The Versatile Blogger Award

Hello!

I wish all mothers a happy Mother's Day. I feel fantastic today. This week I got two awards and  win one challenge. Just get a mystery prize from the Magnolia from Sweden and I can go into retirement. Yesterday I got VBA (Versatile Blogger Award) from my lovely friend Tan from http://tanshobbies.blogspot.com/. 
This is really a wonderful person who regularly follow my blog. I am glad that I was nominated for this award because I learned something more about her.
Her creations are beautiful. I love flowers she made.  She bought Copic markers lately and her coloring is wonderful. Maybe she is really a bit lazy. She could publish more. But love is in the air. She will be getting married. You may visit her blog and see her flowers tutorials. If you could do Kawasaki Rose then you are talented.
Thanks Tan  for sharing this award with me.


Here are the rules and guidelines for this award:
  1. Thanks the person who gave you this award.
  2. Include a link to their blog
  3. Next, select up to 15 blogs/bloggers that you've recently discovered or follow regularly.
  4. Nominate those bloggers for the Versatile Blogger Award
  5. Finally, tell 7 things about yourself.
The next step is to choose 15 people. I chose the following ladies, who have wonderful blogs. Some of them already have this award. But I can not choose the others. So I suggest that it is possible to get a prize of more than one person (to be nominated), only once you can give forward. These blogs are in random order:

  1. Sue - http://suescrafthaven.blogspot.com/
  2. Dorothy - http://dekaartentuinvandorothymadereel.blogspot.com/

And finally, 7 things about my self:

1. I'm living in a small European country. My official language is not English. Therefore, sorry if my comments sometimes sound strange. Mr. Google translator sometimes speaks as a child.
2.I started to create quite accidentally in 2008. I did not like to do cards. I prefer doing other paper products.
3. I worked creative workshops for children. That is why I like imagining new things.
4. In my room is a big mess, especially when I create.
5. I have two nephews and a niece, which I adore.
6. I love Tilda Magnolia stamps. Especially with curly hair. I got straight and I've always wanted curly.
7. I'm sorry if you are angry because of the nomination, but I respect the rules. 

So this is it.  I did my job. Ladies you have beautiful blogs. In this half-year of blogging I have learned a few things. Above that you need time for blogging. Doing crafts, take pictures, publish, follow other blogs OMFG. I'm tired. But we have candies and awards. And most important of all is that we share a friendship. So dear friends wishing you a wonderful day.

    CUPCAKES MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY

    Hello all. This week I had a few problems with my creativity. It seems to me that it is on vacation. Somehow, I managed to make this card. I'm not quite happy with it. Maybe Mr. Linky like it. First idea for this card was Totally Gorjuss challenge Yummy. I got from   Weekly freebie MYGRAFICO beautiful cupcake. I have an idea to put Tilda on it. Cupcake was the burgundy color so I had to adjust all the colors to it. I cut four Doilies with Marianne dies and glue them on the card. I  also found this old bow. I did not know where to put it last, I decided to paste it on top of the card. Flovers on left are made with old unused embellishment. Tilda's dress is made ​​with paper piecing. I had to try some this technique, and here is very simple. Tilda is coloring with coloring pencils and glued with 3D foam. Also  cupcake. This came out.

    Supplies:
    Stamp:  Yummy For Your Tummy Collection - Dinner Tilda
    Sentiment: Free digital stamp - Ginger's House
