Some kind of weave

Hi everyone!

today I share with you my latest cards featuring Alex Syberia Designs products.

It's  time for the Modern Weave Layering stencil, one of my favorite products from the release.

This because it's very simple and fast  to create beautiful and striking backgrounds for our creations.

The Modern Weave Layering stenci set consists of 3 different stencil and  I used one different Distress Oxide ink color for each of them; specifically used  Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick and Festive Berries Distress inks

Once I finished with the stencils I die cut a rectangle and using foam tape I glued it over a white cardstock base. I glued over a small vellum rectangle and then  I added the "Smile" die cut , the sentiment string and the little gold  hearts from the "Sparkle and Dance" stamp set and dies set..



Here another version:

For this one instead  I used   the thanks die and the little sentiment from the "Create Your Own Happy" stamp set.




As I said before so very simple to make  right?

That's that!

Hope you like my cards!

Thanks for stopping by!

Ciao ciao

Create your own happy

Hi crafty friends!

Today I  share a new inspiration  floral card !

As a first thing I die cut my background using the "Fancy Cover" die  and a brownish/purple cardstock and I glued it over my base card. Then I stamped the flowers and the leaves from the "Create Your Own Happy" stamp set and I die cut them with the "Create Your Own Happy" die set.

I glued all of them on a purple Background and as a last thing I added the sentiments , one embossed I gold and the other one in white, and some gold  rhinestones .






And that's that! Very very easy...

Hope you like it!

Thank you for stopping by and reading me.

Hi crafty friends!
as you just read in my previous postAlex Syberia Designs is collaborating with Catherine Pooler Designs so today I'd like to share with you a the  card I made for the second  instagram hop  
Don't miss it !!

This time I am so happy about the result ..tell me what do you think about


As I said this collaboration is  perfect combination of stamps and inks and ... isnt'it absolutely true for this card?
As a first thing I made the  background blending the Stone Blue, Stone Blue, Dress blues, Suede Shoes inks by Catherine Pooler Designs
Then I stamped  the  elements from  the "For You " stamp set by Alex Syberia Designs with the same inks I used for the base, and then I stamped the outline leaves  and the flower details  embossing all of them in gold.
  Using the  "For You" die set   I die cut flowers and leaves (I die cute the leaves in foam too to add dimension all over  on the card) and I glued all of them on the blue background using the foam die for  and some adhesive mousse pad for the flowers.


In the follow  pictures you can  see the dimension all over the card:



As a last thing I stamped in blue the string sentiment, cut out it , doubled in gold cardstock and glued it over the flowers.
A final touch are the little blue and gold rhinestones.


That's that !! This  flower set is sooo beautiful and I know you will agree with me !

Alex Syberia Designs and Catherine Pooler together ...instagram hop

Hi crafty friends!
Today I'd like to share with you a new card I made for an instagram hop !  
The perfect combination of stamps and inks!!


For my card I used the "Create Your Own Happy " stamp set and die by Alex Syberia Designs and  the Limoncello, Stone Blue, Stone Blue, Dress blues, Suede Shoes inks by Catherine Pooler Designs
As a first thing I make the top background  using the Modern Stripes cover die , as a foil plate as I said you already in on the previous post. Once it's foiled I add some splashes of blue and gold ink.
I glued the top background at the blue cardstock base .
Then I started to work with stamps and I stamped the flowers using the various blue shades trying to create  some shades. I take a video of the making and I'll share with you soon... maybe on Instagram.
Once I stamped all the flowers and leaves I die cut and glued them on the background , some of them using 3d foam to add dimension.

As a last thing I die cut the Thanks sentiment in blue and gold and I glued it over the flowers.

Just because you are special

Hi crafty friends!! I want to wish all of  you a very happy new year !

One  the best way to start the year is for sure to make a new card using some of my new stuff !! It's the time for  "Life is Good " layering stencil set, coordinating stamp set and die! It's the first time I used the layering stencils and I had so much fun so  I couldn't stop!!




To make the card I started off using the Fancy background stencil with the  Textured Paste by Ranger.  
I chose the white on white  for a very clean design and I like so much the result.

After I start layering the floral image with  distress inks using red colors for flowers and the  blue-green ones  for leaves...  absolutely one of my favourite color combo!

Then I embossed the image using the coordinating stamps set  and  cut it out with the Coordinating die.

To compose the card I glued the dried  fancy background on a white base card  and over it I added the stencilled and embossed image. To add dimension I die cut the floral shape in white foam and the same I did for the sentiment "Just Because" from the "Create your own happy"using the coordinating dies.

From the same stamp set is the little sentiment string "You are special" I embossed in white.

As a last touch I added some rain drops and... that's that!


Hope you like my card!

Thank you for stopping by and once again  I wish you a very happy new year filled of love, creativity and peace..

Ciao Ciao
