Party all night

Hi! Today I'm showing you a card I made a while ago, but didn't put it on my blog yet.
Had my beautifull Damaske papers still lying at my desk and this image all coloured up. I got a whole new range of pretty flowers at the hobby fair, so it was the perfect occasion to try them out.
Hope you like my card.

Card recipe
Stamp ~ Whiff of Joy
Colour medium ~ Derwent pencils
Flowers ~ From my stash
Punches ~ Butterfly punch (Martha Stewart) and small butterfly punch (Pipoos)
Extra ~ Pearls, brads, Stickles and a Perfect Pearls

Someone I know asked me if I could make a noteholder for her with this particular image. This is what I came up with.
Some of my Damaske papers, a Whiff of Joy stamp and some lovely swirls.
Topped off with Stickles, gems, pearls and butterflies.
I hope you like it.

Oh dear

I've been such a bad blogger lately. LOL.
That doesn't mean I haven't been busy.

It was my birthday last saturday and a collegue of mine is also a crafter. Not in the card-making business, but in the cake-making business.
I asked if she could create a cake for me. I told her I was a huge fan of pink and butterflies.
This is the creation she made. Isn't it the most beautifull cake you've ever seen?
I instantly fell in love with it!



As a thank you I made a notecard holder. And this is how it turned out...

I've used a 'Whiff of Joy'-image and my beautifull Damaske papers.
I used my Martha Stewart Punch, some flowers, pearls and Stickles to top it of.

Card recipe:

Stamp: Whiff of Joy
Colour medium: Derwent Pencils
Papers: The Best of Damaske
Flowers: ?
Extra: note holder, pearls, Stickles and gems
Punch: Butterfly punch, Martha Stewart (Doily Hearts)

Just a note

I just HAD to make a note holder with my gorgeous paper, that are now my favourites. Could make a 1000 cards only using my Damask papers LOL.
I thought the stamp was just perfect for doing this. Had the thought of 'going out' (in this case for a coffee) in my mind and well... I just love this stamp. Very fun to colour too.
Used my new swirl stamps on the edges of the stamped image, coloured with my Derwent pencils (falling in love again with my pencils) and no use of flowers. I ADORE my MS butterfly stamp and want to use it on every card now!! Me and butterflies...
Some pearls and gems, distressing the edges and I have a finished note holder.

Card recipe:
Stamp ~ Whiff of Joy / Willow with Coffee and euhm... some swirl stamps
Colour medium ~ Derwent pencils / Colourless terpentine / white gel pen
Punches ~ MS large butterfly / small butterfly punch
Stickles and stuff ~ Frosted Lace / Liquid Pearls
Extra ~ Pearls / gems / sticky notes / distressing tool
Paper ~MME / The best of Damask

A little bit of magic might help...

Been really enjoying scrapping again, and completely now I've FINALLY found the papers I've always wanted to work with.
Too bad I have to go back to work soon. Oh well, can't have holidays all year round can I?
Been preparing my classroom too and I am so eager to see the new kids faces again :)

Back to the card... Sorry about the quality, I photographed it under my window where a lot of light came through.
I used another Whiff of Joy image with a text from the Sentiment Collection, that fits this stamp perfect.
Used my fab MS punches again, Stickled a little bit, added some pearls, distressed the edges and my card was born.
Thought it would be fun if it looked as if she had pearls on her, so used my Liquid Pearls, which I think I'm becoming very good at! (If I say so myself :))

Card recipe:
Stamp ~ Whiff of Joy
Colour Medium ~ Derwent pencils, Distress ink
Flowers ~ from my stash, don't know what brand they are
Punches ~ MS / Doily hearts / Large butterfly punch
Extra ~ Pearls, liquid pearls

A little blogcandy

MY FIRST BLOGCANDY!!!

I've been blogging for a while now (over two years now!! Amazing) I decided to celebrate a bit.
The school will be starting again soon and I know a lot of you will have some spare time to create because the kiddies are off to school again, so good reason to do this with a little extra, don't ya reckon?

What's in it?

- A little bit of bits and bobs, like:
* A stamp
* Some punched out butterflies with my new Martha Stewart punch
* Some flowers and rose buds
* A lot of ready-made stamped image, which includes a whole lot of stamps from Whiff of Joy
* Some ribbon
And... What's in the white box you wonder? It's a SURPRISE!! But those who know me, know what kind of addict I am and there's a little hint there... Just look closely to what's in the neighbourhood and you will have your clue :)

So... What do you have to do?

1. Become a FOLLOWER of my blog (because you really like my creations and not only my candy). Besides, this is easier if you want to find out if you have been the lucky winner.
2. SPREAD THE WORD, posting this picture in your sidebar leading people towards this post.
3. LEAVE A COMMENT under this post.

That's it! Easy, isn't it?

EVERYONE CAN ENTER and I WILL SHIP WORLDWIDE!

Oh... And a little extra. With every 50 followers I reach, I will add another extra. So spread the word! :)

+++ This candy will close September, 10 +++
