Love is in the Air!

Hi again crafty friends! Today there is also the new challenge started at Storie di Timbri blog. For this month, the theme is

Color Combo

This challenge  sponsored by Glimps. So I chose the “Cuori in Volo” image from Glimps to create the project or this challenge. I have made a card with red and pink color combo. The pattern paper is from Pion Design. Heart frame is from Cheery Lynn Design and other die cuts are from Doohickey.

I colored the image with color pencils using red & pink color combo. But I used distress ink and cloud die cut to create the cloudy sky background.

I decorate the card with Gypsophila heart wreath with “Love is in the Air!” sentiment.

I use heart balloon embellishments from my stash which really match the image as well as other embellishments like paper flowers, ribbon, and glass berries..

I would like to enter this card to these challenges.

Hello crafty friends! Today it’s the first of February so it’s time for the new challenge at Magnolia Forever. The theme for the current challenge is perfect for February which is

Love

To match the challenge theme, I have created a sweet card in pink & gold tone using Magnolia “Heavenly Tilda” stamp from Aspen Holidays 2016 collection. The card base is from Vintage box 4 and colored with gold acrylic paint. The pattern paper is from Laboom.

Tilda image was stamped with light brown ink and colored with distress ink in sweet color tone. The frame around the image is the “Ring of Hearts” doily die cut from Cheery Lynn Design.

I also decorated the card with heart & wings die cut, ribbon, and charm. The wings are from Doohickey box volume 12 and embossed with shabby white embossing enamel.

The word “Love” is the die cut from Simon Says Stamp and embossed with gold UTEE. I have decorated the card with lots of paper flowers and pearl embellishments.

Snowy Hug Step Card

Hello crafty friends! Today there is a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps. The theme is

Frosty Friends (Snowmen)

To match the challenge theme, I have created a step card using Magnolia “Snowy Hug” stamp from Merry Little Christmas 2010 collection. I wanted the winter scene on the step side so I added snowy pine trees behind Tilda and snowman. I used EK Success punch and Doohickey die to cut out those trees. Then, I applied snow paste on the bottom of the card to create snow texture on the ground.

I decorated the snowy ground with snowflake confetti and some sequins.

On the left hand side, I added a sentiment from LOTV stamp and heat embossed the text with white embossing powder. Then, I decorated with die cuts from Doohickey Vol 12 (Snowman), Vol 7 (Icicle), and snowflake.

I colored the stamped image with distress ink. I also added Wink of Stella Clear Glitter pen to created frosty effect on snowman.

Here is my card featuring this new stamp.

I think this new release collection is perfect for pastel colors. So I used mint-peach color combo for this card. To get soft and sweet image coloring, I colored the stamped image with color pencils that I just recently practiced using them. The flags and alphabets die cuts are from Magnolia and Die-Versions. I finally added some ribbons and sequins to finish this CAS card.

Sparkle New Year

Happy New Year everyone! I wish you all a happy crafty year with lots of energy and creativity.

Let’s begin this year with the new challenge at Magnolia Forever. This year we have changed our challenge into a monthly basis with more sponsors for each challenge. The theme for this month challenge is

Celebrate

Since I’m in the mood for New Year celebration, I’ve created a sparkle double-star shaped card using two Magnolia stamps. They are “Tilda with Holiday Sweater” and “Singing Napoleon” stamps from Aspen Holidays 2016 collection. To create a mood for celebration party, I’ve hand-drawn a party hat for Tilda so that it looks like she is having fun with her cat. The Star shape is from Little B dies and star trellis die cut is from Doohickey Box Vol 10.

The banner is also from Magnolia Doohickey. The sentiment is from LDRS. They are currently having a huge bargain including this sentiment stamp set.

Close up for Tilda and Napoleon. I’ve colored them with distress ink.

I would like to enter this card to these challenges.
