Paper Smooches combined with AAA cards

It's anything goes at Paper Smooches, which is just swell, since the AAA card challenge has a lot of requirements....

I had to pull out my Christmas stamps recently, so while they were out I figured I might as well use them...
I made the corrugated paper strip with a paper crimper and punched some holes in it. The cute snowmen are by Paper Smooches- Freezy Fellas and the sentiments are Paper Smooches - Christmas sampler. I stamped those on acetate - for the plastic requirement. Added some twine and attached everything with a brad.


I happen to really like this card - I first was afraid I wouldn't manage to keep things CAS, but I think I succeeded.




And here are the 5 images for the game:


AAA-Corrogated01


 I am also adding this card to the Snippets Playground - add a snippet - my snippet is the acetate - is from some clear packaging - I keep all of those flat pieces of plastic for uses such like this.....nowadays this is called upcycling - I just love that word!
And I am linking it with A Blog named Hero - color it in - colored the snowmen in parts....
and lastly I am trying out (again) for the GDT search at Paper Smooches with this card

Thanks you all for visiting and leaving such fabulous comments - I LOVE them!

Hi Cornelia, I'm late in commenting on the Playground, so please excuse and also my MIA for a while! Saw this highlighted by our Miz Pixie, and zipped over for a closer look at this cutie. Love the snowfaces peeking out of those circles, but really impressed with the way you've designed with the very dimensional corrugated paper. Totally cool design, great card! TFS & Hugs. Hope all has been well with you. I'm loving your lightbox!

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

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
