Cure for the Monday Blues #19

After my win for the last Cure for the Monday Blues challenge (you can see the card HERE) I felt really motivated to play again - thanks Taheera! What really captured me in the inspiration photo was the globe - as soon as I saw it I knew exactly what to make - I just had to wait for my new order from My Favorite Things....and I got it in time! 

So without further ado - here is my card:


I also incorporated the wood ceiling and the banner on the wall. And all the other colors you can find them in the picture as well. 



I mounted the white card stock panel onto chipboard to give it more substance and dimension. The patterned wood paper is from Michaels. I made the little banners with Washi tape.

I leaned on the sketch from the STAMPlorations challenge - there is still time to play, but you have to hurry, time is running out!
I am also linking this card with the Simon Says Wednesday challenge - Anything goes

Fun take on the photo inspiration Cornelia.
I'm just waiting for my glossy accents to dry on my MUSE card before I can take a photo.(I don't have any glossy black dots!) :)

Way to go with your previous Cure for the Monday Blues win, and I'm calling winner winner with this one as well! Brilliant take: your globe and sentiment are so eye-catching on their tilted 'ceiling inspired' paper! Fabulous!

Nice card, Cornelia. The woodgrain background is very effective.

Thanks for visiting and leaving such a nice comment. I am glad you like my pizza box! Unfortunately my health does sometimes prevent me from getting into my studio but I do what I can.

Hope you are having a good weekend.

Love how you were inspired by the photo! Aren't the Cure for the Monday Blues challenges addicting?

Perfect choice of stamp set for the globe from the inspiration!! I love how you added your panel at an angle to mimic the feel of the room, and love the addition of the woodgrain patterned paper too! Thanks so much for playing to find a Cure For The Monday Blues!

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!

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

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...
