Happy Birthday card

Happy Monday my friends :-) Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

Just a quick post to share a card I made over a week ago, I'm making cards to have ready for whatever moments :-)

 White cardstock for my base and the beautiful designer paper is Kaisercraft Lilac Avenue collection (love), I used EK Success border punch to give that pretty deep scallop edge. Also, on the side of the white cardstosck I used another EK Success punch, so pretty! I made another fabric flower using Sizzix Layers #5 die.
 


I love all the purple and lilac on this card :-0

Black-n-White Box

Hi everyone :-) I'm so happy today because today I feel normal YAY! I was sick for the past 7days... a week! Allergies, then a bad side effect from medications etc etc etc. So I woke up this morning and was feeling normal for the whole day YAY :-) The things we take for GRANTED! I thank God! 

So right before I got sick I altered a little wooden box by using gesso and white acrylic paint, then using my Music notes stamp and black Stazon Ink I created my background if you will :-) Decorate with pearls, crochet trim and Prima bling.




 On top is my handmade fabric flower (cotton duck canvas stamp w/music notes and Stazon, Sizzix flower Layers #5 die).

Thanks everyone for stopping by and leaving your lovely comments :-)

Wedding Keepsake box

Hello my friends :-)
When I am not creating with papers I like to play with canvas and burlap, also I love to make 3D projects. So here is a wooden box I altered with canvas layered with a wide lace for the top lid and for the sides, canvas and some pretty crochet trim. To embellish it, I die cut a Sizzix Crown from cereal box layered with the canvas and lace, added some flat back pearl beads to it as well as organza flowers and my handmade polymer clay heart and rose. 
 
I think this would make a lovely Wedding Keepsake Box :-)

*Know how: I adhere the canvas using Beacon Fabri-Tac glue.

Thank you so much for stopping by :-)
