Welcome to 3 Clovers Thursday Challenge #10!

Hello Ladies, I made this card a couple of weeks ago to join my yahoo group swap and I thought it is perfect to join 3 Clovers Thursday Challenge #10 too, that requires animal image only. I made this card very simple as I had to follow a sketch but I think this stamp is so cute that it is not necessary to put a lot of embellishments on the card. This stamp is from whipper snapper and I colored it w/my CIAO copics.
I hope you all like it and leave your comment, I`d love to read it! Hugs Vivi Casale

3 Clovers Thursday - Challenge #7

Hi All, Oh, after this entire week without being able to make cards due to an order that I got in my online shop, I took a little time off and made 3 cards! One of them I made for 2 purposes: 1st: To join the 3 Clovers Thursday - Challenge #7 2nd: To send to a friend for Yahoo Group Paterned Swap Card – theme Bird So, I thought this stamp is perfect for both and this is the one I'm showing to you today! The stamp is from Whipper Snapper Designs and it is called Tweetie Pie. I used my CIAO copic markers to color my stamp. So this is what I came up with: I hope you all liked it and if possible, leave a comment, I'd love to read it! Hugs, Vivi Casale

Still inspired

Good Night to all, before I go to bed, I want to show the other card I made while I was inspired by those awesome cards. A while ago, I received from a friend the images that are in this card but I didn't had the chance to make a card with muffin before, so I thought now would be a good opportunity... And as I just received my first nestabilities, I cut the largest oval shape to use on it. So, this is the result: That is all for tonight and I wish you all a terrific week! Hugs, Vivi

New card with the lovely Tilda

Hello Ladies, Last night, after getting inspired for some awesome cards, I got to work and made my own... not that awesome, of course.. One day, I'll get there.. lol.. So, no card for sketch challenge today!!! Well, of course I had to make this card with Tilda from Magnolia Stamps as I'm madly in love with her. Lately when I start crafting I just cannot think in any other stamp to work with than Tilda... So Here goes my card: For embellishment, I used pink flower shapes chatons (no idea how the name in english), Petaloo glitter pink and white flowers, brad and ribon and colored my little girl with Ciao Copic Markers. A close up in my girl:
Hugs,

3 Clovers Thursday Challenge # 2

Hi, After being a long time away from my stamps and missing them A LOT, due to the quilling orders that I had in my website http://www.quillingbyvivi.com/ I just got a little break from it to join the 3 Clovers Thrusday Challenge #2. The challenge was to make a card using B + B + B = brown and blue and buttons. I had this brand new Tilda from Magnolia in the sealed package so I thought it would be really good opportunity to make a card with her.... So, this is what I came up with: Leave a comment, I'd love to hear your thoughts about my card! Hugs, Vivi

Playing with a new Tilda

A very kind Friend of Magnolia's Yahoo Group gave me these Tilda's images as I have only few ones and wanted to color something different. I used my brand new Ciao copic markers to color them.. I'm still learning how to work with it as I don't have many markers yet (they are on my priority wish list). I'll be very happy to read yours comments and suggestions if you leave one!! I would really appreciate to know thoughts about my cards... thanks, Vivi
