Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking Swan Song Blog Hop

Hi, its so much fun to be part of this blog hop to thank all those wonderful people at Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking magazine for their hard work and inspiration throughout the year!
Thanks Ladies - you did an amazingly fabulous job! You never cease to inspire me. Thank you so much!

I am taking part in this through the STAMPlorations blog. Life got too busy to add myself in separately....

For both cards I used the sets Rosebuds and Bold Sentiments: Hello from STAMPlorations.

I added a black strip on the side on the card above and treated it with glossy accents. Added the black splatters. I am in love with splatters......they make any card look good. If I am not happy with what I created I either add splatters, sequins or glitter and voila - there is usually dramatic improvement!

Beide Karten sind super!!! Ja, Klekse sind immer gut. Ich habe jetzt auch solche "Kleksflaschen", um Hintergründe damit zu gestalten. Du wirst sie bald sehen.
Liebe Grüße, Flo

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...

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) fiftee...

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!
