Muse #99

Hi, 

I am playing again at the Muse challenge - its #99 - alone this is a reason, but the other reason is Vicki Dutcher's fabulous inspiration card that I wanted to CASE. I first had something completely different in mind, but it did not work...      
So here is my second attempt:


And with that one I am happy.. I used the splatter stamp from Neat&Tangled. The die is Mama Elephant and the sentiment is Paper Smooches. Added some sequins. I also added the little cut-outs from the hello as extra splatters. First I though I cut some gold sequins, but then I thought - why bother, I already have some gold accents.... Quick and easy!
Here is Vicki's card:


Just discovered, that by pure chance my card fits the current Little Tangles theme for this month - Saying HELLO and also Happy Little Stampers  beautiful sketch challenge.
and with Simon Says Wednesday challenge - something new (brand new stamp and die)
Lastly I 'm adding it to Virginia's View - Clean Slate

January's Theme: Clean Slate

See you at the Muse - happy stamping and have a great day!

Love this card, Cornelia! It just has a fun, fabulous feel that makes you smile! Love that you used the extra die bits as splatter :)
Cornelia, love your take on Muse Challenge, love the way you replaced the circle cut-out with a splash and golden sequins with a script. The whole card is graphical and amazing! Thanks for commenting on my blog, it matters to me, and welcome to my blog. I become your follower too :)

That red splat really draws you into the card. Besides "hello" it says "fun".

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) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car

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
