sweet christmas wishes

Thanks to Annemarie from First Hand Emotion I never lose my desire to order the great stuff from Stampin Up! :D And so these heart shaped treat cups travelled all the way to my home and had to be used immediately.

While I visited my mother in Germany she asked me to create a card for a new born baby of her friend's daughter. As she will gift this overall from loud+proud I took the chance to try if Old Olive, Bajabreeze and Crumb Cake would combine well. And what can I say? They combine great!

a very simple ornament card

Two weeks without internet and blogging.. That was tough!! But I went to my mother's house and spent some family time..
Plus I had to make my cards with few equipment, so these christmas cards turned out very simple. But I couldn't resist to try the ornament punch which arrived two days after my arrival.. :)

grief

I don't like occasions like the one this card was made for. After ten years of fighting against cancer my father's best friend's wife passed away last week. And this is the card I'll send to her family.

My goal: create a card without stamping. So I chose this great Christmas DP from My Mind's Eye (Holiday Glitter Book) and a chipboard embellishment from K&Company (Christmas Cheer Chipbox). I like it! Do you? ;)

it's a wonderful time of year

It was time to give the punch a little time to rest, so I thought why not use my Cuttlebug?
Plus the stamp set from HeroArts has never been used before though I bought it long, long time ago. ;)

hello in the heart

You can tell that I love this punch, huh? :D
And I always wanted to create a card in which I can use this sweet tiny hello-heart.
Well, I have to hurry, my daughter is waking up.
Have a nice day!

a little birdie told me..

My neighbour asked me to create little notes for any occasion. So I took my beloved Two Step Bird Punch and started with these four bird notes.

At midnight this card was finished.. It took me quite a while to make it as I had to punch out so many pieces. But finally even my usually very silent husband said "Oh, that looks nice!". I used the Two Step Bird Punch for the leaves and the Window Punch for the fence. The pumpkins were cut out with my sissors as I still don't have the Oval Punch..

owly birthday

Two days ago I had to try my freshly arrived Stampin Spots for the very first time. And i have to admit: I LOVE Perfect Plum! What a great colour!! Definitely this won't be the last time I used it.. :D

joys of the season

Although winter has not arrived yet in Italy I was in the mood of a christmas card this morning. I really like the 3D-effect of the ornaments and I found this could also be nice with orange CS for pumpkins, don't you think?
