Hello Crafters!
even though Halloween is not really an Italian celebration, it has always fascinated me! Maybe because for several years I have had the fortune to celebrate it in the US... maybe it is because of the exaggerated presence of orange (which I loooove!), whatever is the reason... today over the CAS-ual Friday blog you will find a funny Halloween themed card!

I used the Spooky stamp set and few papers from G45 to create this interactive card. I layered few pieces of paper and I also used the stamps to decorate few circles. I used the spiderweb and the circles (always from the Spooky stamp set) to create a tone-on-tone effect and I used Versamark ink to do so.

The sentiment is a small gap that opens, and booo!!! A little ghost mounted on soft paper peeks out, and is held closed with a small magnetic strip that I applied in the layers of paper.
As the sentiment state, I also wanted to play a little and have fun bit by creating this very interactive card!


I hope you will like the result, as always for any comments, questions, suggestions etc etc please leave a comment HERE !

Till next time, stay happy stay creative xoxo!

Hello Crafters!

We have a brand new sketch #126 over Sketchabilities , as always you have until 13th November to send in your take on the sketch!

I loved this sketch reveal so much, I decided to use a neutral base and to play with warm colors. I also love the photo I decided to use...This photo is part of an endless collection of photos taken with my best friends. Moments of uncontrollable laughter, smiles, endless moments of true friendship ... no lies, no excuses ... no nothing. Only the carelessness of being themselves.
I miss these evenings. I miss those laughs..this layout made me find those positive thoughts that lately it is hard to let them peep among every days' thousands thoughts.
This is a very funny picture, where - I hope my friends Bb and Drina will forgive me - , we all come badly, but it is not the result of the photo that is most important ... is what this photo represents.

I obviously used Gelatos, Gesso, Modeling Paste, more Gesso and more colors.
I love the result so much, I love it just as I infinitely love my friends and I miss them so much.




Here's the sketch to follow :

Hello Crafters!
Today double post -- lol hope you will forgive me!
I made another card, this time for Ann Butler Design blog -- I used my favorite stamps set from the Faux Quilted - Unity Stamp to create the background and for the coloring I used iridescent color, alway by Ann Butler.

I absolutely love these roses, they are like a drug to me and I always try to sneak in few of them in my projects! I added some color on them using again Iridescent Colors.
I decided for this color combination because I wanted to create a fresh and colorful card with bold colors that we usually find during spring/summer time, I know this is not really the right reason but....when i made that card it was a sad day for me, so I was looking for a way to cheer me up a little, and what is better than a color therapy!?

Over the blog you will find few photo of how I made the card , click here to be redirected to the blog post!
