Identical papers – two cards

1 April, 2015 - Cards, Life by the Sea

Good morning Maja friends! Heidi here today blogging two cards made with identical papers from the “Life by the Sea” collection.

I have made one masculine card and one that’s made in feminine style.

Together with the papers I have used cheese cloth, a piece of a metal wire and buttons and text stickers.

The picture I have found on the internet.

To make this card I have used different kind of dies, a doily, trim, lace and flowers.

Have you started your Easter holiday? I have, and it’s a great feeling! I wish you all a great Easter!

Good morning Maja friends! Are you all doing fine?

It’s Heidi here today and I have made a card with my favourite colours; blue and brown using “Vintage Autumn Basics No. XV”.

Together with Maja paper I have used some cool vintagestuff to make this card. In the background you see a piece of an old bookpage and an old postcard. I have also used vintage tulle and lace together with a new doily, pearlstring, tags and flowers.

Everything is tied together in layers. To make the shape of the papers I have useddies and I have distressed the edges of the papers with Distress Ink “Walnut stain” and blue and white paining.

Wish you all a lovely day! Enjoy the spring!

Good morning Maja friends! It’s Heidi blogging a mixed media card today. I have actually used Christmas paper for this card, but together with turquoise and white embellishments it makes a great birthday card.

I have added white and turquoise acrylic paint to the papers and I have drawn around the edges with white and black gel pens.

The chipboard I have painted white and I have added some turquoise glitter glue on the small flowers and the bling swirl.

The text is rub-on from Staz.

Good morning Maja friends! Today it’s me Heidi blogging a Valentine card made of a paperbag.

The paper bag I have used is rather large and it’s intended to use to garbage. I have painted it with white Gesso and the script is made by a stencil and black painting.
