Birthday Card in Silver and Gold & a Final Christmas Card 2014


I love my stripes stamp set...and I you will see many cards I will create with that stamp set :) (hope it will not makes you boring my blogland friends). This time I try to make a birthday card. 



It was really not so easy to combine SILVER AND GOLD together in a card.



Step I made:

1. Stamped stripes  Crossing Lines from The Alley Way Stamps with gold ink then gave gold embossing powder and embossed it.

2. Adhere the gold stripes panel on a gold paper .

3. Stamped the Sentiment on the Black Cut Out Frame (sent from Monika (Cohenna) many thanks my dear sweet friend, I promised to use it one by one and named your name on my post if I used it :)), and gave silver embossing powder.

4. Because it was not all "H" stamped good also I put embellishment (a handbag) on the H at birtHday, and adhere the Black Frame on the gold striped panel.



I asked my husband is it good?...he said...hmm your card looks sad...(because black always similar like a Sad card in Germany)...oh my....but I cant change again it finished now :)

Second card I try to make my own Plaid Paper using the TAWS stamp sets and these Ink.



Here is my Plaid Paper:



As I love to play at the challenge from AAA Cards challenge #30 the theme is Plaid Christmas, also this is my Final Christmas Card for this year :) 



The Image is from Pink Cat Studio (my old stamp sets) and the sentiment is from Hero Arts.




I colored my Image with Copic Marker :)

  2. I think you did a wonderful job of combining silver and gold, Monika! I love the gold stripes on the gold background, and the die cut you used is absolutely beautiful. The silver sentiment finished it off very nicely. Beautifully done! Thanks so much for joining us at Seize the Birthday! I, also, loved the plaid paper and that fun cat image on your other card!

  10. You are just going to town with that striped set! You are really making all sorts of inventive things with it! I don't think your first card looks sad, I think it looks elegant and stately. And your second card with that plaid is so bright and cute!!

  11. Gold and silver is a beautiful combination, but ii find it hard too to use both on the same card. It turned out very stylish though.
    The plaid paper you've made looks awesome. It's such a sweet CAS Christmas card.

  18. Thanks for visiting my blog Monika and the great comment you left me. I really love your stripe stamp. You've used it effectively in your card and I don't think black and gold look sad: to me they look very classy. On your Christmas card - I never thought you'd made your own plaid paper until I read what you had done. So clever!

  37. The silver and gold Christmas card is just stunning. Never would have thought that silver and gold could look so good together. But, then of course your second Christmas card, wins the prize for cuteness!
