Muse combined with HOC

Hi Everyone,

I want to share a card I made for two challenges - the Muse and HOC. The Muse card is by Joan Bardee from Dear Paperlicious. Her card is so pretty and I love the non-traditional Christmas colors. It also fits nicely with the gorgeous HOC inspiration picture. So it's just natural to combine the two......




I used that gorgeous Hero Arts wreath and first heat embossed it in white and then again in pink. I die cut the Kraft panel with a stitched die by SSS. Added the sentiment - both the die and stamp are by Avery Elle. The little greenery is by Poppy Stamps. And then I added different colored pearls for more dimension and shine.



On the left is Joans' fab CAS card and on the right is the HOC inspiration picture.

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
