Shopping Our Stash Challenge 276

Hi Everyone,

I was lucky to have been chosen as Guest Designer over at Shopping Our Stash - in case you don't know its a weekly challenge, where you are supposed to use something in your stash - preferably something neglected ;)

This weeks challenge is Home Sweet Home (use a house or a any building)


Of course I used this to make a Christmas card - pulling out a set by Winnie & Walter that has not seen any love in a looooong time. I water colored the background and I teamed it up with a CUTplorations die and a word stamp by STAMPlorations. The little die cut star is by Lil Inkers.


Grab Our Badge!


The challenge runs until Midnight November 7th - come and play along!

Happy Stamping!

Winnie & Walter - join in to win

This is Beautiful!!! the image, the watercolouring, the scene and the sentiment. Congrats on the GDT for us at SOS.
Hello Cornelia and thank you for being our guest designer this month over at SHOPPING OUR STASH.
Your water colored background on this card just took my breath away, I'm always amazed at the crafters who can achieve this gorgeous blending of water colors, I've tried but I always end up with a muddy mess.
I love the beautiful glow behind this little church and the way the stars shine so bright on this amazing night sky.
Hugs,
Maria Rodriguez.

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...

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!
