12 Days of Christmas

Hi Everyone,

sorry to disappoint you, but there is only 3 days of Christmas on this card - no way to fit all twelve....
I finally inked up this cute Penny Black set that I had for ages in my stash.....



I die cut 3 circles and marked the opening on the base card. Stamped the critters in there. Colored them with markers and Inktense pencils.  Did some ombre sponging for the top panel and added water splatters.

Das ist ja auch eine ordentliche Herausforderung, 12 Weihnachtstage auf eine Karte zu bekommen. Deine Minimalversion ist aber Klasse geworden!!!
Super cute images and great coloring. Now that Christmas carol is on my mind.

Too cute and clever. Think 3 days of Christmas are enough?

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.

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!
