Bookmark

I needed a bookmark,

so I made one

with this beautiful peacock image from Beccy.

I fussy cut it and glued it to white card stock.

The corners were made by a corner punch from Heyda.

Blue pen for the lines on the long sides of the bookmark.

Blue and green ribbons.

So happy I had colours that fit with the image!

I placed a little flower button on the ribbon.

House Mouse Card: "Berry Please"

Here comes my second House Mouse card for this challenge,

"House Mouse with another animal or bird".

I used stamp number 382 "Berry Please" from 1999.

I stamped the image on white card stock,

colored it with water color pencils and a water brush.

then I cut it with a WeR Memory Keepers Nesting Card die

and mounted it on blue card stock on a white double card A6.

Tool: Cuttlebug.

July Rudolph Days CAS Kitty Snuggle

For this month's Rudolph Days card

I used this cute House Mouse stamp

"Kitty Snuggle" (HMI 1002) from 1999.

I stamped it on white card stock

and colored it with water color pencils and a water brush.

Then I made a thin green line at the edges

and wrote the word Peace on the card stock.

At last I mounted the card stock on a white double card, A6.

I think this CAS card doesn't need any stash.

Greeting Card CAS

 For this greeting card I used the July freebie.

Thank you for a beautiful image, Beccy!

This time I did not use an extra mat as a background for the image.

I find the structured card stock on this A6 double card

good enough as a background.

The only paper I used: Yellow scrap papers.

The image is printed on a "normal" printer paper

and glued to white card stock.

With my Cuttlebug:

WeR Memory Keepers Nesting Card dies (2 x),

Spellbinders Circle die.

Stamp: Heyda.

(The blue around the card is my table cloth 😉)

Not so much sunshine, but I think the yellow flowers are a sort of small suns.

A Girl's Card, CAS

During the last weeks we had extremely high temperatures here

in the middle and southern part of Europe.

(I live in Switzerland.)

And I had no inspiration for card making at all.

So my blog is rather empty .....

But today I made a card after a very long time.

Hope the inspiration will return soon.

I used:

White card stock,

Pink paper, blue scrap paper.

Image: Beccy.

I decorated the background with Nuvo Shimmer Powder.

Dies used:

WeR Memory Keepers Nesting Card die,

Marianne Design Note Key

Blue pen for the faux stitches and the notes.

Tool: Cuttlebug.
