Gilli Cozy_Love

My project for the anything goes challenge at House of Gilli Challenge blog showcase Gilli Cozy! Ohhh I can see that many of us can relate to this picture LOL!

Gilli Cozy was colored with Copic markers. I used cryogen paper, can you see the nice sparkling over the copic colors? I just love the look this paper gives to the inked images. My base is made with Anglaise Die cut die. The die was embellished using stamp fro, StampingScrapping Design Stamps (they match with a ton of dies from Spellbinders). To give a different look I also colored the die cut with my copic marker…then added a little glitter on the top…I loved the soft sparkling look.

Gilli Cozy_LoveSI created the sentiment by using 4 cuts from the smaller Anglaise die cut and stamped letters using memento ink (stamps from Studio G)…all the coloring was made using copics. The die cut was also inked using the little matching stamp from StampingScrapping designer stamp. Ribbons are Offray. For an extra touch a little pink twine to make it all girly : ).

I hope you liked the  project! So grab your coloring tools and your stamp! Make a project and join us for this “Anything goes challenge!” over House of Gilli Challenge Blog. I hope hope to see you around for more inspiration! Keep in touch we will have more exciting news coming soon! Check out the New Gilli for CHA Summer!!!

Gilli Fairy :: Rainbow of Colors

GilliFairy_Rainbow~

Gilli Hi iconello folks! So everyone ready to let winter go? LOL Yeah seems that old winter still lingering…but the little flowers are brave. I already have seen some crocus peaking out! Oh color…love love love it!

Talking about color..Hello have you been over CCMC? Oh you are missing out the fun!

GilliFairy_Rainbow

Today I try to bring some color to my surroundings…I follow the CCMC sketch (join us entering your card…the prizes are awesome!!!)and Gilli Fairy helped me to make the magic happens! Well copic was essential for all fall into place ; ). All the sparkle thanks to some good dosage of Stikles…and to set the tone a little distress inks around the edges of the paper (design). A spring card is not a spring GilliFairy_Rainbow_detcard if has no flowers! These flowers are from my stash (generic and prima). For a little touch a few skittles. To complete my magical setting I used Anglaise Die cut stamped with Anglaise stamp set…they are perfect when you want a little something special …you can ado about anything with these dies! Huggies.

Gilli Lollipop :: Sweet Celebration!

Lollipop_Bday~

Gilli Hi iconello people! We are helping the celebrations over Color me Creative  Classroom! Have you popped by? NO..Oh you don’t have any idea what you are missing out!

Lollipop_Bday_Front

For this celebration I prepared a sweet little card! Gilli Lollipop is having the time of of her life among all the sweet friends she has been making!!

For this project I used Gilli Lollipop colored with copics.  The added details I did using copic multiliners…love love these pens…as much as I love my regular copics. The papers are My mind eyes and Martha Stewart and Lollipop_Bday_CloseUpCardstock from stash. My die cuts are from my own design (ballons) and Silhouette library. Dontcha love that cake!? The little sentiment was done by hand on a SU die cut. I added a touch of color around the card using distress inks. All the sparkly…Stikles..and inspired by my lovely friend Suzanne I made Gilli shoes a little glossy…nothing like a patent leather LOL. For the effect Glossy accents was used all around (ballons and Lollipop).

I hope you will join at CMCC birthday celebration and check out the amazing classes…check out the coloring videos…You will be glad you did!

Gilli Florist :: Garden Party Invitations

Gilli_Florish_GardenParty~

Gilli Hi icon

ELLOOOO! OHM I feel the sun popping out little by little…I already see some very fearless daffodils coming out of the ground…spring is on the way….although the weather has not been so great….oh well I am thankful for all!

I am already excited to start my seedlings…I might be a little late in Gilli_Florish_GardenPartyfact…I am not so tech with it…like, I don’t have those nice mats that helps the plants to germinate..(oh I wish!)…But I will try nevertheless to plant my seeds. It is such a pleasure to be able to grow things. Inspired by this desire I created a “Garden party invitation/memento/picture frame” with Gilli Florist! In fact I have a tutorial on how to make this card over the SSDTblog…I will be adding a pdf file here sometime .

For this project I used Gilli Florist colored with copic markers. I added real flowers to her little basket!!! Take a peak, just click on the image. Anyway, the base of the card (front and back) was made with Anglaise die cut attached by a little piece of twine (cotton cord). The picture on the card (from my very own grown flower) was cut using Spellbinders classic circles large. All the glitz is stickles. The little sentiment/pendant is a combo of Frou frou die cut and Spellbinder classic circles. The stamped image is from the Stamping scrapping designer stamp Frou Frou.

Gilli_Florish_GardenParty_inHere is how I did the inside. The stamped frame is from SS designer stamps Lacey circles. I wrote the little sentiment and the party info with copic multiliners…I love this guys!!!

Well I hope you are getting your seedlings started! If so share with me some tips!!! I would love to hear about it! Huggies!

Gilli Rockability :: Cutie Pie

Gilli_Rockabilitie_CutiePie~
Gilli Hi icon

ello everybody! We were going on such a lovely path! Can you believe we almost reached 70F on past few days?! Yeah, yeah…our friend the groundhog sayid it will be a short winter…I am not so sure…Guess what happen yesterday? lol. I open the door to take the doggie out..and I was like “ whoa!!!” Who throw out all this stuff here?! LOLOL..We are all white again! lol  I love it!
Today I bring you a little project full of color. See why I like white? Makes me not take for granted color! Well unless is….never mind I Gilli_Rockabilitie_CutiePieam in therapy for that LOL..
I decide to make  a little vintage look card but with a modern vibe : ) Gilli Rockability helped to pull my idea out! Doesn’t she look like she came out one of those cute family pics you have?
I used Memory makers papers from a collection book. I liked how vibrant the colors look! Gilli Rockability was colored with copic markers. Also used in this project Anglaise Die cut and Frou Frou tags.  They work so well together, dontacha thing Smile? lol. The stamped sentiment is from Just Rite Stampers…I am nuts about them together!
Gilli_Rockabilitie_CutiePie_INHere is a peak of the inside of the card ; ). I love embossing. So I pick (no pun intended) the Cherry impressability plate. It goes perfectly my vintage vibe! A little distress ink around the edge. To create  a little accent on th inside of the card I colored only one of the embossed cherries with copic marker…I think this inside could be easily on the outside ( just add a little sentiment like You’ve got a friend from Gilli Stamps) and ta-da! simple note for a cute little gift!
I hope you liked the project! Don’t forget to join us at House of Gilli Challenge Blog…the prize is Sweet!!!!

But it is kind of sweet to have a day solemnly dedicated for that special one : )..Yeah it is time to celebrate the one that drives you mad, but also makes you smile! Oh love..lol. One cannot live without it.

My special valentineGilli_Senorita_Amorcard was created using Gilli Senorita! As you will noticed a little trim gave a whole new look to this romantic girl.  During this whole project I could hear gorgeous guitars solos and castanets  playing along with each drop of glue : ).  Nothing more passionate then a Spanish dancer swirling around her chosen one…the melodies, the strength, the fatal eye look! Pure passion.
