Paper Smooches and Welcome to a New Member!

My membership has kind of stalled lately, so I am especially excited to welcome Cecilia Hsieh to my blog! (At least nobody has left my blog recently - I am happy for that...)
Cecilia is from Melbourne, Australia and makes beautiful cards - go over to her blog and see for yourself!

As for all new members I have a welcome picture for you:


It is by  Mario Armengol and I found it strolling through Calgary on my recent visit there. It is called "The Family of Man" The statues are 21 feet tall and really impressive. I was very touched by them. I hope you like your welcome picture!

--X--

And now lets get back to card making.....

I made this card for the Paper Smooches spark challenge. I used one of their free digi stamps, printed it 3 times and fuzzy cut it. I arranged the hearts on white card stock, drew the stems and added the sentiment from the Paper Smooches - Sentiment sampler and some sequins,



I am starting to warm up to pink - especially the neon variety.


I hope you like it. Below you see the sketch.


I am also submitting this card to the MONOCHROMATIC  challenge at Simon Says.

And once again I want to thank everybody for visiting my blog and leaving comments - I just love it, when you do that!

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.

Addicted to Stamps and More #134 and Spotlight Sneak Peek

Hi Everyone, Its challenge time at  ATSM ! For the next two week its going to be CAS - just my thing! And hopefully yours, too! I made a birthday card, because for some reason I always need more and never seem to have enough.... I was inspired by this weeks Make it Monday , where the talented  Ashley Newell  shows us a video about  stamps and doodling. Since I  mainly own die cuts from Papertrey and not so many stamps that would fit this theme I made my own out of fun foam, using my latest Papertrey dies (just got the order a few days ago) and cut those in fun foam - it works so well - voila - you have our own stamps, spending only a fraction of the money! I doodled around the stamps as you can see. Gives you kind of a cool effect....a little more tremor and one would think I drank too much ;) Added tiny enamel dots - do you know about this month House of Cards challenge - its enamel dots - thought I'll let you know..... Our wonderful spons...
