Keep Calm

Hi Everyone,

I am in full blown Christmas card mood.......
and here is a very quick CAS card with that funky Katzelkraft stamp Big Cat #9 that fits just about any occasion....


I intentionally left the background white (and its quicker that way anyhow). I colored the cat with Inktense pencils and gave it a hat (Tim Holtz) - did some masking for that. The sentiment is also from Katzelkraft, its from the Keep Calm Set.

 I used Stickles on the hat brim.



Are you going to make some Holiday cards this weekend?

Happy Stamping!

There's that cat again...looking like he had too much cheer the night before. But he's so festive with his vivid hat and eyes. The more I see of him, the more I love him.

Diese Katzen sprechen einfach für sich!!!
Diese hier schaut sooo witzig um die Ecke, dass jedem, die diese Karte sieht, der Tag gerettet ist, egal wie doof er angefangen hat.
Und die Nikolausmütze sieht aus, als wäre sie genau für dieses Tier geschaffen.
Klasse!!!
Liebe Sonntagsgrüße

Ha ha! This made me smile.

What a fun CAS design Cornelia! I love how you added the hat - such a great way to stretch stamps.

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
