Hello, crafty friends! I'm back today with another card featuring a very cute and recently released <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/new-arrivals/products/go-wild-4x6-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">Go Wild Clear Stamp Set</a> by <a href="http://gerdasteinerdesigns.blogspot.si/2017/04/guest-designer-welcome-to-world.html" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a> which turns out to be perfect for creating any adventure scenes with adorable animals. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And here is what I came up with for today:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LhuU7SWllr4/WPEaLETGeaI/AAAAAAAAA8g/fqwDd_WxBvYdcX03BIE9RRax0q-9zUc8wCLcB/s1600/image116.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LhuU7SWllr4/WPEaLETGeaI/AAAAAAAAA8g/fqwDd_WxBvYdcX03BIE9RRax0q-9zUc8wCLcB/s320/image116.jpg" width="283" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, this stamp set came also in handy for making newborn baby cards π</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started off by creating ink blended background and then spritzed some water on the panel to get the spots. Once this was done, I die cut a star on one side of the panel and added some false stitches on the other one. After placing a piece of design paper and the panel on the card base, I stamped a mouse, an elephant and balloons onto a piece of paper and colored them with my Copics. Then I put all the elements together and added the stamped sentiment. Since the card looked a little empty I added a butterfly and a cloud to fill in the empty space. And that's how this project was created π</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, I guess that's all for today π</div>

Hi there, everyone! <span style="text-align: center;">Hope you're doing well. Today I would like to reveal some great news I've been waiting to share with you for quite some time now. I'm really happy to announce that I'll be once again guest designing for my all time favorite </span><a href="http://gerdasteinerdesigns.blogspot.si/2017/04/guest-designer-wild-birthday.html" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a><span id="goog_1326399196"></span><span id="goog_1326399197"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/"></a><span style="text-align: center;"> π</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the next couple of weeks I'll be sharing with you some projects of mine featuring the recently released <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/new-arrivals/products/go-wild-4x6-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">Go Wild Clear Stamp Set</a> which is perfect for any adventure scenes with cute animals and a ranger. For today's project I wanted to use as many images from the set as possible, that's why I decided to go with a tunnel card. I practically reached my goal (and even used a bunny from <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/shop-clearstamps/products/hoppiness-4x6-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">Hoppiness Clear Stamp Set</a>), but in the end it turned out that an elephant was taking too much space on the card, so you will see him in my next project π </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And here is what I came up with:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AhhzFGZHx7w/WOf3ehDSt7I/AAAAAAAAA8Q/sGiDWIX3-XAIH_fVrCW-i2K8O5QhshSUQCLcB/s1600/image115.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="299" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AhhzFGZHx7w/WOf3ehDSt7I/AAAAAAAAA8Q/sGiDWIX3-XAIH_fVrCW-i2K8O5QhshSUQCLcB/s320/image115.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
To create this card I cut three windows in two panels and a card base and stamped the sentiment inside the card. All layers of the tunnel were colored with blue and green distress inks - like the sky and the grass, and, of course, spritzed with some water to get the spots. Then I placed all the characters on the layers which actually turned out to be the most challenging part of the project π</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To tell you the truth, it's been always hard for me to find stamps for creating cards for boys, but now with this great set it became just a piece of cake. Thank you, <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda</a>, for such a great design!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello, crafty friends! Hope you're doing well. That's true, I've been absent from here for already a month, but believe me I'm still crafting and currently working on making some crazy ideas of mine come to life π At the moment I would prefer to share these ideas only with some close friends of mine, but I promise you'll learn everything soon enough. For the time being, I would like to share with you my latest creation which I've been working on for the last couple of weeks:</div>

