So's arts and crafts

Hello, I know that Valentine's day is long passed, but I finally had an idea on how to use some little hearts I cut with some die cuts from Sizzix, just to see how they look like. The burgundy heart is made from Core'dinations cardstock . This type of cardstock is layered, so, when sanding it, the white layer from underneath comes out, creating a great effect especially on embossed elements.

Hello, Here's a new vintage Valentine's day card: It's pink, with flowers and little hearts... the only thing missing is a box of chocolates... Am I right? And because I make paper stuff...:)) it should be a box of paper pralines... Enjoy!

Hello all, Here's a red and white card to go with the little gift box from a previous post. I had some red and white checkered paper left from the box, and since no piece of paper, no matter how small, should be thrown away...:) I made this card thinking of the spring to come. It will be part of the gift for my best friend's birthday... so now I only have to find the actual gift! :) Card size: 11x16 cm

Hello, As this is my first post this year, I would like to wish you all Happy New Year! and lots of new creative ideas...:) These days I finally found the time to try some of the projects from  Score, Fold, Create , a book by Dianna Crick, Penny Wessenauer and their friends. Today I shall show you my version of what in the book is called "Card & Gift Box in one". As Valentine's day is right around the corner, I made it red and white. First I made the sleeve. After finishing the actual box, I decided to attach it to the sleeve with some double sided tape. As a result, I've been able to use part of the sleeve as a lid for the box. I kept the last part of the sleeve for the sentiment...there is a red rectangle on which you can write a few words. In the book, the sleeve becomes the card...next time I shall try this version too.
