Card Concept inspired Christmas Card

Hi Everyone,

it has been a while that I had time for making a card other than DT cards. But the inspiration picture from The Card Concept caught my eye - see it below.


I used grey card stock as base and dry embossed it with a Papertrey embossing plate.Kind of hard to see, it is quite subtle. I diecut the deer (Poppy Stamps Whittle die,s) and glued them onto wood paper. Used a thin strip of antiqued mirror paper, as the inspiration pic has some lights in it. The sentiment is from inkystamps. Added two small pearls.

Oh what a great card...I definitely see where you got the inspiration. Love that you use grey cardstock, dry embossed it for texture and used the bitty moose. Brilliant.
What a wonderful card design and great take on the photo. That little deer scene is fantastic!

I just LOVE those whittle stamps and dies! These deer are just adorable and you've created the cutest card with them! Love it! Thanks for sharing this with us at The Card Concept!this week!
How charmingly lovely! I really like the use of dark woodgrain patterned paper here. It works superbly.

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.
