Valentine penguins - I miss you!

Hi everyone, I am Larissa from Car-d-elicious and today I am posting a new card. :)

This time I made a card with the stampset Valentine penguins from Gerda Steiner designs. Although this is a valentines stampset, you can use the images really well on a card to let someone know you miss them. I have coloured the image with my Polychromos pencils and then I have fussy cut the image. With the Crea-nest-lies XXL 44 from Crealies I have die-cut a rectangle from white cardstock. With Charming pink Versafine clair ink and a selfmade heartsstencil I made a heart background on it. I have cut a strip from black cardstock and adhered it on the rectangle. With the Ik mis je thinlits 115666/2120 from Sizzix I have de cut the sentiment (I miss you) from white cardstock and then I adhered it on the black strip. I added the image with foamtape on the card. I decorated the card with black hotfix gems.

Hi there,

it's Tanja here again. Did you see the adorable new Gerda Steiner Designs Cat in Bookshelf stamp set? This is my first creation using this set:

• color some of the images from the Gerda Steiner Designs Cat in Bookshelf set with Faber-Castell Polychromos Pencils
• add woodgrain to the shelf with the help of the Hero Arts Designer Woodgrain stamp and Archival Ink Watering Can
• cut out a stitched panel from Gmund Beer Paper Weizen and add a heart border using one of the Elizabeth Craft Designs Valentine's Edges dies
• add a strip of pattierend paper from the Carta Bella Spring Market 6x6 paper pad underneath the heart border

I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,

Hippo in disguise - Happy birthday - Larissa

Hi everyone, I am Larissa from Car-d-elicious.

Today I made a card with the stampset Hippo in disguise from Gerda Steiner designs. This is a really clever designed stampset. You start of with stamping the hippo with the cape and then there are couple of small stamps in the set that you can use to turn your hippo into a superhero or in a dracula. Really awesome! For my card from today I wanted my hippo to be a superhero. I have coloured the image with my Polychromos pencils and the black glaze pen and then I have fussy cut the image. From a piece of white cardstock I have die-cut a rectangle with the Crea-nest-lies XXL 52 from Crealies and then I have die-cut a circle out of the rectangle with the Crea-nest-lies XXL 49 from Crealies. I have die-cut a larger rectangle from purple design paper from the Gingham linen rainbow petite prints from Doodlebug with the Crea-nest-lies XXL 44 from Crealies. I adhered the white rectangle on top of the purple design paper with foamtape and then I adhered them both on a white card. I added the image with foamtape on the card. From yellow cardstock I have die-cut a couple of stars with the Lots of stars creative cuts from Mama elephant and I placed those on the card. The sentiment is from the set Happy hoppy from Gerda Steiner designs.
