So Suzy - Birthday Present

Hi Everyone,

do you need as many birthday cards as I do? I seem to be constantly needing them. So I decided to use this fun little present from from So Suzy Stamps to make yet another birthday card.


My Supplies:




Here is how I made my card:


Stamped the present twice onto silver shimmer paper and colored the presents.Fuzzy cut them.


Sponged my background with distress oxide ink and added water splatters for more interest.



Used a stitched die to create a "frame/border". Heat embossed the sentiment in white onto black card stock.


Mounted the sentiment and presents with foam tape for more dimension. Added Nuvo drops.
You see the shimmer a bit better on the obliqued picture.

Happy Stamping!

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.
