You are not old

Hi there.. Lovely to see you.

My mom was one of those 9 that we celebrated with round number this summer. She turned 70 last January.
And for her I tried out a little different color for me. Not often I use yellow in my cards, it is a bit out of my style. Still I think it turned out nice.

"You are not old, you have only been young a little longer than the most"

Stamps from Magnolia - Matryoshka Tilda from Little circus Moscow collection 2013 and Flower Tilda with bowknot from Animal of the Year collection 2014

Colored with copic

Anders

Anders is a gorgeous boy in my family with the love for dinosaurs, and who else than

Edwin with with Teo the dragon will fill that place.

I just love that stamp and tried to make my card a bit jungel inspired. The bumble bee is something I had in my stash box for years, but never found the right time to use.

Here I have used several different dies, and not everyone I have the name on unfortunatly. Spellbinders, Magnolia and some others. The swirl leaves and flag banner is new, along with the Edwin stamp that I have never used before.
I added also some leftover pieces from a flowergrid in brown, as I was thinking this looked like wooden planks.
All the text is computer generated. A funny poem is also included.

Stamp is coloured with copics.

Happy Birthday Anders !

Happy new year

I would like to wish everyone a great new year with all that comes with it.
A new year with only new pages to write. Things to deside, and things to change.
And all for the best I hope.

The first card of 2015 is one I made for one of the little darlings in my family.
Little Halvor was 2 years yesterday, and I sended this card for him.

I had to try another new model for my cards, and this folding was something I found on the blog rounds that I enjoy for inspiration.

I used the Magnolia stamp - Edwin with Tin Tin the dog from Animal of the year collection 2014 - in the front and an old Edwin stamp inside, with a baloon stamp in his hand.
Coloured with copics.

I used several dies from different places, not sure of all of them. Spellbinders, Magnolia doohickey club + +

Sentiment and text is computer generated,
the flowers from Wild Orchid crafts and
designpaper from Pion and some from my scrapbox.

With this card I play along with these challenges:
