Silver birthday card

No sure, what's wrong with me lately..... thought I'll combine the Make it Monday Marvelous Monogram challenge from Papertrey with the

 

Challenge, but no, it was not the regular Make it Monday, it was a blog hop ending yesterday. Alt least I did not screw up with the silver challenge. It took me a while to come up with something - actually Papertrey spurned my imagination  - as you can see. I made this card for my nieces birthday - those are her initials. I just hope she has more important things to do than checking my blog, I would like this to be a surprise.....


It was kind of tricky gluing on the letters After some trial and error I managed to adhere them with glossy accents. The bigger silver circle is glued to chipboard, to give the card some dimension.
And here is another challenge this card will be part of :  CASology CIRCLE  - as my new member Kimberly just told me - I wanted to make something else for this one, but hey, this card fits, too....

Materials: Sentiment Papertrey Cutting Garden, stamp: Papertrey Dot Spot, Cuttlebug alphabet die, Spellbinders circle dies

Okay! Now you just have to enter this silvery masterpiece to the CASology CIRCLE challenge! Than you will be right as rain (which is what is happening outside my window)

Thanks for your vote, I am just forever trying to win me a stamp set (lol)!

Take care.

Those thin letters make it look like it's actually silver on the card - this is so pretty - that dot spot stamp is one of my favourites and the bling is lovely, too! Thanks so much for playing along with us at CASology this week!

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.
