Flower Ant

Hiya peeps!!!

I like to take part in Progressive Challenges in Sasayaki Glitter. Even if making a card take me a bit of time :)

This cute ant was waiting coloured by me for over week to be placed on card. I decided to make this card as colourful and cheerful as possible.

I had bit of thinking where to place sentiment and decided that wherever I place it, something will be missing, so... I die-cut little butterfly and coloured it and added just above ant's head :)

Image, butterfly and sentiment I stick to card on foam tape for kind of 3D effect. 

I really like how my card turned out, how about you?

Till next post friends!

Healthy lifestyle vs Cupcakes

Hello peeps!

I'm just in time with my card for this funny challenge :)

But all in order ...

About this challenge I heard from friend about 2 weeks ago if I'm not wrong.

So... I joined new group (check here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/187877358304468/ ) created by Alicia Bel who is very talented digi stamp designer (check her website:
http://www.aliciabel.com/index.php ).

Then I had to choose which of her stamps I want to use on my card which determined in which team I'll be for this challenge.

I'm massive fan of cupcakes so my choice was kind of easy :)

Isn't she a cutie?

I coloured her with shades of orange, brown and green - with pencils. Still too afraid to try with markers :) Maybe one day :)

Below finished card:

Decided to use one patterned paper and 2 bold coloured papers.

For sentiments I used 2 different stamps - one from BuzzCraft set 'Paws fur a Moment', one from Papermania. Ending result: cute card for Mum - for Mother's Day or Birthday :)

That's all for today friends!

Till next post!

'Make it green' challenge

Hiya all!

I can say, I'm between colouring challenges at the moment :)

And have lots of fun by trying to choose images, colours, papers etc...

Today about 'Make it green' challenge in Conie Fong Art & Design FB Group.

For my card I decided to use cute image called: Bella with gift. I love this sweet teddy :)

To coloured her I used few shades of green, yellow, orange and grey pencils.

Have lots of thinking what papers should use for it and choose bold yellow and green with glittered floral paper as main layer.

I cut image partially and shaded a bit with green pencil.

For layering of sentiment I used 2 pieces of paper in yellow and green cut diagonally, edges of sentiment are shaded with yellow and green pencils.

Used rather simple and clean layout to make image stand out on card.

Hope you like it as much as I do :)

Till next post friends!

My crafting boy :)

My son, Dom, will be 5 in May this year. He is artistic soul, I'm sure of it :)

Yes, he loves his blocks, cars, Lego and dinosaurs, but.... also painting, drawing, sticking things together. I'm very proud of him!

His first Christmas card made at nursery when he was around 3 yo.

Drawings on the wall in our living room from about the same time :) We have lots of scribbling like this on pieces of paper, his wooden table or chairs :)

He loves lots of colours on his pictures.

And definitely likes to use my tools :)

Lots of sticking as you can see above and below :)

He started to be more confident with pencils during last year..

Halloween colouring :)

And his colouring for Kit and Clowder challenge :) He didn't like result, but I think is rather good :)

Last week Dom had midterm break - whole week at home with me and Tula, and we can say he was lucky ;) I received crafting magazine which I subscribe since few years. 

Stepper card kit was a free gift with it and honestly you should see Dom's eyes when he saw it!!! Those lights in :)

He was choosing bases for each card, and pieces he'll place on them, I helped just a bit with shaping bases and adding sticky tape, rest was his job! Look:

He made 4 cards and we still have tops/embellishments for another 4 I think, so I need to prepare cards bases for him to have more fun :)

Till next post friends!

February challenge at Conie Fong Art FB group.

Being member of Kit and Clowder FB group gave me a chance to meet lots of digi stamp designers. Conie Fong is very creative girl from USA, whose cute designs are adored by huge group of Clowdies 😊.

Lots of us joined Conie's FB fan group and taking active part in challenges. 

This month challenge - project with 'Flowers in a vase'.

Sorry for this dark pic 😊. Image before coloring 😊. 

I decided to use browns, yellows, clay/gold and olive pencils for this image. I thought they'll be perfect for textured handmade papers I have since years in my stash. 

It is midterm in my son's school so he decided to help me a bit 😊. He's an artistic soul and is great with choosing colors. He liked papers I choose, but he has his idea how to put them together  (different then mine ). 

Here is how Dom wanted this card looks. 

Bottom of the card after all was stick on place and inked.

Top left corner with double color ribbon as extra touch.

Finished card. All parts inked with brown ink. No sentiment so far, but I think card will be perfect as birthday card.

Till next post friends!!!
