TAWS Be Inspired #47

For a while I have a new member on my blog that has somehow escaped my customary greeting - so sorry .... I want to welcome


and I am very happy to have you here. Hanna has a wonderful blog - she is very creative and I can highly recommend you check out her blog! 
Here is my welcome picture for you:


It is a vase by Miyashita Zenji. I saw this last year in Cornell University, Ithaca. They have beautiful museum - definitely worthwhile to visit. I hope you like this as much as I do.

Time for another Be Inspired challenge at TAWS - an inspiration picture just up my alley!



I used my brand new set called Pillow Talk from TAWS to make this card. I won this set with THIS card. I had it on my wishlist for a while - its just so cool! Thanks Allison!!!!!



The yellow pattern I heat embossed to make it stick out a bit more. The bird is from the Bird Brain set  - colored with Copics and the sentiment is from Jibber Jabber.

I am also linking this card with Addicted to Stamps and more - make your mark
Snippets Playground - us a snippet (bird and sentiment)

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
