my friend ♥

I was playing with my clear stamps and ended up with another clean and simple card. Not much to say on how I made it, just stamped in a row four different stamps from the same set with different inks, then I added a few stitches with embroidery floss. The sentiment is a dollar rubber stamp I had for ages...

I finished my card with an embellishent I like a lot: used a crushed expresso coffee cup, a flower, a tiny button and a few puched butterflies.

Thank you so much for stopping by, wishing all moms a wonderful day! (hopefully not so hot as here, we were around 100F/35C this week.... we are in May, please!!!!)

just Because...

I wanted to use this image from the day I got it but... so I took it out of my folder of printed-ready-to-use-images and used it on this card, how cute! I also took my folder of paper scraps and made this card in no time, love the result and love the feeling of using paper I don´t want to throw away ☺

The image is from Bugaboo stamps, I colored it with colored pencils, cut it around and placed it on the card with foam tape.
I finished the card by stamping the sentiment and adding three gorgeous sequins. Thank you for stopping by!

Two cards today

Look how beautiful this image is! it´s from Designed to Delight and I made this card to play at their challenge this week. The patterned paper on the background is a napkin, they come in gorgeous colors and design lately. I added a piece of ribbon I had for ages, some twine and a button

I colored the Pail of flowers with colored pencils and didn´t blend them because I love the texture of this paper.

My second card is a CAS one

Very simple indeed! but I like it a lot. I used Home from Shirleys 2 girls and I colored it with crayons and blended them a little bit with mineral oil. Glittered the clouds, embellished with a piece of sheer ribbon and two heart pins (I glittered one of them too).

Here is another picture where you can see the iridescent cardstock.
