Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #429 (ft. Newton’s Nook Designs)

October 29, 2017October 29, 2017 Tatiana3 Comments

Happy Sunday!

I’m super excited to be a “Guest Sweetie” today over at the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge blog! Have you heard about them? This is such a SWEET Challenge Group! For each challenge they post an amazing cupcake photo and color combo for inspiration! Everybody likes cupcakes, right?

Orange, green and brown seemed to me a perfect color combo for an autumn thanks card! Plus it’s always so handy to have a few thanks cards in the stash! Playing around the autumn theme, I decided to use beautiful leaves from Newton’s Nook Designs Autumn Leaves die set as a focal point.

I die-cut some leaves and acorns from a watercolor cardstock along with a cute little tag from NND Tags Times Two die set and blended on top a few shades of Distress inks.

Assembling the card I added some dimension with a foam tape and finally finished with a matching brown sentiment from NND Cottage Garden stamp set!

Hope you like this sweet and simple card and make sure you pop over to the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge blog to see more amazing projects today! As always thanks so much for stopping by! I really appreciate your love and support!

Craftin Desert Divas Monthly Social Media Challenge – September 2017

September 29, 2017September 29, 2017 Tatiana2 Comments

Happy Friday and welcome!

I’m up on Craftin Desert Divas blog today with a card that is focused on dies and was inspired by the beautiful moad boad made for the CDD September Monthly Social Media Challenge! The current theme is autumn and it couldn’t be any perfect for this time of the year! Look at those gorgeous autumn colors and amazing images!

Of course, I had to play more with the fantastic dies from CDD September release. Those beautiful stitched trees come with Fall Border Dies set.

The idea was to create an autumn scene with a circle focal point and add a bit of dimension for some inserest. This project is super easy to recreate and doesn’t require mad coloring skills at all. My choice were Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers since I just love their bold vibrabt colors, but you can use any watercolor media you have on hand or even you Distress or dye inks. My win win combo with Zig markers is Strathmore Bristol paper and a small water brush from Pentel. I made a simple splotchy non perfect watercoloring and while the dies were drying I started working on the card base. I scored in half 11″ by 4¼″ piece of a red card stock and cut out an additional slithtly smaller white panel where I die cut a circle using Stitched In Circle Dies.

Finally assembling the card I adhered the watercolored trees directly to the card base using a foam tape and then popped on top the circle piece where I previously stamped a sentiment from Harvest Happiness stamp set. Of course, couldn’t skip a few matching sequins from Maple Leaves Sequins set.

That’s all for today! Thanks so much for stopping by and hope you’ll join Craftin Desert divas September Monthly Social Media Challenge for a chance to win some amazing prizes! All you need to do is to create a project inspired by the current mood board and using at least one CDD brand product!

Craftin Desert Divas Monthly Social Media Challenge – September 2017

September 1, 2017August 30, 2017 Tatiana1 Comment

Happy Friday!

It’s September, 1st and that means it’s time to jump into a new Monthly Social Media Challenge from Craftin Desert Divas! Of corse, the current theme is autumn! My favorite season!!! Maybe because it’s starts with my birthday!!! LOL!!!

As always CDD has an amazing mood board this month full of autumn colors and images! Perfect to bring you some inspiration for the autumn projects!!!

And here’s what I came up with!

I decided to stretch my dies and my choice was on Inside Scalloped Circle Die set that has some fabulos stitched leaves! So I die cut a bunch from a Bristol paper and then simply added a bit of color with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers!

To bring some contrast to the background I smooched Broken China Distress Oxide ink on a piece of a watercolor cardstock a few times heat setting each layer before applying the next one and arranged the colored leaves in a wreath. The circle die from Stitched In Circle Dies set helped me to keep a perfect round shape and a simple heat embossed sentiment from Floral Wreaths stamp along with a few black accents finished the card!

Happy Friday!

I’m super excited to bring you an inspiration project for the August Monthly Social Media Challenge from Craftin Desert Divas! I love the bright summer colors we have on this month’s amazing mood board that you can see below.

And here’s what I came up with!

Inspired by the amazing colors and images from mood board, I made this card with a summer twist. I chose a cute ice cream truck from Happy Trails stamp set and added a fun shaker window on the background filled with tiny colorful confetti that remind me so much yummy sprinkles.

I also created my own patterned paper to put on the right edge ofthe card base by stamping and coloring the ice cream stamps from the same Happy Trails set.

That’s all for today! Thanks so much for stopping by and hope you’ll join Craftin Desert divas June Monthly Social Media Challenge for a chance to win some amazing prizes! All you need to do is to create a project inspired by the current mood board and using at least one CDD brand product!
