Easter Card

The theme for day 5 over at Beccy's Holiday Card Challenge is "Bird or Animal".

 The Easter greeting (Norwegian) is written on computer.

Christmas Card, Ellie With Santa's Hat

As I saw Beccy's card for Day 5: E,

I got this idea to use the Ellie image for a Christmas card.

So here it is, Ellie with Santa's hat.

I used:

White card stock,

Cream paper for the mat.

Scrap papers.

Embossing folder: Darice.

Image: Beccy (Ellie with daisy).

I painted Santa's hat on Ellie's had,

used Tombow.

The white edge of the hat I made on another paper,

fussy cut it and glued it to the hat.

Nuvo Stone drops on the white parts of the hat.

To hide the daisy, I glued two holly leaves on the flower.

Holly die: Papirdesign.

Snowflake punch: Marvy Ushida. Nuvo Stone Drops.

(After the card was finished,

I saw I should not have placed the snowflakes on it.

Too late to remove them now.)

Red and green pens.

Things That Make You Feel Happy

As I bought the digi set "Smooth Seas" from Beccy,

I thought I could use this wonderful sentiment

also for other cards then "sea cards".

Knitting makes me happy,

and I know that also other of my friends feel that happiness

with yarn and knitting needles.

So here is my last card,

a little special, perhaps.
And of course it was not easy to knit with toothpicks!!!

White card stock;

Embossing folder: Cuttlebug;

The blue background for the image is painted

with Tombow water colour.

Tool: Cuttlebug.
