Crafting with a Friend

 Hi Everyone,

I had such a great afternoon - one of my crafting friends came over and we made cards together! The first two cards my friend designed for me to make. Aren't they pretty?



The layered flowers are by Simon Says. The little leaves on the first card are Papertrey as is the sentiment. The sentiment on the second card is I also by Papertrey .


I even decorated the inside (was not my idea...)


And then I played around with this pretty Altenew set she brought


and made another Simon Says card - this time with water color paper. I stamped with distress inks and spritzed them before stamping.



The cards I designed for her I'll show you in a later post - gotta keep some goodies to post for those times when I have no or little time to craft...

Must be so wonderful to have someone to craft with. Can just imagine the giggling that would go on and all the help you would give each other with new ideas etc. All of your cards are so beautiful and love all the floral stamps you used. Those butterfly stamps by Altenew are some of my favourites and love the way you stamped them with that sprinkling of black ink across the front. So excited to see you at Just Add Ink and hope you can come back again!!

Wow! Busy day in the craft world. All these are gorgeous. Each is like a walk through a garden. The colors of the first are lovely and unique. They all look hand painted, as is the trend I've been seeing in the blogosphere. You've use your crafty time well.
So beautiful!! Thanks for playing along with DoubleClick Skittles!!!!!

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.

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!
