Memory Box Christmas Trees

Hi Everyone,

another quick post from me - my eye still hurts when I spend too much time on the computer....

I did a quick water color background, layering on colors.


I die cut the pine trees from Memory Box using silver glitter paper. The sentiment is by Technique Tuesday, heat embossed in silver. I left that little white strip on the left side of the card for balance.



I actually made two similar cards - gonna show you the second one tomorrow :)))

This is gorgeous - very eye catching, and a wonderful pop of color. Love your sparkle trees. Thanks for playing in our Mod Squad Challenge this week.
I love the color background and the contrast with the black and silver! What a wonderful combination. Thank you for sharing!

I'm working in reverse order, so the breath-taken away from the 'newer' extends 1000000% to the 'older.' Your shimmery trees, pretty background, silver embossed amazing sentiment...smitten! Completely smitten! Put your feet up and heal, my friend!

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.
