Guest Designing for JUGS #347

Hi Everyone,

this is my inspiration for Just Us Girls second week challenge:


It is trend week and the technique is spotlighting. This is kind of hot right now - seeing it all over blog land. And it does look really cool and its perfect for all of us with limited coloring skills, like myself... 

I wanted to use this beautiful Technique Junkie stamp - got it in April at the Allentown stamp Fair. It was begging me to be inked up....
The sentiment is by Neat&Tangled. Added Bakers twine. 


Always wanted to do spotlighting?? Now is the time to do it! Can't wait to see what you create!

Happy Spot Lighting!

Cornelia!! I've heard of this technique, but I've never seen it used so beautifully! HOW did you do this? It seems you've used a circle stamp, but then colored, too? Tutorial, please? xx

Did you say something about limited coloring skills???? I don't believe it! Not from what I've seen...think you're a bit too hard on yourself. To me, You can do anything. (No, there is nothing nefarious about that statement.) This card just proves my point...it's exceptional. Once again, your eye for design creates an extraordinarily gorgeous card. Love this spotlight technique and you do it perfectly.

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

Addicted to Stamps and More #134 and Spotlight Sneak Peek

Hi Everyone, Its challenge time at  ATSM ! For the next two week its going to be CAS - just my thing! And hopefully yours, too! I made a birthday card, because for some reason I always need more and never seem to have enough.... I was inspired by this weeks Make it Monday , where the talented  Ashley Newell  shows us a video about  stamps and doodling. Since I  mainly own die cuts from Papertrey and not so many stamps that would fit this theme I made my own out of fun foam, using my latest Papertrey dies (just got the order a few days ago) and cut those in fun foam - it works so well - voila - you have our own stamps, spending only a fraction of the money! I doodled around the stamps as you can see. Gives you kind of a cool effect....a little more tremor and one would think I drank too much ;) Added tiny enamel dots - do you know about this month House of Cards challenge - its enamel dots - thought I'll let you know..... Our wonderful spons...
