paper technique.

Adding color on my craft sheet and spraying it with water,

the palette is ready for coloring.

Put the tag face down on the craft sheet to add the color.

You need to do this a few times for a complete

covering of the tag.

Tag ready for the next step.

Corrugated card bord is next to

get ready by starting to tear some of the 

paper of the tag.

Coloring the board with festive berries on top

and around the tag.

Finishing it of with red and gold distress spray.

When tag and board are completely dre I glued

them together and decorated the tag

with the ticket, the numbered paper clips,

an arrow and some red tinsel twine.

On top a red ribbon and a clock for I hope

we will have lots more time together!

Thanks for looking!

Have a creative day!
