Easterchick - Heartcraft Paper project

Howdy folks!

It is the beginning of February and this means it is Release time at Heartcraft Paper :)

We are thinking ahead and Monica Martinez - owner and designer, came up with some gorgeous Easter/Spring digital stamps.

And because it is 1st of February, we also have the blog hop and a challenge with prizes , so make sure you visit all the blogs on the list at the end of this post to see what all the other talented ladies, fellows DT, have designed with these cute digital stamps.

For my project, I decided to use the Easter-chick stamp.

I cut mu base using 300g/sqm white cardstock, 10.5 x15cm. I also cut a panel - 10x14cm of Bristol paper. Using a stencil from my stash I played with Distress Oxides - squeezed lemonade and spices marmalade. I then applied Nuvo Glimmer paste, for some extra sparkle.

I left it to dry and in the meantime, I printed and colored the stamp. To color I used my Polychromos pencils.

After it dried I cut the 2 rectangular tags, the orange and the white on, stamped the sentiment and then started to assemble everything.

Because the upper side was too empty I decided to add 2 butterflies from one of the tonic kits.

And as final touches, some Glossy Accents :)

 And this is the final result! really hope you'll enjoy it.

Bear invitation/card

Hello, hello

I am back with a very cute project. Being a member of the facebook group called Koala T Crafts and discovering Jen Evers had a huge impact on my crafting :) I love all of her videos and ideas and it is sooo inspiring. So, starting from one of her live videos, I designed a bear project which turned out to have a double destination: it can be an invitation or it can be a card! The dimensions of the base card are 12 x 17 cm and I used mainly colored carton to do the bear.

So, I used several round dies and puncher to create the pieces. I assembled them and ta tam, a nice Ms Bear.

It is very easy to do and also fun :) I will try to make more in different shapes and colours.

If you like this project, please write me a comment, if you don't, also leave a comment :)

Happy birthday card!

Hello, hello

It's been a while since I posted but that's only because I had a looot to do. Anyway, I decided to make my post as regular as possible, so let's see how this will turn out.

This post is about a card that I made starting from an order from a dear client of mine and also starting from a monthly challenge from one of the Facebook's crafting groups that I am a member of (https://www.facebook.com/groups/325658940086/).

The challenge was to create a Double tag card in shabby chic style. Pretty hard for me because I don't have enough experience, actually I might say I am a complete newbie. The order was to design a card for a very nice lady, turning 70. So, I prepared my materials, at least a part of them :) and I started.

I did some research first and then I started working. the template provided by the challenge had no measurements so I had to do them by myself. Not that hard :) I took an A4 card from Søstrene Grene, which by the way have some AWESOME supplies :), and measured ans scored it ij order to have the template. I die cut and stamped and decorated and ta tam :) 

Final result ...Hope you like it, 

huggies xoxo
