A Glimpse of This Summer

During this summer I had "crafter's block" if you could say so. I kept all the fabrics ready but struggled to get anything fit together.
 Anyway, I at least got done some congratulatory cards and maybe they helped me to get on with the hobby. :) I guess also the holiday time offered some new places to relax and see things differently.

Here's a name day card...


One birthday card...


And a card for house-warming party. :)

A new favourite place of mine where my fiancé's family's summer cottage near the water. :)


We circled the area a lot with bicycles, and saw some beautiful sailing ships too:

Thanks for looking! Have a lovely autumn!

If the Broom Fits...

Seen any black cats?

Well here's a bunch of them! Still cute kittens...
Maybe it's a bit early for the Halloween, so let's say this little witch is just training for her first flight. ;-)



Taking part to Wicked Wednesday's 97th ATC challenge "broomsticks and black cats".

Materials: Used some Graphic 45's Times Nouveau Collections paper for the background, and Distressed & inked the edges with frayed burlap colour (of Tim Holtz of course). The main image is from Heartwarming Vintage. Inked the edges after using a corner cutter and attached them together with the red brads. Finally wrote the phrase on top with waterproof black ink.

Thanks for looking!
