STAMPlorations Inspiration #100

Hi Everyone,
its inspiration time at STAMPlorations! And a special post it is - it is the 100 inspiration post! Hurrahhh! Now that is  reason to celebrate!


My stamp set:
preview-BGBCDinoThings

 You probably all know I love those Dino Things by Becca Cruger! Could not resist in creating my own Pterodactyl Vampires here. Did some masking, sponging and water coloring and added various Washi tapes. Its a one layer card - not sure if the Washi counts as layer....


Make sure to leave a comment for your chance to win one of the stamp sets featured by the DT in this post.

 So look at all those fabulous cards the Inspiration Girls made and leave them some love! It may pay off :)

Linking up with:
Crafty Calendar Challenge - Halloween
Challenge up your Life - Hocus Pocus
CASology - Spooky
 Happy Stamping!

Such a fun card, Cornelia. Love how you've taken a non-Halloween image and adapted it for the occasion.

Bwahahahahahahaha! Does that sound like a wicked laugh? This card just delights me and proves, once again, how clever you are. And with the talent to pull it off, to boot. Really spooky background and those funny, horrific, bloody-mouthed pterodactyls just makes me grin...even though I'm supposed to be scared.

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