Hello crafty friends! I'm stopping by today to share with you a recent creation of mine featuring a recently released <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/products/hoppiness-4x6-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">Hoppiness Clear Stamp Set</a> by <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a>. And here is what I came up with for this time:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xaoLU84Az3o/WLcXoALU9tI/AAAAAAAAA7c/CYrU9fZKcSUbUVn4ZDWC9ZaielFwIGwggCLcB/s1600/image106.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="274" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xaoLU84Az3o/WLcXoALU9tI/AAAAAAAAA7c/CYrU9fZKcSUbUVn4ZDWC9ZaielFwIGwggCLcB/s320/image106.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This cheerful card will definitely come in handy for any birthday and is very easy to make.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now let's get right to 10 steps which will help you to create such a card:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. Start off by cutting 3 circles on your panel. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Once this is done, stamp different small images from <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/products/unicorns" target="_blank">Moody Unicorns Clear Stamp Set</a> around the circles leaving some space for a sentiment. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Mask these images off. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. Create an ink blended background and spritz some water on the panel to get the spots.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
5. Remove the masks and let the background dry for a while.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
6. Stamp bunnies from <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/products/hoppiness-4x6-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">Hoppiness Clear Stamp Set</a> onto a piece of paper and color them with any coloring supplies you prefer (I did it with my Copics).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
7. Once the panel is dry, color the images on it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
8. Add some ink on the card base as well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
9. Glue the panel to the card base and place the bunnies into the circles.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
10. Stamp a sentiment to finish off the card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Pretty simple, isn't it?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And once again these super cute bunnies helped us to create a new different project. Like I was saying, the range of use of this stamp set is extensive:)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope you liked my little inspiration.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I'm stopping by today to share with you another card of mine featuring a very cute and recently released <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/products/hoppiness-4x6-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">Hoppiness Clear Stamp Set</a> by super talented <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a>. And here is what I came up with this time:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nKsdJ-Vo-XM/WKey4_s-rvI/AAAAAAAAA6w/8IA_jJFBjyQTuU5_9UAfrJ_TWkO9MTuCgCLcB/s1600/image108.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nKsdJ-Vo-XM/WKey4_s-rvI/AAAAAAAAA6w/8IA_jJFBjyQTuU5_9UAfrJ_TWkO9MTuCgCLcB/s320/image108.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, this stamp set is perfect for making newborn baby cards. It includes a little bunny that can be used as a newborn baby boy or just add a self drawn bow and you'll get a girl π</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started off by creating ink blended background. First I colored the sky, then the bushes, and once I put them together, I spritzed some water on the panel to get these spots. Once this was done, I stamped bunnies and a butterfly onto a piece of paper and colored them with my Copics. After fussy cutting the images, I put all the elements together and stamped the sentiment. To finish off the card I added a couple of sequins on the front bush . </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And that's how this project was created π</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And for those who was patient enough to read through the first part of my post, I have a bonus shaker tag to share with you:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a7CMBVmMpxQ/WLAUmmR8t-I/AAAAAAAAA7A/eNZtlCA3i-c9_6Jopwii74Zg5ohT1wHmgCLcB/s1600/image109.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="314" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a7CMBVmMpxQ/WLAUmmR8t-I/AAAAAAAAA7A/eNZtlCA3i-c9_6Jopwii74Zg5ohT1wHmgCLcB/s320/image109.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hoppiness Stamp Set turned out to be a perfect one for creating tags, especially the ones that have a shaker element. Any bunny from this set would perfectly fit into the circle cut and you can make a tag for whatever occasion you like: Valentine's day, birthday, a thank you note, etc. Like I was saying, the range of use of this stamp set is extensive π</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, I guess that's all for today π</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks for stopping by! See you next time!</div>

