Lunagirl - Goddess

A new week a new challenge over at Lunagirl Moonbeams: Goddess with endless possibilities to celebrate the goddess in us and in others (lol). To create my tag I used some left-over inky background (various distress inks) on watercolour paper which I stamped with a musical note stamp (Impression Obsession) and distress ink 'Peeled Paint'

 

To adorn the tag I chose one of Lunagirl Moonbeams beautiful goddess image from her Goddess collage sheet, slightly distressed the edges around the image

and embellished it with ribbon, lace, half-pearls, a button and little fabric flowers.

Please do pop over to Lunagirl Moonbeams blog to see all the fabulous projects from the DT and hopefully to join in the fun! Petra.

Birthday Wishes

... for a wonderful friend and amazing crafter Lucy .... although I have to admit they were belated. I have to admit further that I had lots of fun to create the birthday card. This is how the card developed:

I sponged some distress ink (Sugar Spun) on a square white card, stamped (Kaisercarft) with Versamark ink a little pattern on the card, covered it with clear embossing powder, embossed it and sponged more ink to the card (distress inks Fired Brick and Victorian Velvet)

 

I plugged in the iron ... not for any clothes .... but to remove the embossing (lol). Then it was about choosing stamps (Stamper Anonymous, Paper Artsy, Waltzing Mouse, Artemio) and embellishments (Washi Tape, Stickles, lacey flowers), Petra.

Postcard Butterflies

This is my postcard for our KindredSpririt postcard swap organised by Jules

Oh, it is so difficult to make a one-layer-card because it is so tempting to add a little bit of bling here, a little button there (lol) ... this time I managed to restrain myself and do without add-ons and it was good fun, I basically inked it all up: the background is brushed distress ink 'Stormy Sky' stencilled with distress ink 'Faded Jeans' using a Tattered Angel stencil. The stamped images are all from various stamp sets from Tim Holtz/Stamper Anonymous. And at last I dabbed a little bit of various acrylic inks around the corners. 

The postcard will be posted tomorrow and I hope the recipient likes it, Petra.
