I hope you've had a great week! I surely did - I was lucky enough to win some giveaways, I managed to buy some pre-loved crafty goodies at great prices, AND I can finally share that I have become a new member of the Creative Team 2017 over at Mudra. I will be introducing the company and their products very soon (I'm considering a short video, so stay tuned!), so today I will not be getting into much detail. However, if you're curious, do pop over to their blog and shop and browse around - I can assure you that you'll fall in love with their designs!
Quite a week, huh?! I do like weeks like that, I hope it's an indication of what 2017 will be like! ;o)
On a separate note, in case you're wondering, my Little One is doing great in her nursery, and I cannot express how happy and proud I am! I was the shy kid who never wanted to leave mammy's side, so to see her thrive amongst other people and children just keeps amazing me. She is already such a wonderful little human, and I can't wait to see what kind of a person she grows up to be! For now, though, I hope the time is kind to us, and goes slowly, as I'm enjoying this toddler phase a lot (yes, I quietly hope she never grows up, LOL)...
Coming back to crafty topics - today I am sharing with you quite a CAS card (definitely CAS for me!), which I made with the never-letting-down-absolutely-gorgeous "Beautiful Day" set by Altenew. Funnily enough, I won this set a while ago also, so it's very fitting for this post :o)
I have to say, I am utterly useless at CAS cards, I think I'm simply too scared of too much white space... Even on this card, I had to use some splatters... But I really love the end result. And - an additional bonus - it was rather quick to make!
I wish you all a fantastic weekend! Take care,
Mirella

What a beautiful card. I do love all the splatters! And I love the vellum flower. It's so delicate. And it's such great news about the new team you're on. You are full of the good news! Great also to hear your little one is enjoying nursery. Xx
