Sweet little Monkey

This is my second entry to The Paper Shelter's challenge 271 this week. I looked at Pinterest before I did my cards, and found one monkey and one penguin. It's very easy to do this monkey, you'll only need one big circle for the head, two small circles for the ears, one heart for the face, one oval for the mouth and you'll need to paint the mouth on the oval, cut out the eyes and if you like paint them. The little piece that should be the hair on the head I cut out freehanded. I then cut out the sentiment: Grattis that is Swedish for Congratulations. I put on some stars and flatbacks, voila! I got a perfect card for a child. When I send it I will cut out extra pieces for one more monkey and put inside the card, if the child likes to do one more. For background paper I used The Paper Shelter's WinterBreeze, A very useful digital paper that you can print out and use. It come's with six different paper and it's nice both for Christmas cards and Birthday cards. 



Card for children

 I did two cards for children this week. I looked at Pinterest for inspiration and found this little penguin, I thought if I send it to a child I know, I can cut out one extra and send so the child can put it together. I used my ovals and circles for the body and eyes, the heartshaped die for the wings, feet and stomach. The sentiment "God Jul" is Swedish for Merry Christmas. The background paper is from The Paper Shelter's collection "Matching with Halloween". I also diecut some stars to put on the card. I didn't want to put on pearls and stuff if the card goes to a small child that will eat them ... lol ... I'm funny that way always afraid to hurt children.
Well here's my first entre to The Paper Shelter's challenge 271 A card for a Child.

Frost Girl for challenge 270




Frost Girl

My second entre in this weeks challenge at The Paper Shelter is also a Christmas card. For this card I used a scalloped card, blue paper from stash, background paper from BoBunny, the digital stamp TPS Frost Girl from The Paper Shelter, silver snowflake from Tim Holst's die, and the sentiment God Jul. I also used different shades and sizes of blue flatback pearls.




Snowmen for the Challenge 270 at The Paper Shelter

This weeks theme for the challenge is Pearls. I love to decorate my cards with pearls, so I sat down and made 3 cards for the challenge, Christmas cards. Here is the first one, I used TPS Most adorable Snowmen for this one. I colored it with Copics. The poinsettia is from Marianne, I cut it out and sprayed it with white Perfect Pearls. Then I put on some flatback pearls and the sentiment God Jul (Swedish for Merry Christmas ).
