Fusion Challenge

Hi Everyone,

just trying to get my card in in time for the Fusion challenge - I have not played there in a long time...



I used wood patterned paper, die cut the hearts with nesting Lifestyle Crafts heart dies. The flower is by Memory Box, I lightly colored it with pencils. The sentiments are Simon Says stamps - from the same set - Sending and Wishing (sss101475)


I love how this turned out - different from the usual red/pink heart Valentine's Day cards!


I am also linking this card with the Simon Says flickr goup - Love theme - stamps by SSS
with Flashback Friday - Got flowers
and with Shopping our stash - love theme

    Grab Our Badge!

We got a bit of snow last night - finally winter has arrived here - happy shoveling!

Ich hoffe, ihr seid nicht total eingeschneit, euer Haus hat noch sein Dach und ihr seid alle wohlbehalten zu Hause!!!
Deine Herz-Valentiskarte ist mal was ganz anderes. Ich denke, die kann man auch zu anderen Gelegenheiten verschicken.
Mir gefällt sie sehr gut, weil sie soooo anders ist.
Alles Gute, liebe Grüße,
Flo

Beautiful, Cornelia! Thanks for joining us at Fusion!
Hello Cornelia. I came over here from Vicki Flashback Friday challenge post and just wanted to let you know that I very much enjoy your card and post! An amazing job at interpreting the sketch! I also like that you went out the usual Valentine's hues for the hearts because the wood-grain hearts looks just lovely with the flower layered on top. Just beautiful! :) Have an awesome day!

I love the addition of the sprig of flowers to the wooden hearts.

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. 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!
