Hi friends,
Hope you are doing great. This year I visited Creativation (also known as CHA) which happened the last weekend. It had been one of the biggest dreams for me to visit this show, since I started paper crafting back in Ukraine. I wanted to babble about my experience there, but it would be too much text. Let me know if you like me to tell about Creativation and I will create a separate post for it.
In a nutshell – it was extremely great to be there. Sadly, when I came back I faced the reality of catching up in all areas of my life – work, home, cardmaking, blogging. We still have our Christmas decorations on ;))) I took down some yesterday and today the main task is to take down the tree and hopefully remove the rest of decor all around the apartment. In my defence I should say that we’re Orthodox Christian and our 12 days of Christmas are January 7-19 😉
Anyways, I came today to quickly show a card made using newly released adorable die set from Simon Says Stamp – Happy Clouds. I’m not a very cutsie cardmaker as you know. But being at Creativation I did several make and takes at companies booths which were cute and happy and for a moment I even considered started making such cards as well ;)) Not sure how it will go, as it’s not exactly my style. But at least one such card I made 😉
These clouds are so happy that you don’t really have other options but creating something cheerful and cute.
The card itself is very simple as you can tell. I started by die-cutting a panel out of powder blue cardstock using SSS Wonky Rectangle Die. Along with die-cutting clouds out of white cardstock.
I stamped a sentiment in black in the bottom right part of the panel and foam mounted it onto a white card base.
Lastly I foam mounted all clouds onto the panel which finished off the card. For mounting I used foam squares both regular and thin. To place could on different height. I mentioned it many times and will do in future – thin foam squares are a must in my craft room. They are twice “shorter” (if that is correct word) than regular one and can come in handy in many situations.
Here you have it. A very simple and cute card 😉
Have a wonderful rest of weekend and a productive next week!

Ну конечно же хотим хоть одним глазком увидеть как же оно там??? Для это, скорее всего, так и останется мечтой, поэтому я с огромным удовольствием смотрю видео с этих выставок ;)))
Поздравляю с исполнением мечты!!! Радуюсь за тебя и с тобой! 😉
Открыточка и правда прям-таки кавайная! Милашество, но все-таки твоя строгость форм и геометрия тоже угадывается.
