Fun with Tags.

As my readers probably already know, I LOVE making tags!

 

I've had some time recenlty to make some new tags to be added to homemade cookies or cakes.

I made a few sets to give my sister for Christmas along with a mixer and it was time to make some for my shop:

 

 

Since I couldn't decide if it was better in green or in red, I made a red set too:

 

Which one is best?

And this time there's the Italian version too!

The graphic is from Winchester Lambourne, isn't it gorgeous?

I Love Little Notebooks!

I've recently enjoyed myself creating some little notebooks, perfect to be tacked away in the bag or in the car.

 

I had already made a few but I wanted to make some more.

 

I reached for my patterned paper stash, for some die cuts and stamps and made these:

 

 

This one is probably my favourite, with this funny fish from Taws.

 

Then, one perfect for a little girl:

 

made with one of my stamps from There She Goes.

 

Something yummy for the food lover:

 

made with a cupcake die cut I had in my stash.

 

Then, the last one you may remember from some time ago:

 

made with a fawn (or deer?) die cut I bought somewhere around the web a long time ago.

 

I LOVE to see my collection on the desk this morning!

 

 

These notebooks are for sale in my Etsy shop. Please contact me if you need help in locating them.



Christmas Card Challenge # 16 - Photo Challenge.

Happy Spring!

 

Although it's not yet 8 o'clock in the morning, the sun shines and it seems it's going to be a beautiful day!

 

Here we are with a new Christmas Card Challenge and with a new photo inspiration:

 

 

In detail: kraft and white ornaments:

 

This is my card:

 

I chose a bright green card which I covered with a kraft cardstock with green dots from DCWV.

I then cut two ornaments with a Lawn Fawn dies from a cardstock by First Edition and added tiny rhinestones around the sentiment.

 

Although it's not my typical kind of card it's been funny to make it!

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!

He is Chef Pierre Platter from Bugaboo mounted on a plaque decorated with an old paper from Best Creation with a post-it pad glued next to him.

The Wedding Season is Fast Approaching.

Thinking about upcoming events, I realized that May is not too far and that it was a good thing to start making some new wedding cards.

 

The first is this one:

 

 

In my files she's called "the thin bride" because she's so thin and elegant but her "true" name is actually a bridesmaid: Bridesmaid Toodle from Broken Box.

I used to be in their DT and I enjoyed every minute of it. I still look through their image when I need to make a new card.

Their toodles are absolutely adorable and their brides are no exception!

 

I colored her with Copics and used two papers from DCWV as background. I then needed to add two tiny pearls as earrings!

 

This card is for the following challenges:

Allsorts Challenge # 353: International Women's Day

A Guest Designer Spot for Crafting by Designs.

I'm pretty excited this morning because I've been asked to join Crafting by Designs for this week's challenge.

 

The theme is Monochromatic and I made this card:

 

 

These coffee cups are from the Coffee Lovers digi stamps set from Drawn with Character.

I colored them with just a shade of neutrals and assembled the card with papers from Dovecraft.

 

I've a few projects with these cups on my desk, all waiting to be finished! Can't wait to have some time to complete them!
