My name is Liv. I am a Norwegian woman, living in Switzerland since 2005 together with my Swiss husband. Until 2014 we were the pastor couple of our evangelical Church. I love my husband and my wonderful Savior Jesus Christ. My hobbies are card making, knitting, drawing and singing. And I love cats.

Greeting Card

I like to have some cards without any sentiment ready,

so that I can quickly glue the right text on it

when I know for what occasion it should be.

This one is such a card.

It may be used for instance for a birthday, as a "thank you" card,

or even as a sympathy card.

And I find it good also without any sentiment.

There is enough place on the inside to write your greeting.

I used:

White double card A6,

White card stock.

Image: "Freesias" (pre coloured), Beccy.

Embossing folder: "Swiss Dots", Cuttlebug.

Die: Spellbinders "Oval".

I used the die for a "window" and glued the image behind it.

Tool: Cuttlebug.

Birthday Card Dance

I did not stamp "Happy Birthday" on the card.

But it is a birthday card for a friend of mine.

Her birthday is today,

and a couple of hours ago I put the card in her mail box.

A birthday surprise this corona time, I think.

Also for this card

I used a paper from "A bit more time to craft" for the background.

Double card A6,

Snippets of white paper and white card stock.

Marianne Design die (LR0165),

Punces:

Martha Stewart "Lace", EK Success "Flower" and Heyda "Corner".
Glitter on the flowers, brown distress ink and brown pen.

uansett anledning.

Nå kan jeg vise kortet her, siden bryllupet er i dag.

Jeg brukte:

Hvitt dobbelkort, A6,

Hvit card stock.

Mønsterpapir fra Sigel og Eline.

Embossing: "Swiss Dots" fra Cuttlebug.

Dies:

Ringene er en sticker.
Tekst skrevet på iMac.
Embossing/stanse-maskin: Cuttlebug.
