The Cutting Edge

There is a brand new challenge out there created by Jackie Rockwell - I am sure you know her - she is a dynamo when it comes to creating challenges! Its called:



Right now there is a GDT search and I am trying to just squeeze in here at the last moment with this card:




The challenge is to CASE a card from the inspiration cards below:



As you can see I chose Amy Kollings card - at the left bottom, just because I liked it, had little time and I remembered those already put together die cuts in my snippets pile from a prior card (see HERE). I added the flowers - also left over scraps and Paper Candi. The die cuts are Papertrey Beautiful Blooms and Rainbow Stripes. The sentiment is Paper Smooches - Sentiment sampler.

And, since it involved so many snippets its going into the Snippets Playground!
And Paper Smooches has anything goes this week - I know, its only the sentiment this time......

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

Cool use of that die - I love how you thought outside the box!

Wow Cornelia! This really is fabulous - a perfect take on the inspiration card, and having peeked at the other entries I think you should be chosen! :)

I've also taken a look at the challenge, looks like fun but following an inspiration card is always my bete noir, sigh.

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...
