Hristos a Înviat!

Hristos a Înviat! Sper c? v-a?i bucurat de un Pa?te fericit, plin de lumin? ?i binecuvântare al?turi de cei dragi. Anul acesta am creat mai pu?in decât mi-am propus îns? am reu?it s? dau culoare unor ?tampile digitale folosind pe o plan?? acuarele si tu?uri pe baz? de ap?, iar pe alta am colorat folosind Promarkers, ni?te markere pe baz? de pigment.
?tampilele digitale sunt de la GerdaSteinerDesigns, una dintre creatoarele mele preferate de ?tampile. Acuarelele folosite sunt minunate ?i vin de la Staedtler, un alt brand favorit. Iar, tu?urile pe baz? de ap? sunt #distressinks de la Ranger. Pentru toate acestea am folosit cu drag pensulele mele cele noi, pensule cu rezervor de ap? de la Kuretake ZIG.

Guest Designer Call – March

Hi everyone! Hope your day went well and that you and your loved ones are doing well too!

I’m on the blog today with a project that I entered in the Guest Designer Call for March over on #GerdaSteinerDesigns page.

This project is a birthday card for one of my nieces, for Maria. She is such an adorable girl! Her birthday is on the 16th, but this year she celebrates it earlier. Happy birthday lovely girl!

For this card I used the #digistamps set called Dancing Penguins, created by talented Gerda. I am definitely in love with her designs! The card base is made of pink textured card. The front background is made of a piece of watercolour card, very lightly touched by a brush using some of the Distress Ink Minis (no. 4) after spraying it with some water. I fussy cut the penguins, the presents after colouring them with Promarkers.

I wanted to add some dimension, so, I added some Wink of Stella touches on the gift boxes, the hats and the scarves, then, a bit of Glossy Accents on the penguins’ beaks and feet. For even extra dimension, I adhered one of the penguins and one set of gift boxes using some double sided foam tape.

And of course, there is some baker’s twine wrapped around the upper side of the front cover, tied in a bow just to give it a bit of a final touch.

Angels & Lights

Hello everyone! Hope your day started with a smile and happy thoughts.

The post today is about two cards I made using these lovely angels. The #digistamp comes from Gerda Steiner Designs. I have discovered her page while following Julia Altermann’s creations and videos. Gerda creates such cute characters and I am so grateful for all of them.

Now, on to the cards, I can say that I adore this angel as it reminds me of my niece Antonia. Just look at this adorable face! Read more

Digital November

Hello, dear fans!

This November I go for a newly found addiction called digital stamps. I have no idea why I haven’t tried them before! So, let me tell you a bit more about this. Through another passionate crafter ,that I admire profoundly, Julia Altermann from just-one-more-card.com, I found out about the cool digital stamps created by awesome Gerda Steiner. So, I went there and got some and then gave them a try.

The first one is with the birthday bear. The next ones are going to be all Christmas-y. Yes- yes … it’s that time of the year, I know. We, craft makers, all go in the holiday mode.

But first, I have other news to share with you. I’ve got a cool stamp, thanks to a dear and close family member. What do you think? Pretty cool, isn’t it?

Now, here is the card using the digital stamp. I went with a very clean and simple idea. No sentiments, no sequins. Nothing but the stamp, coloured in with Promarkers. Hope you like it.
