RIC#44


Not much time any more for the RIC- I missed the last couple of challenges - too busy with other stuff.....and this is going to be quick - I had back to school night today and its late.....



I used peach colored vellum for my card. The stamp is from Impression Obsession, the die is Memory Box - perched Reed Bird, the sentiment is from Fresh Squeezed Stamps - I won that recently -yeahh and finally go to use it. I heat embossed it.




Added a ribbon


Here is a close-up:


The eye is a tiny enamel dot.

I really like it - it came out just as I wanted and envisioned it.

I am also linking this card with Simon Says - Anything goes

Have a good night and thanks for stepping by!

You're right, the dress is peach ... that didn't register with me until you pointed that out! Your card turned out really well, Cornelia. The tiny enamel dot on your bird is the perfect finishing touch!

Herzlichen Glückwunsch für die "birthday honors" bei Seize the Birthday! Bin froh, dass diese Karte dort geehrt wurde, wenn sie schon nicht bei ric gewonnen hat (was ich gar nicht verstehe, weil ich sie so toll finde)!

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

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...
