Hi everyone and happy Sunday :)
Don't know why but I almost forgot to post this card I've done a few days before here on my blog.
Maybe it's the tremendous heat we actually have? *phew* It's incredible and I hope it will not last for too long! I'm definitely not a heat loving woman *lol*
I used the August sketch from The Craft's Meow to create this card - love playing with this sketch, because it's so versatile and it gives you so many possibilities to make the result 'your own' - so I decided to stay simple this time. But maybe I'll do another card using this sketch... we'll see if I'll find enough time :)
Hallo zusammen und Euch allen einen wunderschönen Sonntag :)
Ich weiß gar nicht recht wieso, aber ich hätte doch beinahe vergessen diese Karte - die ich bereits vor ein paar Tagen gemacht habe, auch hier auf meinem Blog zu zeigen?! *ups*
Vielleicht liegt es ja an der unglaublichen Hitze, die wir zur Zeit haben? *puh* Es ist echt unfassbar heiß und ich hoffe inständig das es nicht allzulange anhält! Ich bin mal ganz definitiv nicht der Mensch, der Hitze gut abkann oder gar mag *lol*
Ich habe für diese Karte den August Sketch von The Craft's Meow verwendet. Der Sketch hat mir besonders gut gefallen weil er viel Raum lässt um seine eigene Kreativitiät auszuleben. Man kann dem Resultat letztlich seinen "eigenen Stempel" aufdrücken :) So habe ich für diesmal beschlossen die Karte eher schlicht zu halten. Aber vielleicht werde ich noch eine weitere Karte nach demselben Sketch basteln ... wir werden sehen, ob ich noch Zeit dafür finde :)

ReplyDeleteWhat a really pretty card! I love the fact you have used a verse on the card. The backing paper is lovely and the ribbon/lace really finishes it off. Perfect for our theme.
