C.R.A.F.T. Challenge # 321 - Wish You Were Here.

It's time for a new challenge here at C.R.A.F.T. Challenges!

 

This week we go sentimental and we want to see cards or projects with a "Wish You Were Here" theme.

 

I thought about vacations and this is my card:

 

 

This lovely Cabin in the Woods is from Robyn's Fetish. I used an old background paper from Docraft and, of course, my Copics.

 

Have a look here to see what my teamies have created for this week!

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge # 293 - Not a Card.

Welcome to a new C.R.A.F.T. Challenge!

 

This week we have something new for you, the theme being Not A Card!

 

Here's what I made:

 

 

He is Strongo from Doctor Digi colored with Copics and mounted on a wood door hanger covered with a striped paper.

I love red and light blue together and they seem so beachy... now that Christmas is over and my fav season is over too, I long for summer...

 

Doctor Digi is one of our fab sponsors this week, so start creating, we can't wait to see what you come up with!

Herbert & Daisy Mouse... again!

My most affectionate readers probably already know how much I love Herbert and Daisy mouse stamps from Eat Cake Graphics.

 

This week I've done something a bit different from my usual cards, a couple of toilet signs:

 

I still have many wood plaques from my painting days and I wanted to make something mixing paint, paper and stamps.

 

Plaques are painted with pastel colors from DecoArt, dotted with white paint and then decorated with pearls and the two cute mice stamps colored with Copics.

 

I love them!

 

Eat Cake Graphics stamps used:

5039-C Daisy Mouse

Coffee Anyone?

I know, I know... It's been a week since my last post. I actually thought it was just a few days but this morning I realize that it's Thursday again.

It's been a busy week: I've got some orders for painted plaques so I've had to set aside my papers and digis and take out my acrylics and wood pieces. I'm happy to be back to painting and to have those nice chats with Customers who want customized pieces and ask for advice for gifts and color matches.

Unfortunately, I don't have cards to show, I haven't had time to take part in some of the wonderful challenges that I are there waiting for cards and my Etsy shop appears a bit neglected.

Christmas is fast approaching and family chores require more attention and dedication than in other moments of the year.

I have no new cards topost but I want to show a picture of a little hanger I've just painted for a lovely Customer. I had the coffeepot already painted on sale on ebay and she asked for a matching teapot and here's what I did:

I love them! I'm thinking to have them painted for my kitchen too!

I hope to be back sooner and with new cards and new challenge posts!
