Guest Designer for The Stamping Bazaar

Yuppieeeeee!! After so long time I missed here, here I am with a big news!
I am Guest Designer for The Stamping Bazaar... can you believe it? Me?? On The Stamping Bazaar??? Uh uuh uuuuh! I couldn't believe when Susuan and Emma from The Two Pink Ladies, co-ordinators for TSB (I have not words for describe their sweetness and kindness, they're two lovely girls... hope you'll have the possibility sooner or later to talk with these two sweeties, and go to visit their blog for see a lot of fantastic creations) sent me a mail where they asked me to be GDT for a day... can you image my eyes?!? O_O I had not a digital camera in that moment, otherwise here you could see a picture of my face eheheh
Halloween has always been one of my favorite Holidays, even if in Italy it doesn't exist and it's not celebrate (I'm very sad about it), but I'm deeply sure that this magical night has the power to come up the child inside us... and it's simply fantastic!! And then, maybe we must talk about candies that jump up from everywhere?!? Candy apples, chocolate, candies, pie and muffin.... a pain for teeth, but a pleasure for my mouth!
Ok, several times I declared my shameless love for Marvin, the little bat by The Stamping Bazaar, with my friend Alberto (he has the merit and the guilt for my love for him!)... and this occasion is perfect for use him!! I chose Marvin with Candy Apple, so perfect for an Halloween card! The theme chosen was "anything goes"... can something be more easy?! So I took my best spooky papers and my favourite Copic colour, and I started... and this is the result! My lovely card on The Stamping Bazaar here!

Yuppieeeeee!! Dopo così tanto tempo che sono mancata, sono tornata con una grande notizia!
Sono Guest Designer per The Stamping Bazaar... ci credete? Io?? su The stamping Bazaar??? Uh uuh uuuuh! Non potevo credere ai miei occhi quando Susuan ed Emma da The Two Pink Ladies, coordinatrici per TSB (non ho parole per descrivere la loro dolcezza e gentilezza, sono adorabili... spero che avrete prima o poi la possibilità di parlare ed avere a che fare con loro, e andate assolutamente a visitare il loro blog per vedere un sacco di fantastiche creazioni), mi hanno inviato una mail dove mi chiedevano di essere GDT per un giorno... potete immaginare i miei occhi?!? O_O Non avevo una macchina fotografica in quel momento a portata di mano, altrimenti qui avreste potuto vedere un'immagine della mia faccia ehehehe
Halloween è sempre stata una della mie feste preferite, anche se in Italia non esiste e non viene celebrata (non vi dico la mia tristezza per questa cosa), ma sono profondamente sicura che questa magica notte ha il potere di far tornare "a galla" il bambino che c'è in noi... e questo è semplicemente fantastico!!... E poi vogliamo parlare dell'immensità di dolci che saltano fuori ovunque, mele caramellate, cioccolata, caramelle, tortine e muffin... un dolore per i denti, ma un piacere per la bocca!
Ok, diverse volte ho dichiarato il mio amore spudorato per Marvin, il piccolo pipistrello della TSB al mio amico Alberto (lui ha il merito e la colpa di avermelo fatto conoscere)... e questa occasione è perfetta per usarlo!! Ho scelto Marvin with Candy Apple, davvero fantastico per una card di Halloween! Il tema scelto era "anything goes"... poteva essere più facile?! Quindi ho preso le mie migliori spaventose carte e i miei colori Copic preferiti, ho iniziato... e questo è il risultato! La mia card su The Stamping Bazaar qui!

He's sooooo cuuute! ... and I'm so hungry looking his candy apple, slurp! I used different decorations: flowers, stars punched, buttons, pearls, a skull... all for create the magic caos there is during Halloween night! ... Enough spooky and sweet for you?

❝ ❞

E' così cariiiiiinooo! ... e io sono così affamata guardando la sua mela caramellata, slurp! Ho usato diverse decorazioni: fiori, stelle punchate, bottoni, perle, un teschio... tutto per ricreare quel magico caos che esiste durante la notte di Halloween! ... E' abbastanza spaventevole e dolce per voi?

You can buy today's digis here, on Some Odd Girl shop... are you asking yourself why I wrote "A spoooooooooooky release", right?!?! Go on the shop, and you'll see!! But don't be scared, this little cuties are sooo lovely, they're a concentrate of sweet fears... has I told several times, I hope to find some these extremely lovely guys at my door on Halloween night!! They'll be better than candies, absolutely!!
In my first card, with Tia, I tried to create a scene at the twilight, with the beautiful ghosty girl sitting on a pumpkin... probably waiting for his lost love; in the second I tried to create a really original decomposed mummy's skin, but he is too much cute and I couldn't run away... bbrrrr spooooooky!!
I waited so long for use these stamps... and now I can!! I love, LOVE, Halloween theme and these stamps are some of most beautiful, cute and sweet I've ever seen (they're among my favourite stamps)!!!
