Have I already mentioned that I'm totally in love with the @streamside_studios Strawberry cows? I hope you like this card as much as I do, because I'm totally cuteness overloaded here! Making this card was such a delight! For this project, I paired the stamp set with the @teamspellbinders Tiered tray die sets. For the background, I used the new @the_greetery Wicker weave stencil. #streamsidestudios Strawberry cows and Berry sweet mice #spellbinders Tiered tray and Tiered tray decor die sets #thegreetery Wicker weave stencil #lawnfawn Woodland critters Winter add-on #tsukineko Memento ink #distressoxide Scattered straw and Tea-dye #distressink Tattered rose, Kitsch flamingo and Worn lipstick #copic #copicliner #3DFoam #card #cardmaking #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadecards #diycards #sssigchallenge #diecutting

My recent sepia almost monochromatic card gave me an appetite for more monochromatic and I needed an excuse to use the new @mftstamps Mermaid for each other set. Though, I can't say blues are in my comfort zone, especially as my markers are a bit old, but it was definitely fun, and stressful, but fun. Hope you find them interesting!

I had to use one more time the new Festive poinsettia set from @alexsyberiadesigns. I wanted to use less conventional colors this time with some light colors. I quite like this color combo.

Sharing a space card today. Hubby is a great fan of the space theme and when I saw that new @funkyfossildesigns stamp set combining astronauts and whales, I thought that was so poetic. I really love how this card turned out and I hope you do too! #funkyfossildesigns Astro & the space whale #studiolight Under the sea #heffydoodle You're weird #simonsaysstamp Holding space die   #tsukineko Memento ink #inkadinkado Masking paper #distressoxide Salvaged patina, Peacock feathers, Salty ocean, Prize ribbon and Black soot #copicwhiteopaque #copic #thiscallsforconfetti Blue and gold platinum sequins #studiokatia Glow in the dark mini stars #studiolight Sea scenery stencil   #card #cardmaking #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadecards #diycards #sssigchallenge #interactivecard #shakercard #diecutting #onelayercard

Sharing another project for @alexsyberiadesigns. This time, I played with the new Falling snow stencil to create a Christmas tree.

I'm back on the @heffydoodle blog today with my second and last project. For this project, I combined 2 of their stamp sets: Sealy friends and You go, gull with their Ripple waves stencil. I'm so happy with how the scene turned out. The ripple waves stencil is a real stunner and I just love how much interest it adds this sea. #heffydoodle You go, gull, Sealy friends, Watcha saying? and Ripple waves stencil + Happily ever crafter and Elfish antics (sentiment) #sweetnovemberstamps Dock on the bay #chouandflowers Scrap #2 #paperieink Mine mine mine #tsukineko Memento ink #distressoxide Speckled egg, Salty ocean, Salvaged patina, Peacock feathers and Uncharted mariner #copic #inkadinkado Masking paper #copic liner #sakura Gelly roll pens #card #cardmaking #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadecards #diycards #onelayercard #sea #summer #summercard #love #wedding To create the card, I stamped the various images, using the masking technique.

I have a quick and easy card today, along with a couple treat bags, using the @streamside_studios Strawberry cows and Sloth-some stamp sets. I also used the Berry sweet mice set for the small sentiment on the card. #streamsidestudios Strawberry cows, Berry sweet mice, Sloth-some #memorybox Wooden alpha die #echopark Love word die #mftstamps Wood plank background #whimsystamps Slimline fence die set #lawnfawn Goodie bag and Milk carton die sets #tsukineko Memento ink #distressoxide Scattered straw, Tattered rose, Worn lipstick, Barn door and Lumberjack plaid #copic #lawnfawn Hillside stencils #studiolight Mask 128 #card #cardmaking #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadecards #diycards #sssigchallenge

Today, I have a shaker card and coordinating shaker tag featuring the new @alexsyberiadesigns Snowflake layering die, which I combined to the cute bunny from the new Falala friends stamp set, as well as the Falling snow stencil which I used to create a bookeh effect in the background of the card. For the sentiment, I used the new Christmas sentiments set. #alexsyberiadesign Snowflake layering die, Christmas sentiments, Falala friends and Falling snow stencil #tsukineko Memento ink #distressoxide Tumbled glass, Salty ocean and Uncharted mariner #copic #versamark #wowembossingpowder #heroarts Unicorn pigment ink #3DFoam #card #cardmaking #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadecards #diycards #diecutting #christmas #christmascard #christmasinjuly #interactivecard #shakercard #tag

Today, I'm showcasing again the new Festive poinsettia from @alexsyberiadesigns. I just love this stamp set, just like any floral from Alex Syberia Designs. The flower is just the most gorgeous poinsettia I've ever seen but the set also has other great elements, such as holy and pine branches, as well as amazing sentiments that can make great focal points on a card. The set is so comprehensive and turns out so versatile! For today's card, I wanted to create a dramatic look, with lots of contrast between the flower and background. Also love how the big sentiment from the new Christmas sentiments stamp set is nested in the center. I really love how the card turned out and I hope you like it too. #alexsyberiadesign Festive poinsettia and Christmas sentiments #tsukineko Memento ink #inkadinkado Masking paper #distressoxide Black soot #copic #copicliner #versamark #wowembossingpowder #card #cardmaking #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadec...

My big Summer break is in one week from now and all I can say is I'm obsessed with vacations. This has inspired me this card last week end, with a mashup of many brands and sets which I listed below. The sentiment is in French and gives a definition for Holidays: Synonyms: Well-being, freedom, rest 1- A moment for oneself, free time, where nothing else matters but the urge to lay back, get carried away, take time for oneself and others, stop time and take a break 2- Make people smile and make people happy, wishing for never ending vacations 3- Enjoy, fully live the present moment Products used: Sentiment: Definitions estivales Les ateliers de Karine Girl with suitcase: Cheeky travels The Greeting Farm Girl on the beach: Beach vibes The Greeting Farm Speech bubble detail: A birdie told me Lawn Fawn Suitcase: Lunch box die Simon says stamp (retired), Cobblestone bold prints Hero Arts (outside pattern), Arrexmas Lora Bailora (inside pattern), Let's toast pull up tab Lawn Fawn (not...

I'm a true Christmas lover, so today's post is a tribute to Christmas, in a way. I truly love Christmas and look forward to it from December 26th, but when it comes to cardmaking, I really prefer to follow the seasons, so Christmas in July is not really my thing, or I thought! But when you're given such a beautiful release to play with, it no longer matters that it's 36°C outside (even if you have to hot foil!). Thank you @alexsyberiadesigns for having me as a guest designer on this beautiful release. I had an amazing time creating all of the cards and in particular this mini album, which is also a sort of tribute to the brand, as it has so many sets from the previous releases. Front and back covers   For the front and back cover, I used the new Festive poinsettia set, with some mirror stamping for the back cover. When I say mirror stamping, I have to explain what that is for me (LOL). If like me you struggle to get a crisp image with mirror stamping, I have a little tr...
