Use those office supplies

Hey, hey! Wow, can you believe September is here already? Eeeek, time's just flying by! I have a feeling that the year will come to an end before we (I) know it.

A new challenge started at The greeting farm today and this month we would like to see some office supplies on your card/project. Think paper clips, notepad paper etc. I found some long forgotten pink notepad paper and decided to use that.

I wanted to make an everday card, and I thought this sentiment from the Little fairies stamp set would be perfect for it, The flower is from the same set as well. They were stamped on a piece of white cardstock and then I used home-made cloud (sort of) mask to create "cloud" background.

To decorate the card I used a doily and some flowers and sequins from my stash. The butterfly was made with Mod Podge mold.

I hope you'll join our challenge this month. :)

Have a great day! xx

Have a fairy good day

Good morning my crafty friends. I hope you've been enjoying your week so far and that it's not too hot where you are. We went to my parents' for lunch on Saturday and on Sunday we were having a quiet and lazy day at home. It's pretty hot outside during the day, so we stayed in and played with the little one and I even managed to do some crafting. :)

Over the last couple of days I moved my craft place - again. I'm back to my original place. A couple of weeks ago I moved all my crafty stuff to Amadeja's room. I thought I would set my craft area here and that my hubby  could go to my "old" craft place, but it didn't work out. So I'm back at my old place. It took me a while to get everything back here, but now I have things more organized and I put all the sharp and small objects on the top shelves and/or in the closet/drawer to keep them away from my baby girl. She's in the phase where she grabs everything she can get her hands of and puts those things in the mouth, so we nee to be careful.

Anyways, back to crafting ... I decorated another brown lunch bag and made a gift bag out of it.

I used this gorgeous purple paper that I had in my stash forever. The orange paper are actually recycled envelopes. I din't want to over-embellish my bag, so I only used a piece of pearl string and 2 flowers to decorate it. In the center of the purple flower I put the adorable little fairy from The greeting farm. She's from the recently released Little fairies stamp set and so is the sentiment. These stamps come with matching dies and I used that to cut the image out of the paper. Colouring was done with Promarkers and pencils.

For the handles I used a gorgeous orange twill tape ribbon from Crafty ribbons.

So much from me today. Have a great day!

Hugs! xx

Little mermaids, little fairies and more

Hello my crafty friends. I hope you've been enjoying your weekend so far. I sure have. :) 

Remember the sheaky preview of the TGF stamp set I used on my card on Friday? Well, now that stamp set along with some other *very* cute stamps is available in the TGF store. You definitely want to check the blog to see all the previews and then also hop to the store to do some shopping. ;)

I played with Little fairies and Little mermaids stamp sets. They are SO cute and so versatile. I'll definitely be using them a lot.

First I want to show you a lollipop card I made with the Little fairies stamp set.

I love making these lollies and these stamps are perfect size for them. I used doily in the back and I made rosette with a piece of design paper that I had in my stash for a while. In the center of rosette I glued scalloped circle and white circle which I embossed with Cuttlebug's embossing folder. In the center on the circle I glued one of the cute fairies. I used Little fairies die cuts to cut the image out. . She's raised on foam pads for some extra dimension. I coloured her with Promarkers and pencils. I decorated the lolli with some gems and a piece of ribbon.

I'd like to enter my lollipop card to the following challenges:
Crafting by designs: Anything goes
Tuesday Throwdown: Fairies and fantasy

And this is the card I made with Little mermaids set.

I love this glittery paper.  I've had it in my stash for quite a while and now I finally decided to use it. I decorated the card wih some pearl string that I had in my stash, pearl flowers and some plastic shells that have been in my stash for quite a long time. They were actually part of some gift wrapping decoration and I decided to save them. I knew they would come handy one day. ;) Mermaids were coloured with Promarkers and pencils. I also used the matching die cut set to cut them out. Sentiment is part of the stamp set as well.

I'd like to enter my card to the following challenges:
Die cut divas: Make it glitter
Creatalicious: Anything goes (optional CAS)

So much from me today. Have a wonderful day!
Hugs! xx
