Just Us Girls Challenge No. 17

This week I was again inspired the the JUG Challenge. So I tried the new free Cutesy Cover template from
My Time Made Easy
This time I chose the colors apple green, burgundy and white/vanilla.

So here is my Cutesy Cover.



As I had my sewing machine unpacked because I finished a quilt for my daughter I tried machine stitiching as an embellisment. The top flap and the sides are embroidered with my sewing machine. The butterfly is a die for my cuttlebug!



Hope you like it! Thanks for looking!

Just Us Girls Challenge No. 8

This is my this week's entry for the Just Us Girls Challenge No. 8. I needed a nice wrapping tea lights with a delicious vanilla fragrance. As the lights do already have a gingerbread man on top I repeated this in the complete design of the card.

The blue is definitely not the right color as pre-set in the challenge but this type of blue as cardstock is very difficult to get in Germany. The only blue I can think of is from SU - and unfortunately I run out of it.



So this is my result.



I embossed parts of the card with the polka dots folder of the cuttlebug. The image is from Pink Cat Studio. The gingerbread stamps are from a discount supermarket. But they do not look "cheap" at all!

Thanks for looking!

Christmas Leparello

Update:

I created this card last year - but when I saw the challgene I was just of the opinion - yes that's it!

I have seen this type of card in a maganzine and created my own Christmas Leparello using Itty Bitty Christmas Digi Stamps from Pink Cat Studio.

This is the front page of the card:



The internal view of the card:

I used a lot of glitter, rhinestones, rhinestone stars, snwoflakes, liquide pearls, etc. to decorate the christmas trees.

Booklets for post-its!

Some time ago I saw this type of booklets somewhere in the internet and was thrilled about the idea to have on in the handbag as I am a person who never has a piece of paper at hand when needed.

So I made two. One for my mum and one for me in the matching colors of my favourite handbag.







Originally the designer paper is only black and white. So I could adjust it to the colors I wanted. I also used a lot of glitter to receive an elegant look.
