Happy Birthday





Hello and welcome!

I had a problem with taking
photos of this card. I just couldn't
catch the right colour but finally
there they are. I actually like how
this card turned out, especially
when reds aren't in my 'colour
comfort zone'. Maybe now I will
start to use them more.







Now a bit about the supplies 
I used.
Image is Wee florist stamp
from Whimsy stamps. Coloured
with promarkers and inked
backround with distress ink .
Of course I couldn't resist to
add some glitter on her flowers.
Papers are First edition Rose 
garden. I have this paper pad
for soo long but never used
before. Ribbon is from Santoro
Gorjuss collection. For the
centre of a bow I used a button
that was a spare one, came
with a shirt I recently bought.
Sentiment is from Lili of the valley and there's a bit of lace from my stash.
I used sketch from Papertake weekly challenge :

Fancy invitation

Welcome
My todays creation is an party invitation. The image is Draculara from Monster High, 
my daughters favourite. There is no digi stamp of Monster High girls so I used
printable coloring pages for kids :) I coloured her with promarkers, cut out and
attached with foam pads. Since she has an umbrella I thought I would be cool if the
invitation was in shape of umbrella too. I used black pearlescent paper, pink glitter
paper and a paper straw for a handle.  Sentiment is heat embossed with pink
embossing powder. Border made with Martha Stewart punch.

Pretty in purples

Welcome!
          Here's another mother's day card. I think this one will go to my mother in law.  Maybe not all of you know but in Poland mother's day is on 26th of May, so I made the cards just in time :).
         I decided to go purple because I couldn't wait to use Kaisercraft Velvet crush papers that I bought recently. Image is Santoro's Gorjuss and was coloured with promarkers. I've added a bit of glitter glue on her dress and legs. Those beautiful lace borders are Anastacia border die from Cheery Lynn, corners are lace corner deco F also from Cheery Lynn. I've cut out two hearts from purple glitter paper and added some ribbon from my stash. Sentiment was computer generated. 
         I hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by.

Base is some sort of craft card, paper found online then printed. Fish was printed, coloured and attached separately with foam pads. Stamp coloured with promarkers, sadly I can't remember the name of it.
