Joy Clair - Hoppy Birthday

Hi Everyone,

today I show you two cards I made with my favorite March release stamp set:
Hoppy Birthday!


I just love those frogs. Especially that goofy one with the cupcake on its head! Its just hilarious! As you can see I stamped him repeatedly , but only colored one - makes it stand out and is also less "work". Heat embossed the sentiment.




For my second card I did some sponging and masking. Added white gel pen accents. The background embossing is from Papertrey.

Have a TOADally awesome day!

Okay, that first one IS hilarious, I'm still laughing. And the second is perfect. Love the embossing on the card base. Of course, it goes without saying, they are both expertly colored.

A duo of *toad-al* awesomeness! The cupcake-sporting frog is a scream! Your sponging captivates me. Please, what's your secret to your background perfection? So impressive...

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. 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) fiftee...

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

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!
