Tag Tuesday - Winter Landscape

What a Winter is has been so far, very very wet and windy and very warm. So warm that the birds have already started to twitter in the morning and all the Spring bulbs decided it is time to show their first leaves! Oh dear ....
This is the first tag I created for Tag Tuesday: Winter Landscape this year using one of my photos from last year's winter as focal point. I just love the texture of the snow crystals and the way they sit on the seed head

The tag is cut from Karftcard, dry-embossed and slightly inked. the photo is layered on musical note paper (Kaisercraft) and BazillBasics card. To adorn the tag I added some twine, vellum snowflake and a little wooden heart.

Stay safe and warm wherever you are, Petra.

B for Baby

Hope you had a wonderful first day in the new decade. Do you have any New Year resolutions, crafty ones? Well, normally I try not to because after a while I realise that it seems to disappear in non-being (lol). But this year my crafty New Year's resolutions is to create pieces from time to time which I feel quite uncomfortable with ... the style, the theme, the colour, the technique, the shape. I started straight away today with a Baby girl card ... I don't do baby cards very often especially the ones of the pink variety. Cards still feel awkward at times and I am not so sure about the Shabby Chic style. Luckily I found a really appealing sketch for the card layout over at s'Sketches ... it is their bonus sketch ... and combined it with the Shabby Tearoom colours

Supplies:

paper - plain white card, Basic Grey, My Mind's Eye, Kars
stamps - Heyda, Elzybells
ink - Brilliance Ink
flowers - Prima
gem - Kanban
Stickles
ribbons from my stash
Tim Holtz Sizzix Die

I cut the shape of the card with the sizzix die, the patterned papers are sewn together and the edges distressed with chalk. For the image I used an Elzybells stamp and did some paper piecing. The 'B' for baby - my sentiment - is stamped, cut out and glittered. Finally I added some flowers ... yes, I know mayby a couple too many ... but once I started I just couldn't stop .... luckily I ran out of the little ones (lol)
Have a great weekend with lots of crafting, Petra.
