Shopping Our Stash Challenge 277

Hi Everyone,

This is my second week 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 Gobble 'til you Wobble (make a Thanksgiving or a Thank you card)


I pulled out this ancient set by Doodle Factory - not sure if they still exist and stamped on Yupo paper and heat embossed. You have to be careful with the heat - the paper warps very easily. I colored the pumpkins with alcohol inks and added the die cut sentiment (Penny Black)


Grab Our Badge!




The challenge runs until Midnight November 14th - come and play along!

Happy Stamping!

Wow what an awesome CAS card, I so admire crafters that can make a one layer card look awesome. Great colouring on the pumpkin too.
Oh Cornelia, this is gorgeous!! I've never heard of this paper but it looks amazing colored so beautifully. I thought you made this card using some kind of modeling paste and a stencil, it has so much dimension and texture!!!
CAS is hard for me and, like Barbara, I admire and envy the people who can make a one layer card look this stunning.
Thank you for sharing and being the guest designer for a second week over at SHOPPING OUR STASH.
Hugs,
Maria.

This is absolutely gorgeous! I had to look up what Yupo paper was, as I've never heard of it before, but I LOVE the effect you achieved using the alcohol inks on it.
Oh my goodness! Your card is AMAZING!!! We have been so blessed having you on board these last two weeks! I can't wait to see what you create next week! This is awesome! Thanks for Guest Designing for us at Shopping Our Stash! Cyndi, DT

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!
