Embrace this moment

... Because, who knows, it could be snowing tomorrow As I woke up to white roofs this morning I felt the urge for an overly Spring card! You must think this is nothing as many of us are hit by a cold wave and snow but you have to know that this is our first snow episode of the year, so that makes it even crazier. Anyways, hope you appreciate the Spring vibes too #sweetnovemberstamps Flutterbee Skye and Tullia #pinkfreshstudio Butterflies #heroarts Clouds and grass scenic stencil #clearlybesotted Freshly cut stencil #mftsencil Rolling clouds #tsukineko Memento Tuxedo black ink #inkadinkado Masking paper #distressoxide Rustic wilderness and Twisted citron #copic #card #cardmaking #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmarkerofinstagram #cardmarkersofinstagram #handmadecards #diycards #onelayercard #slimelinecard #sssigchallenge

Let's eggs-ercise! and Your are eggs-traordinary!

Hello crafty friends! Today I'm back on the @crafty_meraki blog with not one project but two. Both projects are slimline cards featuring two of the new #merakicheer stencils released last week: Funny bunny and Egg hunt For these projects, I also used a bunch of other products! To start the first card, I die cut the Crafty Meraki View from my window slimline die from white cardstock. I actually did partial die-cutting, just cutting the bottom window and leaving a bit of space above the window. The window will be the rabbit den. I then used the My Favorite Things Outside the box grass die to create a line above the den. I then blended some Distress oxide Twisted citron and Rustic wilderness on the grass edge and then from top to bottom, I blended some Vintage photo, Ground espresso and Black soot   Next, I stamped the rabbits, the egg basket and the baby toys, from the Crafty Meraki Don't worry be hoppy and Oh baby stamp sets, on a piece of cardstock, colored the images with cop...

Home sweet home

I managed to play with the @coloradocraftcompany Mouse house, illustrated by Kris Lauren @pretty.little.lines, over lunch today and made this clean and simple card colored in no time, thanks to my new favorite medium, aka the Karin brushmarkers pro For once I thought I would use the coordinating dies and add even more dimension with 3D foam   #coloradocraftcompany Mouse house #heroarts Intense black ink #karinmarkers Brushmarker pro #3dfoam #sakura Gelly roll pen #card #cardmaking #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmarkerofinstagram #cardmarkersofinstagram #handmadecards #diycards #spring #springcard #sssigchallenge  

Happy life

Today's card is the result of my first time with my new Karin Brushmarkers pro. I think I'll need more practice to use them better, but I'm already super happy with the result. The markers are really great to use. I had wanted to buy them for a very long time and I'm so glad I finally did. I just love the intensity of the colors! It was also a great opportunity to finally use the beautiful Happy peony stamp set from @coloradocraftcompany illustrated by Kris Lauren @littleprettynotes that I've had for a few weeks now   #coloradocraftcompany Happy peony #heroarts Intense black ink #karinmarkers Watercolor brushmarkers pro #distressink Picket fence reinker #card #cardmaking #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadecards #diycards #sssigchallenge #watercolor #watercoloring
