Sherrie

for joining my blog. I so much appreciate you and everyone else who just comes and visits. I have a welcome picture for you:

Generally I like to show art pictures - this is actually art made by a spider or insect, who nestled the egg sac into a leave. So sorry I neither know the critter, nor do I know the name of the plant - let me know, if you do. But I do think its amazingly beautiful and I hope you like it as much as I do.

Recently I was the very lucky winner of Rosi's generous blog candy. Not only did she send me a lot of goodies, but she made me a beautiful card and an adorable mini album that you can see HERE. I had to make a special than you card for her.

I finally tried out those fuseable fibers that I bought about 2 years ago at at stamp fair. I die cut the Memory Box Chloe Stem die with metal foil, embedded it into the fibers and tied a ribbon around. The background is made with an Inkadinkadoo stamp, that I lightly sponged. The sentiment is Hero Arts Hugs N Hearts.

Here are some close-up pics

I am entering this card into the "Use your stash" challenge at Simply Create too. After all I had those fibers in my stash for a long time and finally got to use them....

Materials: Dicrofibers, Memory Box Chloe Stem die, Hero Arts Hugs N Hearts, Inkadinkadoo.

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.
