House of Cards July Challenge

Hi Everyone,

We'd like to thank everyone who's played along with us so far here at House of Cards!  We've got a NEW format--we're now a monthly challenge with style teams posting inspiration weekly!  This week, the clean and simple team is showing off their creations using our monthly challenge prompt.  Please welcome the newest member of the CAS team- Toni. She wowed us with this card from our blog hop  challenge. 



For all of us who are bow challenged - it can be a tiny one....  even I can manage that, haha!



Thanks for checking us out!  We hope you're inspired to join us with your creations this week!

Check out our House Rules HERE before linking up!

And of course I had to play in a challenge with this card - as you probably can guess, it is this month TAWS challenge.


I used the TAWS sets: Kid n' Caboodle, Enchanted and Jibber Jabber for this card, did some paper piecing and used a Memory Box stencil.

I am also linking this up with this month Bizzy Becs Challenge - Anything goes
and with Seize the Birthday - anything goes

You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg.

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.
