LITTLE GIFT

Hi all. You ask me why I don't make anything for two week. I have a few problems which I will slowly resolve. For some time I will create less, including your blogs I will not have much time for visits. Tell the truth lately  also have no desire for creating. When  managed my digital stamps I found these wonderful freebie Whopsy Daisy. I don't now it name. I download it on december 2011 or january 2012.  I can't find it on any sheet but  just want to use it so I make this bag. I used Marianne dies and flower punches, pearls and bow is added. On the top is lace. I used those little flowers again. I realy love them. Sentiment is made on computer. Ribbon, lace and embellishments are from my stash. Papers are Brenda Walton's  Designer paper (K&Company).

HAPPY EASTER

Hi all. I barely managed to finish this card. The weather was wonderful, so I spend a lot of time outside in the garden. For this card I used papers from Papercraft Inspirations. As soon as I saw them I knew that I will use them for one project. Alright it is just a Simple Easter card nothing special. I chose Tilda and  her bunny image. Then  I stamped just  bunny and glued it with 3D fooam, also the eggs. Flowers are made with flower punch, pearls are in the centre. The leaves are cut with Spellbinders. Sentiment I made on the computer. Ribbon and charm are from my stock.

I will enter this card into following challenges:

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/
3. Lindsay  - http://craftymonster81.blogspot.com/
4. Sarah- http://createdbysarah.blogspot.com/
5. Cheryl - http://mycardmakinghaven.blogspot.com/

13. Mel - http://melfletcher.blogspot.com/
14. Rina - http://scrapbookfashionistadesigns.blogspot.com/
15. Julie- http://julieprice3.wordpress.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.