Hello everyone! Hope you're doing well. Today I would like to reveal some great news I've been waiting to share with you for quite some time now. I'm really happy to announce that I'll be once again guest designing for my all time favorite <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a> π</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the next couple of weeks I'll be sharing with you some projects of mine featuring the recently released <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/products/hoppiness-4x6-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">Hoppiness Clear Stamp Set</a> which includes lots of super cute bunnies that are perfect for any project. Let's start with the first one. Of course, no one can resist putting these little cuties on love themed cards and today's card isn't an exception. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is what I came up for my Valentine this year:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cM_AbCqqMoE/WKW-dpIuZEI/AAAAAAAAA6M/1UuYsCYpjxMxYQgURzGKySx5m7Vjr9y5gCLcB/s1600/image105.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="293" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cM_AbCqqMoE/WKW-dpIuZEI/AAAAAAAAA6M/1UuYsCYpjxMxYQgURzGKySx5m7Vjr9y5gCLcB/s320/image105.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I started off by creating ink blended background. First I colored the sky, then grass, and once I put them together, I spritzed some water on the panel to create a super-duper effect that I like a lot. Once this was done, I stamped bunnies, a fence, and a butterfly onto a piece of paper and colored them with my Copics. After fussy cutting the images, I put all the elements together and stamped the sentiment. I added a couple of sequins to finish off the card. And that's how this project was created π</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well, I though that I should add some other present next to the card and decided to make a bookmark with the help of the same stamp set. And now, without further ado, here is my bookmark to hopefully give you some inspiration:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6O4NyHrk57A/WKW-ksLu4nI/AAAAAAAAA6Q/c2dNQCJpidkpwszNseqRZa7idZwyuKEUgCLcB/s1600/image107.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6O4NyHrk57A/WKW-ksLu4nI/AAAAAAAAA6Q/c2dNQCJpidkpwszNseqRZa7idZwyuKEUgCLcB/s320/image107.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Like I was saying, the range of use of this stamp set is extensive and I will try to show at least some of themπ</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope you liked my little inspiration. Thanks for stopping by! See you next time!</div>

Hello, crafty friends! Can you believe that it's already February? Yes, just a couple more months and we will be enjoying warm and sunny weather π Today, I would like to share with you a recent creation of mine that took a lot of time to make - a baby album for my son. To tell you the truth, this a typical case of the cobbler's children having no shoes π I make albums for everyone except for my family. So this time I've decided to change things a little bit π And now, without further ado, here is what I came up with:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ygw8aXcGdVs/WJ4eAJekTQI/AAAAAAAAA5o/opkq62YBmQ8t7yz4S9DjdJyeQb6fDVVHACLcB/s1600/album5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="315" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ygw8aXcGdVs/WJ4eAJekTQI/AAAAAAAAA5o/opkq62YBmQ8t7yz4S9DjdJyeQb6fDVVHACLcB/s320/album5.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is the picture of the very first page which was made in this album. Sweet Dreams collection by Scrapberry's made this album look so gentle and actually sweet:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oohAvjYCk5g/WJ4eRPK36nI/AAAAAAAAA5s/PYlpcmPueMwYCnP8k9myuYAw2XlgmdnZgCLcB/s1600/album4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oohAvjYCk5g/WJ4eRPK36nI/AAAAAAAAA5s/PYlpcmPueMwYCnP8k9myuYAw2XlgmdnZgCLcB/s320/album4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As you might have noticed, the album is made of paper only, but next time I intend to use some fabric as well. So stay tuned! π</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hope you've enjoyed today's creation! Have a nice day and thanks for stopping by!</div>

Hi there, everyone! I'm stopping by today to share a recent creation of mine which was inspired by <a href="https://www.gsd-stamps.com/products/hedgehog-smooches" target="_blank">January image</a> for Gerda Steiner's Monthly Progressive Challenge. These cute hedgehogs are a perfect image for a card to your special loved one. Of course, I couldn't resist putting them on one of my Valentine's Day cards. So here is what I came up with:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello, crafty friends! Welcome to my very first post in 2017! It's been really a while since my last post here. Well, to tell you the truth, I've been wondering for quite some time now if I should really keep writing my blog. A couple of weeks ago I decided to stop all this and just stick to my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/diana.sharapova/" target="_blank">Instagram page</a>, but still made up my mind to come back here from time to time and show you what I've been up to. Today I would like to share with you one of my New Year resolutions - baby albums. Yep, I've decided to fully dedicate myself to album making ... at least for this month. We have 8! babies coming this year among our family and friends, so it's high time to start making presents for them:</div>

Hello, crafty friends! I'm topping by today to share the latest creation of mine that features a couple of my favorite stamp sets by <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a> and <a href="http://www.neatandtangled.com/" target="_blank">"Neat & Tangled"</a>. I've recently had a chance to visit a workshop in Slovenia hosted by super talented <a href="http://art-dorota.blogspot.si/" target="_blank">Dorota Kopec</a>. This was definitely a great experience where we've learnt a couple of techniques used by Dorota in her works. So today's vintage card with non-traditional Christmas colors was created based on what we were shown at the workshop:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hi there, everyone! I'm back today with something new:) DIY envelope which might come in handy for your presents for the upcoming holiday season. This envelope is made from just one piece of design paper and you can actually fold one in less than 5 minutes. Still don't believe me? Then head over to <a href="http://gerdasteinerdesigns.blogspot.si/2016/12/diy-how-to-make-envelope-bonus-card.html" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs blog</a> for step-by-step tutorial:</div>

