Muse #82


Hi Everyone,

I just got back from vacation - having missed my nightly card making session .... so I took some time this evening to get back into the swing of things! And what better than this weeks Muse challenge to start again. Bobby from Bits & Pieces made such a beautiful card - you can see it below.
And here is my take on it:


I liked the ombre coloring, which I kind of have here and the swirly pattern. The stamp I used is by Autumn Leaves - I have not used that set in  a while, although it is so pretty. I inked it up with a Kaleidocolor ink pad and spritzed the same colors around the stamp. Added some sequins, as you can see. 


Here is Bobby's gorgeous card:



And before I end I want to thank all of you for leaving me so many wonderful comments! I enjoyed them so much! I am still trying to catch up, but I try to visit you to over the next couple of days.

I am also adding them to the current Simon Says Wednesday challenge - Anything Goes

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
