Slimline Card "Daisy" by Alena Christin - Ambassador


Hi everyone,

Today I’m sharing another new digital stamp from the new release.

For this Slimline Card, I used the digital stamp featuring the cute Daisy from the Smiles Collection

You can find Daisy in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

Just like with my previous card, I kept the background simple and pastel-toned because I really wanted to color Daisy in a vibrant yellow-orange. A few hearts and the sentiments round everything off nicely.

Have a wonderful day everyone.

See you soon,

Alena Christin

Slimline Card "Tulipa" by Alena Christin - Ambassador


Hi everyone,

Today I’m sharing a new digital stamp from the latest release available at the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I used the beautiful Tulipa from the Smiles Collection

To let Tulipa really shine, I deliberately kept the background simple. I colored the digital stamp in a lovely shade of purple. I decided to make the sentiments stand out a bit more against the background, though.

I’m curious to hear what you think of the new release and how you like Tulipa in purple.

Have a wonderful day everyone.

See you soon,

Slimline Card "Farlee" by Alena Christin - Ambassador

 


Hi everyone,

Today I’m sharing another creation in red featuring Farlee from the Le Pine Collection, which you can find at the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I just felt compelled to color Farlee in red, just like I did recently with Caroline....I’m sure you remember her.

For the background, I kept things simple with a slightly lighter shade of red, since too much red can easily look overwhelming. That’s why I added a small sentiment and a few red enamel dots to the card.

Doesn't Farlee look fantastic? I’m curious to hear what you think of her.

See you next time!

Slimline Card "Caroline Summer" by Alena Christin - Ambassador


Hi everyone,

It’s August.....peak summer season. Ice cream, the beach, sun and the sea... what more could you ask for this time of year? Caroline Summer from the Le Olivie Collection is all set for the beach, too. Naturally, she has a matching beach bag to go with her outfit. You can find this fantastic digital stamp at the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I lightly blended some red ink for the card's background. This time, I colored the image entirely using various shades of red. I also added a small sentiment and some enamel dots to the card.

Wishing you all wonderful beach weather!

See you later...

Slimline Card "Happy Birthday Lady No. 2" by Alena Christin - Ambassador

 


Hi everyone... things are looking a bit red again today. I’m really loving red at the moment. Do you like red too?

For this project, I used the Happy Birthday Lady No. 2 digital stamp from the Svario Collection.

You can find this sweet Image in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I designed the background to match the coloring—in red, of course! :-) To let the image really stand out, I deliberately kept the background simple, adding only the sentiment and a few enamel dots.

See you next time!

Slimline Card "Princess Snow White" by Alena Christin - Ambassador

 


Hi everyone,

Today I’m venturing into the Gothic style. I’ve colored Snow White here with a bit of a morbid twist ...after all things don't always have to be colorful.

For this Slimline Card I used the Princess Snow White digital stamp from the Le Pine Collection

You can find it in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

Since I love creating backgrounds using Distress Oxides and water, I designed the background in red to match the color of her dress. Add a small sentiment and a few enamel dots and the card is complete.

I’m curious to see what you think of it!

Until next time.....

Slimline Card "Bianca" by Alena Christin - Ambassador

 


Hello lovelies,

here comes a Card with the beautiful Bianca. Since I absolutely love sentiments, I simply had to include a beautiful Hello on this Card. I designed it to coordinate perfectly with the coloring of the Bianca image. I also colored the background of the card using Distress Oxides to match the coloring scheme.

You can find the Digital Stamp Bianca from the Le Olivie Collection in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

Wishing you all a wonderful day!

See you soon,

Alena xoxo

Slimline Card "Teddy and Bunny" by Alena Christin - Ambassador

 


Hello lovelies,

here is a Slimline Sard with Teddy and Bunny. This time, I colored both of them in blue, as I simply find them so adorably cute in that shade.

You can find the Teddy and Bunny from the Almost Cute Collection and you can find it in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop. You’ll find plenty of other sweet little critters there as well!

I colored the background of the Card to match the coloring scheme and this time I opted to use just one large sentiment to serve as an additional eye-catcher.

