Christmas Card with Brads

Hi Everyone,

I thought I missed the deadline for Less is More, but I checked - just to make sure and yeahhh, there are a few hours left to play along! 
So I ran into my craft room and rummaged through my supplies .... came upon those ancient brads - I think I got them on the first ever craft fair I went too and they are still NBUS. Time to change that!


Aren't they cute? And I also wanted to increase my Christmas card production - its already August, not much more time left....to be exact - only 20 weeks until December 25th - and you gotta mail out those babies.....

So I pulled out an iStencil - its called Winter Striped Tree for my background.


Attached those cute little brad critters and added the sentiment - its from STAMPlorations. A star brad on top of the center tree and some gold thread.



Happy Christmas Card Making!

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) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
