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

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
