Maya is 3

This is a card for a very special little girl, my own very sweet Maya. She turned 3 this week and I made her a special card. 

She is very into princesses right now and her favorite is Cinderella. Well, actually I think her blue dress and shows are her favorite :-)

I downloaded the picture from the Disney site and traced it on my Silhouette. I then cut it on both regular paper and cardboad (a thin one).

I glued them both and put modpodge on it for shine and sturdiness.

I added a few butterflies, some bling and I was done.

The card says in Hebrew: Maya is 3.

Thank you tags

Got a few new stamps and the spring and summer distress inks and I wanted to try them out.

Story time at day care

During my daughter's birthday at day care I read a story to the kids. I choose the story " the monkey has a problem" and created animals for each kid.

I left all the animals as a gift to the day care and here is a picture of all of it.

Hang in there

Sadly, I have so little time this days to scrap/create cards.

But I did manage to make a few small projects (most of them in the last minute of course). I'll post them in the upcoming days.

First is a card I made to someone I really love who is dealing with a health issue.

Mika is 5

Mika is a sweet 5 years old, who I really love. And shame on me, I had only 10 minutes to prepare a card for her.

So I used some pretty patterned paper, cake embellishment and some sticker letters.

All and all, I was very happy with the way this card turned out.

Happy 40

Quick happy 40th birthday to my hubby... Made it some time ago but only now found time to post it. I love this color scheme.

This is the first time I used pins in one of my cards, I figured it's safe, since my husband is 40... but I didn't count on my 3 years old getting a hold on this card.... :-) Next time, I might put some glue at the end of the pins to make it less sharp...

Thinking of you

Hello my neglected blog readers, I think of you every day but I don't have a lot to post. It's been very busy at work and with the summer vacation I hardly find time to do any crafting at all.

But I did manage to do one quick card yesterday and here goes:

I used the medallion stamp set by PTI which I love, I white embossed it and then colored it with some beautiful new Tim Holtz distress ink I got. Love these colors.

I am really happy with the way this card turned out. The black background really makes the colored circles to pop out of the page.

The idea for this card came from the Super Duper Neon card by Julie Ebersole  - This lady is so talented, everything she does is so beautiful.