Hello, crafty friends! I'm stopping by today to share a recent creation of mine that features an adorable reindeer by <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a> that got wrapped up while preparing his Christmas gifts:) When I first saw this little cutie in <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/shop-digital-stamps/products/november-december-digitalstamp-bundle" target="_blank">November-December digital stamp bundle</a>, I knew for sure which scene I would place him in. So here is what I came up with:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">This reindeer is definitely so much fun to play with!</span></div>

Hi there everyone! I'm back today to share with you a card that lots of people want to know how to make. You are definitely right, it's a magic slider card, a card that will fascinate any child that receives one from you. And right now we'll try to pull back the shroud of secrecy on how to make such a breathtaking card:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3m4KEjYDSRE/WDtKvSwe8MI/AAAAAAAAA2Q/rlC8wWa-FL8Pwfj_37AhVpU5OUzg7TF8gCEw/s1600/image2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3m4KEjYDSRE/WDtKvSwe8MI/AAAAAAAAA2Q/rlC8wWa-FL8Pwfj_37AhVpU5OUzg7TF8gCEw/s320/image2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
To tell you the truth, the magic slider card is a very easy thing to make. You can find lots of video tutorials and written instructions on the Internet nowadays, but I would like to share with you the one that I came across a couple of weeks ago and loved how clearly everything was explained there. So let's start with the link to this tutorial (although it's in Russian, the pictures will give you a clear idea of how the whole trick looks like): <a href="http://sovushkaslavia.blogspot.si/2016/11/blog-post.html" target="_blank">http://sovushkaslavia.blogspot.si/2016/11/blog-post.html</a>. So the main secret is to use two layers - stamp the same image on the acetate and on the cardstock and color it.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
And now let's try to put the whole process into step-by-step instructions:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Stamp your chosen image once on the acetate and once onto the white cardstock/watercolor paper. Color in the image on the paper as you wish. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Put aside both images for a short time to dry.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Once the image on the acetate is dry, place it over the colored one so that it lines up precisely. Hold it in place with a washi tape, and trim the acetate to fit the card. Do this carefully so that the acetate doesn't move off the colored image. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. When this part is done, apply Salty Ocean Distress Ink onto the frame and the background of the white cardstock and spritz some water on them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5. It's now time to start to put the whole card together. Glue the colored image on the card base and the acetate on the frame. This should be done very carefully so that both images go perfectly together. Once this is done, glue the frame on the card base leaving one side unglued/open for a piece of white paper to separate both images and work magic.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
And now let's show everything in motion:)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can see that the image is plain:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But when you slide it, it becomes colored: </div>

