Stamp Connection #4

Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja from Little Art Cottage and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 3rd Sunday of the month and this is our forth transatlantic get-together!

This time it was Tanja's turn to pick the requirements :

One Layer & Stencil

just my thing - thanks Tanja!

And here is my card:



I bet Tanja did not think of Christmas when she suggested that theme - but who knows - I am curious! But to be honest, I did not think about it right away either - it just happened.....The truth of the matter is - I wanted to play in the One Layer Christmas card challenge - green is wanted there. 


I used an iStencil for this card - its called Winter Striped Tree. Its such a beautiful stencil. I used two shades of green, but it dos not really show. Sprinkled Brushos on it and let it dry. Added the sentiment - its from my all time favorite Christmas stamp set by STAMPlorations.






Now aren't you curious what Tanja did - I for sure are - lets go and visit her!

Moderne Weihnachtsbäume, das sieht richtig faszinierend aus!! Deine Karte hat ein wenig etwas von diesen Bildern mit optischer Täuschung. Wenn man auf einen bestimmten Punkt im Bild schaut, tut sich drumherum etwas ... (kann natürlich auch am Flackern meines Bildschirmes liegen .. *grins*).
LG Gundi

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
