February 1st a colleague of mine celebrated that he had worked at Kamstrup for 30 years, and I was asked to make a card for him, which turned out this way:
I have used black and white cardstock + some that I made myself with the company's logo on it. For this card I have used the following Spellbinders dies: Matting basics 6x6, Elegant Ovals and Radiant Rectangles. I used halfpearls from my stash and then I fussy cut an image of a large ultraflow.

Birthday card for Mette
My friend Mette celebrated her birthday in the end of January, so I made her this card also with papers from Maja Designs new collection "Celebration":
I used lots of different papers from the 6x6 paperpad, the image is also from that. I distressed the edges and some of them got embossed with some silver embossing powder. I only used one die, which is the "Intricate Doily" from Intricut. The lace and halfpearls are from my stash.

Girly birthday cards
A couple of weeks ago I was trying out the letterpress technique, and I got these two very girly cards out of that:
For both cards I have used the letterpress technique using a Memento ink called "Rose Bud" and an embossing folder from Crafts Too. For the top card I only used dies from China, for the bottom one I used a die from Spellbinders "Elegant Ovals", Sue Wilsons "Melbourne" and a Chinese die. The flowers are from WOC and the ribbon and halfpearls are from my stash.

Birthday card for Lone
Today it is my friend Lone's birthday, so I made her a card and hopefully it arrived on time. I recently purchased some new dies, so it was the perfect occasion for trying one of the new ones. Here's the card:
The background paper is from Maja Designs "Summertime" collection. I used all 3 dies from Spellbinders "Oval Ironwork". The large one I cut out twice, glued together and sprayed with "Rudolphs nose red" from Lindys Stamp Gang, the other 2 I cut out in silver cardstock, the smallest die was also cut out twice. I added some cheesecloth, halfpearls, and flowers from WOC, some of them I colored with "Rudolphs nose red".

4 birthday cards
My son went to a birthday party yesterday. It was 4 of his classmates who celebrated their birthdays together, so he needed 4 cards. I decided to use some of my scrap pieces from Maja Design. All the papers I have used are from their Christmas/Winter collections.
These are the cards for the two boys. Here I used star-dies from Crealies.

And these are the cards for the 2 girls. Here I used the Make-a-Wish die from Spellbinders D-lites and the banner is from Marianne Design. Here I also inked the edges with Vintage Photo from Distress Ink.
I made the cards very similar, just switched the papers around so that the cards didn't become identical.
