mini cards and some exciting news :-)

Hi my sweet blogging friends and happy Sunday :-)


First of all I am not able to help but have to brag a little bit, because I'm soooo excited!
Today I got a mail from a CARDS magazine editor who requested one of my cards for the January issue. After I had my very first request for a printed magazine last month (for CARDS December ;-) ) I am really super duper excited to have another card picked *yay*


Ok.. now onto the boring 'everday' creative stuff *lol*
Today I want to show you two 'minis' .. I had soooo much fun creating these cuties.
The papers are leftovers from Bo Bunny 'Ad Lib' 6x6 paper pad, I recently used for this card.


I stamped the grass on green patterned paper and cut it out, then did some faux stitching and added the grass to the card using some dimensional adhesive. I also stamped the little dog, colored him with brown Tombows and then adhered him behind the grass.This card is 2 x 2 inches small :-)


For the other card, I stamped the tree and bird on white papers, cut them out, trimming closesly and colored them with Tombows. I also adhered them with dimensional adhesive to the card. I let the bird sit on the twine. This card is 2 3/8 x 2 3/8 inches small.


I hope you'll enjoy your Sunday, my lovelies :-)
