Test - Some cards I made...

This is a test to see if I can use my blog again... You can see the original posts here.

Cards I made this week:

I think Rainy bear from Bugaboo stamps is really sweet!!!!!!!! When I've got it, I printed and colored it and today I made a card with it. (I'm happy I printed it last week because my printer is not working now, don´t know why). I colored it with acuarelable pencils and mounted on a light blue circle in which I emboss some drops with a Fiskars plate (raindrops). I used a sky dp from Folia, a stripe dp from my Russian brand here and some cardstock in yellow. Then I used a light blue-turquoise gingham ribbon and a couple of buttons. I also made some faux stitches with an extrafine blue marker. The sentiment is a Create with TLC.

In some challenge blogs the theme is Mother's day and although in my country we celebrate it in October (yes, October...) I wanted to make a card and now I'm ready to send it to my mom when the time comes!!! The image is a ChiChi Memories one. I colored with acuarelable pencils but I worked a lot in the hair as this is Make it colorful challenge for this week. I have to say is very treaky to do it with acuarelable pencils.... first I did as always do, but after words didn´t look as I wanted so I have to use the black pencil but no water this time. I'll tell you a secret, I colored the image first not knowing which paper I would use and it was a little hard to find the papers later... I used two different dp (or printed) papers, a lace and a ribbon and a flower as embellishments. I'm learning to chose everything forehand and then coloring the image, but this time I didn´t do it in that order and took me a while to finish my card!

ChiChi Memories: sketch #30 and CCM image
