cards and new JD stamps!

Hello!
Hope all is well!

I created two similar cards...for this one I didn't do any colouring...all I did was stamp the flowers (did some masking) and then with the same ink pad I just dabbed it onto my acrylic block and spritzed some water on it and took a small paint brush and added a touch of colour...simple and fast. I used my Pretty Peonies, Geometric Patterns and Croatian sentiments stamp sets.




For this card I did the same masking technique (which I did a video...you can check here)...but I coloured the flowers with my Graph'it markers.




Also....two new JD stamps sets are in the shop!! :) It'll be a small release (had some other stuff going on...the next release will be back to normal!) but a sweet one! :)


This first stamp set was designed by the talented Angeline!!




This set I drew up....I'd like you to meet Emma (who was inspired by my talented DT member Laura's daughter Emma and the boy is my youngest Jakov who did loose his very first tooth!!) This set is called...



So keep an eye out for the release....it's coming soon! :)
Have a great weekend!

Hello!
Hope all is well!

First to share this card I created using my Doodle Flowers stamp set. Did some simple colouring using my Graph'it markers and a little masking.






There are some new Bourjois goodies that I hope will be coming to Zagreb soon!! Like this Color Boost lip crayon in Peach on the Beach (don't you love the name!!) I'm a sucker for these chubby crayons!! 


What is coming soon is Deborah Milano's Glossv Sticks...I will have to try them out....the colours are gorgeous!!




Also I heard great reviews on their new Bronzing Primer....which you could use as a bronzer.






I really hope their new cream blushers will come too! I LOVE cream blush.

My favourite has been Stila's but I've been using MaxFactor's Miracle Touch creamy blushes and LOVE them and are comparable to Stila's.
I bought this one yesterday in Soft Pink...it's looks bright but it really is soft once you blend it out.




That's it for now!
Take care!

Nin part 2 - The Church of the Holy Cross

Hello!

I can sit and look at this beautiful church all day....if I could have I would've gotten married in it!!! The Church of the Holy Cross is the smallest cathedral in the world. It's the most valuable preserved monument of the early Croatian religious architecture. Built in the 9th century it is the only religious object in Nin which has remained untouched.






My family going inside...we never tire of it!









We always pray inside...it's wonderful...always tear up! :)






Right next to this beauty is my cousin's restaurant Branimir....beautiful stone building, awesome food and service! :) And I'm not saying that because I get special service....I never reveal to the staff that I'm family! :)



If you are ever in Nin I recommend eating at this restaurant....go and sit on the veranda and enjoy the view of the smallest cathedral in the world!



Have you ever been to Nin?


Well...that's it for today.....lots more tomorrow....I warned ya'll that it's going to be Croatia month on my blog! :)
