Sending Love and Hugs

Hi Everyone,

quite a while ago I made this card for a blogging friend of mine, who was feeling down and needed to feel better! 



This elephant cheered her up - at least a little bit. It is from Katzelkraft. The "floor" is made with Brushos and the elephant is colored with water colors. The sentiment is a Simon Says die cut, This card is a CASE from a card I saw on Hermine's Place a while back, but I can't find the correct link to her card. However, If you don't know her blog - I highly recommend it. Its fabulous!

I always have trouble photographing horizontal cards - so I have two versions here - one standing and the second one lying down on PP. They always get distorted by my camera. Not sure what to do about it....well, my solution is to make vertical cards......

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...
