Stamp Connection #18

Hi Everyone,

Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja from Little Art Cottage and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 3rd Sunday of the month and this is our ninth transatlantic get-together!

This time it was Tanja's turn to pick the requirements:

 Heat Embossing on Embossing Paste

So I rummaged through my copious stencil supplies and picked that one from Crafters Companion with all those holes. I used dark grey card stock and white embossing paste. I immediately sprinkled metallic silver embossing powder onto the embossing paste. Then I let the paste dry, before I heat embossed it.


The embossing powder bubbles up a bit, which gives a lovely effect, I think.


I double die cut the word die (fun foam and pink card stock) - it is by Winnie&Walter. Added silver embroidery thread and some gems. 



Linking up with:
The Gossip Column  at W&W - precious metal (silver)

Lets check out  Tanja's artwork!


Happy Embossing!

I somehow missed this post, but then, it's been a busy month. Just noticed your card in Taheerah's gallery. Love the graphic look and the contrast that the black, silver and pink provide.

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) fiftee...
