How to: dig deep in your stash

Coming back home after vacation can be annoying... everything is so grey, usual and dusty... Me no like it!

Anyway, I've spent a lovely time in Italy, both visiting towns and hiding in the 'middle of nowhere' agroturismos with wonderful food, wine and silence. No, I didn't take my Promarkers with me LOL

Staying in romantic mood, here's our new challenge at

and the theme is

DIG DEEP IN YOUR STASH

How many times you have found something with 'OMG! I totally forgot I have these!'? Yep, this is that kind of a challenge.

Our sponsor for this one is

So, I digged deep and said 'OMG! I totally forgot I have got this stamp!' And it was perfect for the wedding card I have been asked to make.

For this easel card I am using the rubber stamp 'Love me do' from Wee Stamps. And I have no idea why I've hidden it so well. It's colored with Promarkers, cut with Spellbinders die and distressed with distress ink.

The bow is also made from a piece of fabric I've been having like forever and the pearl button is from my Mum's stash.

There is no sentiment on the card, just the Bride and Groom's names and the date of wedding.

Hello everyone in this beautiful summer day!

To celebrate my REAL vacation start (after all these exams) I have made a cheerful card with an adorable stamp.

This card is made according to the sketch from Sweet Stop challenge (rotated):

This sweet image is from Wee Stamps and it's a freebie - you can grab it HERE. It is colored with promarkers and I added a paper piecing. I also made a frame using liquid pearls for the first time.

Here is a hand-sewed ribbon flower and a feather. The doily is also colored with promarkers.

The sentiment says 'Best wishes' and it is a card for a B'day.

Thank you for visiting my blog! I wish you all a sunny, crafty & inspiring week!

This card is for the following challenges:
