So Suzy - Blowing Snowflake Tree

Hi Everyone,
 today we have a special feature for you at the So Suzy blog:
We are introducing the Blowing Snowflake Tree stamp - 
I am sure it sells out in no time......It is just gorgeous! 


Here is how I made my card:
I started to swipe grey ink over my card stock.


Added the tree with my Misti, to make sure I get a nice black impression.


I did have to stamp a few times.


I then stamped the tree again on a scrap piece of card stock, using Kaleidocolor ink.


I then punched three circles for the blue tree and sponged them in blue for more impact.


and fitted them onto the black tree.


Added Stickles, some enamel dots and a grey piece of card stock on the left.




Have fun and visit our fabulous DT and the So Suzy blog for more inspiration:
Cornelia - you are here

Wunderschön deine Karte Cornelia !! Der Stempel ist der Hammer und das ganze wirkt so magisch. Die Idee mit den Farbigen Kreiseln mit dem gleichen Motiv muss ich mir unbedingt merken einfach klasse.

Wünsche dir einen zauberhaften Tag.
Lieber Gruss

Wie man sich täuschen kann oder sich täuschen lässt. Ich dachte Du hättest Dir eine Kreisschablone genommen und dann direkt auf der Karte die blauen Kreise gemacht. Aber so wie Du es gemacht hast, ist es auch großartig und sieht wundervoll aus!!!

Awesome card, Cornelia! Spotlighting technique is not exactly new, but I get this tingling when you do it - somehow it always ends up looking something special!! <3

What a creative way to use that stamp, Cornelia. I love how the swiped ink pad gives the illusion of wind blowing.
Beverley said…
Beautiful stamp and love how you have swiped the ink to represent the wind. Beautiful use of the challenge colours and lovely to see you joining in on the celebration at CC&S. Hugs Bev x

That snowflake tree image is SO neat! I like how you've highlighted it with the blues and used the swipes of grey to show the wind. Thanks so much for taking part in our birthday celebration at CC&S! :)

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!

Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
