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

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...
