Around the World.

Good morning!

 

Today I'd like to show you one of my lastest creations with one of my favourite themes: travels!

 

This is the card:

 

 

I again reached for my Broken Box Stock file and found this lovely globe. I colored it with Copics, added papers from October Afternoon (Travel Girl) and a pretty clip to hold notes and sentiment.

 

I always dream of travelling somewhere when I make these cards!

A Lucky Unicorn!

Good morning!

 

Here I am again with another new card:

 

 

It's Lucky Unicorn from 2 Cute Ink.

I've been in their team for a while and my daughter is a great fan of Heidi's digis so it's easy for me to reach for one of these cute images and make a card.

This unicorn inspired me a Best of Luck sentiment, everybody needs some luck every now and then, right?

 

I made a very simple card: a light blue card blank and the image, colored with Copics. Then, my favourite embellishments: hearts and pearls!

 

Bright and happy!

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge # 291 - Anything Goes.

Merry Christmas!

 

It's Christmas day and the challenge here at C.R.A.F.T. couldn't be easier: Anything Goes!

 

Let us see all those cards and projects you have not yet had the chance to show us!

 

As most of my recent projects, I stepped away from the Christmas theme and enjoyed making a fresh and spring-y card:

 

 

She is Hot Air Balloon Ride from Pattie's Creations mounted on a background paper from Chic Tags.

I stamped the seagulls with black ink and colored the image with Copics.

 

Pattie's Creations is one of our wonderful sponsors fro this week's challenge and she's offering 3 images to the winner.

 

Have a look here to check challenge details and sponsors and to see my teamies' creations!

 

Again, have a Merry Christmas with your family and friends!

 

St. Patrick's Day.

In Italy, we do not celebrate St. Patrick's Day, we know it because we are shown images from Ireland or the US of the St. Patty's parade on March 17 by the TV.

I don't know if I like all that green, green is a difficult color so it took a while to make this card.

But we do believe that shamrocks mean good luck and we all need good luck these days so I followed this theme.

This is the card:

This funny image is from Hambo Stamps and it was free as I entered a card in last week challenge.

The theme for the challenge was to use this St. Pat Hamster digi stamp together with gold. I used gold glitter for the coins and a yellow/gold/light green paper from an old Sizzix stack as background. I also put some gold paper behind the sentiment.

Of course, this card will be entered in Hambo Hoedown Challenge.

But it's perfect for some other challenges:
Meljen Design Challenge # 49 which asks for GREEN
Crafty Hos Challenge which asks for GREEN, GOLD and WHITE

Good luck to everybody!

This Was a Real Challenge...

Last week I discovered that Hambo Hoedown stamps was starting weekly challenges. I like their stamps and they have digis too which are surely the best choice for me living across the ocean and not too willing to pay for shipping and to wait for delivery.

They gave us a theme and a free digi to work with and it was a real challenge for me, the theme being FOOTBALL. Well, I know almost nothing about soccer which is our national sport game but I know absolutely NOTHING about football!

But I like challenges so I made this little card, with a little girl running for her own match in mind.

The paper is from DCWV and as usual the digi is watercolored.

My daughter dances and swims, she could never play football or something so masculine (she would be swept away) but I guess somewhere there are girls playing this kind of sports and, since I think that a girl is always a girl I had to glitter numbers...