I wish you all a wonderful time.

Hugs and love

Slimline Cards with "Koala and Hyppo" by Alena Christin - Ambassador

 

Hello everyone,

Today I have two cards for you that are incredibly cute. I used Koala and Hyppo from the Almost Cute Collection.

It was so much fun coloring these two adorable little creatures. To make them stand out more, I deliberately kept the card simple. But the sentiment could be big :-).

Slimline Card "Weed" by Alena Christin - Ambassador


Hello everyone,

Today I have a slightly retro-inspired Slimline Card for you. I used the digital stamp Weed from the Le Pine Collection. You can find this and others in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

This time, I colored the image in retro colors – brown and pink. I used the bokeh technique for the card's background. I think it really brings out the retro style. I created the sentiment myself with my cutting machine, of course, to match the card's style.

Have a wonderful day!

Card "Dino No. 1" by Alena Christin - Ambassador


Hello everyone,

Today's Card is going to be really colorful. This cute little Dinosaur is having a blast. Of course – it's a Birthday Card after all :-)-

For this, I used the Dino No. 1 Digital Stamp from the Crazy Paws Collection. You can find this and other Dinosaurs in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I colored the Dinosaur using the dotting technique, just like the trees. For the background and the ground, I used the bokeh technique. I really like this technique because you can create a blur effect. I matted everything and then die-cut Happy Birthday.

Have a wonderful week, everyone.

See you soon.

Big Card "Mini Cakes No. 2" by Alena Christin - Ambassador


Hello everyone,

Today I have a big card for you. For this, I used the Mini Cakes No. 3 digital stamp from the Eat and Drink Collection, which you can find in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I colored the image in very bright colors. I really love the dotting technique, and acrylic markers are perfect for it.

Since I printed the image quite large, I naturally had to add a big sentiment. I stamped this directly onto the card.

Have a wonderful day!

See you soon,

Slimline Card "Camille" by Alena Christin - Ambassador

 

Hello dear ones,

Today there is another card with sweet Camille.

I love slimline cards and the Digital Stamps are perfect for this because you can customize them according to the size of the card and print them out.

Camille is from the Le Pine Collection and you can find her in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I first wiped the background of the card with Distress Oxides and then brightened it up a bit with a splash stamp. I stamped the sentiments directly onto the card. I colored the image, cut it out and glued it on.

Have a wonderful time everyone.

See you then

Card "Take life Sweetly" by Alena Christin - Ambassador


Hello everyone,

Today I have another sweet card for you... in the truest sense of the word :-). The Take Life Sweetly design from the Eat and Drink Collection is simply perfect for a birthday card... don't you think?

You can find this pretty Digital Stamp in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I kept the background relatively simple. I colored the image and this time cut it out without a white border. I added lots of little dots with acrylic markers. I love acrylic markers because they're perfect for highlights. I stamped the sentiment directly onto the card. A few gems complete the card.

Until next time

Card "Take a Break" by Alena Christin - Ambassador


Hello everyone,

Happy New Year to you all! Let's start with "Take a Break." It's always nice to take time for a cake or tart with a cup of tea or coffee. Even in the new year... or what do you think?

For this card, I used the Take a Break digital stamp from the Eat and Drink Collection. You can find this and many more in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I used a sponged technique for the card's background. I simply love this technique because it makes the background look vibrant while still giving the image plenty of room to breathe. I colored the image, cut it out, and adhered it. I matted the sentiment onto black cardstock and also adhered it to the card.

Have a wonderful day!

See you soon,

Have a wonderful day, and see you next time!

Slimline Card "Happy New Year" by Alena Christin - Ambassador

Today I have a New Year's card for you. I used the adorable Agnes stamp for it. Isn't she lovely?
Perfectly styled to welcome the new year.

Agnes Sofa is from the Le Gine Collection and you can find this digital stamp in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I colored the image, cut it out, and adhered it to the background. I simply blended the background with Distress Oxides. I die-cut the large sentiment in black and adhered it to the card. Of course, a few black enamel dots were a must.

Until next time!
