Today I had some fun playing with some Nicecrane goodies:
A little goodie bag for a nostalgic loved one. The bag is just the right size for a size 10 Manila tag (plus some crafting goodies should you wish). The vocal image is from one of several Peter Rabbit sets. The images in these are so adorable. They come in various sizes, with or without backgrounds. I used two pngs and put them together in my own background, just for fun. Unfortunately they can't be sold in the UK or Europe, but if you are from across the pond, check them out! For the rest of the bag I played around with inks and sprays, a texture folder from Sizzix and other bits and pieces flying around my desk. Here are some close ups:
Sorry for the horrible blue tones in these photos, the light was bad once again when I took them... |
Again I created a background with inks and stains and some stamping and embellished with die cut leaves for a woodland feel.
The embellishment at the top is a Vintaj leaf that I put through a Sizzix texture plate and then sanded.
Well this is a bit different from my usual stuff but I had good fun playing. Thank you for visiting and I will be back tomorrow with the usual freebies...☺
Vidunderligt arbejde, Peter kanin og Co. er så dejlige, jeg troede et øjeblik det var mig du bød velkommen som ny følger, men jeg kan se der er kommet rigtig mange siden mig. knus morkaren.

My dear Astrid,
ReplyDeleteI wish I could sit with you, and learn---watching you treat all those papers and dies- inks and tecniques- that alwayes ends up being very beautiful art pieces in your hands.
The sweet images on the bag, are just home in your created surroundings ,and the tag is like watching outside my window ,in the dusk ,seing the squirrel in my apple tree. Such wonderful layers of ink and stamps, and that leaf looks fantastic.
Astrid thank you for your loving comment on my blog, it warmed my heart and made my day happy .
Love and hugs from Dorthe
