Underwater world

Hiya my crafty friends!!!

Today's card I made for challenge: Underwater World sponsored by Papierowy Potwor which is first colouring challenge organised by Polish digi creator/seller - interested? Check info on my friend Ewa blog: http://hubka38.blogspot.co.uk/2017/07/potworne-wyzwanie-1.html.

For this challenge we all have a choice of 3 digis, two of them from Kuleczkowo and one from Potsi.

I choose one of images from Kuleczkowo. 

You can find this cutie here: http://www.papierowy-potwor.pl/p/33/1429/digi-stempel-kuleczkowo-syrenka. Not be surprised tho, when buying this one you actually receiving 2 different images with mermaids - nice bonus :).

I'm simple girl, so... my card is simple too ;) 

I coloured mermaid and fishes with pencils and cut them out, add bit of glitter glue on. 

I choose glittered sea theme patterned paper and layered it on navy blue cardstock. The same cardstock I used for my new fancy oval die cut :).

Then stamped my sentiment, distressed it with scissors and shaded with pencil, stick all pieces together, added few gems and... my card is ready.

What do you think about my new mermaid card?

Till next post friends!

Die cuts challenge

New month - new challenge at Conie Fong Art & Design FB Group 😊.

This time: Die cut/s.

Hmmm I had bit of thinking before I start with this card. Why? My crafty stash is kinda limited from die cuts point of view 😊.

I'm blue girl, but from some strange reason lots of my cards is in pink and lavender 😊. This card too 😊.

Beautiful image called Butterfly Kisses created by Conie was just perfect to team up with Regal Circle Doily from Tonic Studios. You can find this beauty in here: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/517084938/digital-stamp-digi-stamp-digistamp?ref=shop_home_active_16. 

I decided to add 'Thank you' die I have from crafty magazine plus some butterflies (handcoloured ) and result you can see above 😊.

From papers I used silver mirri card and piece of pinkish floral Hunkydory paper. Also added piece of white ribbon for extra texture.

And yes I was playing with glitter glue again  😁.

What do you think about my new card?

Girl with flowers

Hello crafty friends!

Yesterday we were on little walk to spent some time together with my both boys 😊.

But...

Day without crafting is kinda lost, so...

I coloured cute free image called Thankful Heart from TiddlyInks and used it for new birthday card 😊.

I distressed edges of papers and image, added ribbons, gems and piece of embossed card.

I choose rather simple layout and I love result 😊.

What do you think about my new creation?

Antelope Hello

Hello, hello my crafty friends!!!

Today another not squarish card :) and this time card with animal.

For this little project I choose July's freebie from Patricia Alvarez from Kinda Cute Cards called Antelope Hello.

Card dimensions: 17x11 cm.

I coloured image with pencils and then cut it out. I decided to use 2 floral papers and 2 pieces of ribbon for this project.

I added bit of glitter glue on antelopes horns.

Also had some fun when preparing sentiment for it. I used floral Fiskars puncher on one corner, added some glitter glue on butterflies wings and few green gems in top left corner for extra sparkle.

Mermaid and step panel card

Hi crafty friends!

Have to say I'm very rarely making other cards then square... Today's card is my first attempt with step panel fold.

For this card I used patterned papers from Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine free gift and beautiful mermaid called Liliana created by Conie Fong

You can find her here: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/293138661/sale-digital-stamp-digi-stamp-digistamp?ref=shop_home_active_49

Easy tutorial for this kind of card I found in issue 168 of Quick Cards Made Easy magazine.

I need to say I had fun with working on this card, to have all correct panels decorated and all properly stick together.

Glitter glue is my latest crazy addiction as you all can see :)

I wanted my card to be decorated with things which are screaming: SUMMERTIME!  - hope my embellishments choice is at least good :).

Little piece of blue sea glass and shell charm :) Plus few gems near sentiment.

I like how my card turned out. What do you think?

Heartfelt Wishes

Hello my crafty friends!!!

Today little card with cute image from Everyday in Moonbeam Meadow stamp set (Crafter's Companion) - free gift from Quick Cards Made Easy (one of issues from 2015).

I asked my son which papers he would like on this card and above you can see result of these consultations :)

For layering I used purple pearl cardstock and 2 patterned papers: one with purple and ochre accents and other with creamy turquoise floral patterns.

Also decided to add some sparkling :) Bit of cream/gold twine and die-cut butterfly with touch of glitter glue.

A Birdie Note and Geordie :)

Hello crafty friends!!!

I'm not sure how many of you knows where I'm actually living... So..

Since almost 13 years I'm living in Geordieland :) For your information: Northeast of England, not too far from Newcastle upon Tyne, precisely in beautiful Northumberland county.

When people hear Geordies talking, they're often making huge mistake to call chaps from here: Scottish or Irish. Geordies are proud and friendly people and Geordie is a very interesting dialect, you can read about it a lot on internet.

My friend from London was happy when told him, I'm coming to England, but was petrified when found out I'm going to Newcastle... He said: They're not speak English!!! 

Honestly I was surprised, how he could say: English people who are not speak English??? My shock came when I landed here :) But I'm used to of it now and I'm happy to call this place my home. I have lots of friends here and this card I made for them as kinda: Thank Yee Aal! card.

For this project I used image called: A Birdie Note from Art by Barb - if you are interested in colouring challenges with her beautiful images, check: https://www.facebook.com/groups/artbybarb/.

I decided to make my card: green, clean and simple with only one patterned paper, then I put sentiment together with my Trodat Printy :)

For all who wants to know what this sentiment means, here's translation:

'Singing for you Darling!'

 Want to know more Geordie words? 

Check: http://www.englandsnortheast.co.uk/GeordieDictionary.html, on this page you can also find lots of interesting information about Northeast of England, history, festivals, towns and cities, places to visit etc.

That's all for today!!!
