Ration Card + Maja + Pion


Hi there! Heidi here today to inspire you with another vintage card.


This week I have used papers from Maya Design's Sofiero collection together with a vintage photo from Pion Design, lace, cheesecloth, jute fabric, a bark heart and flowers.


Between the cardstock and the pattern paper from Maya Design I have put an authentic, old Norwegian ration card from 2nd World War. 


Wishing you all a sunny and creative weekend!

Friendship

Hi everyone Vicky here with my first inspiration post for Live & Love Crafts & wow I am sooooo nervous. As you know the theme this week is Fran-Tage............yeah I'm sure the girls hated this theme lol. Yeah right I'm sure I heard screams of excitement lol.........
Anyhoo's I have used the uber gorgeous new Stempelglede stamps that Sandy has just added to her store recently............ OMG I sooooooooo love these, I want them all!!
The image is from Stempelglede's stamp set called 'Vintage Garden', sooooo pretty!!
Now its my first time colouring a bird so please be kind lol. I have triple embossed with UTEE powder, cracked it in places.........I dont put mine in the freezer as I've found sometimes pieces can pop out when you crack it & it works just as well even if you dont freeze it ;0)

The gorgeous papers are Pion Studio Of Memories, I love these with the frames as they are perfect for decorating inside of the card. I also stamped the inside of the frame with Stempelglede's 'Just A Note', which is a gorgeous set of sentiment stamps.

Using the same 'Just A Note' stamp set I also made a tag & added shabby seam binding to it. The tag reads 'I Treasure Your Friendship', isn't it gorgeous!!
The small tag I cut from Pion 'Vintage Garden - Tags' 12x12 sheet. I distressed the edges, inked them & added a charm. I also used a small postage rubber stamp & stamped a postage mark onto it ;0)

I've added Shabby Blue Fran-Tage to the wooden bird cage & to the corners of the box. The metal corner I covered with Shabby White Fran-Tage. Also you cannot see it very well but I also stamped the corners of the bottom paper with a stamp from 'Vintage Garden' stamp set as well. Think you can just see the brown ink on the top left hand corner/side lol.

Huge squishy hugs

I Heart You

Hi, Becky here eventually, sorry I'm late. As you know this week the theme for the team is Frantage, I love this stuff.


This cutie is I Heart You, from Saturated Canary and was available with a magazine, I'm afraid I have forgotten the name of it though. I have coloured her with Inktense Pencils. There is some glamour dust on her top, and I've used shabby pink frantage around the image and on the butterfly.


The papers are from Maja Designs Vintage Autumn Basics 6x6 paper pad, the edges have been distressed with a Tim Holtz tool.

Ooops, can you see her Frantage spot, lol.

Hugs,

Becky xx
