Get Well Soon


I just got a few days ago my order of some Yummy-for-Your-Tummy stamps that were missing in my collection and i could not resist to add some of the new Magnolia papers as well. Saw too many nice cards made with it so i had to give it a try too


Since the card has not many layers i have just stamped the tea cup once onto Neenah White paper with Memento Ink, cut out with circle Nestabilities. Than stamped the cup again, colored with some grey makers, cut out and added Paper Glaze to it. Than once all dried adhered it with pop up dots over the cup stamped onto the circle. I first wanted to add to the handle of the cup the “get well” sentiment but loved the heart charm better.

Other: Nestabilities:Label , pin, Magnolia flower, lace, Pearl stickers, Fiskars Border punch

Friendship


Hello and a wonderful Sunday. Today i want to show you a gift that i have prepared to give to a dear friend. I had to think and do some research to find something that i believe she does not already have :-) and that's hopefully her taste.On the first picture you can see the ebony finished hardwood box, which i could not resist to give some sparkle with Shimmerz spritz and decorated simply with a silver frame and some letters


Now of course the inside had to be decorated with my Magnolia's :-) i had several images out even the new Christmas ones but i ended up with this lovely die cut irecent paper and layered that one over a sheet of pink patterned paper. From there i knew, which Tilda i wanted to use. I think it is just a nice all year round image, she's hopefully not bored of to see.

Here are some extra pictures - i did not fill up the box entirely to show you how absolutely PERFECT the Shimmerz paints fit into that box. However i could not go to crazy with decorating the inside of the box otherwise it would not close anymore. Oh, and the other day when i got myself some extra paints, i got "Opal" which does not look every exciting on the pictures but oh.. when i used it.. it is very lovely! I think it gives the paper a settled vintage look without overpowering with too much pink. I have mixed this color with Candle light and the result was really pretty as well.
If you like to know where to get this box, please email me i will share the information, i just simply don't want my friend to know how much the box was.
Thank you for visiting me today i appreciate your time.
