Hero Arts Scramble #73

Hi, today my friend Kanan was hosting the Scramble over at the Hero Arts flickr group. I had to play, of course....

She had some challenging themes:

P-1 : Old Fashioned & Earth -

Old-fashioned – something inspired by vintage design or old look

Earth – your own interpretation of the word earth (say, earthy colors (shades of brown, blues, greens...any other you can think of) , the shape of earth)

OR

P-2 : Simplicity & Layers -

Simplicity – displaying a clean and simple design

Layers – you can use layered stamping technique or layers of papers or both, the choice is yours.

Of course I had to do the second options - easier and suits me better....




I used the Hero Arts Zig Zag Background Cling stamp at an angle, layered some Washi tape across, but the thinner one I first put on card stock paper, since I did not like the see-through of the background. I punched the speech bubbles and stamped the words inside. The little ampersand is Hero arts as well. Added some liquid pearls. 

And then I made a second card - Christmas themed, of course.....


All stamps are from the Hero Arts Decorate your Holidays set, except the strings, which are by Mama Elephant - Party Kit


I put some bling on the baubles.

Thanks for hosting this Kanan - I had so much FUN!

Thanks once again, Cornelia for playing in my first Scramble. I love both your cards, so beautiful!! Great use of washi tapes and the ornaments look so gorgeous. I can hardly make one card within 90 minutes, you did a great job with two cards. :-)

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.