Hi there, crafty friends! I'm back today with another card featuring 2 very cute and fun stamp sets by <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a>. Here is my juggling Santa to hopefully cheer you up and bring some more inspiration on the first day of the week:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kkjoPWy8Iyo/WDHvfpxsmAI/AAAAAAAAA1U/acwH9mZj-9QLA0uUq-0mmMn7uPwDmmwnQCEw/s1600/image89.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kkjoPWy8Iyo/WDHvfpxsmAI/AAAAAAAAA1U/acwH9mZj-9QLA0uUq-0mmMn7uPwDmmwnQCEw/s320/image89.jpg" width="317" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started off my card by stamping cheerful Santa from <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/fall-winter-clear-stamps/products/508-snowangel-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">"Snow Angel"</a> stamp set onto a piece of paper, colored him with my Copics and fussy cut him leaving snow angel part aside. Once this was done, I stamped 5 boxes of presents from <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/fall-winter-clear-stamps/products/up-on-the-housetop-4x6-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">"Up On the Housetop"</a> clear stamp set, colored and fussy cut them as well. And then comes the most interesting and important part of the whole card - the front panel. I first stamped and heat embossed the snowflakes and after that started to apply different Distress Inks onto the panel. Once finished, I spritzed some water on the panel and adhered the fussy-cut images to the foam for more dimension. To finish off my card and to add some contrast to these vibrant colors, I decided to add "Merry Christmas" sentiment in black color. To be honest, I was very happy how everything turned out in the end.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A couple of days later I've made up my mind to use the same technique and colors on another card of mine featuring <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/holiday-digital-stamps/products/naughty-puppy-digital-stamp" target="_blank">"Naughty Puppy"</a> - November's image for monthly progressive challenge over at <a href="http://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">gsd-stamps.com</a>. So here is what I came up with:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ui7Xx8_j3lQ/WDIJHnPzFzI/AAAAAAAAA1c/gM85k1w48xUGiqf8ayvwhAGluU5ZES0zgCLcB/s1600/image90.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="285" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ui7Xx8_j3lQ/WDIJHnPzFzI/AAAAAAAAA1c/gM85k1w48xUGiqf8ayvwhAGluU5ZES0zgCLcB/s320/image90.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Oh, these vibrant and contrast colors can really do their magic, don't you think?:)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello everyone! Sorry for being absent for quite a long period of time, but it's been really busy here for the last couple of weeks without a chance to sit and create something new. Luckily, I've got those days behind and I'm fully ready to share with you some of my recent creations. And I would also like to mark my return with the big news I've been waiting to share with you for quite some time now:) About a month ago I've been contacted by a super talented Gerda Steiner who asked me if I wanted to do a guest spot for her. And what do you think was my answer?:) Today my <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/blogs/gerda-steiner-designs/non-traditional-use-of-fall-stamp-sets" target="_blank">first Guest Designer post</a> went out into the world and I'm super excited to share this news with you!</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I want to show you 2 very wintery cards featuring the adorable <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/fall-winter-clear-stamps/products/cheerful-hedghog-4x6-clear-stamp-set">"Cheerful Hedgehog"</a> and <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/fall-winter-clear-stamps/products/fall-mice-4x6-clearstamp-set">"Fall Mice"</a> stamp sets. You won't believe, but these stamp sets are so versatile that you can easily use them for your Christmas cards. So, let's start ...</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
For my first card I chose 2 little cuties and asked them to trim a Christmas tree:)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-viFXD0srbNU/WCj8YEZ9jxI/AAAAAAAAA00/Yw8HG2VBLi4iWwFXrydbaYI34vdB05uOQCLcB/s1600/image88.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="280" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-viFXD0srbNU/WCj8YEZ9jxI/AAAAAAAAA00/Yw8HG2VBLi4iWwFXrydbaYI34vdB05uOQCLcB/s320/image88.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started off by creating ink blended sky with setting sun. After this I used texture paste and added some stars and falling snow to create a perfect winter scene. While the background was drying, I stamped the hedgehogs onto a piece of paper and colored them with my Copics. Then I die cut the rest of the elements and colored some of them with Distress Inks. The only thing which was left was to put all pieces together. Once it was done, a huge part of the work was finished. Except for some last touches:) The first and the main one was to draw a string of lights my hedgehogs are going to trim a Christmas tree with - checked; second - to draw some shadow under everything and everyone who is staying in the snow - checked; and last but not least - to add some Wink of Stella to stars, street lamp light and snow - checked. And that's how the first car was created. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Second card was done by following the same steps, except this time I went for heat embossing instead of applying texture paste and replacing one hedgehog with a mouse.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello, crafty friends! Hopping onto the blog real quick to share a recent creation of mine featuring one of the most amazing stamp sets I've had a chance to work with - <a href="http://gsd-stamps.com/collections/shop-clearstamps/products/fall-mice-4x6-clearstamp-set" target="_blank">"Fall Mice"</a> by <a href="http://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a>. The stamp set includes 4 different mice which are just ready for fall. For today's card I've decided to choose a mouse which can hold a pumpkin, a pear and lots of other stuff that you might give him. And here is what I came up with:</div>

Hi there, everyone! It's been quite a while since I last wrote anything here. Well, it's been busy here for the last week, plus I've somehow managed to fall ill. Now when all this is behind me it's time to get back to crafting. I'm currently working on some new projects, something that I've never done before and here is a small part of what I'm up to now:<br />

