Anything Goes at QKR Stampede

Hello and happy Friday!!!!!!
Today we have a new and favorite challenge at QKR Stampede:

ANYTHING GOES

This is the card I made:

I used the image Flowers (digi. 14613) and colored it with Koh-i-noor aquarelable pencils. I am so in the mood for spring!!!!!!!!!! I used a circle die to cut the image and used some rhinestones to half frame it.

I used dp from my stash and some aqua green cardstock with Vines (quickutz) embossing folder. I made a card with a different fold: Half Cut Die, I found tutorials here, here, here and here.

To finish my card I used a flower ribbon and made a bow.

Photo Inspired challenge at QKR Stampede

Hello and happy Friday!
Today we have a new and fun challenge at QKR Stampede: COLOR PHOTO INSPIRED. We would like to see your greens!!!!!! This is the card I made:

And this is the picture to inspire:

I used Bathing Frog (digi 15616) and colored it with Koh.i.noor aquarelable pencils. I cut it with Labels1 Spellbinders and used the same shape for the green mat.  I don't know why the bath tub and the brush look blue, but I can tell you is a green shade ;)

I used Dots and Plaid green dp by Pingüino and green cardstock.  To embellish it I used a green gingham ribbon and made a couple of dots.

CAS welcoming cards

Hello, friends!
I hope you are having a great weekend.... I thought I would have some rest, but still very busy here.....
Some friends are organizing an event and for some people they will be giving welcome cards. They asked me to make them. Today I will show you the CAS ones, the yellow is for ladies and the blue for men. I made many, but I am showing one of each, because I forgot to take pictures to all of them together and already gave them away. In a few days, I will show you another batch, not so CAS...

I used yellow and turquoise cardstock, they are the colors of the Kazakh flag. I used an Alterations (Tim Holtz) embossing folder, (the sun is part of the Kazakh flag) I also used a round punch for the corners of the panels. The writtig is in Kazakh and Russian (oficial languages in Kazakhstan) and the translation is "Welcome". I only used yellow and turquoise ribbon and made a knot to embellish it.
