Bye Bye OCC!

This will be my last card as a member of Our Creative Corner's design team. There were some changes at the OCC and I have to say goodbye. I am so thankful for having been part of the team for almost a year. I really had the honor to work with a group of very talented ladies and I have learnt a lot from every single one of them, I am going to miss them dearly. Things move on and changes challenge me, so I am ready to endeavor new opportunities.

Thanks for stopping by! Happy crafting!

You can also incorporate some texture, such as fabric, ribbon, floss, etc. and a metal piece, brad, pin, charm, etc. The most important thing is to have fun. Enjoy!

Have a wonderful weekend! Happy stamping!

Photo inspiration for Our Creative Corner!

Happy Saturday everyone! The new challenge for Our Creative Corner, hosts by Lori, is to create a modern inspired card/project with texture using the colors of the photo. Check out the wonderful creations of the design team. 

This card was inspired by Valerie. I created the texture inside the flower by overlapping different cardstocks with the colors of the photo. I wanted to leave a lot of white space in my card  because I wanted the flower to catch the attention with the different colors. Hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Rain or shine carry your umbrella!

Lisa is our hostess for the Friday Mashup's challenge this week. We have to create a project/card using Double Z folding card and/or add an umbrella. Dont' forget to check out the creations of the design team!

For the base of the card I used the Natural Composition Specialty Paper (126917). I love this paper, it has glossy, raised patterns printed on heavy-weight Natural paper. If you look carefully at my card you are going to see the flowers, and the lines which are glossy, and add a nice texture to my card.
Then I used the Oh Whale stamp set ( W 129129  C 129132) , and the matching die Happy Whale (129403) to cut out the whale. The umbrella is from Rain or Shine stamp set ( W 126775 C 126777), the stamp is from Vintage Verses stamp set (W 129633 C 129636), and the designer paper is Sunshine & Sprinkles (126922).

That is all for today. Have a wonderful weekend!
Happy stamping!
