Hi crafty friends!

I’m Francine Vuillème from www.1001cartes.ch  I live in Switzerland in the wonderful Three-Lakes-Region with my husband and our sweet Papillon dog Max. I’ve been crafting for over ten years. I discovered scrapbooking and cardmaking by leafing through a book and it was love at first sight. It changed my life, as well as my shopping habits LOL! I’m self taught. I love experimenting and playing with different techniques, especially ink blending and mixing colors together. You can find me on Instagram @francinevuilleme. Thanks so much to hÄnglar & Wings’ team for having me as a guest designer this month! I hope you’ll enjoy my card inspirations using their adorable stamps!

 

For today’s card, I decided to use the cute girl from the Large WinterhAngels (Stora WinterhÄnglar) stamp set.

I went for a clean and simple design that makes the image pop. I created a top-folded card base with white cardstock. Next, I sponged blue Distress inks over the card front using a blending tool. I adhered a white stacked hearts die cut to the ink blended background to add a layer for more interest. I then stamped the adorable girl in black ink, colored and cut her with scissors. I adhered the sentiment and the girl with foam pads to the card front as shown. The sentiment is from the Large WinterhAngels (Stora WinterhÄnglar) stamp set too. To finish off my card, I added three enamel dots. It’s a simple card but the image stands out so well against that clean background.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this post. That’s all for me today! See you soon with more inspiration!
