Paper Smooches Sparks and New Member Welcome!

Hi Everyone,
its time for my monthly new member greeting!
Lets welcome in the order of joining:

Kathy from Stamps at Play
Tammy from My Craft Central
Tanja from Little Art Cottage
Lee Ann from Greyt Paper Crafts
Shalu from All by Heart
 
All of them have fabulous blogs - if you have time go by and visit and leave them some love - don't we all love that????
I am glad you Ladies found my blog and liked it enough to join! 

Of course I have a welcome picture for you:


This sphere is by Jason Schneider, who designs objects and furniture from cardboard - I love this - appeals to my love of patterns and all things geometric! I  hope you like it as much as I do!

And now my card:

I had a pretty busy week, but today I found some time to make a card for this week's Paper Smooches challenge. The inspiration picture is below.


I went with the colors, the subtle pattern of the baskets and the center frame and tried to recreate that modern, clean look. Used chalk board technique and heat embossed the sentiments. Other than that I used PP. The flower die cuts are by Papertrey. Added enamel dots.

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
