Action Card with a little video!

Boy, did I have FUN making this card! I wanted to play in the Less is More challenge, but there were already soooo many beautiful entries and I wanted to do something different - kind of hard with a simple sketch like that, but today I had an idea......

Here it is:


I used that cute little TAWS stamp set called Change and a Sizzix embossing folder. I fuzzy cut the piggy and the coins, mounted the piggy on an action wobbler and added a paper candy. 

Here you can see it in action:



This card will also go into the TAWS challenge and into the Snippets Playground - since I used a little snippet of turquoise paper for the coins and sentiment.
Animals/ Fall is the challenge at  the Die Cut Divas - orange is a fall color and a pig is an animal...
And lastly it will go into the Simon Says Challenge - We're going dotty! Lots of dots on this card...

And here are the inspiration pics:

                                   

Did YOU have fun with the video? I sure hope you did! See you tomorrow, have a great evening and thanks for all you very enjoyable comments - I LOVE them!

Oh how sweet Cornelia! I love the little action movie too :) Hope this doesn't get the girls starting whining on again about having a pet pig in the Playground :)

Süß, das Schweinchen. Man sieht geradezu wie es sich schüttelt, um keine Münzen in den Bauch zu lassen - es wartet wohl auf Scheine???

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
