Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,

I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton!



I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti.

You may have arrived from the fabulous Eunji - its a hard act to follow her....


I got those gorgeous Peonies Dies from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom.



Here are my supplies:

Petal Cut Peonies Standalone Dies

 I also made a second card with the same supplies:


I used the peonie dies to make a stencil and sponged in pink and red and added a left over leaf from my first card as well as an enamel dot. What you can't see is that I used clear embossing paste over my stencil - it make the image look crisper.


Your next stop on the hop is Jenny Lee - she has an amazing card for you in store! If you get lost - just go back to So Suzy or The Ton and you'll get the complete hop order there.

The hop will go until November 23rd, the winner will be announced November 25th for Black Friday Shopping . The amazing prizes: $25 GC So Suzy Stamps, $25 The Ton and Bunkie Bag

Happy Hopping!

Here are all the stops on the hop:

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!
