How to: have a winter romance

Valentine's Day is getting closer, so we have a special deal for you at

Love and Valentine's images chosen by the DT to highlight are 50% off! Yay!

I have chosen for you this sweet couple and I hope you will like that.

I am using the 'Winter romance' stamp from the 'Valentines Day and Love' section. It's colored with colored pencils and distressed with distress ink.

All the papers are scraps from other projects and the corrugated cardboard is upcycled.

There is no sentiment on the card, so it could be used not only for Valentines.

Thank you for visiting my blog!

How to: have some time together

Last weekend I was managed to make two cards, which seems unusual for me lately. I've had this stamp colored for a few weeks, but had no time to make a card with it. Until now.

I made this card according to the sketch of today's Bellarific Friday.

           

I have chosen the rubber stamp 'Emily and Ryan under the umbrella'. It's colored with colored pencils and distressed with distress ink.

I really like how this color combo came out.

The sentiment says just 'Me & you' and it was enclosed to this paper collection.

How to: not to get cold

Are you cold? Winter has come two weeks ago here and it doesn't give up. Lots of snow this year. That's why I have chosen this stamp for my today's new release reminder at

This birdie is sooooo funny! This time I used the 'Wrapped in love' digital stamp from the latest Sami Stamps collection.

The digi is colored with Promarkers, stamped with THIS set of stamps, distressed with ink and placed on a 3D foam.

For this card I used the Kaisercraft's collection 'Madame Boutique' - all of these papers are scraps from previously made projects. I also added a washi tape, some pearls and dies. All from my stash.

The sentiment says 'I'm cold without you'.

Thank you for visiting my blog!

And just let me remind you about the February challenge at Sami Stamps.

How to: give a great heart for Valentines

Today I would like to share a non-DT card (yay) I made for my friend's husband. For Valentines of course.

She asked for a 'little man with a huge heart', that's why I have chosen this digital stamp from Inky Impressions. Originally this 'Teacher's Pet Christopher' is holding an apple, but I made a special huge heart for him. The digi is colored with Promarkers and placed on a 3D foam.

All of the embellishments are from my stash and I thought it would be such a waste of paper after die-cutting the big heart, so I incorporated the 'negative', too.

There is no sentiment this time, but the card's occassion is quite obvious.
