"I love you so mush!" Let's be lovely with lawn Fawn!

Update: This card received the "Top Mow-It-All" title! I'm so happy! thanks!! :)

Hi there!
Today I woke up super early in the morning to make a card!! It all was in my head for a while so i'm super happy to show you the final result! 
It's full of cuties and critters ..!

I love it! These set is not one of the newest but i think it's one of the most  beautiful ever released!! Those images are so cute and pretty, perfect for every card!! 

And yeah, I know it's not a Christmas project but since it seemed to be spring here in my town all the last days.. i was inspired!! ahah! Crazy weather..!! ahah!! But not worry, the cold days are finally arrived so i'm just dreaming about white and snowy landscape!! Hope this year the snow will arrive!! :)

Talking about the card.. few days ago i was doing the wardrobe and i found a polaroid photo ( yeah a super handsome "Abercrombie guy" and me!! ahah! - here at their store in Milan they usually take a photo with customers at the exit of the shop.. Do they do these also in the USA or in the other worldwide stores?! I was wondering!! ahah!) ... well i decided to use Lawn Fawn Rectangle Stackables dies to re-create my own polaroid!! 

Then I did super soft watercolors for the grass and the sky and i build my scene! I had so much fun stamping and coloring all those cuties!! :) The snails, the mushrooms, the sunflower.. i love them all! 

I used some liquid glue and some foam tape to give them some dimensions and i complete my card with the adorable sentiment!! :)

Hope you like it!! :)

Hi there and happy saturday!! :)
Today i have a sweet and cute card for my mom :) ihih!! 

These bears are the cutest!! Today i want them to be Polar bears so i just add some shades with my C1 copic marker and i blend it with the colorless blender.

I created my own backround drawing some pink stripes and i added some sequins, gold hearts and twine.

I glued my sentiment and the bears with some foam tape and voilà! :)

I also add some glossy accents on their super cute ..i don't know how to say in english.. long face?! I think that this make them super puffy and original! :)

Hello friend!

Hi there!!
Today I have a friendship / autumn / texture themed card to show you... here's what i created! :)

You know how much i love this cute foxy by Mama Elephant! It's super super pretty! :)

I also had so much fun creating my background and all the leaves!! 

For the background i decided to add some texture to my gold paper with glossy accents, yeah i just put little tiny dots of glossy accents here and there and i let it dry completely.. it turned out super original! Didn't it?! Love this new way to use my glossy accents, it gives a super shiny look, texture.. i love it!!

For my leaves i finally used a paper i got some times ago..it's like a super super fine paper made of corn! It's Wow!! I also used some vellum and some white paper inked with my distress ink "Antique Linen". Then I added a gold twine and a little bow and i glued my forest friend with some foam tape. Lots of dimension and details!!

Here's a closer look..

Love this gold twine i found at my local store, it's my fave and i always use it for so many projects!!
