Have an eggs-cellent Easter

Hi crafty friends!

today with a new inspiration card using the lovely Spring Bunnies stamp set and the coordinate dies.

Easter is just around the corner and this set is perfect for the occasion!!

Let me show you the card and tell you about the making process!

How much fun making working with these cutie bunnies!

To start I cut the  rectangle for the top card (4" x 5 1/4") and I divided it in 9 parts using the score board . With a metallic pink gel pens   I colour the score marks as to create a Tetris scheme.

Then I matted the top card with a yellow cardstock , I glued all on the white base card and the top I stamped and colored some little flowers and hearts,  so the my background is ready.

Then I stamped the all the elements I needed from the "Spring Bunnies" stamp set  on the Neenah  cardstock  coloring them with Copic markers. Once I finished I die cut  them  with the Spring Bunnies coordinate dies  and I glued  the eggs and the bunnies on  the card.

As a last thing I stamped and embossed in white the little sentiment.

I admit this card takes me some time but I 'm so happy with the result!

Hope you like it too.

Thanks for stopping by and reading me .

Ciao ciao

Poppies for your birthday


Hi crafty friends!

Nicoletta here today with  a new inspiration card featuring the Cindy Lou's Poppies stamp set and dies and the the Birthday wishes stamp set and dies.

To make the card I started from the background using the Spun Sugar, the Kitsh Flamingo and the Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide inks .

Then I stamped all over the background the poppies and flowers from the Cindy Lou's Poppies stamp set  and I embossed the gold using the WoW! Embossing powder called Fool's Gold.

Then I printed  and embossed  the big sentiment "it's Your" over a piece of paper perviously inked with Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide.

I die cut is using the coordinate die and I doubled it many times with  a white cardstock and  with different shades of pink cardstocks to create a colorful trail.

I printed and embossed the little sentiment "birthday! and I glued them over the top panel.

As a last touch I added some gold pearls.

And that's it!

Hope the card can inspire you !

See you soon!

ciao ciao

Love from me to you

Hi crafty friends!

today I share with you  with you a cute card I made using the Giraffe-ic Friends stamp set and the relative dies by Alex Syberia Designs.


I started the card creating a colorful background . I wanted something that remind me of  the Savanna sunsets, so I chose a Distress Oxide ink combo with the Wild Honey, the Spice Marmalade and the Seedless Preserve colors.

Then I stamped all the images I needed  (from the Giraffe-ic Friends stampon a X-Press Blending card and I colored everything with Copic Markers.

Once I finished I die cut all the images using the Giraffe-ic dies set and I started to compose my card.

First of all I glued the elements on all the  background sides and  I cut out all the protruding parts; then I glued the front panel on  white card base and I continued adding all the images I previously colored.  To add dimension  I used some  foam adhesive pads .

 

The Copic colors I used:

Giraffes: YR24/YR12/Y23/Y21/E50/R20/110/W9/W7/W5

Bushes: BG78/BG75/BG72/BG70

Foliage: YG67/YG63/YG61/YG99/YG97/YG95/YG93/YG91

Flowers: RV66/RV55/RV52/YF24/Y19/Y15/Y13/Y11



I complete the card adding the little sentiment I doubled whit a little string  blended with the Seedless Preserve distress Oxide ink.

And that's it!!



I can admit I love these adorable Giraffes and I'm quite happy about my card!

Hope you like it too !!!
