Stencil Fun and another card

Hi,

I recently discovered this new stencil company called i stencil and had to order a bunch. This is the first card I made with my loot....


I just love it! I actually made it for the Just us Girls challenge, but then totally forgot to write up the blog post and link it....oh well. I do like the colors and of course that stencil, its so up my alley!


The die cut is by Memory Box -  Poppy die, the sentiment is CASual Fridays and Simon Says stamps.

So I am just linking it up with CAS on Sunday - Stencil it and with Seize the Birthday - just going with the birthday theme.


My second card is for Color Throwdown  - I not often succeed in making a card for a weekly challenge, but this time it worked for me....


I used a TAWS set for this - its called Tropic Topic, stamped it and fuzzy cut it. Puddled some turqoise at the bottom. The leaves are clear embossed on the green strip.  I added the sentiment - its from Your Next Stamp.


I  used the sketch from Less is More and I am also linking this card with TAWS - they are having their birthday celebration this month!

     


See you tomorrow - if we don't drown in snow - but New York is going to be hit harder than NJ and I just love it anyhow!

And don't forget to come back later today - its going to be the first day of the STAMPlorations spotlight week!

Happy Stamping!

Die grüne Karte ist ja solo leuchtend, da braucht man fast eine Sonnenbrille, um sie anzusehen. Ich finde sie toll!!!
Auch deine zweite Karte ich mal wieder DER hit geworden.
Liebe Grüße, Flo

Übrigens: ich kann dir ein Päckchen (aus meinem Blog) schicken, allerdings muss ich dann die "goldene Kugel" entweder entfernen, was dir bestimmt nicht gefallen wird
oder sie dermaßen zusammendrücken (damit alles in einen Umschlag passt), dass sie ungenießbar wird - was dir wiederum auch nicht gefallen kann *hihi* ;-)))

Wow, Wow, and more Wow!
These are fantastic.
That first one is totally shocking and make me seasick ... in a good way.
Love it and the pop of yellow.
Equally gorgeous and striking is the flamingo one and a great take on the sketch.
Thanks so much for sharing and taking part.

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
