#29 fairy evening card - Lavinia World Challenge

Hello, hello
It is the third Thursday of June soooooo
time for a new challenge over at Lavinia World Challenge - #29 :)

Here is my inspiration for you, hope you like it and you will give it a try! 
For my card today I used Distress Oxides and Distress Inks.
It was supposed to be something else, but the technique I tried using, just did not want to be successful :)



1. I cut the card bases from 300gsm white card stock.

2.  Cut the base panel: neenah white paper 10.5 x 14.5 cm

3. Using Distress Oxides I made the background. I used Broken China and Worn Lipstick

4. Stamped Aurora with Versamark ink and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder.


5. I then used the Flower Miniatures to create the upper arcade. I used Dusty Concorde Distress Ink

6. I stamped the Star Burst using Distress Ink - Tea Dye


7. I also stamped the Fairy Buttercups using Distress Ink - Broken China.

8. Because I thought the card needed some more, I made a half moon using a circle die cut and some Distress Oxide, also Broken China. Then added some sparkly gems, glossy accents and traced some shades using a white gel pen.

9. Oh and some Nuvo drops :)

No sentiment, again :) but I really like this sort of cards to be like this, no sentiment, as they are like small canvas, don`t  you think?

Summer turtle holiday

Hello, hello
new challenge started over at Angie”s Digital Stamps.

It is a monthly challenge where you can win 2 of Angie”s digi stamps  
Any project, using any image, from anywhere is welcome! Adult oriented projects are allowed as well! 

My inspiration for you today is a very simple card I made using the TURTLE FAMILY DIGI STAMP


For my card I used masking paper, distress oxides and colored pencils. The sentiment is from Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine.
I die cut and colored the cute turtles and added them with double sided foam adhesive. Cut the base panel using a nesting die and added it onto the card base. 




And ta da, this is the result.
Really hope you like it and you will give it a go! It is very easy and who knows, you might also win some cute digis!

#28 Lavinia World Challenge - Moon Fairy


And it is June already :)

and it is the first Thursday of the month which can only mean one thing: 

a new challenge over at Lavinia World Challenge - #28 :)

Here is my inspiration for you, hope you like it and you will give it a try! This time I played with watercolor paper and Distress Oxides . At the beginning I wanted to make a galaxy background, which I have been trying for some time, but still unsuccessfully  :)
so i decided to go with this, instead
The card recipe

1. I cut the card bases from 300gsm white card stock.

2.  Cut the base panel: watercolor paper 10.5 x 14.5 cm

3. Using Distress Oxides I sponged here and there different shades. Blended them using a water spray bottle. Where I was not happy with the blending, added some more onk and then water, until i came up with the background.

4. Splashed some white acrylic paint for some more effect

5. I white heat embossed the Fairy Dust Silhouette and then, using a round die cut I made the moon shade, using dusty concord and a sponge

6. Using the Background Script stamp and the Snow Shrub stamp I stamped the frame. I used Tea Dye Distress Ink.

7. Wrapped the edges of the panel and as final touches I added the sparkly gems :)

No sentiment, again :) but I really like this sort of cards to be like this, no sentiment, as they are like small canvas, don`t  you think?