Hello, crafty friends! I'm stopping by today to share a recent creation of mine which was inspired by <a href="https://gsd-stamps.com/collections/shop-digital-stamps/products/parachute-piggy-digital-stamp" target="_blank">September image</a> for Gerda Steiner's Monthly Progressive Challenge. This cute image is perfect for any occasion and can be combined with a variety of sentiments. For today, I've decided to go with a birthday card and make the little pig to take a jump with his parachute to surprise his friend with a bouquet of flowers. Here is what I came up with:</div>

Hi there, everyone! Hopping onto the blog real quick to share some recent creations of mine featuring one of the most amazing stamp sets I've had a chance to work with - <a href="http://gsd-stamps.com/collections/shop-clearstamps/products/fall-mice-4x6-clearstamp-set" target="_blank">"Fall Mice"</a> by <a href="http://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a> and <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/bb-magical-dragons" target="_blank">"Magical Dragons"</a> by <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/" target="_blank">MFT</a>. Since it's already September (where did summer go?), let's start with the set that includes 4 different type of mice which are just ready for fall. For today's card I've decided to use 3 of them: the one which is pushing a wheelbarrow, a little mouse sitting inside, and the cutie which is holding a pumpkin in his hands. And here is what I came up with:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pvbD6BncKXk/V8lnWq2U7zI/AAAAAAAAAxY/170f3J1ouLsZgd3fmsJnQl9fqoxkFl8yACLcB/s1600/image71.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="277" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pvbD6BncKXk/V8lnWq2U7zI/AAAAAAAAAxY/170f3J1ouLsZgd3fmsJnQl9fqoxkFl8yACLcB/s320/image71.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Moving further onto magical dragons ... Ain't they super cute?<br />
When I first came across this stamp set, I knew I had to have it. This cuties will definitely give you lots of opportunities to create your own fairy tale, of course, with only happy ending;) And now, without further ado, here is what I came up with for my very first card:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-e8gXcjJG1T4/V8lnfcWj0GI/AAAAAAAAAxc/WvzABEtnip4FaqbT8Wq4Mo5f_UoH3C0TwCLcB/s1600/image70.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-e8gXcjJG1T4/V8lnfcWj0GI/AAAAAAAAAxc/WvzABEtnip4FaqbT8Wq4Mo5f_UoH3C0TwCLcB/s320/image70.jpg" width="267" /></a></div>

Hello, crafty friends! It's been quite a while since I last wrote anything here. Well, it's been really busy here for the last couple of days, but luckily I've got some time to hop onto the blog to share with you some of my recent creations. Today I would like to show you a card featuring the newly released stamp set <a href="http://gsd-stamps.com/collections/shop-clearstamps/products/cheerful-hedghog-4x6-clear-stamp-set" target="_blank">"Cheerful Hedgehog"</a> by <a href="http://gsd-stamps.com/" target="_blank">Gerda Steiner Designs</a>. I simply fell in love with these cuties once I saw them and couldn't but purchase them that very day. These guys will definitely give you an opportunity to create lots of different scenes on your cards. And now here is what I came up for my very first creation:</div>

We also offer SVG stamp outlines for .99 only, they work perfectly with your cutting machine. You must have a program that opens these files. This is a great alternative to coordinating dies and much less expensive.</div>

For today's project I've decided to go with "Your Wish" clear stamp set and create a shaker card! First, I've created a frame and made the background with Distress Inks and a blending tool. After it dried, I white heat embossed the sentiment in the top right corner and sprinkled some water and white paint on the whole background paper piece to make it look like a starry night sky. I then colored a genie with her cute little friend with Copic markers and then placed them on the card. To finish off my project I added some sequins and foam tape on the background - and it was done! :)</div>

For today's card I've decided to get back to ink smooshing - a technique that I haven't used for quite a long time now. I first smooshed the panel with Picked Raspberry distress ink, let it dry and then adhered it on the patterned paper panel. All stamps were colored with Copic markers and fussy-cut so that they can be placed in the middle of the scene. Once it was completed, I stamped a sentiment onto the card and then added sequins to the trees.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
