You are my happy

Hello bloggers,

I put together this card today. The die cut was a piece of kraft packaging and I went over it with green acrylic paint and gold poster colour. It was many months ago so I am not sure what I did. The layer below was done with an embossing folder with a blank oval in its centre. I positioned the die cut in a way that it would cover up the oval. 

 I will participate in the following challenges:

Hello dear bloggers,

Here is a card to show you made with a Unity cling stamp set. I coloured in the stamp with Faber Castell watercolour pencils. The paper on the left is from a Berger Paints magazine and on the right is designer paper from my stash.

 Hello dear bloggers,

Here is a card made with watercolour paper and some kind of smoosh with brush markers. The sentiment is a negative layered over black cardstock and propped up on recycled cardboard. I think I could have added something more to this card but let it be the way it is.

Dance like no one is watching...

 Dear bloggers,

Here is my card to show you today made with a Penny Black rubber stamp and my new  Tim Holtz embossing folder. The designer paper is from my stash and I have sponged the embossed cardstock as well as the sentiment with Spun Sugar distressed ink. The ribbon and pearls are from my stash as well. Wow, for a change I managed to list all of my supplies. Lol.

You're my cup of coffee

Hello dear bloggers,

Here is a card to show you today made with a solid rubber stamp. The stamp is too far away to get its name and thank you for bearing with me on that.

The die cut banner has been done with Camlin brush markers using the famous smoosh technique and there might have been an overdose of water there. Yet I was happy with the result.

The deep red layer below was done with acrylics. 

The fabric tape is from my stash.

For CAS(E) this Sketch

Hello lovely  bloggers,

This is my take for the challenge at CAS(E) this Sketch this week. My younger daughter, Aleeza (aged 12) did the layout for this card. The feathers have been made from Ferraro Rocher chocolate foil and I ran them through an embossing folder for added interest. The sentiment is handwritten and the gold border is from my stash. The background of the card has been done with yellow acrylic paint. I covered the front and back with yellow and it looks quite colourful. 

I will also take part in the following challenges:
