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!
Ganz liebe Grüße

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.

I opened the frame on the side to have the butterflies and color spill out. Added lots of splatters and the heat embossed sentiment Your next stop on the hop is the talented Henriette - you are going to love her card!

Addicted to Stamps and More #134 and Spotlight Sneak Peek

Hi Everyone, Its challenge time at  ATSM ! For the next two week its going to be CAS - just my thing! And hopefully yours, too! I made a birthday card, because for some reason I always need more and never seem to have enough.... I was inspired by this weeks Make it Monday , where the talented  Ashley Newell  shows us a video about  stamps and doodling. Since I  mainly own die cuts from Papertrey and not so many stamps that would fit this theme I made my own out of fun foam, using my latest Papertrey dies (just got the order a few days ago) and cut those in fun foam - it works so well - voila - you have our own stamps, spending only a fraction of the money! I doodled around the stamps as you can see. Gives you kind of a cool effect....a little more tremor and one would think I drank too much ;) Added tiny enamel dots - do you know about this month House of Cards challenge - its enamel dots - thought I'll let you know..... Our wonderful spons...
