House of Cards

Classic and elegant is the theme at House of Cards this week. The sketch remains the same. I somewhat freely interpretated the sketch. I punched out a 2 inch circle. I sponged the background of the panel behind it. 



I used the Memory Box Fresh Daisies die and then used the negative die cut to sponge the daisies onto the colored panel. The sentiment is from Stempelknopf.


I like the yellow/grey combo - I hope you like it too. 


Wanna see more Canada pictures?

I thought I show you some wildlife today:





 

 






Pretty amazing, those animals. we had so much fun watching them.

What an awesome interpretation of the sketch! You have made me a believer in yellow and grey, I was always on the fence about that combo. Thanks for joining us at HOC!

Fabulous take on our sketch! I love your chipmunks too but I'd find the bear a bit scary!

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
