My {heart} belongs to you...

Good morning Everyone,

Hope you've been doing fine in the last 3 weeks or so... I cannot believe it has been quiet here for such a long time again! :-( Is being sick any excuse? Let's say it is...! 

Today just a quick post to share with you my Valentine's Day creation I made for my Husband. Simple but with a powerful sentiment, or so I hope ;-) I have to say, I am quite proud of the sentiment, and judging by my Valentine's reaction - He liked it, too! 

What do you think?

 Here's also a short video from my Channel, where you can see the card better:

I am entering the card into the following challenges:

Love to Create: Color Challenge - use red or pink

Passion for Promarkers - Have a heart

I love Promarkers - Gingham/Plaid/Checks (on the heart)

Cute Card Thursday - Clever Cutting

Paper Crafting Journey - Love is in the air

QKR Stampede - Sentiment only

Have a great weekend!

Divas by Design "Anything Goes" challenge

Good evening Everyone,

Apologies for a bit of a quiet period on the blog, but somehow the days are too short for me again! And I don't mean the daylight situation (btw, this is actually finally getting better! :)), it's just that 24 hours in a day is sometimes somehow not enough! Do you feel that way also?

Anyhow, better late than never, and here is the card that I posted on the Divas by Design "Anything Goes" challenge this week. Click here if you want to play along - it's definitely worth it - we have some new sponsors! :)

A pretty simple-looking card, however the "window" and all the punched flowers did take a bit of time, and a lot of patience! All in all - happy with the result! It started as an idea for a Christmas card, and ended up as a Birthday card.. oh well!

I have new video ideas for my new YouTube channel, but these will have to wait a little bit also, I'm afraid! Bear with me!

Have a good week,

M.

My 2014 resolution...

It has happened.. I was postponing this moment for quite a bit, but I decided that with the New Year I should make a crafty resolution and here it is: I've decided to join the YouTube madness!

Now, I have to admit, I am one of the thousands out there who hates their voice when recorded. In addition, I am not the biggest fan of my accent... But hey, I've decided to give it a go, and then there was simply no going back! 

The plan is to make a few tutorials of shaped cards, maybe some hauls...hopefully at some point some giveaways... For now, I am still trying to figure out how to set up my camera to have both hands free (I know, I should have waited with making videos until then, but I just didn't want to have another excuse!) - and since at the moment one of my hands holds the camera, I am a little bit limited... I might try some photo-tutorials, we'll see... 

Enough of rambling, here's the first (and so far only) video on my channel... Let me know what you think! And please forgive me for forcing you to watch my cutting mat for the first 2 minutes ;-)

Have a good evening!
