Guest Designing at Time Out

Hi Everyone,

today I have the honor of guest designing for the current Time Out challenge!
Here is the inspiration picture;



So anybody who knows me also knows that this is in fact a huge challenge for me...I like CAS and colors and that picture has none of it... What to do???

Well, I solved it, as you can see. 
Thank goodness for STAMPlorations stamps :)


The famous landmarks and the background stamps are all by STAMPlorations. The rest is by Papertrey. You see I could not resist a pop of color...


So challenge yourself - or may be it won't be a challenge for you and come and play with us! You know their DT is amazing and has a lot of inspiration for you!

Linking up with:
Mod Squad challenge - great outdoors (all those buildings are outdoors...)
Color Throwdown - see below
ColourQ - black and a spot color
Take It, Make It Challenge
Happy Stamping!

Such a fabulous CAS spin on that inspiration picture. Love how you made the red and black sentiment pop.
Liebe Cornelia,

Eine wunderschöne, perfekte Karte!

Wohoo, Glückwunsch zum Gastdesgin! Ich finde, du hast dich grandios inspirieren lassen. Dass dich das Bild erst mal gar nicht so richtig angesprochen hat, sieht man ihm gar nicht an.

So cool, Cornelia ... what a fabulous collage panel ... it's brilliant with the splash of red in the die cut sentiment! Smiled when I read about you wondering what to do with that no colour inspiration photo ... I was just the same ... you did a brilliant job! So happy to have you Guest Designing alongside us at Time Out, my friend! Hugs, Anita :)

Congratulations on your GD role, and what a striking card you've dazzled us with! Black, white, a pop of red...you've nailed that inspiration perfectly! I think this one should head over to Inkspirations, too...hint, hint!

Fun design and love those images!! So glad you joined us at CTD!!
Judy Woodland said…
This card is so unique and different, I like everything about it. Black and white with just a touch of color, especially red, is really effective, and you have nailed it here. Plus, your images and background are awesome!! Great take on the challenge, thanks so much for playing along this week over at the Mod Squad.

Also, die Aufgabe hast du ja wieder einfach blendend gelöst - eine wunderschöne Karte, und der kleine "Farbklecks" inform der gestanzten Schrift ist ja einfach ein MUSS!

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

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to be part of this wonderful event - the collaboration between So Suzy and the MISTI from My Sweet Petunia doing mirror image stamping.  This event is going on for the ENTIRE  MONTH! We are demonstrating the  Mirror Image Stamp    which coordinates with the Misti Stamping Tool! All month long, different bloggers will post a card using the  Mirror Image Stamp .  In my tutorial today, I will show you how use the  Mirror Image Stamp  on your cards. You can basically double your stamp supplies that way! The  mirror image stamp  is  a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of red rubber with no foam backing. So much larger than the other mirror image stamps out there and therefore much more useful!

Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
