Have a gorjuss birthday

Heya! Only 2 weeks til Christmas. Yay! I don't know about you, but to me days are just flying by. So much has been happening right now ... I've already sent out all of my Christmas cards. Looks like I've been extra productive this year as I still have some Christmas cards left (I think this is the first time something like this happened lol). I guess the ones I have left will be on stock for next year; it doesn't hurt to have a head start. ;)

But December in not just about Christmas. One of my sweet friends is having a birthday in December as well. :) I know she loves Gorjuss, so I made her a card using one of those cuties.


This image is called Gorjuss Ladybird. Isn't she adorable? I coloured her with distress inks.The flower paper is from my stash and the green paper is from Kaisercraft. Flowers, doily, ribbons, lace and pearl string are from my stash as well. Do you see those butterflies? I made those using the silicone molds and mod melts that I received from my friend (thanks so much girl!!). What a wonderful thing! I love how they turned out. I used one whole stick of mod melt just for making butterflies. No surprise there, huh? lol All of the dies I used are from Spellbinders. The oval behind the image was embossed with Cottage floral embossing folder by Craft concepts.


I hope you've been enjoying December so far and I wish you a wonderful day! :)
Hugs! xx

  2. Wow, I am loving these bright and cheery colours Maja! What a refreshing card to view while it's storming like an SOB outside right now (pardon my acronym) lol. Your ladybird is stunning, great job with the distress markers! What a lucky friend to receive such a beautiful card! I am so happy you made your own butterflies, it is so much fun to do that isn't it? And they turned out fabulous! Until your next stunning card, holiday hugs to you! :)

    1. We've actually been getting some nice(r) days lately. Finally! After all that rain this is a very pleasant change. Unfortunately sun won't last long - we are supposed to get rain again tomorrow. *sigh*
      I actually did the colouring with distress inks (pads). ;) I don't own a single distress marker. lol
      Oh yes, I had lots of fun making those butterflies. And I'm really happy with how they turned out. And they are sooooo easy to make, which is an added bonus. :D
      Big hugs to you and thank you for your sweet comment! :) xx

  3. It's creeping along very quickly now Cebelica, only 14 more sleeps !!

    Afraid I can't say much abut your card as for whatever reason Blogger is not showing me photos the last couple of days, not to mention the silly thing in the comment box on lots of blogs where the cursor just goes along but doesn't type. Sooooooo frustrating.

  8. Hi Cebelica, this is awesomely gorgeous! Love this Gorjuss girl, you have colored her beautifully and the design is perfect for birthday. Very envious that you are ahead this year with your Christmas cards, I am still working away getting the last few done. Have a lovely day my friend.

    1. I guess miracles do happen. I've never been ahead with my Christmas cards before, actually I've always run out of them (and time to make more). It's the first time I'm ahead. I hope you'll manage to finish the ones you still have to make in time.
      Thank you very much for your sweet words about this card. I'm glad you like it.
      Hugs! xx

  9. Wwwwaaauuuu še ena lepotička! Krasno si skombinirala cvetlični papir s črtastim papirjem in čipka končnemu izdelku doda mehkobo. Deklič je krasno pobarvan in metuljčka sta resnično nekaj posebnega!
