Crackerbox & So Suzy Stamps - Swinging Fairy

Hi Everybody,

I am playing with some old and some stamps from Crackerbox & So Suzy Stamps.


My stamp supplies:

And here is my little tutorial:


I positioned the stamp in my Misti and lightly stamped it. Used an old mask for the wings (I keep all those masks, saves some time for future projects)


Sponged the background - no need to be blending accurately.


Sponged some darker green on top and stamped the vines and the beach grass.



Masked the sun and sponged a bit around it. Removed the masks.


Found it a bit drab, so I took some distress inks and added some color. Added some shimmer to the sun and the fairy wings (a bit hard to see).
Stamped the sentiment on shimmer paper and cut it apart. Added it to my card.


Very different from my usual "style". I hope that nonetheless you liked it.

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.
