Baby Shower card

Hi Everyone,

a good friend of mine is expecting her first baby and today was her baby shower, so I can show you the card I made for this joyful occasion.


I have had this Simon Says Stamp set (We're Expecting) forever and sadly had been unused, until now. It is so old, they don't even have it in their store anymore. Not sure why, it' such a terrific set!
I colored with Inktense. I fussy cut the bird in the egg and stamped another wing from the mother bird, nestled them both in and glued them in place.
I had a left over half strip of Washi tape, which made it on the card and a heart enamel dot.


Love this! Too bad most of my friends are older and already have children. I wouldn't mind making more of those cards.....

Happy Stamping!

Ja ja, mal wieder eine typische Cornelia-Karte!!!
sie gefällt mir sehr gut. Schade, dass ich keinen Nachwuchs mehr bekomme - ich selber, nicht meine Tochter oder so. aber die ist auch bald dran. ich bin schon recht aufgeregt, denn ende Juli fahre ich hin und erwarte gemeinsam mit ihr die neue Erdenbürgerin.

This is adorable, Cornelia. I recently made one of my first baby cards for a challenge because I don't have much use for them. Now I can use it because my grandson and his wife just announced they are expecting a baby boy in January.

Ja, Babykarten müssen nicht immer quietschesüß sein. Und mal ganz ehrlich, die Hauptleistung vollbringt ja erst einmal die Mama!!

Oh my, what a sweet card, Cornelia ... apart from the fabulous colouring (of course!), I do love how you've nestled the little bird in it's egg into the cosy wings of the mummy bird ... so cute! Hugs, Anita :)

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! Mirror Image stamp ,  Two Cats in a Tree If you want a video tutorial on how to do this I can highly recommend you watch THIS VIDEO on youtube. Explains it all in very little time! Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
