For Dasa and some Food

First some exciting good news - I won a spot from Laura Basssen's give-away at the next Clean & Simple Card Making Class! Yeahh, I am sooo excited! I took Clean & Simple class #1 and had sooo much fun. I also learned a lot there. So soon, this blog will be filled with all those new things I will be learning :)

The lovely Dasa made this adorable card  and posted it on flickr. I wish I could post it, but it seems to be protected, so go and check it out! So I asked her how she did this, thinking she inked up somebody's baby...

But no, she made it with her hand.. So I gave it a try - the first ones failed miserably, but eventually I settled for this:




The sentiment is Inkadinkadoo.

And now some FOOD:

I recently made Germknoedel - an Austrian specialty. You make a standard, simple yeast dough, let it rest and then form balls filled with prune filling. Let them rest again and boil them in salted water for about 6-8 minutes on each side (flip them over) - watch out, they get really big! Take them out, pour melted butter on top and sprinkle them with a mixture of poppy seeds and confectioners sugar. Enjoy!








I hope you enjoyed my entry today. Thanks for coming by and visiting and thank you so much for all those lovely comments I am getting - they always put a smile on my face!

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!
