Joy to the World

Hi Everyone,

I could not resist to order some stuff on Black Friday. don't ask me why....my craft room is overflowing and I still have lots of NBUS shtuff....but regardless of that  - I treated myself to some Flora And Fauna sets.


Of course I had to get the one with those cute birds. I simply can't say no to birds. and those are especially cute!
Limited my colors to red and green, since I wanted to link up with Less is More. Colored them with Stabilo markers. Added tiny dots of Nuvo drops


Happy Stamping!

Linking up with:
Less is More - Red and Green
52 Christmas Card Throwdown - pick a prior challenge - #20 Holly

You and birds are a wonderful combination; this card is no exception with the petty cardinals! I did 'some' Black Friday shopping despite having Mt. NBUS as well! Of course, I'm hoping for some Boxing Day sales, too! Speaking of birds, we x-country skied at Lake Louise today and the crow - all black and fluffy feathery, in the parking lot, was the size of standard schnauzer! Seriously! Gahhhhhhhhhh! Anyway, your birds I do adore!

Whimsical and so sweet, Cornelia ... and deliciously CAS ... all that white space with the vibrant red and green ... sigh! Hugs, Anita :)

Mir geht's genauso: Hab sowieso soviel Zeug und dann bestellen ich noch mehr, weil ich den Sales nicht widerstehen konnte!!! Ich habe aber viel mehr gekauft, wie nur ein paar Flora and Fauna sets... Warum nur???

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

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
