Slimline Card "Selene Gipsy" by Alena Christin - Ambassador

Hi everyone,

I find October so beautiful. All the colors are so vibrant and yellow and orange seem to be everywhere.

That’s why I colored Selene Gipsy from the new release using these colors. 

You can find Selene from the Le Pine Collection at the Mirtillamente Craft Shop.

For the background, I kept the mixed-media work very subtle so the vibrant colors would really pop. I decided to go with a slightly larger sentiment this time.

Wishing you all wonderful autumn days.

See you soon,

Alena Christin

 

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.

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 "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.....

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!

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!

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.

Slimlinecard "Princess Mulan" by Angela - Creative Team

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.

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..
