STAMPlorations February Inspiration - Punny Cards

Hi Everyone, its INSPIRATION day at STAMPlorations! 

The DT girls made some beautiful cards to entice you playing with your stamps - STAMPlorations or otherwise..... 

For this inspiration post we want you to pull out your old STAMPlorations stamps. I am using a set that I truly think is under appreciated 

PATCHWORK FRENZY: Graphic Pentagons

I have used it in the past to create some cute animals (you can see them HERE and HERE) and I promised back then to make some more, but I never got around to do that...until now! I had so much fun, I made a whole series of it:






All you need is a punny sentiment and some googly eyes! Doodle the extremities, etc and voila you have a quick and funny CAS card!

 Semtiments by  Stampin' up (frogs), Michaels (bunny) and Technique Tuesday (crab)

Come on over to STAMPlorations and check out the Inspiration Posts. Perhaps you feel inspired to  CASE my card and link it up to the Inspiration CASE Playground. You don't need to use STAMPlorations stamps to play along; any stamps from any company are welcome, so long as your posts don't solely promote those companies.
The InLinkz gallery will be open until the 5th of the following month.
One winner will be randomly drawn from all entries to win a $15 gift certificate.

I am linking this set with Challenge up your life - one layer card
also adding this set to Flashback Friday - geometrical (those stamps are now a little over 1 year old, I ordered them before I started on the STAMPlorations DT - to have something to work with and in January I was with them for one year, yeahh!)

DAS kann man also auch mit diesen Stempeln machen!!! Auf solch eine Idee muss man erst einmal kommen.
Wunderbar deine Tiere mit ihren großen Augen und den z.T. langen Armen.

These are really so clever, and I never would have thought to make critters out of those shapes. Great with the punny sentiments, too.

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! 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
