Time for Picnics!

Since I entered Gerda Steiner Monthly Challenge back in May, I received a super cute digi for this month's challenge!

I was really worried not to be able to participate this month, I was stuck in a very demanding order and I hardly found the time to make my DT cards.

 

Really at the very last minute, I've finished my card:

 

 

It's Picnic Penguin digital stamp mounted on a kraft card decorated with a picnic-themed patterned paper (I'm sorry, no idea of the brand).

I've also had the opportunity to test a new die from Toga I had bought in April: the fence is lovely, isn't it?

Christmas card Challenge # 30 - Anything Goes.

Welcome to a new Christmas Card Challenge!

 

A very sunny Sunday morning here, not the right atmosphere to talk about Christmas but we have a super-easy challenge this week for you so no reasons to forget to make our weekly Christmas card!

 

 

It's Anything Goes and I decided to make something a bit different:

 

A Magnet!

 

Last year I made some cute tags with this adorable owl from Lawn Fawn and I loved the colors so much I had to use them in a different project.

These square magnets which are perfect for Christmas but can be used throughout the year.

Paper is from DCWV and the owl is colored with Copics.

Should have made one for myself too...

CraftyHazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra - Mid-Month Inspiration.

Here I am to give you some more inspiration for CraftyHazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra for June!

 

Again this month, I opted for tags:

 

 

I chose this adorable Santa Candy Cane from Bugaboo Stamps and mounted them on pre-decorated tags. I matched the gold stars with glittery tape and satin ribbon.

Although I'm not a fan of gold, I think these colors match well together.

 

My teamies created very beautiful cards! Have a look here if you need some more inspiration!

Chipboard Crazy - Part 8.

Last week I didn't have much time to blog so I didn't show you my weekly chipboard card project.

 

Being a National Holiday today, I have a bit more time to write here on the blog while family is still sleeping.

 

This is my bright summer card:

 

 

I love this mix of pink, yellow, green and light blue and, of course, I love the wheel!

 

Backgrounds papers are from Lawn Fawn (Hello Sunshine) and I think they perfectly match my chipboard embellishments!

I then added tiny butterflies and, of course, some pearls to embellish the corners.

 

Ohhh summer!

CraftyHazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra for June.

June already? I can't believe it! Schools are closing in a few days and summer is here with its long days and... well... not so warm weather so far...

 

We have to talk about Christmas today, about our CraftyHazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra for June!

 

This is my project:

 

 

You know how I love making tags and these are among my favourite so far!

 

I used the super cute Mrs. Clause from our lovely sponsor Bugaboo Stamps and positioned her on pre-printed tags I found in a shop which I decorated with green ribbon, heart-shaped rhinestones, baker's twine and a little bell.

 

I made only a set of five but I should make more, I really enjoyed making them!

 

My teamies created great cards for this month inspiration, have a look here to see them all!
