You're Special

Hello and Happy Mother's Day!

I was extremely inspired by the photo challenge of the Gals at the Color Throwdown- hence the colors, hence the butterfly. The card is interpretation of the sketch from Case this Sketch Challenge. Lately I enjoy playing with watercolors and I have to give credit about that to the Gals at the Happy Little Stampers. They challenged us with watercolor + embossing and I have to say- it's a pretty satisfying combination.

To all the Mothers out there- You ARE Special!!!

Case MFT

Hello again!

Today I'm taking a little break from the Mother's Day cards making marathon and decided to do something different.

The Case This Sketch Challenge came up with a very cool idea, and even though it seemed pretty easy, it wasn't.

I used the sweet little elephant from the MFT stamp set and also followed their color combo, so I can create this card for my dear friend, who' s been fantastic this past month.

I hope she like it :)

Speedy Challenge

Hello and Happy Saturday!

Today I am partaking in a speedy challenge that the Girls over at As You See It suggested. With a little cheating ( I pre-planned everything) I manage to finish it for 8.42 min. And then it took me about an hour

to clean up the mess lol. What I did is, I flipped the sketch from the Case This Sketch Challenge and used the colors from the Color Throwdown Challenge. A few twirls of watercolors and 2 stamps later- and I had a card.

I hope you like it!

Thankful for you

Hello and welcome to the Weekend!

It's a new month, filled with hopes and dreams...and potentially a lot of chances to be creative

I am slowly trying to catch up on the Mother's day cards list, so today I am joining in with this card of Gratitude.

There was this desire to play with watercolors today. So I did. I combined the technique idea from The Happy Little Stampers Gals with the soft pastel colors and spring theme of the Card Concept inspirational photo. I used those elaborate Butterfly silhouettes, who came to life with some colors under their wings.The result was this one layer clean and simple card. I used the color swatch is from the FabFriday Challenge.
