STAMPlorations Inspiration # 214 - Things with Wings Blog Hop and Linky Party

Hi Everyone,
its inspiration time at STAMPlorations!

All though May we are having a  "Things With Wings" event  and for this occasion we are all featuring things with wings themed cards.



Here is mine:


My STAMPlorations supplies:

I decided on doing a die only card, using another one of my book pages. I lightly gessoed the die cuts and colored them with Inktense. Assembled the die cuts and added Nymo thread to the balloon and a little punched out heart. The bird got a googly eye.




Of course there are prizes: 
FIVE (5) winners of $10 gift code - randomly drawn from all comments left on the blog and participating designers blogs 
THREE (3) winners of $15 gift certificate - randomly drawn from all Things with Wings linky party entries 
Note: Gift codes and gift certificates are different. It’s all explained here.

***Commenting and linking up end on Tuesday, June 4, with winners announced on June 10 in the May winners post***




From May 1 to 31, products in the Things with Wings section of the store will be 15% off instantly + with my DT code STAMPGIRLCORNELIA, customers can get up to 35% off.


All our  Inspiration Project posts have a monthly random drawing - 1 commenter wins a $10 gift certificate. So look at all those fabulous cards the Inspiration Girls made and leave them some love! It may pay off :)

Happy Stamping!

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
