Fairy Penny loves Peonies. So do I.

Peonies are my favorite flowers, and that's exactly how Fairy Penny feels too. She lives in a lovely Peony garden, where the flowers could be of any color you'd like. Papers by Basic Grey, and coloring done using Promarkers and Inktense pencils. :)

Luckily for me, my mother has the most beautiful peonies in her garden every summer. Even when I used to live on the other side of the country, she brought me some when she visited. I even remember some years ago, she wrapped them in wet paper, and mailed them to me.

Fairy Auburn

Hi, again! It should have been a card filled with sunshine and colors today, as we're still in June. But every time I looked out the window during the day, it felt like autumn was already here. Grey skies and rain all day. But I really don't mind that much. I love autumn - it's my favorite time of the year. And the best thing about rainy days is that you can do the things you like to do indoors, without having to feel bad for not enjoying the outdoors.
 

So I made this card, pretending September was knocking on the door, bringing a thermos of coffee and asking me to join her for a walk in the woods to collect mushrooms. Stamp is "Fairy Auburn", colored with Promarkers and Inktense pencils.

I will enter this one too into the challenge over at A Spoon Full of Sugar, as it fits this week's theme :) Check them out!

Fairy Bliss

Feels wonderful to be creating again, even if it's just a simple card or two. Who cares if the stash fills up the whole livingroom, dining table, coach and half of the ground floor. The cat is having a ball trying to get my ribbons out of the Pull-EZ, and trying to have little naps on top of my papers.
 

Well, this is what I made this afternoon. A card with the stamp "Fairy Bliss", and papers by Basic Grey. I'm not sure about the brand of the sentiment... sorry about that. I made this for the challenge over at A Spoon Full of Sugar, please check out their wonderful challenges, sponsors and designers. This weeks challenge was to make a "Good Luck"/"Best Wishes"-card. My card is colored with Promarkers and Inktense pencils - as usual.

Runaway Bird - (a Pop up card)

You know how it is when there are just too many unpleasant things spinning around in your brain, and you need something to take your mind of things. Yeah... well, that's usually when I start on projects where I'm kind of clueless. Like a card with a pop up birdcage... But figuring it all out, made me occupied for a while there. And then I just grew tired of the whole thing, so I guess I'll save the cover of the card for another rainy day.

And - needless to say - it's all just paper. And glue. A ruler, a tired brain and a tired scalpel too.
And a runaway bird.

Thanks for visiting! :o)

Lida, My Princess

Another motif from the latest PapilioStamps. This one is called "Lida, my Princess". Still using those gorgeous papers from Webster's Pages. I just love their papers! I've used Promarkers and Inktense pencils on this one too.

Lydia's Party

I finally managed to make a few cards. Wohoo... After carrying a ton of my stuff downstairs to the livingroom, I spent a few hours doing the things I love to do. I don't know why I can't seem to find the time and energy more often.

Here's a card featuring the stamp "Lydia's Party" from my latest collection by PapilioStamps. Hope you all like it. Coloring: Promarkers by Letraset and Inktense pencils from Derwent. Patterned paper by Webster's Pages.
Actually, I made a bunch of cards earlier this spring, but they were all given away without having their photos taken. I haven't been too eager updating this blog, have I? Let's hope I will be a good blogging girl from now on...
