happy birthday - sretan rođendan

Today I'm sharing Milka's ADORABLE CAS one layer card using Chameleon and Croatian Sentiments (for my non Croat speaking folk sretan rođendan means happy birthday).

ti si super

Hello!

TGIF people!!! phew! It's a pretty awesome Friday for me because my kids are on Easter holiday which means no school next week and I could catch up with everything now that we are all over the flu!

Here's a card I created using our Patterns for Him, Croatian Sentiments, Jungle Baby and I Got This stamp sets. The speech bubbles are a freebie I drew up.

I stamped the chevron pattern onto green cardstock and adhered it with foam dots for some dimension.

I added some glitter glue over the arrows, hearts and word SUPER. I also added a little watercolor over the sentiment. 

Also I'm not sure if I shared this simple and gorgeous card by Pamela using our Roses stamps set.

Have a great weekend!

thanks + birthday card

Hello!

It's Friday and usually I'm relieved BUT it's birthday weekend madness at my home so I will be cooking, baking, cleaning, crafting......straight through!!!! My daughter Mia's birthday is officially on Sunday and my husband's on Monday...so.......wish me luck!!!

Today I'm sharing Ange's super SWEET and simple card using the background circles from our Jungle Baby stamps set...I just love that 3D look of stamping a pattern onto the cardstock and over die cuts!

And yesterday I shared a card I made for my mama...it was her birthday yesterday....she loves flowers and the colour yellow...and with a little inspiration from Pinterest this is what I came up with. I used our Daffodils and Croatian Sentiments stamp sets. I added subtle glitter to the daffodils and it's a shame the camera doesn't pick it up...it looks so pretty in real life! :)

Hope you all have a lovely weekend!

black is the new black

Hello! How you doin?!! (I totally did that in my Joey voice!!)

I never really used black in my cards except for Halloween and probably wouldn't have started if it weren't for this chalkboard art obsession of mine!!

For this card I used Geometric Patterns and Croatian Sentiments. I also used some gorgeous pattern paper (which I tend to hoard!!!) The polka dots on the butterfly is from my very first JD stamp set which is not available now but I think I'm going to add these polka dots to a new sets...I LOVE polka dots!! you need them in all sizes! :)

Have a great day! xo

wedding card and winner

Hello! How ya'll doing?? :)
This card too was inspired by someone and that someone would be Iwona and this card! LOVE the colours, layout, chalkboard art! So here's a wedding card I created.

My heat gun is broken so I used my white gel pen and traced over the stamped sentiments...not perfect but still cute! :) I used our Geometric Patterns, I Got This, Special Day and Croatian Sentiments stamp sets.

And now to announce the winner of our Noah's Ark stamp set giveaway.....

Alice inspired!

Hello!!
Hope you all are having a lovely day! I'd like to wish all Croatian's a Happy Independence Day! :)

I'd like to share a card I created that was inspired by Alice's GOR.GE.OUS card below!!! Her colouring blows me away!!! Alice used our Suzi stamp set.

For my card I used our Double Trouble, Geometric Patterns and Croatian Sentiments stamp sets. I used my Graph'it markers to colour Jakov (the boy from our Double Trouble set!).

I stamped diamond and polka dot backgrounds onto cardstock and cut out banners..the little polka dots are from my Croatian Sentiments stamp set....added a gem and one of my handmade buttons. The sentiment means Happy Birthday! :)

Have a great day! xoxo

Happy World Card Making Day!! & a giveaway!

Hello and Happy World Card Making Day!!!
Of coarse I've got a card for you today and it's a little sneak peek of our up coming release! Judith has just received brand new JD stamps and sent them off to me, the DT and our special Guest Designer!! (I printed out the squirrel since I don't have the actual stamps...I kept it the same size as the stamp).

The triangles are from our Geometric Patterns stamp set and the sentiment is from my Croatian Sentiments stamp set which can be found at NB Hobby here in Zagreb. The sentiment 'volim te' means I love you!

And of coarse a little giveaway action is in order! :) I've got an extra Noah's Ark stamp set at home so if you're interested please leave a comment and I'll announce the winner on Tuesday! Good luck!

I'm popping in to share my card I made for a friend who needed a wedding card...it jump kicked my crafty mojo...this card doesn't have any stamping except for the sentiment which is from my Croatian Sentiments stamp set....I'm trying to use up some of my stash (pattern paper, etc.). But I wanted to share it because I found a great diy paper feathers tutorial on pinterest...go here to check it out!

to colour or not to colour

Hello!

Hope all is well!!

I had  to make a few cards for a friend....lots of weddings this summer!! :)

So here are two of them and for both I used our Pretty Peonies stamp set.

On this one I didn't colour...I stamped it with blue ink (chalk ink)...did some masking....then I tapped the ink pad onto my acrylic block and sprayed some water on it..then I took a small paint brush and added a touch of colour...very easy...for this set I also used our Geometric Patterns stamp set to make my background.

For this card I coloured the flowers with Graph'it markers. For the sentiment I used my newest Croatian sentiments stamp set.

That's it! :) Hope you all have a lovely weekend!

p.s. new JD release soon...it's a small one...but the next release will be bigger! :)

Čestitke/Congratulations

Hello!

Hope you all had a lovley weekend! :) I created this bright and colourful card using our Pretty Peonies stamp set...the sentiment is a sneak of one of our newest stamp sets which is in Croatian...it means congratulations. I did some masking...no colouring (for all those who don't like to colour!)....

Have a great day!
