Rainbow smile

 

 

We have had a few days where it almost seemed like spring and maybe that was what made me want to create a bright and happy card.

 

I chose to combine Framelits Die Set 12PK - Fancy Cards with the rainbow and sun from Thinlits Die Set 7PK - You & Me to build my little scene.

You cannot have a rainbow without rain so I made a shaker bag behind the rainbow scene. Here I added blue sequins as well as silver glitter. I double stitched along the edges of the vellum but some glitter will still escape... Just think of that when you chose who to send a card like this to.

Måske blev jeg inspireret af de par forårslignende dage vi har haft over de seneste uger, da jeg besluttede mig for at lave et friskt regnbuekort.

Jeg valgte at kombinere Framelits Die Set 12PK - Fancy Cards og Thinlits Die Set 7PK - You & Me til at bygge min scene op med.

Man kan jo ikke have en regnbue uden at have regn, så jeg lavede en shaker-pose bag motivet. Heri fyldte jeg glimmer og blå pailetter. Selvom jeg syede to gange rundt lang vellummets kant, så slipper der stadig lidt glimmer ud. Det skal man lige tænke over, når man vælger, hvem man sender kortet til.

Bright hello

 

 

I love Christmas dearly but right around now creating something non-Christmassy feels wonderful so I've made a bright cheerful card that can be send for any occasion.

 

 

I went with a bright colour palette, a bold patterned paper and a minimum of embellishment for this card. It almost makes me think of spring...

 

 

 

 

My main focus was a diecut hello (made with a die from Thinlits Die Set 7PK - You & Me) that I coloured in an ombre pattern using Inktense colour pencils. I diecut two extra words and glued under the one I'd coloured giving the word some dimension.

 

I used a die from Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards to cut a black cardstock rectangle on which I ground my sentiment and a few embellishments. I tied some baker's twine around the card before adding the black rectangle to the card.

Jeg holder meget af julen, men lige omkring på dette tidspunkt kan det være skønt at skabe noget, der overhoved ikke har noget med jul at gøre.

 

Til dette kort valgte jeg friske farver, et enkelt mønstret papir og nogle få detaljer, og resultatet er et kort, der nærmest minder mig om forår.

 

Fokus for kortet er et ord udstanset med en die fra Thinlits Die Set 7PK - You & Me. Jeg farvelagde ordet i en farveskala med Inktense farveblyanter, før jeg limede to udstansninger af samme ord under den farvelagte. Det giver ordet dimension.

 

Med en die fra Thinlits Die Set 10PK - Phrase Cards udstansede jeg en sort rektangel, som jeg brugte til at samle mine forskellige detaljer på. Inden jeg monterede det på kortet, bandt jeg lidt baker's twine omkring kortet.

I *Heart* This !

Hi, it's Bente and I am here today to show you some fun cards that I made with some of my recently aquired dies.

Sizzix really has had some truly great releases recently that work perfectly for pocket scrapbooking and traditional scrapbooking and cards  alike.

For my 'Hello' card I combined dies from two different sets.

I think the instagram frame with  'I <3 This'  is really fun and I like that you can use the inner square from one and exchange it for a different coloured one. It makes a great background for some cute embellishments. :-)

 I used some pop dots to raise some of my bits and pieces and achieve an even cooler look.

 With these dies you can make nice cards for a variety of occations in no time at all!

The supplies I used are:
Sizzix Big Shot Starter kit 
Sizix Thinlits die set 7 pk - You & Me
Sizzix Thinlits die set 6 pk - I heart This

Besides these items I used papers from Crate 'Paper Heart' collection.

Hejan!
Här har jag ett par nya kort gjorda med mina nyaste dies.
Många av de senaste kollektionerna är perfekta både för pocket scrapbooking (typ: project life) och traditionell scrapbooking och kort.
För att göta mitt 'Hello' har jag kombinert två set av nya dies.

Jag är förtjust i den roliga instgram ramen och tycker att det är en trevlig detalj att du kan använde den inre kvadraten från en ram att matcha med en annan färg . Det blir en fin bakgrund att dekorera med både die cuts och annat pynt.

Jag höjde upp valda delar av motiven genom att använda limkuddar.
Som ni förstår kan man snabbt göra roliga kort till envar anledning med dessa fina dies.

Produkterna jag använde här var:
Sizzix Big Shot Starter kit 
Sizix Thinlits die set 7 pk - You & Me
Sizzix Thinlits die set 6 pk - I heart This

Och förutom dessa har jag använt Crate's 'Paper Heart' kollektion.
