A very cool idea...

This week I swapped some stamped images and embellishments with some lovely ladies (Inge, Mariska and Christa). I saw this very cool idea at the blog of Martine and I just had to try it. She also has put an tutorial about it on her blog, so it is really easy to follow. I resized it a bit to fit also the embellishments and of course I pimped it my own way hahaha. So this is what they looked like:

I used some aqua cardstock by Papercolor as a base and used a patterned paper from a block from the Action. The upper flap I matted with some dark blue cardstock on which I stamped some flowers with opaque StazOn ink. It is so easy to make yourself some patterned paper like that and so much fun!

The stamp I used is also one of my newest stamps I bought at the Art Specially fair and it is by Penny Black, called "can't help it". Such an adorable image! I colored it with my colored pencils, cut it out with my nestabillities and matted it on some light aqua cardstock.

When it it was completely dry I filled it with some nice stamped images and a little bag which I filled with some cute embellishments. The postman already delivered them, so I can place them now;-)

Edit: Lins vroeg me hoe ik de wolkjes gemaakt had. Ik heb daarom een werkbeschrijving gemaakt, die je hier kunt downloaden.
