Stamplorations July Challenge #9

Hello Everybody, its time again for another challenge at


you gonna love it - its STAMPS and GLITTER!



I had to play around with my new STAMPlorations stamp set 
Boxed Blooms and Bold Sentiments. I stamped the rose on patterned paper and colored it  with pencil. I used square Lifestyle Crafts dies to emboss and cut out he frame. I mounted the cover card stock with foam tape to give more dimension. The sentiment is from the same set. Lastly I added Stickles - you gotta need glitter here.....


Her are some close up shots to show you more detail:



Head over to the blog - we have a fabulous Guest Designer this month - I am sure you all know her  - its the amazingly talented Kimberly Wiener from Wienerhoneymooners. And of course our DT has some wonderful inspiration for you as well!

And her is the fabulous prize for this month:

   The challenge ends July 31, the winner will be announced August 6.

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

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.

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
