Addicted to Stamps and More #140

Hi Everyone,

Its challenge time at ATSM! For the next two weeks we have a gorgeous photo inspiration for you:


Here is my card:



I used this antiqued mirror designer paper, that I once got dirt cheap at Michaels and it needs to be used one of those days....smeared embossing paste on it, using that fun ARTPlorations Stencil - Shutters and let it dry. The rose is by STAMPlorations from the set Blossom Overture. I water colored it and fuzzy cut it and mounted it on foam tape. the sentiment is also by STAMPlorations from the new set Fond Expressions

Our wonderful sponsor for this challenge is

The winner will get 7 digi stamps

Here is another view of my card - its a little tricky to photograph, because of the silver surface.


Come on and play with us and check out all the fabulous card by our wonderful DT!

Ha, das Papier habe ich auch (Geschenk von einer Freundin)! Ich habe es auch noch nie benützt... Wäre wahrscheinlich nie auf die Idee gekommen, darauf zu stencillen - danke für die Idee!

Love love love!
Thought you had found out how to create the distress mirror effect but it was the opposite way you used the stencil.
What can I say Cornelia love the rose too. :)

The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey.

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) fiftee...

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...
