Brown Sugar Challenge

Birthday Card

I want to use this embossing folder again

which was a free gift with an English crafting magazine

I bought in Norway last month.

For "Seize the Birthday"'s challenge "Red, white and you"

I chose green as the third colour.

I used:

White double card A6;

White card stock;

Snippets of green and red papers;

Distress ink, rhine stones and markers;

Embossing folder: "Swan and roses" (Papercraft);

Die: "Ivy" (Cottage Cutz);

Flowers: EK Success punch.

I embossed two different white card stocks

and coloured one of them with red distress ink.

Then I cut out the ribbon with the sentiment

from the coloured card stock

and glued it on the same place on the other one.

Red pen for the faux stitches.

I want to take place here:

Seize the birthday (Red, white and green)

Purple distress ink for the edges and the greeting.

Litt hekling

Det er ikke ofte jeg hekler.

Men denne uken fant jeg ut

at jeg skulle lage trekk til noen glass og bokser

som jeg har tatt vare på.

Det har hopet seg opp med restegarn etter klutestrikking,

og det er greit å få brukt det opp slik.

Dette var den opprinnelige boksen:

Og slik ble det ferdige resultatet:

Nå har jeg fått en passende oppbevaringsboks til krus-brikkene jeg heklet for et års tid siden.
