Card "Alexia" by Angela - Creative Team

Hi there,

Summer is gone and it's a little chilly now here in the Netherlands. It’s time to swap the shorts and T-shirts for long trousers and jumpers. 

Alexia is ready for the fall and wearing a gorgeous jeans.... so much fun to colour. I coloured with my colouring pencils. Alexia is one of the adorable digis Eve released recently. 

You can find her in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop in the Le Pine Collection. 

I had no designpaper that matched the coloured digi, so I used cardstock and made the background by die cutting circles in matching cardstock. It was fun arranging the circles on the slimline card. I used 3D dots to adhere the image on the card. A 'warm' sentiment completes the card.

Have a lovely day and see you next month.

Card "Cocktails" by Angela - Creative Team

Hi there,

On these hot days, you'll want some cool drinks.

Luckely, the Mirtillamente Craft Shop sells a super cool digital stamp Cocktails from the Eat&Drink Collection. It is a digi with three tasteful cocktails, which also can be used seperately.

I have made three CAS cards with it.

This time I coloured them with aquarel markers. I embossed the white background paper by drawing some lines with my Scroll Pall, adhered the image with 3D dots and finished the card with a sentiment and some half pearls.

Hope you like it.

Have a great day and see you later.

Card "Bloom" by Angela - Creative Team

Hi there,

For this blogpost I made a CAS card with the lovely Bloom from the Nature Collection.

You can find this beauty in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop, among with so many other fantastic digis.

This time I coloured a part of the digi; as always with colouring pencils. After colouring I cut out the digi and stuck it onto the card using 3D dots, so that the coloured flower stands out just a little more.

A sentiment and some half-pearls complete the card.

Have a nice day and hopefully see you next month.

Card "Maleficent" by Angela - Creative Team

Hi there!

Today I have a card for you made with the gorgeous digi Maleficent from the Le Pine Collection, which - together with a lot of other great digis - can be found in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I recently saw the movie with Angelina Jolie as Maleficent. What a great movie!!! Did you know that Angelina's daughter Vivienne plays the role of little Aurora? She was the only child who wasn't afraid of Angelina in her Maleficent-make-up. Several other young girls auditioned, but didn't want to come near Angelina Jolie.

If you see the picture you can imagine why they didn't want to be near her.

Luckely Evelin has drawn Maleficent a lot more friendly 😊.

There are a lot of other fairytale figures to be found in the Le Pine Collection

Alice, Belle, Cinderella, Jasmine, Merida, Mulan,  Rapunzel, Snow White en Tiana.

I coloured Maleficent with my colouring pencils. I adhered her on some designpaper and added a sentiment and some fishtales make the card complete.

Have a great day and see you later!

Card "Ready for Spring" by Angela - Creative Team

Goodmorning everyone!

Are you longing for Spring? I do!

Although the Netherlands is a small country, here in the North it is still cold and windy, while in the South it already feels like Spring sometimes. I clearly live in the wrong part of the Netherlands 😉.

To get into the Spring mood a little, I have a card for you made with the gorgeous Ready for Spring Digital Stamp from the Nature Collection, which can be found in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I coloured the digi with pencils and blended the colours with odorless blending liquid. I used some designpapers to enchance the card. The sentiment makes the card complete.

Have a great day!

Slimlinecard "Princess Mulan" by Angela - Creative Team

Good morning everyone!

Today I have a card for you with the gorgeous  Princess Mulan from the Le Pine collection. You can find her and lots of other amazing digital stamps in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I multipled the Chinese lantern 3 times and resized them. After printing everything I coloured the images with my colouring pencils and cut them with my scissors. 

The background is made with some slimline cutting dies. I glued the images with 3D glue on the card. A little sentiment completes the card.

Have a nice day. 

See you next time!

Card "Coffee Break" by Angela - Creative Team

 

Good morning everyone!

Today I want to show you a birthday card for a coffee lover. Coffee Break from the collection Eat&Drink is the perfect image don't you think? You can find this digi (and many more super cute digis) in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I've coloured the image with Faber Castell Polychromos pencils. After colouring I uploaded the image into the software of my Silhouette and made the designpaper. It was fun to do!

I've used an embossingfolder for the background and added a sentiment. I don't think the card needs much more.

This is my last blogpost for 2025 so I wish you all Happy Holidays.

See you next year!

Card "Koala" by Angela - Creative Team

Hi there!

The collection Almost Cute is one of my favorite collections. You can use these cuties for so many different occasions. This time I used Koala for a birthday card for a little boy. Koala and many other lovely digis can be found in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

I coloured the image with my colouring pencils and cut it out with my die cutting machine. I've matted the image on designpaper and adhered it with 3D dots on the fishtales.

Have a lovely weekend. 

See you next time.

Card "Patty" by Angela - Creative Team

Hello all!

It's almost weekend and Patty is ready for her night out 😊.

Patty is one of the lovely digis from the Le Pine Collection, which you can find in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop - together with a lot of other great digis and much more.

I coloured Patty with my colouring pencils and after colouring I cut her out with my scissors. 

Perhaps the card looks a little bit difficult to make, but it's not.

You fold a piece of cardstock (28cm x 14cm) in half and you cut the front into a triangle with the point facing downwards 😉. Cover the cut-off ends with design paper as well as the triangle and the inside of the card. Then glue the cut-offs on the card as shown in the photo. In order to be able to write something inside the card, I glued a smaller triangle there where you can't see it when the card is folded. I glued Patty on the card with 3D glue. To complete the card I added a sentiment, a flower and some leaves.

Wishing all of you a great weekend..

Card "Fall Squirrel" by Angela - Creative Team

Goodmorning everyone!

Autumn is coming, whether we like it or not 😊. For me, it's a pity that summer is over. But not for a friend of mine, whose birthday was last week. She loves autumn, so I made her an autumn card.

I used the lovely digi Fall Squirrel from the Nature collection. You can find this cute squirrell and many more digis in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

As usual I coloured the digi with my colouring pencils. After colouring I used my die cutting machine to cut the image and the matching designpaper. To complete the autumn card I glued some toadstools and leaves on the card; for the finishing touch I put some transparent liquid pearls on both of them.

Have a lovely week!

Card "About Christmas no. 2" by Angela - Creative Team

Christmas in July!

 

Today I want to show you a card made with the super cute digis from the About Christmas no. 2 serie. You can find this serie in the Mirtillamente Craft Shop under the tab Svario.

The great advantage of digis in PNG is that you can merge them the way you like it. I made christmas baubles with a gingerbread, a snowflake, a candy and a holly. I coloured the images with my Promarkers and glued them with 3D glue on the pine needles on the card.

Have a nice day and see you next time.

Card "Catherine X-mas" by Angela - Creative Team

Goodmorning!

Christmas is coming.... so I have a Christmas card for you all. It's a card in pink, black, white and silver. Not a colour palet you think of when you make Christmas cards, do you?

Hope you like it.
