CASology and Color Throwdown

I have some great news to share - one of my cards got showcased on the Paper Crafters Library on Tuesday, I got HM at CASology last week with THIS card and I got HM at Color Throwdown with THAT card! I hope you don't think I'm bragging - I try not to and usually just quietly list my accomplishments on the sidebar, but this week I just wanted to share my excitement!

--X--


I combined CASology and Color Throwdown. That cue word "roots" stumped me for a bit until I thought root veggies...Found this poem on the internet and printed it onto card stock. 



No idea from what company the radish stamp is, but the birds are Lavinia.


Sponged the hills/earth. Not sure why the radish looks so red in the picture - I used mainly orange ink for it, just a touch of red to give it some shading.....
Also not sure whom to send this card to.....perhaps some radish lover....

I am also linking this card with Addicted to Stamps and More - anything goes

Have a great day and thanks for all your wonderful comments - they really make my day!

Congrats on all your HM's and that! It's not really bragging. We all know how excited we all get when we get recognition for our work. It makes you feel good and sometimes you just need to share that excitement with fellow card designers! :-). I'll jump up and down and squeal with you anytime! :-). Love your radish card! Great interpretation of the cue word. :-)

Das Radieschen ist schön!!! Und dann noch solch einen laaaangen Spruch dazu!!!
Nein, ich mache nur fast jeden 2. Tag Karten, dann mehrere, stelle aber jeden Tag nur eine ein. Sonst wird es zu viel für euch zum Schauen an einem Tag ;-)))

Liebe Grüße

Congratulations on all your recognition! Definitely well deserved!
Isn't it funny how we sometimes make a card that fits a challenge perfectly but then don't know whom to send it to? Maybe you know someone who likes to garden?

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
