Sweet Mathilda

Hi Everyone,

today I have a special post, as I got this very special stamp hand carved from my friend Donna Grey, know an Inkyandquirky on Instagram. I made it a while ago and waited for the card to arrive at her house before I show it, but the American postal workers must have been utterly confused where the United Kingdom is, despite me making sure and also writing ENGLAND on the letter, but the card came back....So I sent it out again and its about time to show it here


The tiny mouse is by Basik&Co, the thank you strip is an ancient Hero Arts stamp and the "so sweet" - I can't remember. Its such a long time ago that i made that card.....As usual I colored with Inktense, but Mathilda - that's how I named the kittie got an undercoat of white acrylic paint.


Isn't Mathilda sweet - I love her big blue eyes! Donna hand carves a lot of stamps - some of them you can buy from Rubberdance or from That's Crafty

Mathilda is the perfect name for this big eyed, little beauty. She looks so fluffy and, well, sweet in her softly colored fur. Also love the mouse.

Diese Karte passt doch hervorragend zur Stempelküche und zu NSS!!!
Die Themen dort sind: groß und klein bzw. Mini und Maxi - wir haben uns nicht abgesprochen, ehrlich!!!
diese Katze mit der Maus ist doch soooo herrlich, vor allem, weil die Katze etwas schielt. Warum wohl???...
Liebe Grüße, Flo
That is so cute and I love the rainbow of colors. Really makes it awesome.

Sorry, ich bin spät. Oh ha, diese Katze scheint nicht ungefählich für die kleine Maus. Dieser Blick könnte töten. Klasse Karte.
Ganz klasse. Ich mag den Stil deiner Karte. Leuchtend spritzige Farben und dazu Schwarz.
Schön, das du bei Night-Shift-Stamping dabei bist.

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

Addicted to Stamps and More #134 and Spotlight Sneak Peek

Hi Everyone, Its challenge time at  ATSM ! For the next two week its going to be CAS - just my thing! And hopefully yours, too! I made a birthday card, because for some reason I always need more and never seem to have enough.... I was inspired by this weeks Make it Monday , where the talented  Ashley Newell  shows us a video about  stamps and doodling. Since I  mainly own die cuts from Papertrey and not so many stamps that would fit this theme I made my own out of fun foam, using my latest Papertrey dies (just got the order a few days ago) and cut those in fun foam - it works so well - voila - you have our own stamps, spending only a fraction of the money! I doodled around the stamps as you can see. Gives you kind of a cool effect....a little more tremor and one would think I drank too much ;) Added tiny enamel dots - do you know about this month House of Cards challenge - its enamel dots - thought I'll let you know..... Our wonderful spons...
