We are crafting .... after a long time!

Hi everyone!! It has been quite a while since my last post and that's because I am just trying to follow one of my dreams! I will be having my own scrapbooking eshop!! It will be ready next week and I am simply sooo excited!Of course my free time is history but I love every step I take!

Tonight my son was feeling ... crafty and wanted to punch and stick so I thought it would be a great idea to make some simple cards all together!My daughter participated too!!She loves making a mess!LOL

So here we are crafting!!

 My daughter having fun ....

 This is Nikola's card.He decorated the back and the front with snowflake punch-outs

and we did some stamping too,

and here are the steps to make simple Christmas cards:

First I took a piece of cardstock and folded it, then I cut some patterned paper and a Christmas tree punch-out,

 I stamped on the tree,

 Used a 2nd punch-out

 Adhered  with some foams pads the trees and added some sequins,

 Finally assembled the card

Thank you for stopping by today!Enjoy the weekend!

Here comes September!

Hi everyone!!I woke up this morning

 by the sound or a small thunderstorm!LOL

September is here!!Autumn starts!!School , work, back to our routine!I am not quite sure if it is good or bad yet...Feelings are mixed up.My son will go to school,there is a trip ahead of us,still I wish I had more time to relax... The good news is that it will get a bit cooler and that means I'll enjoy sleeping!!

I can't sleep well when it's hot....

Today I would like to share with you a couple of cards I made for some cute little babies

I hope we'll all have a great month!Thanks for stopping by today!

A 'princess and the frog' card

Today I would like to share this cute little card I made for a fairy princess.

I was looking forward to using this Magnolia stamp for so long

 but all my projects lately were all about boys!

So here it finally is!Pink and girly!

This is how I made the card:

First of all I stamped and coloured the Tilda and then I cut the image.

My next step was to cut this nestability die I had also not used (I need to make a catalogue of what I have because sometimes I forget things in my bottom drawer )!! This die reminds me of a doily and that's why I had bought it in the first place.Then I painted it  with shell pink dabber

Cut my cardstock,scored it and used my flower corner punch

Used the same border punch to make a tiny garden and used my snow cap dabber on the edges

and then started putting them all together

a flower on top and a sentiment ... the card is ready!

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments...

They really mean a lot to me!

A birthday card for a boy!

I have a birthday card to share with you today! It is for a shining little star!

Happy birthday Stavro!

The stamps are from Hero arts and I have added some white tails with my Sakura pen.

This was a difficult week for us since my son had a flu....He had fever and was coughing all day and all night long.He is feeling better now and I hope that my daughter hasn't got the flu too....

 We will soon know!

Things were left a bit behind and I need to start creating!!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

A small card for a little miracle!

Oh my!July is here!!My vacations have started two days ago!!

I am so excited!

I will finally have enough time to do a lot of things in my house and hopefully relax too!

I have been trying to transform a small kitchen in the back of the house into a wardrobe. I suddenly found myself having so many clothes for my kids!Has this ever happened to any of you? Our relatives and friends had given us some,our grannies bought us lots ..... so they have piled up! I'll just donate the ones that don't fit them and make some more room to organise all our clothes better. I just hate ironing -it's getting really hot lately- and putting away clothes all the time!

We will be off to the beach in a while for a swim ,

 so today I would like to share a card I made yesterday for a little boy

It is so simple to make and I really loved the result! Thanks for stopping by! Have a lovely Sunday!

By the way ,today is the last day to subscribe for the Greek mini album swap!You'll have until the 23rd of August to post your mini album to your partner, so that we can all enjoy our holidays and create with no stress.Just post a comment in this topic http://scrapgreece.ning.com/forum/topics/july-and-august-2010-mini-1 I can't wait to get started!!

A belated birthday card to a friend ...

It has actually been a long time since the last time I made a card but here is one I finished yesterday and it's for a friend's birthday.Her daughter's birthday will be celebrated soon too, so I wanted to to incorporate 2 cards in one! I got inspired by the Whiff of Joy stamps Tutorials and inspiration  but the style of my card is quite different ... I used vivid colours and playful stamps! I even experimented with some copic markers I have, in order to colour the little fox...But I really need a lot of practice!!!
(plus many more copic markers!!!LOL)
