Muse Christmas Visions#94

Hi Everyone,
 
I am playing along with my teamie Lindsey from Bashful Blogging at Muse Christmas Visions. She created this delicate card, that has a dreamlike quality to it. Now you know, that soft colors are simply not my strong point. But I gave it a try.....

 
Here is Lindseys wonderful card:
 
 
I basically went with the layout and the colors, but turned it into a one layer card. The stamp I used is from Hero Arts. I used my Catherine Pooler inks (the baby colors) and my Misti to create this card. The sentiment is by Mama Elephant. I added sequins and sprayed the card with Shimmer mist - hard to see here but in real life it twinkles nicely!

 
You have until Monday Morning 7:59AM to play along. Would be great if you do!!!!

Wow, Cornelia, for a person who insists that soft colours aren't her strong point, you've created a gorgeous card using some lovely soft colours. I love the way you've followed Lindsey's layout but have gone your own way. The wintry scene is stunning, especially the way those merging colours make the white silhouettes stand out. The sentiment makes me wish that the picture on my screen could show the wonderful sparkle you've added. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.

You might know how much I love this card because I'm such a pastel girl. But the vibrancy of your dawn scene is really remarkable and lovely.

Such a stunning winter scene card Cornelia. Your sky has so much depth and I'd love to see how it sparkles or shimmers in the light. One layer cards are not simple to make, yet you've turned this one into a real stunner. I like the simple sentiment too. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful card with the Watercooler Wednesday All about Christmas Challenge this week.

Soft colours or bold ones, Cornelia ... you're an expert with them all! Case in point, this gorgeous scene with the frosty, shimmery pastel sky ... it's a beauty! Hugs, Anita :)

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!

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

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
