Hope your birthday rocks





Good day

This is a quick post of another teenager card. Though 19 is a bit more difficult, but I find music is an universal theme for any age. I used a Bugaboo image - Johnny Sing. Further I used bits and piece from my stash and a Spellbinder music embossing folder. Image was coloured with Prisma Pencils.

Challenges I'm joining:
The Male Room #161 - Dry embossing
Just us Girls #628 - Red, white & black

Thank you and have a lovely day!
Hugs from Africa!

Things with wings at Creative Moments





 Good day

Hope you had a blessed Easter weekend. We had our children home, so we had some family fun. 

Today I want to share a card I made for Creative Moments' Things with wings challenge that started the 15th of April. I had the sentiment from Mirtillamente - To Dream no1, to play with so I kept it kind of simple with a border die from Marianne Design. I just added an additional dragonfly in the lavender to give it a really spring feeling. The sentiment I printed in green and used some chalk in the background. The pink butterflies are part of the border set. 

Challenges I took inspiration from:
Craft Catz # 591 - April shower of Anything goes
Stick it Down - April Card Sketch
Let's Craft & Create #182 - AG or butterflies
Use your Stuff #446 - Spring / Easter
Mirtillament #8 - Anything goes

Hope you will come and join in our Things with wings or Anything goes at Creative Moments!
Hugs from Africa!

17



 Good day

I got this special request last week for a card with neon colours for a 17 year old girl. I had this image - My Music - from Sheepski design on my table for ages now and it fit a girl of 17. The paper is from my children when they were in the primary school and needed neon papers for a project. I decided to go with the orange and yellow for something different. I used a Nellie Snellen die for the background and some Afrikaans sentiment on the yellow with a 17. I fussy cut the image since the original die size did not fit on the card. Image was coloured with my Prisma pencils.

Challenges I'm joining:
Sheepski Design #61 - Make it cute
Crafty Catz #590 - Anything goes
Polka Doodles - Wk15 - Anything goes

Thank you for your visit and have a lovely day!
Hugs from Africa!

Another boy card




Good day

I played along with a few challenges ending up with another boy card. I just love boys, elf/fairies and green, especially this vibrant yellow green, for me it is a symbol of growth. I used a Marianne's design star emboss folder on the back. Then I used some alcohol inks for the triangle. Coloured this mage, Candy Elf from Alicia Bel with Prisma pencils and fussy cut it and dropped the candy part and add a airplane die to go with my theme for a boy. 

Challenges I took inspiration from:
Can you handle the pressure - Emboss with twist of green
Morgan's Artworld #4 - Anything goes
