So Suzy Themes and Techniques March

Hi Everyone,

today's card is for the So Suzy March Themes and Techniques feature.


The theme is Flowers and Spring
The technique is Stencilling

My stamp supplies:
27-00051 R SC:
Outline Ranunculus, Tulip, iStencil, Birthday sentiment

Lets get started:


I stamped the ranuncula stamps onto a scrap piece of  Strathmore Bristol paper and colored them with my watercolor pens - very quickly - a blob of yellow in the center and a ring of orange around it and then blended the colors.



Did similar coloring with the tulip stamp and fuzzy cut them.


Selected a bright green card stock and sponged green inks over the stencil.


Took the stencil off and arranged the flowers.


Used Press'n Seal to keep the arrangement intact


And glued them onto my card base. Added the heat embossed sentiment and an enamel dot.



Hope you liked this!

By the way - do you know about the So Suzy Podcasts? They are so informative! The latest one is about selling your handmade cards - get rid of your stockpile and make money for new craft supplies :)

Der moderne Stencil im Hintergrund passt sehr gut zu diesen Blüten! Und die kräftige Farbkombination muntert einen gleich auf!

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!
