# 4 Xmas Card - Let it snow!




Ciao a tutti,
eccomi qui con un'altra card creata per il Deep Ocean challenge!!!
Scommetto che vi state domandando quale tema abbiamo scelto per voi questa quindicina. Questa volta vorremmo vedere le vostre creazioni basate sul tema...
"Let it snow...".
Credo che ci sia qualcosa di straordinario e meraviglioso nella neve. I fiocchi che scendono silenziosamente così soffici, bianchi e puri... è una vista favolosa che ti porta fuori dal tempo.
Sfortunatamente a Roma nevica molto molto raramente... e quando accade è il panico! Tutta la città si blocca... non ci siamo abituati !! Lol.
Per quanto riguarda la card ho deciso di usare una forma particolare, un semicerchio, colori tenui e naturalmente il bianco... sennò che neve è?
Spero vi piaccia!

Hi there everyone,
here I am  with another card I've created for the challenge at Deep Ocean!!!
I bit you are wondering what theme we have chosen for you this forthnight. Well this time we would like to see your creations on the theme...
"Let it snow...".
I always believe there is a little piece of wonder in snow. The snoflakes  falling silently so soft, white and pure... it's a fabulous sight that brings you out of time.
Unfortunately here in Rome it's snowing very very rarely... and when it happens it's panic! All the town gets blocked... we are not get used to it!! Lol.
About the card I decide to make it with an odd shape, an half circle, and with soft colours and white sure enough... what snow  would it be otherwise?.
Hope you enjoy it!

# 3 Xmas more and more!!



Ciao a tutti,
sono di nuovo qui dopo pochi giorni, e dopo una piccola digressione ho fatto una card di Natale, come la stagione richiede!!
Mi sono sbizzarrita un po' con la forma del biglietto, è una easel card ma la forma quadrata è sagomata (tagliata con un die). Ho scelto di nuovo il colore rosso, così bello, brillante e anche festivo e per l'immagine ho utilizzato la Magnolia Tilda vestita da Babbo Natale.
Sempre più Natale!!

Hi there everyone,
I'm here again after few days, and after a little digression I made a Christmas card, as the season requires!!
I indulged myself  with the card's shape, it's a square easel card but the square is shaped (cutted with a die). I choose the colour red again, so beautiful,  bright and festive too, and for the image I used the Magnolia Tilda dressed up as Santas.
Xmas more and more!!

A Silver Fairy




Ciao a tutti,
sono passate altre due settimane... non posso crederci!! Mi dispiace tanto di non aver postato nulla finora, ma ora eccomi qui per il nuovo challenge di Deep Ocean.
Il tema è... Letter "C" as...
Ho pensato di rappresentare la lettera  "C" as CUTE (come bello, carino, attraente), così com'è il timbro di Sylvia Zet che ho scelto. Questa Silver Fairy è così diafana e leggera che mi è sembrata l'ideale per rappresentare un'atmosfera invernale. Per lo stesso motivo ho scelto dei toni chiari per tutto, dalle carte, ai fiori, al colouring.
In ogni caso ho intenzione di trovare subito del tempo per fare altre card di Natale - ho sempre buone intenzioni... LOL.


Hi there everyone,
another forthnight has gone by... I can't believe!! I'm really sorry I wasn't able to post anything during this time, but now here I am again for the new challenge at the Deep Ocean.
The theme is... Letter "C" as...
I thought to represent letter "C" as CUTE, as Sylvia Zet's image I choose for this card is. This Silver Fairy is so sheer and light that seems to me the best to represent a winter atmosphere. On the same grounds I choose light tone for everything, from papers and flowers to colouring.
Anyway I'll intend to take time to give more Xmas card soon - I always have good designs... LOL.

# 2 Vintage Xmas Card



Ciao a tutti,
oggi comincia un altro challenge al Deep Ocean! :-)  
Il tema di questa settimana è ... Vintage!
Per la mia card mi sono ispirata alle suppellettili e ai soprammobili del  diciannovesimo secolo. Ho sempre associato l'idea di un certo vintage agli oggetti dorati ed elaborati, così ho deciso di fare una card fondamentalmente con due colori, il viola e l'oro.

