Good May morning everyone!!

Mother's day is just round the corner so I thought of making something for my mum and my mum-in-law, as they're both very special in my life!!

This is what I came up with...

I used a bronze sheet to cut out the butterfly and the flower and then embossed them. The "mother" I used comes from the set "Roses in bloom" from Waltzingmouse stamps, and I think it's one of my favorites so far!!! I simply love it.... and of course looooove its versatility!!

So I'm giving this to my mum and I'm making one more for my mother-in-law (my second mother!), to give them along with the card I made for them a few days ago!.

That's all....

Thanks for visiting and Happy Mother's Day to all moms!!!!

Good afternoon!!!

I’ve got news of another candy tonight, the Create4Fun blog has reached 50,000 hits and to celebrate they are giving away a PINK Cuttlebug!

Go ahead!!! Enter and you might be the winner!!!!

Have a great day.....

Happy spring!!!

Spring (or better summer with those high temperatures here!) here is at its peak!!!! I think this is my favorite time of the year... two steps away from winter and just half step away from summer!!!

I've quite lazy lately taking advantage of the beautiful weather and taking some long walks with my daughter (when this is possible in a town like Athens where there is absolutely no planning for strollers...... sniff!!). Therefore I've made no new cards lately although I've got sooo many ideas in my head!!

This is a little something I made for a friend's baby last week.

And some details.....

I stamped and heat embossed the name, I stitched the flower stems and used my big shot to cut some flowers from designer papers. I used a paper punch for the leaves. I also stamped butterflies and the grass, both from PTI stamp sets....

Hope you like it. Thanks for visiting!!

And have a super beautiful, warm, sunny and happy May!!!!!!

Good evening!!

It is late at night (or better early in the morning...lol) here in Athens and I'm still up so that I can participate in the April PTI blog hop this time!! Anyway it is the best time for me to create since inspiration comes easier at this time for me!! It's always been like this..... my mind is better working at night!!! hahaha

It is the first time I've ever participated in the monthly blog hop. Every time I have sooo many ideas about a project to meet the requirements, but when the day comes I never get around to create something.... as usual inspiration doesn't come when you mostly need it!! LOL... This time though I had time to create this card for my mother-in-law for mother's day which is just around the corner. The challenge this time was to use tissue paper, which is definitely one of the hottest trends at the moment.

So here is the card I made...

And here is a close up of one of the flowers with tissue paper.

I used a leaf stamp from turning a new leaf, one of my favorite stamp sets from PTI. The base is chocolate cardstock and I think it really helps the pink and yellows I used to pop!

It came out nicely I think....

Can't wait to share with everyone participating and hop around to visit everyone's blog!!! Inspiration will surely be flowing......

Thanks for visiting!!

I'm here again!! It's been such a long time searching for my mojo!!! I'm not sure I've found it yet.... but ever since I got this amazing set from Waltzingmouse stamps called Roses in bloom, my hands have been itching to ink it up!!!
The opportunity to use it is the blog waltz organized by Waltzingmouse today using one of their sets with the theme of Mother ... I'm not sure how it really works... Hope I've done it correctly....
So here I made a special card for my mum for taking part in the blog waltz today!!!
I colored my roses with my fave copics and I chose my favorite colors at the moment, lilac, purple, pink and thyme green... I didn't seem to have any ribbon to match this deep pink so I colored some white one with my copics...
love how it turned out. Hope my mum likes it too when she gets it...





And this is the inside of the card where I stamped the rose bud, colored it and added the verses...

Sorry this is such a sort post but I really have to run...
Thanks for visiting and enjoy the blog waltz today.... I'm sure the creations from all the ladies will be highly inspirational!!!

Long time I didn't have any time to blog and actually I had no new projects to share...
Easter has come and gone and I spent with my family taking some time off and resting for a bit...
I took sooooo many pictures of my babies... can't have enough of their pretty faces...


That's my little princess...



And my sweet prince...

I was just spending some time visiting my favorite blogs earlies and stumbled upon a giveaway by the very talented Sachiko from Tea Rose Home!!! It's a beautiful fabric... I'm thinking of fabric flowers and brooches for summer.... oh, it's sooooo springy!!!!!!
Hope I'll be back in a couple of days with a card and a project....
Thanks for visiting....

March is here!!!

Where did time go??? This is already the third month of the year!! It feels like yesterday that it was Christmas and spring is already on the way!!! Time surely flies!!
March is one of my favorite months of the year (the other one is August!!) since it's my birthday and my son's birthday too!!! He's turning 4!!! Can't even believe it how my little baby is now a boy!!! (Well I'm growing too but better oversee that!!! LOL)
Anyway.... right now I'm working on some candles for Easter. Like I said it's something godparents buy for their godchildren so that they can go to church on Saturday eve and celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.... Don't know if you have something similar where you live but here Easter is a really BIG celebration.
So I took these pictures of some of the candles I decorated along with the box the candles come in.






I'll post some more tomorrow maybe.
Thanks for visiting. If you liked what I make please leave a comment!! I love all your kind words and they make my day!! I'd also love to know that I'm not the only one reading my blog!!! LOL
Hugs...
