Striped Thanks

Hi Everyone,

I am slowly getting back into card making after coming back from vacation and 1 1/2 grueling weeks at work. How nice to have some time again and not being completely exhausted!
Inspired by all the Little Things caught my attention - such a fun inspiration picture!


You see how I got inspired - mainly by the black and white striped raincoat, the black umbrella and some pink splatters - its after all raining!


I immediately thought of my iStencil collection when I saw the picture and picked one called PacMan Stacks that I really like. I added pink splatters. The thanks is by CUTplorations and I die cut it twice.


I took one of the rows and masked off the rest and sponged with black ink. I then took the opposite one and lined it up with the first row and did the same thing. Added some sequins and a left over strip of water colored paper.


I do need a lot of thank you cards right now, so you are going to see more of them soon.

And just in case you like that die - use code STAMPGIRLCORNELIA

Truth is...when I saw this little number I went all goggley-eyed. My admiration for your work simply grows and grows each time I see it. There are no words for this one except a deep heavy sigh meaning, "why didn't I think of that".

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...
