Stamp Connection #30

Hi Everyone,

Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja from Little Art Cottage and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 3rd Sunday of the month and this is our ninth transatlantic get-together!

This time it was Tanja's turn to pick the requirements:
Halloween



I took my all time favorite Stampin' up set and stamped and masked the pumpkins. I heat embossed them in clear and sponged around in purple using a die cut mask. Added the sentiment (Marta Stewart) and some ancient sticker ants. I was surprised that they still were sticky.....


I also added white Sharpie accents. I just love how this turned out!


Lets check out  Tanja's artwork!



Happy Halloween everyone!

Awesome Halloween design. Love the sky and those pumpkins are so cute and just pop with that background.

LOVE jack-o-lanterns that look joyously evil. These two really meet that requirement and the multi-color stamping works great. You even got to use those ants. The perfect compliment to these gourds. The sentiment is perfection.
Hello Cornelia: I saw your card on the CAS on Friday challenge and I had to tell you it's amazing, love the deep, rich background for your awesome pumpkins, they look fabulous.
Love the cute ants, very sweet detail.
Hugs,
Maria Rodriguez.

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
