CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT

Hello my friends!!!

One ornament on two cards,same conception but different color's .

This card is really perfect for mass production.Easy to make in a couple minutes with minimum effort.

On my first card I stamped few different snowflakes with 4 different ink color's.With Nellie's Choice ornament die i cut gold card stock and blue paper.To make look  like it's hanging I add some gold thread  and put on top gold stripe(perfect place to hide a double sided tape :) )

Second card is all the same,accept I use one ink color (Frayed burlap distress ink).

With my first card I participate -CUPCAKE INSPIRATION--challenge 338

AND WITH SECOND CARD... CREATIVE FRIDAY---TAG'S

AND  CRAFTYHAZELNUT'S CHRISTMAS CHALLENGE--Use die cuts or punches

Gold,vellum,white card

Heloo my friends!!!

I think I am addicted to gold embossing on vellum.If you are looking through my blog ,you will see lots of my cards are made with vellum,or with gold embossing...I just can't help myself.

I embossed jingle bells,sentiment and the snowflakes(Viva decor stamp set "Christmas decoration and embellishments"),and cut out the bells .The tag was embossed with dot's embossing folder and distressed with Frayed burlap distress ink.To give dimension I add a gold thread,and on the top off ribbon.

All that I lay on a card 12cmx12cm.

CUTE BEARS ON CARDS

Hello my friends!!!

This weekend is my finally my crafty weekend and I started with this adorable  digital images from Di's digi stamps Teds Christmas and Boozy Christmas B&W...LOVE THEM..

I really love the images,so I keep  the cards simply.At the both cards I did everything the same.

I color them with watercolor pencils,and create some scene.On the top one,I add a few gift's  and lay the image on beautiful designer paper from Crelando.Add  a gold polka dot ribbon with bow,and snowflakes(Paper Smooches dies) and embossed the sentiment on vellum with gold embossind powder.

This card is the almost the same as the top one,only here I add a tree and a couple gift's.Lay the main panel on a green paper a little bit off ,just for the interesting.Put all together on a light green card stock and add a few red sequins.The sentiment is Croatian and I embossed it on a vellum.And finally touch are two snowflakes.

BIRTHDAY CARD IN WINTER

Hello my friends!!!

It's getting colder and colder every day,here in Croatia. In the morning temperature is going under the 0 degrees.It's a matter of time when the first snowflakes are going to fall,and my youngest one(she is 3 and half years) just can't wait.Last year we build our first snowman together,she was so exited and thrill, and that gives me inspiration for this card and to use these cute digital stamp from Di's digital stamps.

I colored the image with watercolor Faber Castel pencils and cut with circle die to make round panel .Blue card stock is from Crelando  and I stamp some snowflakes with blue ink to make ton on ton background.From the vellum I cut snowflakes with Paper Smooches snowflakes die( I LOVE IT) and put randomly around the main panel.On the center of the snowflakes I add some rhinestones so that they can sparkle a little bit.Under the circle panel I cut from vellum a banner and wrote with silver stickers Happy 18. and cut word birthday with Clearly Besotted die.I cut it three times to get some dimension,and the first time is from vellum and it's a little bit off,so it looks like a shadow.

COFFE MUG

Hello my friends!!!

What a cute Digi stamp...LOVE IT..This Digi stamp is from GSD CHALLENGE---November's Challenge

Just couldn't resist to participate this challenge with such an adorable image.And it's my  first time.I color the image with Faber Castell color pencils and blend it with baby oil.For the background I did a lots of embossing.First I inked the forest with green ink and stencil.With embossing pen I trace the edge's of the trees and embossed with transparent glitter embossing powder.And than happens a little mistake...the powder doesn't cover the trace from the pen,and it's visible,but I can always said it's the shadow :))),it's suppose to be like that.

Than I embossed the hill's also,but with white powder,and the sentiment with gold on a vellum.

I embossed the falling snowflakes too,but under the vellum I make the bigger for some fun.

Last touch on my card is the white snowflakes from Paper Smooches die snowflake set.
