Birthday Bag with Tag and a card

Hello! It’s Wednesday and time for a Heartfelt Creations post. I have two projects to share, a paper bag with tag and a card.

First up the bag – I bought a stack of white sturdy paper bags a while back, and now I can’t stop playing with them. I’ve made a couple of birthday bags for the upcoming birthdays. Here is one of them. The tag is adhered with a cloth pin, so that the recipient can save the tag if he wants to (some save everything, some don't…)

I played around with the Distress crackle paint. Love that stuff!

And here is the card. I got me some new spellbinders the other week, and they team up beautifully with the Balmy Breeze Collection.

Happy Saturday!

I woke up to two inches snow and I must say it wasn’t what I needed. But it will be gone by tomorrow and we’ve been promised some spring next week. Can’t WAIT!

I spent the morning in my craft room, making a couple of cards. For the first one I was totally inspired by THIS card by amazing Amy and it was done in no time. And best part – I like it. A lot!

Hello Friend_redigerad-1

I stamped the chevron (from Cocoa Daisy) with Scrap Happy Glue and rubbed in some glitter so this is another sparkling card made for a sparkling woman. Love this SRM sticker sentiment.

I made it for a couple of challenges:

Fusion#2, Lesley’s Challenge

CAS-ual Fridays going glitter crazy.

Next up is a Hello card, where I play with my latest buy, Picket Fence Distress Crackle Paint. Love this stuff. Everything white on this card is covered…

Hello blue bird

The patterned paper and stamps are from Heartfelt Creations.

I did this one for Cute Card Thursday’s Butterfly Kisses challenge.

Have a fab day!

Birthday card

Hi! Happy Tuesday!

My husband turns 50 on Monday so a lot of preparations are going on. I did his card tonight when he and the boy went to a hockey game.

I used my favorite color combo – brown and blue(ish),  from an OLD (hehee) favorite MME paper pad.

I was inspired by this week’s fabbie sketch from Mojo Monday.

I’ll be back tomorrow with my Heartfelt Creations post. I went a bit shabby chic crazy, so a warning is in place…

Thanks for stopping by!

Merci

Hi! Hope you had a great weekend and a lovely Easter celebration. We have had some family time and it’s been really nice. I also found some time to craft this morning. Yay for me! :)

I tried a new technique (for me) – stamping with glue and adding glitter. This baby shimmers. Like crazy! Good thing it’s going to a lady who loves her bling! :)

merci

We have wonderful weather with a clear blue sky and a sun so bright I’d like to wear shades indoors. I love it, but it sure makes the photographing part a tad bit difficult….

merci 2

All the stamps are from Heartfelt Creations: Burlap Background and Tattered Blossoms. The merci is a SRM sticker.

I used this fabbie sketch from Sketch Saturday.
