Mama Said...

Hello and a wonderful day. Well... as you know i am on vacation and now even when i am writing this post.. this card is already 2 weeks old lol.. now that i look at the picture i feel it is kind of empty at the bottom part. However i kind of liked to just play a bit with the ribbons and give the card that frilly feel. On the picture itself it does not show but the pink CS is textured and it does show nicely in real. I like the layout and definitely will try that one again.

Stamps: by Sugar Nellie, Sentiment: Amuse
Papers: Basic Grey Porcelain and Stampin up
Embellishments: Stampin up ribbons and Prima Marketing.
Thanks for swinging by today
hugs
Claudia

Just Because

Hello, welcome to my blog. This card was made using the great sketch on the Friday Sketcher blog provided by Heidi. This card is going to be sent to Magnolia Sweden, as part of my DT cards with the new Summer 2009 stamps.
Stamps: Tilda from the new Summer 2009 kit, Sentiment: Papertrey Ink, Papers: Basic Grey Lemonade were a gift from my friend Carole , Lemonade and the "boy" like line June Bug are in stock over at 7kids College Fund as well.
Embellishments: Stampin up (ribbons), Hero Arts (blue pearl stickers)
This stamp arrived unmounted, so i have used some EZ mount - the sentiment that is in the kit i have mounted on thin EZ mount so it will not "wiggle" and give me a nice impression.
I was able between the preparations for the visit of my family (Today until Sunday) to figure some things for my blog out while iam gone. Please check this Sunday if you have won the blog candy i was talking about this Monday :-). If you are the winner. During the month of July i am going to have several candies up. So, if you are a regular reader of my blog you do have lots of chances to win something as a little thank you from me and the Design Teams iam designing for!
This posting is scheduled, iam on vacation until August 01.
