LOVE U

Playing the challenge game.... combining 3 challenges here
The Paper Players - sentiment only
Curtain Call - see picture below
Time out - Love/Friendship



I LOVE this card - I used this humongo "U" that I got on ebay a long time ago (Stampin' up) and have so far neglected....inked it up with neon pink ink



Puddled some distress inks at the bottom and added the love and sentiment - both from Papertrey.
Added a cork heart (SS die) and an enamel dot to fulfill the color requirements and to balance the card. On the photo below I have added some Stickles to the love die - not sure which one I like better - with or without Stickles - what do you think?

What a clever idea to puddle the blue in the bottom of the U - I love the way you curved your sentiment around the inside too. Thanks for joining us for our CAS Sentiment Challenge over at The Paper Players this week!

What a cool idea, Cornelia ... the puddle of colour inside the huge U is brilliant ... and my vote goes for stickles on the love ... it's brilliant with the neon pink! I'm delighted you're joining us at Time Out ... but can't find your card in the gallery ... linking problem perhaps? Anita :)

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

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! Mirror Image stamp ,  Two Cats in a Tree If you want a video tutorial on how to do this I can highly recommend you watch THIS VIDEO on youtube. Explains it all in very little time! Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
