Vintage card

Hello!
It's been a while since I posted here. Way to long!!
After winning some candy (yayy!!) I got lost in time somehow.
Thank you for the comments you left for me to read, love them!
So, on to the card I want to show you.
The papers (I used 3 different paper pads) and dies are Marianne Design.
Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, where else :)?
Here is the inside: don't know yet what sentiment I'm going to use, so left it blank.
The border is a punch from Martha Stewart.
Thank you for dropping by!

Happy Birthday for a 2year old

Hi to all of you in blogland!
This week has brought me lots of luck! First I found out I won a challenge and could go shopping at Heather's Hobbie Haven. I got myself a Doohickey die from Magnolia (the scalloped tag I've been looking at for ages!) AND I've won the Paintbox Poppets CD-Rom at Wendy's blog, which I received yesterday.I took a quick look and it's fabulous!! All these lovely decoupage sheet, sentiments etc. WOW.

Ah well on to my card: I made this cutie for a little lady who turned 2 today. I thought this image would fit perfectly for the occasion, because little girls want to play with grown up clothes and shoes.
The DP is a paper pad  from Papermania (dots), the other DP is from Yasutomo and is called Peony.
I used pearls and flowers from WOC, the image and the sentiment are from LOTV.
I coloured her with Twinkling H2O's, The charms where a gift from Cute Stamps and Cards.
The alphabeth is by Tim Holz: Typeset. The sentiment inside is Marianne Design.
Here is the inside:
This card is in 2 challenges:
Paper Take Weekly: which is Bingo: ribbon, charms (free), punched shapes (leaves behind flowers)
Simon Says Stamp: also a Bingo: flowers, pearls, charms


Thank you for stopping by and leaving me comments, so I can come and visit you.

Roses are red

A warm welcome to my new blog followers! I also would like to thank everyone who left me a comment on my previous post(s). Lovely to see you like my creations :).

I was in a romantic mood when I made this one. Can you tell? All pink and roses.
The Design Paper is a pad called: Pale Pastels by Eline's winter huis. The gorgeous sentiment is also by her hand. The lovely flowers and pearls are from WOC. The lattice corner is a new die by Marianne Design. The leaves are a die also by Marianne D.
Here is a close up:
Here is a shot at the inside. As I don't know yet whom it is for I left it blanc.

On your Birthday

Yes, I am still alive :)! Sorry I didn't post earlier, maybe it is not an excuse but last Friday was my birthday and you know how busy things can be... As I was born on the 13th every once in a while it happens that my birthday is on a Friday. But that doesn't have any effect on me because I was born on a Sunday, how lucky is that?

I made a card for my Aunt. The little girl is in fact my Aunt! Many years ago *smile*.

The doily, branches and butterflies are dies from Cheery Lynn Designs. The butterfly embossingfolder is from Craft concepts.The brown cardstock is an old Color Core pad named The Chocolate box. After embossing I sanded the butterflies. Flowers and pearls are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the lace was bought on a market.
A closer peek:
The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley.
And here is the inside:
Today my Aunt phoned me and she said thanks for this very special gift.

Thank you for stopping by!
