I would like to share some oldies from my work (I made them before started my blog:-)

One of my favorite a small "book" type card (I learnt from my friend Gaby, she is amazing crafter!:-).
I made this for my husband for Valentine's Day.
Isn't cute?:-)














I like to make the easel cards, because they are very attractiv, I think. Here is some example:

Specially for these cards I used two or three different idea from videos, and gave to them some own idea (honestly saying I just discovered accidently:-)
I like to watch videos on the youtube, lots of interesting thing are there:-) I learnt a lot from them.

So, one idea was the easel type and the small size (the folded card size is 4 1/2 x 4 1/2). An other idea was the double embossing (very decorativ). The own invention, that the flower embossing folder size is great for this card size, and this piece, what I had to cut down the bottom, exactly good for the base, so when the card is open, can see the whole picture:-) 
Tha double embossing mean embossing in two steps. First embossing the background (in this case the plant design from cuttlebug), after have to sanding the top. Put in the flower design folder (from cuttletbug) and embossing. After sanding a little bit. Cut for the right size and gluing. The smaller piece from the embossed paper bottom is good for the base, mounting with foam mounting, enough high for stuck the top side when open it.
