Many Thanks

Hello, friends! Today is Friday!!!!
I can't see the fool moon, is cloudy and rainy, yesterday also was and for tomorrow the forecast says more of the same! Let's rejoice and be glad in the day the Lord made!
I would like to show you a card I made:

This is part of the set for the Stamps of the month progressive challenge at From the Heart Stamps. I colored the butterfly and th flowers with alcohol based markers and cut it out with scissors (not so bad!).

I also printed the sentiment and cut it with an oval die (Sizzix) and made the same for the green cardstock mat.

I used some of the scrap papers I have, because I don't have washi tape (that was the twist for the sketch challenge) and the sketch requires many strips in the background.

I didn't use any embellishment, I only made some faux stitches with a fine green marker and I used foami tape for the butterfly and the corner flowers to give some dimension.

CAS Thank You cards

Hello and happy Sunday!
As I told you, I have some friends with an event about to start and I am making some cards for them to give to their guests. Today, I will you show a few "Thank you" cards I made. The word "Rakhmet" is in Kazakh language and it's simply Thank you. For the cards I used scraps of paper I have and some cardstock to mat the scraps. The dp is by Alt (Central Asian designs).

Give thanks at QKR Stampede

Hello and happy FRIDAY!!!!!!!! Yes, finally Friday is here and I am happier today because of it. I can tell you that after the snow we had a couple of days ago, here is really cold and I hope to be home during the weekend to craft warm and not having to go outside :)
This week our challenge at QKR Stampede is GIVE THANKS. It can be a Thanksgiving or a Thank you project. Let's be thankful and take our supplies out to work!!!!!
This is my card for this week's challenge:

I used the digi Mouse (17806) and colored it with Koh.i.noor aquarelable pencils. I used glitter on the flower he is holding to to give a real look. I cut it with an oval die cut (Sizzix) and made the same for the green cardstock mat.

I  used Poligrafservis dp and green cardstock to mat everything.

For embellishments I used a green twine and tied a few strings in a knot. I also punched out some daisies and glittered them and used a tiny rhinestone in each of them. The sentiment is by Create with TLC.

I hope you like my card and feel inspired to do a project to give thanks.

SKdigis Inspirational Tuesday - Sketch #23

Hello and happy Tuesday!
Today we are having a new sketch and more inspiration at SKdigis. This is my card:

I love this mouse, he is so cute and fun.... I colored Grateful Mouse with Koh-i-noor aquarelable pencils and cut with Sizzix circle dies I placed it on a black circle mat cardstock.

I used Muresco papers and more black cardstock.

No embellishments today, but dimension was the thing in this card! This is one of my favorite techniques to use in cards... I glued the mouse, some cheese and the dialog balloon with foam tape (click to make the pic bigger and you can appreciate the dimension).

I hope you like my card and feel inspired to play with us.

The background paper is a chinese origami paper I've got as gift a while ago and thought it looks good with this image.

The sentiment is by Create with TLC and it´s perfect for the ocasion. The embellishment is a paper flower with a pearl in the center. Simple but I like it!

Thank you card (5)

Hello, hello! OK, here we go with the last thank you card for today... I told your early, I need to do many cards this days to say thank you to many people! For that reason I am going CAS.

I used an image by Spyder, this cute bear with the thank you sign. I colored it with Koh-i-noor acuarelable pencils. I used a green cardstock mat.

The dp is My mind's eyes, and I thinks is beautiful with those small glitter dots...

As embellishments I used a dark pink ribbon and made a double bow. Then I used some pink rhinestones to give some bling to the card.

Hi! It's me again with another CAS thank you card. I told you  I have to do many... this one is for one of my daughter's school teachers.

The image is by Bugaboo stamps and I colored it with Koh-i-noor acuarelable pencils. I placed it on a yellow cardstock mat. I sponged the borders with blue ink, and accidentally I sponged the boy's head a little bit (oops!) I also made some faux stitches with a fine blue pen.

I used blue cardstock and Burlap embossing folder (Tim Holtz - Sizzix), I also used yellow cardstock for the sentiment (Create with TLC).
