New DT at - Dutch Dare Card Challenges (DDCC) - Birthday Wishes

Hi everyone,

I have a very exciting news to share with you. I have been invited to join a wonderful DT team at Dutch Dare Card Challenges. I am very excited about that new opportunity. The first challenge that I have joined is their Birthday Wishes challenge. The sponsor for this one is Saturated Canary. I love their images, and I used the one I have in stash - Ava. She is so cute!!!

I colored the image using Prismacolor Pencils. 

The requirement from my client, my daughter that is, was to use as little pink as possible. Somehow, she and her friends dislike pink. Even thou they are very girly, they do not wish to be associated with barbie-like girls who love pink. Teens now a days...

Anyways, I hope you like my card and will join DDCC challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,

Maria

School is starting soon

Hi everyone,

I can't believe it. The summer is almost over. Soon, it will be time to go back to school.

This year, my youngest daughter is starting 1st Grade and my older daughter starts middle school. Big changes in my house )))

To celebrate this time of year for them, I created this card, using Some Odd Girl Stamp and following their sketch. I so much enjoyed coloring this one and putting it together.

I used scraps of paper I had from MME collection, washi tape, a button from Purple Pumpkin and the image itself - Bookish Tia. Ain't she wonderful?! I think so!!!

I'm entering this card into following challenges:
Some Odd Girl - Sketch
Melonheadz Friends - Back to school
Creative Inspiration Paints - Back to school
OSAT - Back to school
Paint Your World - Дама сдавала в багаж
Зроби Сама - Листівки до школи

CWLC# 54 - Something Sweet / Солоденька

Hi everyone,

It's Monday again and I have a card to show you. I have been very busy this weekend, not just cleaning up the house but also making some cards. OK! I'll show them to you. One at a time. ))))

Today, we have a very nice challenge over at Created With Love Challenges. The theme is - Something Sweet. I bet you that everyone of you does love something sweet, even if it's just a sweet strawberry, maybe even dipped in chocolate. AHA! I knew it. We are sponsored by Limited Runs this time around and I created a card using their cute image - Button Cupcake. I kind of liked the idea to put buttons on a cupcake. Cute! So, here is my card:

I decided to do an easel card. I colored the image using Prismacolor pencils.

Hope you have a good start of the week!

Hugs,

Maria

I'm entering my card into following challenges:
Challenge 4 Everybody - Anything Goes
Glitter Sparkle Challenge - Not a square 

Stamps, stamps, stamps... / Штампи тут, штампи там ...

Вітання мої любі,

Сьогодні в Арт Клубі UA стартувало нове експрес завдання - Штампи тут, штампи там... У нас чудовий спонсор, Скрап Студія З Любов’ю і вона подарує переможцю гарний штамп. В роботі, а саме в дизайні листівки, яку ми робили на це завдання треба було використати два або більше штампи. У мене народилась ось така листівочка:

Я недавно купила набір штампві від МС - Сакура. Якось вони мені так сподобались, що я захотіла їх використати на цій листівці. Папір від ММЕ, який я затонувала чорнилами дістрес. Напис використала від Скрап Студії З Любов’ю. Дуже люблю саме цей напис.

Дякую, що завітали!

З нетерпінням чекаємо на ваші ідеї і листівочки в Арт Клубі UA.

Maria

CWLC #53 - Back to school

Hi everyone,

First of all I would like to thank you for leaving wonderful comments on my previous post and playing along our Blog-Hop with Created With Love Challenges for the last two weeks. We have some winners, so you can find that information here.
This week we have a new challenge for you. Yes. The Fall is just around the corner. I can't believe it. And I still have not filled out all of the paperwork for my little one to start First Grade. Job has been taking all of my time, which is bad. Getting back to the challenge. This week, the theme of the challenge is - Back to School. So, find that apple for your favorite teacher, create a little card to say thank you or maybe a book mark for that student, and join our challenge at Created With Love Challenges.
I will share with you a card I made, using an image from our sponsor - Cedar Chest Ariela with Heart. I colored the image using Prismacolor pencils and added some little details that remind me of that time of year.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,

Maria
