AEI♥U

The July challenge is still going on at Avery Elle and below you see the inspiration photo. I finally own some Avery Elle stamps, although I hardly used any for this challenge....



I cut out strips of colored card stock, adhered them to white card stock and put a clear acrylic sheet behind the colored strips. It was kind of hard to photograph this card, but I think with three different views you get how it looks like... I like the middle view best, where the light reflects off the acrylic....




The sets I used were Bright Days and To the Point.

Ahhh, you guys seem to like my Germany pictures - I have gotten some very nice comments about them - thank you all, I love your comments :)
So here are some more pics - this time as collages. We - my son and friends of us took the train to Tegernsee and hiked up the Baumgartenschneid, which is 1444 m high. The weather was not great, so we did not have a good view, but we enjoyed ourselves nonetheless!









And once again, have a great day!

What a great idea of the card! Your cards ideas make me think that you're cardmaking engineer :)

Tolle Bilder wieder! Das erinnert mich an früher wenn unsere Tante zu Besuch kam, da fuhren wir des öfteren zum großen Arber und uns Kindern machte die kraxlerei eine menge Spaß. Ich wandere gerne im Urlaub und am liebsten in den Bergen, wie du dir denken kannst.

Nun zu deiner Karte...
ehrlich gesagt wäre mir zu diesem Foto rein gar nichts eingefallen, aber du hast es wieder geschafft eine überaus interessante Karte damit zu gestalten. Hut ab!!

Saw this over at AE and loved your take on that photo. And perusing your Germany photos I would say that that little fox was a little too close for comfort, eh?

This is so beautiful and trendy card, Cornelia. Love all the soft colored stripes on white and perfect take on the challenge, friend. I have seen few of your Germany pictures and I loved these too. Very beautiful places and you have captured very beautiful shots. :-)

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. 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!

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