LIM "Less is More" # 446

 Hello. In the end of this post is my entry in the "Less is More" challenge # 446 "OLC Monogram".

This is an OLC CAS card. I don't have any large letter stamps so at first I drew the Monogram (although I'm not an expert in drawing either, lol). The letters T and K are interwowen. The letter T is for my first name and the letter K is for my last name. Secondly I drew with a pen an oval using an oval die and re-drew the oval line with an ink pen. Thirdly I repeated the drawing procedure with a frame die. Finally I coloured the image using ink pens of three purpe tones and for the letters also some Glossy Accents. You can possibly guess that my fav colour is purpe ;) . 

Uniko Challenge # 65

Uniko Challenge # 65 "Anything Goes"

Hello. I have entered this card in 5 other blog challenges yesterday. Once I shared the card also on my IG account I heard about this blog challenge and decided to share this card in here too. The design is a combinaton of all the 5 challenge themes. This is a CAS Flower BD card in different purple tones, because purple is my fav colourworld.  I recently won a draw in AAA Card's birthday hop and received this Uniko stamp which I think is absolutely gorgeous. I hand coloured the image with ink pens. The sentiment is a combination of two stamp sets: the word "lovely" is from the Uniko set, the rest are taken from a set called "Whale of a Time" (a free gift in a mag way back in time). I hope it is allowed to lend a couple of words from an other brand. Everything is stamped directly on the card base, so there are no layers There is an "Use die cuts" option in the challenge theme but I have not used it as this is the only Uniko product I have (so far). There are plenty on my wish list, though.

# SSSIGChallenge, May - "Favorite technique"

(My 2nd entry)

One of my favourite techs is personalising cards by using die-cuts (and/or stamps) and one of my fav themes is related to music. So this BD card is a combination of  all that. A grand piano for a Piano Man. I have used an unbranded die-set to cut the black/white keys and the piano lid. The notes and the clef are from an other unbranded musical die-set. For the holder of the notebook I just cut pieces of cardstock and used my imagination when assembling it.  The card folds flat (see pic 4).

SSSIGChallenge; May - "Favorite Technique" (My 1st entry)

I love to make personalized cards and one of my favourite themes is the one related to music. This card represents two of my fav themes. It is for a boy called Lukas, who has his 4th birthday this weekend. He loves to play air guitar along Rock'n'Roll music. His fav piece is "I Can't Get No (Satisfaction)" by The Rolling Stones. He really is "Born to Perform". He also likes rainbow colours. Although he already knows many words in English the sentiment inside the card is in Finnish saying "Lukas 4 yrs Congrats".
