Hello, Maja Fans, welcome to the blog ๐Ÿ™‚

I’m happy you’ve found some time to visit us and – hopefully – get inspired ๐Ÿ™‚ I have two girly cards to share today.

I love colouring stamped images. Perhaps it’s not as trendy as mandala colouring that seems to have captured the world ๐Ÿ˜‰ but it’s still relaxing, though it does take some time and therefore I can’t do it as often as I’d like to. But recently I bought cute stamps for colouring and just couldn’t resist! And here are the cards I made:

I used small paper pads for both cards so that designs are well visible. The first card is based upon the Vintage Baby collection. But this time I chose the blue-brown combo usually associated with boy themes ๐Ÿ˜‰

The image I chose for the card features a teddy bear, so the teddy pattern was just the perfect choice ๐Ÿ™‚

I chose a couple of flowers and a button to decorate the card:

I most often colour my stamped images with Distress inks and then accent them with glitter or liquid pearls. Here I used glitter for some bling ๐Ÿ™‚

The other card adds some red accents as I used the Home for the Holidays collection ๐Ÿ™‚

To make the image pop out I used plaid patterns for the background:

The decorative elements here include birdswing charm and plaid ribbon with some sweet little flowers:

To imitate light glow, I use white gel pen, like here on the apple:

I hope some girl would be happy to receive a card with the cute image in it ๐Ÿ™‚

 

Supplies:

See you soon ๐Ÿ™‚