Hi there everyone,
today it's time for another challenge at the Deep Ocean! :-)
The theme of this week is ......  Vintage!
For my card I got inspired to furnishings and ornaments of some wealthy houses of nineteenth century. I have always associated the idea of a kind of vintage with gold and ornate item, so I decided to make a card with two main colours, purple and gold.




Per l'immagine ho scelto un timbro di Magnolia dell'ultima collezione di Natale, con quei capelli lunghi ricci mi ricorda le immagini delle vecchie foto. Anche la pagina di musica è un timbro Magnolia  che ho embossato con la polvere d'oro (spero che possiate vederla dalle foto).
Per le decorazioni ho usato perle, merletto, un nastro dorato e soprattutto un angioletto dorato... mi piaceva così tanto !! In realtà è un bottone al quale ho tolto l'occhiello.


For the image I choose a Magnolia Tilda of the last christmas collection, ... she reminded me with those curly long hair the old postcard's images. Also the music page is a Magnolia Christmas stamp that I embossed with gold  podwer (I hope you can see it from photo).
For the embellishments I used pearls, lace, a gold ribbon, a little bell and above all a gilt angel... I love it so much!! As a matter of fact it is a button, but I cutted off the buttonhole.








Stamps: Magnolia "Tilda With Hellebores", Magnolia "Silent Night Background",Stempelglede "Grunge corner" and Lili of the Valley sentiment
Paper/Cardstock: My Mind's Eye "A beautiful life", Bazzill cardstock
Embellishments: 
, Wild Orchid Crafts: flowers and lace, The Ribbon girl: golden ribbon and pearl pin,Stickles: Stardust and Platinum, Glimmer mist: Dazzling Diamonds
Colouring/Ink: Copic markers, Distress Ink: Vintage Photo
Other: 
Angel Charms, Bell and Pearls from my stuff

# 1 Xmas Card


Ciao a tutti,
finalmente sono riuscita a fare la mia prima card di Natale!!! Come al solito sono un po' in ritardo, non posso farne a meno... il tempo va troppo veloce! Vorrei poter fare una card per ogni timbro natalizio che possiedo... un sogno impossibile!!!
Troppi timbri o poco tempo? Non so la risposta... eheheh. :-)
Comunque per questa card ho scelto un timbro Nellie Snellen e il colore di Natale per eccellenza, il rosso (non il rosa come faccio spesso! ;-) ), e ispirandomi al timbro ho deciso di fare una stair step card.
Non è stata una bella idea? Spero di si!!

Hi there Everyone,
finally I succede in making my first Christmas card!!! As usual I'm a bit late,  I can't help doing it... time runs too fast! I wish I was able to make a card for every Christmas stamp I have got... an impossible dream!!!
Many stamps or little time? I don't know the answer eheheh. :-)
Anyway for this card I choose a Nellie Snellen Stamp and the main colour of Xmas, the red colour (not pink as I often use! ;-) ), and inspired by the stamp, I choose a stair step card shaped.
It was a good idea, wasn't it? Hope so!!

A wedding card before Xmas time


Ciao a tutti,
questa è l'ultima card che ho fatto prima di perdermi nella frenetica attività dei lavori per Natale!!
Una mia amica mi ha chiesto una card da matrimonio da dare ai suoi amici che si sono sposati la scorsa settimana... ne ho fatta una molto dolce (rosa!) usando una dei miei timbri preferiti di Magnolia.
... alla mia amica è piaciuta molto, spero piaccia anche a voi!!


Hi there everyone,

Make a wish




Ciao a tutti,
ho una nuova card da farvi vedere! Questa volta ho usato un timbro Nellie Snellen... è la prima volta che li uso e penso che siano veramente deliziosi. Questa piccola fata è così carina che mi ha subito ispirato un senso di allegria e gioia, qualche volta tutti noi vorremmo avere una bacchetta magica per realizzare i nostri sogni!
Perchè non esprimete un desiderio?
Sarò molto felice se mi farete sapere che i vostri sogni sono diventati realtà... :-)


Hi there Everyone,
I've got a new card to share with you! This time I used a Nellie Snellen's  stamp... this is the first time I use them and I think they are very gorgeous. This little fairy is so cute that inspired me a real sense of cheerfulness and joy at once, sometimes we all wish to have a magic wand in order to realize our dreams!
Why don't you make a wish?
I'll be very happy if you let me know that your dream will come true... :-)
