Welcome to 2 new Members and a White Card

I have been incredibly busy the last few days and it looks like its going to be like that for the next weeks.....But it has always been like that - as soon as thanksgiving rolls around all sorts of things pop up and eat up my time. Do you feel the same way? But tonight I took some time - I needed to get my mind off stuff and made a card. But before we get there I have more important business to take care of. i have two more new members to welcome to my blog:

Linda (no blog I'm afraid)

and

  Shirely.

Shirley is a master of CAS cards, go pay her a visit - you won't be disappointed!

I have a welcome picture for you Ladies:




The sculpture is by Anna Chromy and is titled Olympic Spirit. It stands outside the Archaeological Museum in Athens. I like it a lot - so dynamic!


And now the card, of course. I made this for Inkspirational - White is the theme.


I made another batch of embossing paste - the recipe you can find HERE. I took one of my TCW stencils, took a PTI star die and masked the star of the stencil with washi tape. I then smeared the embossing paste onto the stencil, which I had taped onto textured card stock and let it dry. 


I used a few different stencils - I may show some of the cards later (they are not yet finished....). YOu can see it a bit better in the close-up:


I die cut two stars using glitter paper and mounted them on foam tape. The sentiment is Mama Elephant - Merry Greetings.

I am entering this card into the CHNC challenge - anything Christmas and because of the technique I am also entering this into the Simon Says Monday Challenge - it's a Mystery

I got inspired to make this card by a wonderful card from Andrea - Bluetenstempel is her blog, you can visit and check it out.

Thanks for visiting me today - stay well!

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
