Be Happy Mixed Media card with Magenta


 Hello my dear crafty friends.
 Irit is here and  I welcome to my second Magenta April post.
 This time I made a Mixed Media card with a background made with a new, just released Magenta stencil and used two new Magenta stamps.
The card front was made with a thick layer of texture paste and when it was dry I misted it with Tattered Angels mist . It was really white cardstock and the colors are all from a single glittered mist.
The stamping was made over special transparency so you can heat emboss it and I used copper embossing powder over clear embossing ink to make this kind of a shaker window, but without anything inside.
The stamp used is square one, so I die cut it with a circle die to fit the die cut frame I made with another circle die.
The sentiment was heat embossed in the same way and added over the circle part of the card.

Our wedding memories LO with BoBunny


 Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my first BoBunny April post.
Today I am going to share a layout made with one of the new and just released BoBunny collections: Once upon a lifetime.
This vintage style and a bit grungy collection is so far my personal most favorite 2018 one.
I love vintage. I adore the grungy colors and all fine prints in this collection.
I am more than sure that every crafter can find a way to use it.
You can make Steampunk projects with this collection in no time.
You can make Family tree albums and layouts and to cherish your family.
You can even make the wedding pages with this collection as my page here today.


 This is a wedding  almost 3 years old photo of one of my twin daughters and her husband and as it was black and white it can be scrapped  over any paper collection.
So how about this one?
I think it looks just perfect.
I didn't make a lot of Mixed Media background and only stamped some black flowers over the " white spaces" here and there.
I didn't add any lace or ribbon as it's already " added" over the page print.
I didn't add any mists or splashes as these are already exist over the front page print.
I added some BoBunny flowers as my main embellishments cluster and stamped and painted over some stamped and hand cut flowers image added under the paper flowers.


 Most of the embellishments are just stickers from this collection's Combo Stickers sheet and a couple of layered chipboards.
The sticker sheet has alphabet letter in just a perfect size to make a long title and the stickers are most gorgeous for a lot of occasions.



Product list:
  Once Upon a Lifetime collection:
12''*12'' cardstock: Heritage, Family Tree, Once Upon a Lifetime,Pedigree, Traditions, Generations
Once Upon a Lifetime Combo Stickers
Once Upon a Lifetime Layered chipboard
Stitches stamps
Pocket full of Posies stamps
Nested terrific tags dies
Clover Bouquet flowers
Clover Pansy flowers
Double Dot Mocha jewels
Elegant laser cut chipboards
Hearts chipboards
Beautiful dreamer buttons
Coral Pearlescents
Butterscotch Pearlescents

I hope that you like my layout and this gorgeous paper collection and would try  to make" out of the box" projects with this collection.
 How about making kids project as a challenge? Should we try together?

CAS- ual Fridays Forget your trebles



 Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to our new CAS- ual Fridays challenge!
This time we challenge you to make something with treble key.
The only thing I had in my stash were those music chipboards as I forgot to order the proper CAS- ual Fridays stamp sets and believe me - they have a lot of them! My fault. So I used CAS- ual Fridays sentiments and made this music card with  a real music sheet.
 As you can see you can do anything music as I did and to enter our challenge for the next two weeks.

Clean and Simple one layer cards with Magenta


 Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my new post made for Magenta.
This time I made a trio of clean and simple one layer cards with three new and just released most gorgeous silhouette  Magenta stamps.
As you can see all cards were made in the same way.
First I made a die cut card front using water color cardstock.
Then I made a frame using the same size paper and one of the dies: oval, post stamp or rectangle frame.
Then the frame was glued over the card front with non permanent glue and inked inside with a mix of three distress inks. But as you can see I made it just partially and in purpose.
For the next step each stamp image was stamped with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with black detailed embossing powder.
The sentiment was added to each card and the only embellishments are some Nuvo drops added to each card front.
I didn't add another layer and left it as a post card.
So easy and so fancy and you can make dozens of these cards with the same frames, but in different ink color and with more new released Magenta stamps.
