Bubble Wrap

Hi Everyone,

I had to play with bubble wrap as part of Darnell's NBUS challenge! It was always something on my to do list, but I never got around to actually do it... Thankfully Darnell gave me the necessary push!



For both cards I used a NBUS set from Papertrey called Zappy Birthday and of course bubble wrap. For the first card I dripped alcohol ink on bubble wrap and stamped it off and for the second card I waited for it to dry. Pierced all those bubbles to flatten them out and adhered my sentiments/arrow to the plastic. 


I have a third card in the making - not sure, if I get it done before the challenge closes...

Fun, modern card, Cornelia! Not sure my trials will get made into cards--fun, though!

So much fun! Never thought to use bubble wrap on my cards, but very clever. I have an entire roll in my classroom, we use it for art projects all time! Adorable.

Oh brother, did you ever ace this bubble wrap challenge. It looks so terrific on your cards. Mine was a complete disaster.

Stamping with bubble wrap?!! How fun! The retro color combo with pop of magenta looks cool on the first card and the second card looks like a work of modern art! Thank you for joining at Seize the Birthday, Cornelia!

You rocked the bubble wrap art, Cornelia! How fun that you always wanted to give it a try! The comic book elements of both your cards work perfectly with the background! I love that you decorated the actual bubble wrap in your second one!! Thank you so much for playing in my NBUS Challenge #10 and joining in the optional theme!! Hugs, Darnell

Awesome cards, love what you created with bubble wrap. I've used it to stamp texture on paper but never thought to use the wrap itself.

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

Addicted to Stamps and More #134 and Spotlight Sneak Peek

Hi Everyone, Its challenge time at  ATSM ! For the next two week its going to be CAS - just my thing! And hopefully yours, too! I made a birthday card, because for some reason I always need more and never seem to have enough.... I was inspired by this weeks Make it Monday , where the talented  Ashley Newell  shows us a video about  stamps and doodling. Since I  mainly own die cuts from Papertrey and not so many stamps that would fit this theme I made my own out of fun foam, using my latest Papertrey dies (just got the order a few days ago) and cut those in fun foam - it works so well - voila - you have our own stamps, spending only a fraction of the money! I doodled around the stamps as you can see. Gives you kind of a cool effect....a little more tremor and one would think I drank too much ;) Added tiny enamel dots - do you know about this month House of Cards challenge - its enamel dots - thought I'll let you know..... Our wonderful spons...
