Layout: Hello Birthday Girl
My younger one turned 3 last year and she wanted a blue princess party. So we made a blue cake with a crown and also thought other blue things to add to the coffee table. The 9th Wave papers fitted the color scheme of the party perfectly and I used the elements from the collections in the layers behind the photo. I also added the turquoise letter stickers falling down like a stream of confetti from one corner to the other.

Cards
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner so there’s a need for some cards. I created two very different ones using the exactly same background. The other one is done with warm colors and it’s flowery and more girly. The other one is done with colder tones and is more modern.

Layout: Be the wallet you are
I had for the longest time a “Nightmare before Christmas” wallet but after I got married I decided it was time for a “more adult looking” one. So I bought a huge black wallet, which was quite stylish. I used it about a year or so and then when I had my first child and stayed home I usually just took my bank card with me when we went outside as the huge wallet didn’t fit into my pocket. After a while I won a little fabric coin wallet in a raffle and found it to be perfect for my bank card. Now I’m back at work and I still use that little fabric wallet instead of the huge, stylish one. I just find it more “me”. So it dawned to me one morning when gathering my things, you really should be (the wallet) who you are.
