STAMPlorations Sketch Challenge #12

Hi my Friends, this is my second post today, for the House of Cards challenge inspiration please scroll down.
It's time for another sketch challenge at  STAMPlorations. I love this sketch (see below) - it has so many possibilities!



I used using Trendy Feathers, which I heat embossed and fuzzy cut. The sentiment is from the same set. The stitching I did with the PATCHWORK FRENZY: Graphic Squares set. The tilted panel is patterned paper. I sponged some butterscotch Adirondack ink onto the Kraft paper to make it look a tad more interesting. The Paper Candy I colored with Copics. I added some metallic copper colored thread and threaded everyting through an eyelet. 



This time Debbie from Indy's Design is joining us as guest designer - I am so glad she could join us. Debbie has created a really cute card - come on over and have a look! Besides that there are just wonderful cards from our DT to spark your Mojo!

I am also entering this card into the Snippets Playground - use a snippet (feathers)


The challenge ends May 30; the winner will be announced June 1. I hope to see you there! And don't forget to visit my

House of Cards blop post 


Thanks for coming over and have a great day!

I love your card! Your use of the feathers, and the way you embossed them is very striking. Very well cool design. I love the sketchy look of the card. One of the coolest card I've seen using feathers.

I was staring at your white panel and thinking you painted it with gesso or white paint and then distressed it -- then I read that it's patterned paper! Love those embossed feathers and how the paper brads coordinated with it!

Hi Cornelia! Love this card, those feathers are fabulous and such great stamping.

I managed to link you into the Playground (at number 30) - Mr Linky did get a bit stroppy and I had to upload your image to my laptop to get him to co-operate, but got there in the end :)

Hugs, Di xx

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

Addicted to Stamps and More #134 and Spotlight Sneak Peek

Hi Everyone, Its challenge time at  ATSM ! For the next two week its going to be CAS - just my thing! And hopefully yours, too! I made a birthday card, because for some reason I always need more and never seem to have enough.... I was inspired by this weeks Make it Monday , where the talented  Ashley Newell  shows us a video about  stamps and doodling. Since I  mainly own die cuts from Papertrey and not so many stamps that would fit this theme I made my own out of fun foam, using my latest Papertrey dies (just got the order a few days ago) and cut those in fun foam - it works so well - voila - you have our own stamps, spending only a fraction of the money! I doodled around the stamps as you can see. Gives you kind of a cool effect....a little more tremor and one would think I drank too much ;) Added tiny enamel dots - do you know about this month House of Cards challenge - its enamel dots - thought I'll let you know..... Our wonderful spons...
