Paper Smooches - and more cards to showcase!

I have been so busy the last couple of days - no time to make a card.... This one I made a couple of days ago and did not find time to put this blog post together and time is running out on the Paper Smooches challenge - its anything goes.....

I used the Paper Smooches - Zoo Crew and Sentiment sampler for this card. The candle is from Michaels (I tilted the flame...) and the "make a wish" is by Avery Elle. I colored it with Copics and added  Paper Candy. 

I am also adding this card to the Snippets Playground

and to the Paper Smooches guest designer search for June

Oh, before I forget - the STAMPlorations May release blog hop is still going on - visit and leave a comment - there is lots of stamps to win

And now I wanted to share some more cards with you that I got from my blogging friends:

 This card is from Di from the Pixie's Snippets Playground - one of my favorite place to link up my card - if you are not familiar with it go and check it out - all you need to have is a snippet on your card - most of my cards have one on it, so I am there regularly. You can also win - I was the lucky winner of this fabulous heart die that you see on Di's card - thank you, Di!

This trendy watercolor card is form Susanne from Keep in touch! - I love the colors and the sparkly sequins. We are both German from the same area there and live in the US and are planning a get-together, but so far it has not worked out :( - our day will come!

This card is form Anita from My Papercraft World - you may have seen this beauty already on her blog - it is just gorgeous. there is this subtle sparkle and the stamping is impeccable - not to forget the beautiful colors! 

And lastly a card I just got today from my sister (no blog). She is very much in trend here with the watercolor background - so simple and yet so effective!

So thank you all - it is such joy to get a card in the mail - it is quite special to find a real letter buried among all the junk mail!

And thank you also for visiting - I am glad you took time to come by - thank you!
