Super Day

Hi Everyone,
I have two cards for you today.
I have not played with Paper Smooches in a while - too busy with other schtuff, but it is time again!



I really liked the inspiration picture and tried to match it in my card. I used the set SUPER and heat embossed the cityscape in white. Sponged around it. Did the same with the sentiment. The car is also heat embossed and fuzzy cut. Die cut the panel with a Simon Says nesting die. Added some Bakers twine and used some colored paper as a frame. 
What do you think - did I capture it?



Here is a side view and you see the shininess of the embossed skyscrapers:


I am also linking this card with 
Make My Monday - embossing

------------

And now for my second card: 
Made that for the Little Tangles challenge.

I finally managed to buy that cute stamp set - for once it was not sold out......


I made the pink strip with water color. Colored the cats with Copics and fuzzy cut them and the ball. Added Bakers Twine. the cats are mounted with foam tape.
That is the sketch;
  


I am also linking up this card with:

Happy Meow Day to all of you!

Both cards are wonderful, I particularly like the way you have the gradient on the sky in the top card.

I think I would have missed the yellow in the original photo but it looks fabulous splashed against blue and white on your card. The embossing really makes a difference. Thank you for joining us at Make My Monday. Marina DT

Das Puppenhaus so zu interpretieren - darauf muss man erst einmal kommen!!
Aber es gefällt mir sehr gut.
Die Katzenkarte ist super. Ich habe ein dickes Grinsen im Gesicht, denn so sind diese Pelztiere!!!
Liebe Grüße,
Flo

Dumb-struck, that's all, just dumb-struck. You nailed the inspiration piece in the first card and the second card is simply brilliant and completely charming. You're truly amazing.

Two delights, Cornelia! Your PS card is a charming translation of the inspiration photo - and a reminder that my PS products haven't been receiving much attention of late, either! Your kittens...just a ball of fun, those two! Super sweet; super creative, both!

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
