TAWS BIC #52

Hi Everybody,

I am on vacation again, so I won't have too much time visiting your blogs, but I'll catch up when I'll be back home.....
I love the TAWS inspiration photo, but found it quite difficult to come up with something - to capture the movement and the delicate colors....

I don't feel I was very successful with my attempt - its definitely too green, but I do like the card that came out of this:


I used the Holiday Sparkles set for the background - I heat embossed it onto watercolor paper. I then added watercolor. The black strip on the side is from Awesome Blossom and the sentiment is from the set All about You.


I added generous amount of Stickles to the snowflakes (shows a little bit in the picture), some liquid pearls to the black dotted strip and lastly added the bird (Bird Brain), which I fussy cut. 



Thanks for visiting my blog today!

Your colour scheme is great; the green, white and black are very eyecatching.

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.

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
