Christmas Card Challenge # 18 - Favourite Coloring Medium

Good afternoon!

So sorry I'm late today for my weekly card for our Christmas Card Challenges!

Here's my card:

The theme is "Use Your Favorite Coloring Medium" and mine is, of course, Copic markers!

The image is a sweet stamp from Lili of the Valley and I wanted it to pop out of the card so I kept the background papers quite neutral.

Have a look at the cards made by my teamies, they are great!!

Daisy Mouse Mini Cards.

Just a quick evening post to show you a new creation made with an Eat Cake Graphics rubber stamp, a couple of tiny cards with an adorable mouse, Daisy:

I've used some paper scraps from Pink Petticoat matching some old Lasting Impressions envelopes.

I then added Daisy Mouse with a matching dress, colored with Copics and added punched butterflies.

I love this little mouse!

Eat Cake Graphics stamp used:

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge # 252 - Weather.

How is the weather in the place you live?

Well, have a look out of the window and start creating a new project inspired by the weather!

Yes, this week at C.R.A.F.T. Challenge we'd like to see cards or projects inspired by the weather in your little corner of the world.

Here in Italy it's spring, which means sun then rain than sun than rain...

Actually, the last couple of days were quite a bit cold, too. Yesterday it hailed then temperatures dropped below 10°C.

The image I've chosen for my card is perfect for this weather:

The digi stamp is Make It Snappy - Thinking of You from Bugaboo Stamps (I changed the sentiment).

This sassy girl has boots, a pink umbrella and, of course, a yellow raincoat: all she needs to be elegant even with bad weather!

I've seen sneak peeks of beautiful cards from the DT so don't forget to have a look at C.R.A.F.T. Challenge blog and be inspired!

A Birthday Challenge.

The other day I was reading Purple Onion Designs blog and I found out that they are having a challenge.

The theme is "Birthday" and I decided to make a card.

I treated myself with a few of their stamps back in January but the biggest ones were all Christmas-themed.

I added two tiny stamps to my order and I wanted to make my card with them

Think, think, think... and I made this:

The stamps are "Sign" and "Star & Sky" from the Stacey Yacula Studio Collection available at Purple Onion Designs. I colored them with my Copics and mounted them on a long card made with an old ivory card front from Lasting Impressions.

I loved the idea that, starting from tiny stamps, I was able to make a big card!

Christmas Card Challenge # 17 - Anything Goes!

It's Anything Goes this week at Christmas Card Challenges!

Even if spring is the season I'm less inspired to create Christmas Card, this week it was super-easy to make one (with a bit of spring in it...).

This is my card:

I've finally been able to use a stamp I bought a long ago from Inky Antics. I colored it with Copics and mounted it on a dotted paper decorated with ribbons and rhinestones.

I love the way this little frog looks at me!

A Very Sweet Easter Bunny.

Yesterday I was inspired by the challenge at 2 Cute Ink to finish a card I've had on my table for a while.

I wanted to make a CAS card for Easter using a 2 Cute Ink bunny surrounded by eggs, an image I found perfect for a little baby.

I had already planned everything and colored the image with my Copics but I never found the time to finish it.

I added the bow, some rhinestones and, of course, glitter!

Here's my card:

Isn't it sweet?

Great News!

* * This is my 2nd post today, please scroll down to read all about this week's C.R.A.F.T. Challenge * * 

I have exciting news to share with you!

I've been accepted in Eat Cake Graphics Design Team!

I already had some stamps from Eat Cake Graphics so I could start working immediately with their sweet little images. I love them all especially kids and cats!

In fact, my first project is about cats:

 This very very sweet cat is Tarzan and you can find it here in Eat Cake Graphics shop.

It was easy to color, cut and mount on a chipboard plaque covered with patterned paper.

Isn't it sweet?

I'd like to enter my cat plaques into the following challenges:

Pasta.

I LOVE pasta!

I could eat it everyday!

And, since I ate cooking, I often eat pasta with Parmesan cheese only.

When I discovered the "Valentine Punnies" set in Whimsie Doodles shop, I immediately fell in love with the Mac & Cheese image.

I created this:

I thought that they were perfect for a little magnetic notes holder to be kept in the kitchen.

I printed them on heavy paper, colored them with my Copics markers and added an orange ribbon behind.

They are so sweet!

Christmas Card Challenge # 16 - Use Chevrons.

Good morning!

Sunday means a new and exciting Christmas Card Challenge!

This week the theme is... Chevrons!

This is my card:

Again, I wanted to use bright colors for my Christmas card so I chose this lovely paper by Miss Tiina at SugarHill Co. and assembled the card following its colors.

The digi stamp is called "Birght" from Whimsie Doodles: I colored it with Copics and glitter. I then added rhinestones in the corners to give my card a special sparkle.
