Thinking of you

Loving this hoopskirt frame stamp! it´s part of a set of clear stamps my sweetheart got me (isn´t he sweet or what???).

here you have a close picture, I stamped two of them directly onto the card base and stamped a swirl (from another clear stamp set) on the top part to add them a bit of height; the third one I stamped it on a scrap of a book page I painted with pink acrylic paint, cut it around, glued a few feathers behind and placed it with foam tape. Then, I thought something was missing so I glittered them a bit.

To make the bottom border I pleated a paper measuring tape (thank you IKEA!!! ♥), I took a piece of this beautiful embossed vellum paper I had for ages and cut around the image, I didn´t like it while I was making the card but I sticked with my first idea just to trust myself a bit... and now I think it looks delicate and pretty, what do you think? I finished my card with a tiny tag and a sentiment.
Have a nice day!! and thank you for stopping by ☺

Angel in a jar

I love to make little things for my daughter, and I love to recycle things, so I put the two of them together and I made this cute angel in a jar.

The idea is very simple: you start with an empty marmalade jar, then pick an image you like to put inside and embellish your jar as much as you want!

I used a Michelle Perkett image that I colored with colored pencils and added some details to it: pearl paint on the stars and moons on her dress, glitter on her wings and cuffs, and a few white feathers on her wings too. I glued the angel inside the jar and fill it with some iridescent plastic shredded paper as clouds.

Then I painted the lid with gesso, and after it was dry I glued with mod podge a sentiment made with single words cut out from a magazine. I finished the lid glittering all its border.

And to finish this craft I painted tiny dots of glow in the dark paint on the otside of the jar, my idea was for them to look like tiny stars during the night, they can not be seen very well on the picture...

Hello my friends! I´m still here! with a lot of work and a little time to craft, but here I am with something to share with you all.

How cute is this image??!!! it´s Big deal birthday from Digi´s with attitude that I colored with colored pencils and glittered everywhere!

Today is Thursday, that means we are having another great challenge at Glitterbabe´s challenge blog, we are challenging you to use buttons and this is my inspirational creation I made for you. I´ts a coaster that I altered to turned it into a mobile, that´s why I decorated both sides

I used craft cardstock from my stash to cover both sides of the coaster, then I took a piece of this beautiful patterned paper (a gift wrap from my stash also) and added a circle on the front and scalloped edges on the back. I added stitches and buttons both sides: around the circle on the front and around the sentiment on the back part (placed with foam tape). The sentiments are from TlcCreations, wonderful too! To hung it I put a string of fishing line and decorated it with some large glass seed beads before gluing the cardstock.
Do you like it? hope so!!
