Clean and Simple

I'm in the process of making some birthday cards, and the one I'm showing today is pretty clean and simple.


Some strong colors are used.

The text from a Norwegian birthday song


A sentiment inside the card

Space to write a personal greeting.

Paper:  White and lilac cardstock. 
Text: Stempelglede and Kort & Godt

Text: Kort & Godt
Embellishment: Flowers from NSS, cheesecloth, ribbon & punched leafs.
Other: Go Kreate dies, edges are distressed with Pumice Stone,

A wedding card - Bryllupskort

 Idag har jeg vært i kirken og sett et vennepar gifte seg. 

Det var en utrolig vakker vielse.

Når brudgommen reiser seg og synger
"Den finaste eg veit"
 i det bruden blir fulgt inn av sine brødre,
da er de fleste solgt. Ialle fall jeg.



Og rett før ringutveksling så reiser begge to seg og 
synger "Speilbilde" til hverandre,da var det gjort.


Til kortet jeg lagde, valgte jeg å følge en skisse

Den er fra Sketchy Colors


Disse nydelige papirene er fra Pion Design



Paper:  White paperbag. 
DP Pion Design - Flower Frames 
Text: NSS 
Embellishment: Flowers from NSS & pearls.
Other: Spellbinder dies, edges are distressed with Pumice Stone, 
all panels are sewn by hand.
