Memory Box - Pink

Hi Everyone,

I have to sneak in a card for this month Memory Box challenge, before it closes...The topic is pink.
Here is my pink card:


I used the Honeyblossom sprig die to make this card - die cut in fun foam, stamped, heat embossed, stamped with distress ink, let it dry and sponged. A little strip of PP and I die cut the Memory Box THANKS with black glitter paper and added a gem. 



I first didn't like it that much, thought it is too busy, but its growing on me. In fact I start to really like it!

And now I want to share a wonderful picture I got from my blogging friend Gundi from Papierelle. She started to use encaustic and the result is amazing! She raffled off one of her creation and I was the lucky winner!


I just LOVE this! Have to find a frame and then it will get a permanent  spot in my house!
She also made that beautiful card to accompany the picture!


Pure gorgeousness! If you don't know her blog you have to pay her a visit - I promise, you won't be disappointed!

Happy Stamping!

Ooooh how I love black, white and vibrant pink together. Your card is definitely not busy but is certainly is beautiful. That white embossing with the white diecut is really lovely. Your win and its accompanying card is breathtaking. Hope this woman knows how talented she is. Congrats on winning this piece of art.

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!
