Get well

Today I like to share a card I made for TWO challenges! I never did this before, but now I gave it a try. For this card I used the sketch from the "CAS(e) this SKETCH" blog, and the colors from "CAS-ual FRIDAYS" blog.
I think I pretty succeed in it...

Roses

Today I like to share two cards with roses I made for church. These cards are big, so I made a photo of the front panel.


I like the roses wich are a stamp by Hero Arts. the postcard stamp is also by Hero Arts. I stamped a zigzag on it.


These roses I adore! And I imagine there's a "loveletter" behind it. It is a stamp by Unity.
And now I like to show some roses we recently bought.











They have just the colors I like.
Hope you liked your visit today!

Tuesday Trigger

Today I made a card for the "Tuesday Trigger" challenge on Moxie Fab World blog. As soon as I saw the inspirational foto, I knew that I would make a card.
Love the blue white combo. Made me thinking of the sea, a summer vacation at the beach.
Here is the inspirational photo.


And here is the place where you can read all about it:

Triangles

Last week I was playing with the Hero Arts/Studio Callico stampset: "Hooray".
This stampset has some fun banners, to make festive cards. But the banners can also be used in another way. That you can see here.


Than I tried a more graffic card. But I am not good in such cards so I was struggling to get it to a good result. And than I read an article in a magazine about combining different styles. Thats what I can do, I thought, so I added a flower and a butterfly. And thats what you can see here.


Hope to be back later this week to show two other cards with triangles.
I will insert these cards in a Challenge at Moxie Fab World: The Trendy Triangles Challenge.

Buttons

I saw that this weeks Challenge at CAS-ual Fridays is to make a card with buttons. You can read all about it here:
http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.nl/
And than I got this idea, to make a jar with buttons. I had to think of that box with old buttons I have, and I mean very old. My children played with it when they were much younger.


Now, these blue buttons are not that old! They are from V&D, a dutch store. And the orange button is Hero Arts from some years ago. It has the same look as the blue ones.
The jar is a stamp by Hero Arts and the sentiment is from a stampset by Simon Says Stamp.
My favorite color is orange, thats why :)
Thank you for visiting my blog.

More inspiration

As I promised, I like to show you some more inspirational photo's from our journey to Italy.
First up some houses at lake Garda. The houses there are beautiful decorated. For example with painted borders like you can see here.





And I really love the flowers on the balcony's as you can see here.


And finally for today some "art" I found on the streets of Bezecca, at Lago di Ledro.


Isn't it fun!
