Hippo Birdie to you! :)

Hi to everyone!! 
I've been so busy these days.. but today i'm back with a super colorful birthday card! :)



I really love this hippo by Lawn fawn, and it's so funny with the coordinate sentiment! I used two mini set to create this card: "Year two" and "Year four". 
Mini sets are amazing because they have a principale image and then some "accessories" like these litltle balloons or these presents that really give you the possibility to create lots of scenes and designs!! :)
Yesterday at the supermarket i bought some new watercolor pencils and i was so excited that i have to try them!! That's because my card is super colorful!! 
These baloons are fantastic.. they create a super cool party look to all the projects!
I added some Glossy Accents to all of them to create a super shiny look and give them some cool texture and dimension! I also used lots of foam tape to create 3 different level of balloons.. hope you can see it in my picture that they really seem to blow away!! 
And do you know that at Lawnscaping Challenge blog there's a Birthday Celebration?! It's their 100th challenge so.. let's partying!! :)

We belong..together!

Hi there!! 
This week I really had very little time so I made this cute tag with my new Lawn Fawn stamp set "Milk and Cookies"!!
It' super easy and simple but I think it's so sweet with some Valentine's treats! I love making cookies, mini-pies or just buy some candies for Valentine's day! 


Maybe it's not so easy to see in this picture, but it has a super cool scallop edge that I made using some acetate and LFscallop circles stackables.
Now that I have tags.. I have to make some Chocolate chip cookies!! I think i'll try some recipes by Martha Stewart...her cookies seem so yummy and delicious!! ( Click here to see all the recipes I found!)
And you? What's your favourite Valentine's treat?!

Monsters Universe!!

Hi to everyone!!
Today i'm so excited to show you this monsters party banner that i made!

Yay!!! New Lawn Fawn stamps!! I'm so happy!! :) I love these cute monsters!! 
For this banner I wanted to try a new technique.. I'have never colored with distress inks before.. and I like a lot this soft effect that they created, because my monsters turn out so cute!!!:)
The green one is my fave and the lightblue one ... it is actually a biscuit! ahah! It's from another set called"Milk and Cookies", but I turned it into a sweetie monster!
I love that funny face included in the set, it seems like a little antenna here!Then I used the cookie plate to create some celestial orbits.. and the party hat to add some meteorites!!
I had so much fun with some masking techniqe too.. in fact some monsters are cover the orbits, while the central one is playing hula hoop! ahah!
I really love spending part of my free time to create cute scenes with these stamps!!
oh.. and I discover the acetate.. I don't know ..is it its name?!  I love it, I think it's the perfect final touch  ( with a cute little bow - yeah..it's Lawn Fawn trimmings!! )...  it's so clear and bright ..it really beautifies my project! :)

I hope you like it as much as i do!! :) And thank you so so much for stopping by today! 
Have an amazing week! :)

Happy tag! :)

Hi to everyone!!
Here are some little tags that I made with Lawn Fawn stamps!


I love creating cute and simple tags and I love stamping these little critters by Lawn Fawn with SSS black ink and combine them with some red cardstock because together they look fantastic! 
I don't have many colored cardstock and when I made lots of tag I usually don't use distress inks because blending well still take me a lot of time! So I always create a different and cute background with others little stamps ... so every tag is original and unique!   


 Isn't so cute this little hippo?! :)
 Here I added some simple and clean clouds with Memento drops ink.
 This hippo is by LF set called "Year Four" and these clouds are from "Into the woods".


 I love this cute balloons that bring presents!! 
These balloons are from "Year Four", this little elephant is from "Love you tons" and these gift boxes are from a festive set called "Winter Gifts".


For this one I used two Lawn Fawn stamp set: "Critters in the forest" and "Into the woods". I created this background with the Hello foxy sentiment and some Memento drops inks in two different colors to make the sky and the grass! :)

I hope you like my tags and thank you so much for stopping by today!! :)
