You Colour My World

Pink, light green, polkadots, spring... so many fun challenges right now and I´d like to play!

This one was for my Mum - a little "Thank you" in addition to a sweet treat to say thank you for giving me an understanding of art and creativity while growing up. She always enjoyed all kinds of art - the perfect addition to my Dad, who sparked my passion for photography.

So here´s my little gift for her:

The pretty butterfly is the Lydia Butterfly die by Memory Box, the paper bag by Rayher.

"Smile" is a die by Penny Black... I enjoy these word dies so much lately!

I had nice soft colours in my mind and enjoyed painting the background with watercolours. 

I used the Vintage Roses stamp set by Altenew and the "Thanks" by Impression Obsession...

For the inside I used my License Plate Mini Alphabet Set by QuicKutz:

I´d like to enter these challenges with my card and paper bag envelope:

For a little girl

Yesterday evening I checked my favourite challenges and was instantly inspired by:

I (heart) Promarkers: For a little girl 

Simon Says Stamp Challenge: Add crowns and/or gems

CAS-ual Fridays: Put a bling on it!

And since Cath from The Moxie Fab World extended her Doilies&Lace Challenge, I´d also like to submit it there.

Here´s a peek on the inside...

Today is a holiday here in Austria, so I will continue relaxing now...  how delightful!

Have nice day, too!!!

Sweetie

Ich freu mich immer ungemein, wenn ich Kinder vor die Linse kriege!

Letztes Jahr bekam eine meiner liebsten Freundinnen ein ganz entzückendes Mädchen.

Sie war ca. 2 Wochen alt, als ich die ersten Fotos von ihr schießen durfte… es war Mai und die Rosen in unserem Garten standen gerade in voller Blüte – so nahm ich ein paar mit, um einen mädchenhaften Hintergrund zu gestalten. Ich wollte ein in Farben und Gestaltung „zartes“ Bild hinbekommen für die Karte zu ihrer Geburt.

Das war das fertige Bild für die Karte nach ein bisschen Digital Scrapbooking ( ich hab nur den Namen hier entfernt, um die Privatsphäre der Familie zu wahren)

I´m always more than happy if there´s an opportunity to take pictures from children.


Last year one of my dearest friends gave birth to a sweet baby girl.


She was 2 weeks old, when I got the opportunity to take some pictures of her… it was May and the roses in our garden were in full bloom – so I took some with me to create a feminine background for a soft and subtle pic for the baby-announcement-card….


After a little bit of digital scrapbooking this was the final pic for the card ( Ijust deleted her name for the sake of the families privacy)

Sie ist so eine Süße!

She is such a sweetie!

In den nächsten Blogposts gibt es mehr Bilder von ihr – letztens haben wir einen Photoshoot mit Seifenblasen gemacht…

Come back for more current pics of her! We did a photo shoot with soap bubbles recently…
