Joy Clair - Spring Flowers

Hi Everyone,

did you see this gorgeous April Flower set at the Joy Clair stamp release blog hop? I made two cards with it:


I really like the way this card came out! Did some masking and fuzzy cutting (the umbrella and the boots). I added glossy accents to the boots. The sentiment is heat embossed and I grounded everything with that enamel dot. The background rain stamp is by IO. 


Here you can see the glossy accents better.
My second card:





For this card I did a lot of masking and colored everything with Copics


Hope you liked this!
Go and visit the Joy Clair blog to see the inspiration cards from our talented DT! And don't forget to play with us in the Joy Clair March challenge - the theme is Spring and we have a beautiful inspiration picture to give you some colors to play with!

Die erste Karte kann ich hier leider nicht sehen, aber bei Joy Clair habe ich sie mir angeschaut.
Da regnet es aber sehr heftig!!! Na ja, die Gummistiefel stehen sogar schon in einer Pfütze!!!
Hast du für die Regen"striche" einen Stempel oder sind die etwa alle per Hand gezogen???
Zutrauen würde ich es dir auf alle Fälle!!!
Die zweite Karte ist toll. Einen Schirm habe ich noch nie als Pflanzgefäß benutzt. Ob der das Wasser hält??? Oder stehen die armen Blumen immer im Trocknen??? *lachkaputt*
Liebe Grüße

What brilliant use of that background stamp, Cornelia ... love how the vibrant red brolly and shiny boots are the bright spots amid the rain! Your umbrella full of blooms is just delightful ... such fab masking and colouring! Hugs, Anita :)

Oh, I absolutely adore your umbrella cards! The red/black/white of the first is so striking; the flower-filled brolly of the second, day brightening! I need a pair of shiny red boots today...snowing and raining here...

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) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car

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
