STAMPlorations Things with Wings Blog Hop Reminder

Hi Everyone,

this is a reminder that the fabulous Things with Wings Blog Hop from STAMPlorations is coming to an end :(
on April 30. I hope you had fun joining in!


Here is another card I made with my new CUTplorations dies - no wings here, but definitely celebrating spring!

Perhaps you remember THIS card I made for the first day of the hop? Well, today's card is made with the left overs. Why throw anything out? No way, not when it is so pretty!


As you can see, I die cut the flowers into Kraft card stock and then filled in with the insides from teh previous card. a little fiddly, but not too bad if you catch the little leaves on Washi tape, before you lift off the outlines. Fill them in, add Scotch tape on the back to prevent them from falling out and voila you have a new card! The drops are Nuvo drops.

Good to use those leftovers and in such a dramatic and gorgeous way. Really love that you used the kraft cardstock...makes those blooms really POP! Also think using the upper 1/3 of the card for you design was a stroke of genius.

Wenn jetzt die Sonne sich nicht gebauchpinselt fühlt und endlich rauskommt, um uns zu wärmen, dann weiß ich es auch nicht ...
Meiner Schulter geht es immer besser. Der Therapeut meinte heute, dass ich vielleicht noch 2 Monate brauche, bis ich wieder perfekt in Haus und Küche bin.
Ich werde weiterhin fleißig üben und mich quälen, damit er Recht behält.
Liebe Grüße

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
