Kaksi hyvin erilaista korttia / Two Very Different Cards

Heippa ystävät, postaan tässä vain nopsasti pari haasteisiin tekemääni korttia -tiedetään, olen haaste-addikti! Onko ryhmää anonyymeille haaste-addikteille? :) Joka tapauksessa, vaihdan lontoon murteeseen ajan sästämiseksi ja toivotan sinulle mahtavaa viikonloppua. Kiitos kun käväisit!

Hi! I've made maaaany cards this week and it looks like these will be the final two for two different challenges. I have formed an obsession to certain challenges -the ones that I really really like I would not want to miss... I missed last week's challenge at Muse Card Club and I'm happy I now had time to take part again -t's so much fun! This week's muse is Marion Vagg with her colorful card with washi tape. I loved the colors and horizontal stripes but decided to go to for different style, I tried to create a more vintage look. Somebody could say that vintage and bright colors can't go together but I wanted to try anyway! Here's the card:


"Ystävälle" is Finnish language and means "For A Friend". The ballerinas look a bit weird floating there but my original plan, putting flowers in the corner, didn't work any better, I couldn't find flowers that I liked... Well, you can't get it right always can you. :) I'm not super happy with the card but I do like the stripes a lot, thanks Marion for inspiration!

My second card is for Less Is More Challenge, the theme for this week is "Up In The Air". I think the balloon fits to that category... And the bunny looks like he is jumping up to the air as well! I paper pieced the balloon with the same paper that I used for matting. The image is colored with Copics and I also used some white gel pen for the icing of the cake + glitter glue for the cake's wrapping and the flame of the candle.


That's it from me now, I hope you liked these cards, please let me know what you think. Have a fun weekend -I'm off to a skiing weekend at my in-laws. Thanks for popping by!

  8. Two completely different cards with their own special look and charm. The first one has a design fit for using some of those scraps and make them into one fabulous design! Your second one is so cute, with the great clean layout. Well done!

  16. Love both your cards...the Muse inspired one must have taken you ages. I think the bright colours and vintage lace work perfectly together. Love your Copic colouring...wish I could do that!
