Stenciled Thank You



Hi Everyone,

this is my second post today, if you are looking for the STAMPlorations inspiration post scroll down or click HERE.

I am trying my luck with Less is More today - a real challenge for me! Neutral colors is the theme. Not my thing.....

But here we go:


I was playing again with my iStencils. This one is called WAVY STRIPES. It is brand new, I hadnot yet used it.

6x6 PTP-108 wavy stripes

You can do really cool stuff with it, shifting it  for your second stencil layer. 


To keep with the color scheme I added a Kraft stripe and sentiment (by SSS).

I am also linking up with:
Just us Girls - Thank you
Inkspirational - Thank you with something new (stencil)

And if you are wondering how I made this card -hop over to STAMPlorations and you'll find the tutorial for it.


Happy Stamping!

You always do fabulous optical illusion cards, Cornelia, and this one is no exception! And I love your vibrant Folk Flowers card. Those colours really pop on the black, and I like the added dots :)

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!

Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
