Simply Create Too Challenge #39 - and a blog to visit

Simply Create Too has a new challenge to play in - the theme is  Fathers Day or Male Card.
  You have until June 20th to enter.
Simply Create Too

I made two cards for the challenge - both are pretty simple. 


I stamped the mustache and the hat using those $1.50 stamps sets from JoAnns. I  mounted the white cardstock on patterned paper and put the googly eyes on. Some Washi tape to finish them off. 



By the way - Simply Create Too has and extra youth entry option. Children 12 years and under can play in there and there is a separate youth challenge button to win! My son has started to play in the challenge - he occasionally enjoys making cards. And I like this much better than him spending his free time playing computer games. But I did encourage him to start his own card blog -


- and that he enjoys even more than making cards - LOL! You would just make him sooooo happy if you visit his blog and leave a little love for him there!

I am entering those card into:
Simon Says Challenge - Masculine/ Father's Day
ABC challenge - Masculine Cards
Crafty Creations Challenges - One for the Boys

Hab soeben einen kleinen Kommentar bei deinem Sohn hinterlassen. Ein paar ermutigende Worte und gleich hat man Lust auf die nächste Challenge...
In diesem Alter hat mein Sohn viel und gut gezeichnet, ...er wollte später mal Architekt werden. Das hat sich aber geändert, jetzt studiert er um Ingenieur als Informatiker zu werden und er hat nur noch Zeit und Hände für den Computer!
Deine beiden Karten gefallen mir sehr gut und die Kulleraugen finde ich genial!

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!

Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
