CaS op zaterdag 191 / CAS on saterday 191

Vandaag een heerlijk zonnige dag, dus eerst daarvan genoten voor ik vanavond wat tijd in m''n hobbykamertje door heb gebracht...
Today was a sunny day, so I enjoyed that before I spent some time in my craftroom this evening... 


Voor de 1e kaart weer eens met een embossingfolder gewerkt en niet veel op gestempeld, maar ik kon het niet laten om wat schaduw en wat kleur met potlood aan te brengen.
For the first card  I used an embossinngfolder and not much stamping, but I couldn't resist to put some shadow and colour on in with pencils.



Gebruikte materialen:
Used materials:
Stempels: Different Colors
Stans: Poppystamps
Inkt: Memento Dessert sand
Overige: Wit cardstock, Provocraft embossingfolder, gelliplaterestje voor de kat, Caran D'Ache kleurpotloden en wit cardstock



Bij deze 2e kaart heb ik de bloemen gemaakt met een stansenset die ik vorig jaar na de winter al kocht, maar nog steeds niet gebruikt had:
For the 2nd card  made the flowers with a die that I already bought last year after the winter, and still hadn't used:



Gebruikte materialen:
Used materials:
Stempels: Different Colors, Kitty's Craft
Stans: Craftemotions, Xcut
Inkt: Versafine Onyx black, DI Mowed lawn, Squeezed lemenade en Salty ocean

Fijn weekend en creatieve groetjes,
Gerrina

  2. What a pretty card Gerrina, I love the "snowdrops" hope to see mine soon but we've had such a bitter cold winter so far that it probably will be several more weeks.
    Thanks so much for sharing with us at Allsorts challenge!

  3. The embossed tree is very subtle but pretty, and your little cat is a great focus to bring the card to life! Your pretty spring flowers are lovely - you must be tired of winter by now! Here, we are 'over' the heat, and looking forward to slightly cooler days to come.

  5. Beautiful cards, Gerrina. I especially love those gorgeous flowers in your second card. The soft colours are perfect for the die cut and having that pretty watercolour wash in the background makes them pop beautifully. Love the way you've stamped the flowers on the outside of the die-cut circle as well. Having them partially on the card base and partially inside the circle is very effective. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.

  16. Both of your cards are very lovely Gerrina. It's really fun to discover a stamp tool such as the floral die cut in your stash that you haven't used and then discover how wonderful it is. This is such a pretty feminine design and the flowers are very delicate. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
