Sequins in under 10 Minutes

I decided to combine the 10 minute craft dash with the Papertrey blog hop. At the last minute - as so often....Well, that happens, when you have to work all day, as I had to do yesterday, too...

the requirement at Papertrey is sequins. I happen to have a few, that I have never used. So I quickly threw this card together - I was in Yoga class earlier and thought the entire time about how to compose this card...Amazing, what yoga is good for....


I made a quick grid with pencil, used a flower from the Papertrey Beautiful Blooms set and a Michaels sentiment. I made this card in exactly 9 minutes and 50 seconds. Puhhhh, that was close.....Its a little off center and the sentiment is a little off, too -  oh well...otherwise I would have gone over the time limit....

Love the grid & color palette - I can completely relate to planning a card while doing something else!

Was, bei dieser Challenge hat man nur 10 Minuten um eine Karte zu machen!!!
Wahnsinn, mir wird die Zeit schon knapp wenn wir bei der Bastel-Elfe nach Sketch arbeiten und da haben wir 90 Minuten...
aber wenn ich da alles richtig verstanden habe, darf man sich vorher schon alles was man dazu braucht herrichten und es wird nur die Zeit gerechnet, die man zum basteln der Karte benötigt! Stimmt das so?
Da hätte ich doch direkt auch mal Lust mitzumachen :-)
Du hast dich gut gehalten und deine Karte ist super geworden!

LG Rosi

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! Mirror Image stamp ,  Two Cats in a Tree If you want a video tutorial on how to do this I can highly recommend you watch THIS VIDEO on youtube. Explains it all in very little time! Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
