Skipping Stones Design October Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,

its blog hop time at Skipping Stones Designs.
You probably arrived from the SSD blog.



I used that wonderful bird from the set Best of Birds
I used PP for my background. I stamped the sentiment twice  - once on white card stock and the second time on the PP. No problems to do that with my Misti. I colored the bird with Inktense pencils. Added some white gel pen accents. Added a strip of brown card stock on the left hand side.



Your next stop on the hop is Debra - she has an amazing card waiting for you.
In case you get lost - just go back to Skipping Stones Design and you'll find the complete list there.

Here is the complete line-up:
Cornelia - you are here
Jessie
Debra   
Martha
Tanja

Of course, we have a blog candy. It will be a stamp set of the winners choice. The winner will be announced next Friday. In order to win you must subscribe to the SSD blog and like our Facebook page. You also must leave a comment on each blog. For extra entries you can follow our blogs.

Oooh, a very autumnal feel for this clever card. Love the double stamping of the sentiment and coloring on your pretty bird. The whole look is lovely.

The addition of the brown strip
on the side anchors the limb to
something outside of the card.
The bird is colored great.
thanks for sharing a wonderful card.
Schaut richtig klasse aus!
Ich war ein paar Tage nicht online, muss jetzt alles nachholen ;)
Liebe Grüße und ein schönes Wochenende

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...
