TAWS and a Gathering...........

Hi my friends,

I had such a fun weekend and I 'll share some of it with you. But first the card. I made it for the TAWS challenge




I used TAWS - Bitty Borders to make the background. The unicorn is TAWS - Enchanted. I colored it with Copics and used foam tape for the unicorn.  On the photo below you can see that I used silver foil for the unicorn's horn. 


This is the inspiration picture - its so pretty!



But now my fun activities - I went to a shoe box swap on Saturday - the first one I did. Everyone who come designs a card and then brings enough material for the whole group to recreate it. So you go home with a number of different cards, can play with different supplies and inks - so much fun!




Those are all our cards and below are all the Ladies participating in the event - we all hold up the card we designed!


Can you see how much fun we had?

Liebe Cornelia,
was für eine süße Karte! Der Hintergrund ist klasse geworden!
Es ist immer schön, in einer netten Runde zu basteln! Ich bin ein wenig neidisch, so viele bastelnde Freundinnen habe ich nicht in meiner näheren Umgebung!
Vielen Dank beim Mitmachen bei TAWS Be Inspired Challenge!

Hi Cornelia
I adore your unicorn card. I wish my CAS was as imaginative as this.
Isn't it great when great crafty minds get together and there's you proudly holding your Easter bunny!
Best wishes.

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...

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!
