Winnie & Walter - Thanks

Hi Everyone,

I want to say THANKS to Winnie&Walter for enriching the stamping world with their wonderful products and providing endless inspiration from their fabulous DT, Leading Ladies posts and now for their fantastic Birthday Bash celebration!


This might not be my last card I made for the bash.... Trying to play with all inspirations. With this card I am joining in with the watercolor and gold inspiration by Heather.


Again, the stamp and die are W&W. Did some gold embossing and some water coloring. I also did an inlaid gold glitter paper die cut under the faintly water colored THANKS - wondering, if I could link it up with the inlaid die cutting feature by Mayuri....I think I will let Mayuri decide - she can kick me out, if she thinks I am stretching this too far. I do like the effect - that thin glitter gold "shadow"....

I you are wondering how I did those gold splatters - real easy - sprinkled water on the card, added embossing powder and heat embossed it.
Added the gold thread under the paper thanks and glittered up the thanks with Wink of Stella.

Happy water coloring!

Oh my. This really is a winner in all categories. Love the splatter and the rich pink against that gold but my favorite it the way you've constructed the sentiment...spectacular.

Habe diese Woche auch schon mit diesem Set gearbeitet. Lustigerweise hatte ich gestern eine ähnliche Idee mit diesem Stempel! Habe sie aber noch nicht umgesetzt! "Great minds think alike" ;)
Schaut super aus!

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.
