Wow, Kristine made a card...

I have made the June challenge at the Ett Trykk blog, and this month you have to use newspaper as an element on your card.

Jeg brukte avispapir på bakgrunnen. Dagens Næringsliv var fin å bruke, for fargene matchet papiret fra Graphic 45 og vintagebildet! Jeg har stemplet med bobleplast og crackle paint i hjørnene, og svertet over med Distress Ink.
I used newspaper on the background, and stamped with crackle paint and bubble wrap on top.

Jeg klippet også ut bursdagsteksten fra en avis. Gratulasjonssidene er flotte til dett, for der fins det diverse tekster å klippe fra.
The text was cut from a newspaper too.

Cardstock: Bazzill - Kraft
Design Papers: Graphic 45
Inks: Distress Ink - Wild Honey, Walnut Stain

Til en sprek 60-åring!

Fredag fylte mamma 60 år. Hun elsker å sy og hadde ønsket seg en overlock symaskin. Hun fikk selvfølgelig det av familien og i den sammenheng laget jeg et kort til henne med sying som tema.

On Friday my mother turned 60. She loves sewing and had wished for an overlock sewing machine. The family bought one for her and I made a card with a sewing theme. This card is my entry for Stamptacular Sunday #108(layers).

Jeg fant noen stilige sy-bilder på internett som passet fint til kortet. Dette pin-up bildet er et av dem. Papirene er fra Fancy Pants.

 American Crafts stickers ble brukt til tallene. Tag'en er klippet ut av et av mønsterarkene fra Fancy Pants(it's the little things).

Kortet er laget av en brun papirpose. Den er punchet med Martha Stewart Doily Lace punch i åpningen. På innsiden har jeg laget en tag som er pyntet med diverse vintage stempler fra Inkido og et gammelt frimerke(med et 60-tall på).

Innsiden av kortet inneholder mer syrelaterte motiver og pynt.

Her er noen gamle knapper på den originale emballasjen. De har jeg kjøpt på ebay. Jeg har også brukt noen synåler som pynt.

Inni den søte papirposen(hang på noen klær vi har kjøpt), puttet jeg en tag med hilsen til jubilanten. Tekststempel er fra Norsk Stempelblad. Fugl er fra Inkido.

Her har jeg laget an gammel postkort-tag med stempler fra Inkido, et gammelt frimerke og vintagebilde fra internett.

På baksiden av kortet fikk jeg også plass til et vintagebilde. Det er fra et gammelt symønster.

Yellow Vintage ~ Birthday Card

At the Picture and Scrap challenge blog, they challenge you to make a card/creation with a chosen vintage image. Today I've made a yellow birthday card in vintage style, and I think it is my first vintage card in yellow :) It was so much fun so I think I need to try it more!

 The base of the card is a brown paper bag, folded in two and sewn on 3 sides. On the 4th side it's open and you'll have an opening for a tag.

The flowers were originally white and to give them the right colour, I used some of my Copic Markers.

The vintage image was originally black/white. To make it match my card, I gave it a yellow/sepia tint in Photoshop.

The tag inside the card was made by water colour paper. I thinks this is noce to use for the vintage cards because of the texture on it. I used a Martha Stewart border punch on the top and my star stamp around the label.
Supplies for this card:
Cardstock: Brown Paper Bag, Water Colour Paper, Bazzill - Yellow siss dot cardstock
Design Papers: Stampin Up
Inks: Distress Ink - Brushed Corduroy, Archival Ink - Coffee, Sepia
Stamps: Stempelglede - gratulerer med dagen, Inkido - stars
Tools: Sewing Machine, Spellbinders - dies, Martha Stewart - border punch
Others: Wild Orchid Crafts - flowers, Stampin Up - ribbon, Shimmer Spritz - Chikadee, Glimmer Mist - Wheatfields, Picture And Scrap - vintage image, Kort og Godt- die cut frame, Inkido - white pearls. Button and charm from my stash.

Birthday Pocket Card

Today I've created a card in fresh, bold colours which remind me of Spring. It is a pocket card with a blue tag inside the pocket.

The card is sprayed with Glimmer Mist Old Lace.

On the blue tag I've used the edge die "Brackets" from Tim holtz. I've added a smaller double tag too. The button keeps it closed, and I've used the doily lace punch on the edge of it.

Here is the flap opened and there is space to write greetings to the recipient.
