I like roses

Hello and thank you for stopping by!!! Today I want to share some other flowers with you that I made after the tutorial of Valita. This Lady has so very many awesome ideas, you should defiently check it out here. I made these roses with my StampinUp owl-punch and I love how they turned out.
I put the white-rosé one on a barette and so you can wear it as accesoir in you hair :)

I also sent one of these on a box to a friend in Australia.

I think they would also look great on a card, will have to try that out soon.
Tell me what you think :)
I hope everyone will have a great week
Happy Crafting!!!!!

I like lilies :)

Hello and thank you for Stopping by!!! Today I want to take a break from showing you cards from my cardset and show you something different. Somewhile ago my friend Cindy showed me the Blog of a super talented Australian Lady named Valita. She showed a way to make beautiful paperlilies that are very 3D and I had to try this out :)
After I made my first Lily
I showed it to a friend and she told me that they are looking like little barettes....and BANG....An Idea was born to make smalller versions of these lilies and to glue them on small barettes from the store.
I made a whole bunch of them and colored them in different colors and sent them out to different parts of the USA and there are some actually on the way to Australia.

I also used them to give them as guest-gift to the friends that came to my B-day-Lunch. Yes, every year at my B-Day-Lunch not only I get presents but my guests get small ones too :)
But these flowers aren´t only wonderful for the hair they also look awesome on cards. I made these two cards for friends that had live in the USA and had their Birthdays a few months ago :)

I think they turned out pretty good, what do you think?
I hope you like the lilies as much as I do :)
I hope you are all having a wonderful week
Happy Crafting

I like my cardset part 6

Hello and thank you for stopping by!!! I hope everyone is having a good saturday so far. The card I want to show you today was also for the cardset I made. This time its an international Birthday card in red. The stamp is from the Birthday set from VivaDecor.I stamped it with red ink on a white paper I colored with red chalk.On the bottom of the card I used a border from the cuttlebug with love embossing folder set. I glued red rhinestones on the middle of the flowers and also put some on the upper corners and on both ends of the red ribbon I tied with a knot.Feel free to comment and to tell me what you think?
I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend
I hope you like the card and HAPPY CRAFTING :)

I like my cardset part 5

Hello and thank you for stopping by!!! A new day and another card of the cardset I made, that I want to show you. Today´s card is a very simple wedding card. The only technique I used on this card was embossing with my cuttlebug. I used golden vellum paper for the background and embossed it with the textile cuttlebug folder. I diecut out te ornament in the middle and embossed it with one of the wedding mini folders. The last piece is the creme colored stripe I embossed with the with love border folder. I used border line stickers to frame the embossed background.I hope everyone will have a wonderful weekend.
I hope you like the card and HAPPY CRAFTING :)

I used a 3D-Image from a 3D-Special Toread book from Studio Light.the image is layered on a piece of orange cardstock and popped up on foam pads.I love this little toread elves :) I stamped the background with my Embossing stamp pad and let it dry a little before i colored it with my orange chalk.
