TAWS# 40 and Good Bye to Cath

Hi, my friends,

I am back with a new card - I have been insanely busy with work, so I had to take a break. But tonight I freed up some time. I wanted to play with the TAWS challenge and I also wanted to make a card for Cath, who is leaving - how sad for all of us! I really enjoyed her challenges, her inspiration pics and all the fun she brought to blogland. Her posts on Moxie Fab always put a smile on my face. I discovered so many things thanks to Cath. Her generosity is amazing!

So here is my card for you Cath::

You were an inspiration to all of us and you encouraged us to tackle new territories with your challenges.

I enjoyed your amazing pictures you shared with us.

You brightened my days.

I will miss you!

I wish you well in your future endeavors.

Perhaps you will not vanish completely.

Many hugs,

Cornelia

I used my favorite TAWS set Bird Brain. I heat embossed the birds, colored them with Copics and fuzzu cut them. The sentiments are TAWS - all about YOU. Used a Martha Stewart punch and some patterned paper.

I later decided to put tiny gems into the crown, but I only had yellow ones in that size. I do like the gem-less version a tick better.

Here is the TAWS inspiration picture:

The other challenge I will link this card up with are:

Snippets Playground - use snippets

Paper Players - Wildlife

So if you want to say good-bye to Cath too, then make a card - it does not need to be a need one and link it up HERE. I am sure she'll appreciate that!

I had fun making this card! Have a nice evening!

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) fiftee...
