Good morning, Maja Friends, welcome to the blog today 🙂

When the days are still dull and short there’s no better remedy than some colour therapy! 🙂 And so I returned to the bright and cheerful Summertime collection and created two cards. The first one is in red tones:

I layered and distressed some papers. Then I added a couple of paper straws as the background for my embellishments:

I added roses that correspond to the ones in the background and a cute heart frame:

I completed the design with some glistening gem stones:

And then I thought of fans of blue 😉 And made this card in a similar way:

Again, I layered papers and added some paper straws:

There’s an ornate frame too, inside which I placed a butterfly button:

The flower cluster in matching colours and beautiful lace complete the whole:

Here are the papers I used:

 

Other: art clay, gold paint: Martha Stewart; flowers: Wild Orchid Crafts; button: Lemoncraft; molds, paper straws, lace – my stash.

 

And which one do you like more?

See you soon!
