Lovely As A Rose Challenge

Tuesday Triggerhttp://www.moxiefabworld.com/2010/04/tuesday-trigger-lovely-as-rose.html I kept the basic color scheme the same. I used a piece of clear vinyl over the oval to simulate the glass vase. Rounding the corners of the card and green paper mirror the shape of the vase. I used lace for the flowers and paper pieced the leaves.
This is my first attempt for the Lovely as a Rose challenge. Basic shape of the vase it the same. I used a rub on for the rose and flowers. I added a litte vintage feel with the sheet music, and some greenery in the background.

This one's just a bonus. Same basic colors and shape. A little vinyl scallop sewn on and a little extra color added.


Hello Color!

Yep, that's a tag off some clothing. Embellished with paper and rub-ons of course!





Old sheet music, bits of lace, paper piecing, rub-ons and stickers and ink, oh my!



Paper Pieced Birds




Some of my favorite cards to make this year! These cards came together so well and were great fun to make.

Don't know why this one won't post right! Oh well, enjoy it anyway.


These cards were really fun to make!


Springtime Cards







Swedish Bookmarks

My Swedish inspired bookmarks. These are all hand-drawn and painted on tea dyed watercolor paper, with machine stitching around the edges and mounted on cardstock.

God Jul Cards


Here are my Swedish Christmas Cards. The Santa Lucia girl is hand drawn and painted. I scanned her into the computer and printed them out to use on cards. The heart and goat are handmade stamps.

Here are some of the cards I made last year with a Swedish theme. Some are hand drawn and painted. Somer are Dala horse stamps that I carved. All were so much fun to make!
