10-minute-craft-dash #10

Pink, grey and green - not a color combination I would think of normally. But here is my card for the 10 minute craft dash:

I inked up my new Hero Arts Tweed background stamp with grey pigment ink, clear embossed it and colored it with Copics. The sentiment is Hero Arts as well (Essential Messages). The embossing almost did me in - tok a long time, but then the coloring is so much easier. It took me 9 minutes and 49 seconds to finish the card - just enough time to put some gems on it - took me about 20 seconds to find them.....

Thanks for looking! Have a great day!

Oooh, this tweed background stamp is so pretty! I like how you embossed it- the look is beautiful. That sentiment is so great as well.

Thank you for playing in the 10 Minute Craft Dash challenge!

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.

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!
