Over to my creation. I have decorated a giftbag for a babychristening. As i became a grand aunt to a little baby boy in january, i thought i`d create a gift bag for his christening.

This last weekend i helped my hubby with his stocktaking and i came across these fabulous white giftbags. I imediately saw the potential in these, lol. He works at ARK which is a chain of bookstores here in Norway. So there... i got to give him some advertising too, lol. These bags are about 5,5" x 4,5" and they come in packs of 3pcs at the prize of £1,57 (kr15,-)

Not too long ago Marianne D released these baby themed creatables. I just adore these. They are so beautiful. For this card i have used:

Spring colours at WhoopsiDaisy

Hey my sweet friends!

Time is passing so fast. It is not long till summer is here. Meanwhile i have created a new card for the new challenge over at WhoopsiDaisy. We want you to create something you assosiate with spring colours.

For my card today i have used pale pinkish colours on my papers with hints of green. I realize that it doesn`t show too good on the pic.  To make it pop i have used some sharp yellow seambinding to catch the colour of the balloon on the image. I didn`t actually have yellow seambinding but i used some distress ink (Mustard seed) and some water and got this gorgeous yellow colour. I then added this beautiful vintage button i ordered from Canada a long time ago.

The image i have used is available on sheet #180 and you can find it here in the WhoopsiDaisy digi shop.

The colours i have used are:

Skin:

Vanilla, Saffron, Oatmeal, Tan, Sunkissed pink

Hair:

Sandstone, Mustard, Buttercup

Dress:
