Longing for Summer

19 October, 2016 - Cards, Summertime

Hi there! I am currently working with the new beautiful collection “I wish“, but unfortunately I have not finished a card yet… But I would like to share this card instead, and I promise a Christmassy card next time 😉 Here I have used the gorgeous collection Summertime, and some of the blue colours.

I will give you the list of the papers used in the end of this post.

I have coloured up an Magnolia image (Tilda in the Wind from the Sea Side Collection 16). I have used Distress Ink for my colouring.

The metal corner is from WOC, and I have coloured it with white Gesso. The white spots are made with Fran-Tage Shabby White.

Bow die from Magnolia. Spots in Tildas hair are liquid pearls.

Beautiful texts on the tags from Stempelglede.

I think the Autumn is cozy, but still miss the Summer. It is so lovely to have a long holiday, and be able to take trips here and there. Be in the sun, and feel the warm breeze.

Here are the beautiful papers used:

: By the sea – Diecuts

: Cute summer dress

: Gives me joy

Thank you so much for visiting the blog today!

Hugs,

Wonderful Day

Goodmorning lovely viewers,

Sunny and warm days are on it’s way as summer soon will land here in Holland! Oh and how I am in need of some sunshine because I have to say I am not such a fan of winter {although the layouts made with winter pictures are wonderful} So for my 8×8 layout I used “Vintage Summer Basics”and one sheet of “Vintage Spring Basics” to get in the mood ;-). As I am also part of the Cheery Lynn Designs DT I am allowed to pick beautiful dies every month and on this layout I used two new ones that I just got last Saturday.

Why a 8×8 layout you may wonder, well that will be because they take less space in my scrap room and they are a little faster to make {little pieces of art I always say like ATC’s} But also because everything I have to make for Cheery Lynn Designs we have to ship to them for trade show’s like CHA and then it will not take up all of their booth space.

On this layout I added a bunch of layers behind the picture and lifted them up with foam tape as I also did for the 1933 sheet from the “Vintage Summer Basics” collection. If you do that you will get more depth on your layouts. What got me inspired to make this layout well I have to say it was this months mood board that went life on the blog last Monday although I already made a layout inspired by the mood board I totally could not help myself and created another one 🙂

Maja Design papers used: 1921 bs, 1923, 1936 bs, 1933, 1933 bs & 2nd of April bs.
