Suger-anniversary

Wedding anniversaries are called different things depending on how long you have been married. When you celebrate beeing married for 6 years it´s suger-anniversary :-) My collegue wanted me to make a card for her husband for this occasion.
I made a shakercard and the sentiment says " You are my piece of candy in life ".
The sentiment is from K-designs.


I stamped wraped candy in different colours around the sentiment saying suger-wedding (anniversary).


Happy suger-anniversary Evelina and Erik!!

Coltsfoot

School and preschool is finishing for the summer this week and the children will enjoy a long summerholiday. A colleague asked me to do a card for her daughters preschool-teatcher. The importent part of the card was that it should have a coltsfoot ( tussilago) on it as that was the name on the ward at the preschool.
I found a nice free picture of coltsfoot on the internet and printed it on watercolour paper. I then inked the backround with distress ink before stamping the word thanks! (Tack) and adding twine. I mounted it on a black mat to make the image pop more against the yellow backround. It turned out to be a pretty and sunny card I think. I hope the teatcher likes it :-)

Wedding cards

Last saturday was a very popular day for weddings here in Sweden. I know four couples who got married that day. I made wedding cards for two of those couples.
The first one was for a collegue at work and we bought a present from all of us at work and I made the card. The theme of the wedding was green and gold so I decided to stick to those colours in my card. I used a new fold which was abit tricky but I liked the result. I think it was very pretty.




The second card was for a weeding where I know both the bride and the groom. We are leaders together at a youth camp in the summers. All of the leaders from the camp wanted to congratulate them so I was asked to make a card. I thought it would be nice with a box-card with photos of them from the camp inside. I also used some lyrics from a song that we sing at the camp to make it even more personal. I think it turned out really pretty and I hope they like it.
