Guest Designing for JUGS #348

Hi Everyone,

this is my inspiration for the Just Us Girls challenge:


It is color week and I lucked out with those juicy hot colors!!!


That sleepy, frazzled monster is by Whipper Snapper.Colored with watercolor on water color paper. The sentiment is by STAMPlorations. Added Washi tape and a strip of envelop liner paper and a yellow enamel dot.


Come and play along with JUGS - those colors will awaken your creative juices!

Linking up with:
Twofers - Tea, Coffee or me
Virginia's view - all about color

Holy...this guy looks exactly how I feel this morning. Right down to his color and expression. Fortunately, he has coffee to perk him up...not sure that's going to work for me. I love this card, though. Especially the bunny slippers. The colors are inspired, so fun and gay. This coffee lover's card hop is such fun to see. Whole bunch of talent out there but no one can outshine you.

Awww...Poor monster. He doesn't look confident in the powers of his morning cuppa joe.
Oh my gosh!! Cornelia!!! when did you sneak up on me to take this picture!!!!! how terribly embarrassing, LOL!!

This is just how I feel in the mornings when I'm coming downstairs at 4am. to get that much needed cup of coffee.
How adorable is this little cutie pie??!!!

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
