Stampotique Challenge #281 - Background Love

Hi Everyone,

we at Stampotique have a brand new challenge starting - the theme is "Background Love". 



I used the Word Collage stamp for my background. Easy peasy. Colored in some of the words. The cute little Skunk I colored with water brush pens and fuzzy cut him. Added a little adornment from the Hive Flower and some thread.


Stampotique Challenges run every TWO weeks......
Please remember you can use any stamps for our challenge and you are allowed to have 2 entries per challenge. From all the current months entries we will draw 2 random winners who will each win a 30.00 gift certificate on the first week of the following month.

Have fun with backgrounds!
Hope to see you at the challenge!

Ach so, das ist ein fertiger Hintergrundstempel. Ich dachte, Du hast die Wörter einzeln gestempelt und dann zum Hintergrund zusammen gepuzzelt. Da dem nicht so ist, bekommt Deine Karte nur 4 von möglichen 5 Punkten ... *kaputtlach*
Eine ganz typische 'Cornelia'-Karte, Klasse gemacht und Stinki ist süß!!

What a great background stamp. You always use such fun and vibrant colours and I love them! Fun idea too to add the little hive flower and some thread x

Initially, I thought you stamped each word individually and thought, "What a lot of patience that took". Then I took a look at the stamp (duh!). But how you highlighted it and the colors you used on your critter makes this card brilliant. LOVE the tiny detail on the upper right with the thread. So charming.
Fun card and a great background!

Coloring the skunk in pinks and purple and adding that color to part of the background really gives a lot of life to your wonderful card, Cornelia.
Fantastic creation! The pinky purple skunk is super fun. Thank you for sharing your card with ATSM!

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
