Origami Cat

Hi Everyone,

it has been awhile that I just made a card to play along in challenges.....but what caught my eye was the just opened Inkspirational challenge, so I had to play along (instead of making DT cards, that is....). The prompt is "FOLD"


I right away knew what stamp to use. And since i have neglected my iStencils for a while, I selected one I thought would make a great background for this origami fold cat from Carabelle Studio. I had this in my stash now for quite a while and it was until now an NBUS..... The sentiment is from Crackerbox & So Suzy Stamps. Added some Washi tape and enamel dots.


My iStencil:

The colors I got from the current Color Throwdown challenge - see picture below.


Happy Stamping!

Die Katze schaut etwas streng drein!
Was sie wohl nicht in Ordnung findet???
Ich kann nichts entdecken.
Vielleicht braucht sie eine Brille? *hahaha*

I'd call that the perfect stamp for the Inkspirational challenge. Love the idea of a newspaper folded into a cat...whimsical and funny. Using that stencil made it come to life. Fantastic card.

Oh so know what you mean about background making challenge cards and I am doing admin a lot! Still I was excited to see you at Ink and we both used the same kind of stamp! Love how you added the stencil and the washi tape gives so much more texture and depth to your card than mine-a super take on the challenge and fab to see you at Time Out x

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
