Birthday Card For Norway

Today it felt good to sit down with my Cuttlebug again after nearly three weeks.
Also yesterday I was crafting, but then I only used the scissors to cut lots of butterflies. 
Today I made a birthday card and used one of the fussy cut butterflies on the card.

Bordkort til konfirmasjonsselskap

Forrige helg ble ett av mine barnebarn konfirmert.
Det var så godt å kunne reise til Norge og få være med på denne flotte dagen sammen med familien min!
Det var første gang vi så hverandre på mer enn to år!
Jeg fikk det ærefulle oppdrag å lage bordkort til festen.
De lagde jeg ferdig før jeg reiste fra Sveits.

Jeg vekslet mellom to blåfarger på kortene.
Konfirmanten spiller gitar, så det var naturlig å bruke motiv med en gitarist på kortene. Motivene er fra fb-gruppen "Digistamp".

For å skille mellom de forskjellige småbordene hvor hver familie hadde ett,
brukte jeg stjerner i ulike farger. Også skriften på navneskiltene fikk tilsvarende farge.
Ovalen med motivet er laget med Spellbinders Oval die,
Stjernene er stanset ut med EK Success stjernepunch.

Her er alle bordkortene samlet før de ble pakket i kofferten.


Music Themed Confirmation Card

I have now been away from crafting for a couple of weeks.
Last weekend we celebrated the confirmation of one of our grandchildren in Norway.
It was so good to be together with my children and grandchildren again for the first time for more than two years!
Unfortunately I forgot to make photos of the card before I left home.
So these ones are not good at all. The colours are much brighter than they look like here.
But I wanted to show how I made this card.

The base of the card is a big envelope.
I covered it with a marbled paper from Sigel.
The music paper on the inside is made by Happiness in Crafting by Gi Kerr.

The dies I used are from:
Spellbinders (Oval and Circle), WeR Memory Keepers (Nesting Cards), Marianne Design (Music Clef and Banner), Memory Box (Party Music), Card Deco Essentials (Square), La-La-Land (Corner).
I also used two star punches from Heyda and EK Success.
The images and sentiments are from the Norwegian fb group "digistamp", and the photo on the front shows my grandson some years ago.

Since my grandson plays the guitar, I let this be the theme of the card.
On the right inside there is a pocket hiding a gift card.






Pink And Purple Spots

I made a CAS greeting card using a Tim Holtz stencil, purple and pink distress inks.
The card is double.
Purple distress ink around the edges.
The greeting in Swiss German is hand written.

 I made this birthday card for a friend of mine. She is a musician, so I wanted to use some of the papers  from "The Magic of Music", designed by Gi Kerr.
Embossing folder: Efco. Spellbinders tag die, Gütermann and EK Success flower punches.
Half pearl, a piece of fabric by the tags.
The two tags are just hanging on the card from a safety pin.
