Fairy Cookies & Tea

 

Det har ikke vært så mange bloggposter fra meg i sommer.. Slitt litt vel mye med helsa, så det har sjeldent vært tid for kreativitet på scrapperommet. Har isteden fått ryddet litt opp på pc'n, og det er sååå mye rot i mappene mine der! 
Fant faktisk flere kort som bare var tatt bilder av og ikke lagt ut på bloggen, og jeg legger for det meste ut alt jeg lager :)

Mine to sommerlige kort har begge fått hovedmotiv fra The Paper Shelter. Vanligvis foretrekker jeg å fargelegge dem selv, men TPS har allerede fargelagt disse perfekt ♥ Digistemplene kommer både i lineart og ferdig fargelagte motiver. Tilogmed digitale ark eller ferdig komponert følger med på de aller fleste, så man kan gjøre det så enkelt man bare vil! Jeg har kun printet ut motivene, og fargekoordinert med ark fra Panduro. Liker at det går en 'rød tråd' gjennom alt jeg lager, og håper de som mottar kortene setter pris på det :)

There has not been many blogposts from me over the summer as my health has not been very good of late. Not much craftiness going on in my scraproom.. But instead I've been able to do some much needed re-organizing and cleaning up in my computer folders. Wich is where I found several un-edited cards I had not blogged yet. And I blog pretty much all the things I create, so here are two summery cards with motifs from The Paper Shelter.

They have lots and lots of sweet digistamp sets ~ with both linearts and colored images. and although I prefer to do the coloring myself, TPS motifs are already so perfectly colored ♥
I love to make the kind of cards where there is a theme all the way, inside and out, even the back. And I like to think the recipients do appriciate the extra effort :)
