Muse Christmas Vision #51

Hi Everyone,

I am playing along with this weeks Muse Christmas Vision, where Marianne made this fun bauble Christmas card - of course, I have to play along!


I don't know why, but I immediately thought of the globe when I saw her card. that's why I pulled out my iStencil and inked it up with tumbled glass distress ink. Added the die cut sentiment (Simon Says) and some little stars using Brilliance Platinum ink. These little stars are by Ellen Hudson, as is the rest of the sentiment. Added little dabs of Stickles to the star centers.



Unfortunately I could not quite find the same stencil that I used on the iStencil website, but HERE is a similar one:
25-00040 Globe

And here is another view of my card:


Wanna play along? You still have some time.....
See you at the Muse Christmas Vision!

The die cut accentuates the globe and gives an even more rounded appearance. The contemporary look to your card works so well for a Christmas card. Thank you for sharing this beautiful card x. The brilliance platinum ink is so pretty too.

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.

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
