Guest Designing for Retro Rubber #133

Hi Everyone,

for the next two weeks I have the honor to guest design for the Retro Rubber Challenge. I love this challenge -it encourages you to use older stamps. Don't we all have them - old, loved, but underused....I have a full room of them, LOL!


This balloon girl is especially pretty, which I have in my possession since 2016. The stencil I used is also a few years old, although I don't exactly remember how old. The sentiment is new, but at least 2/3's of my supplies are old - not even counting the inks I used....

The theme of this challenge is your favorite, I bet:


It's mine for sure!


I hope you will play along and give your old stamp some love! 
See you at Retro Rubber.

Happy Stamping!

I love and own this image...it's one of my favorites. Absolutely love the colorful cloud banks you've stenciled. Adds to the dreamy effect, beautifully.

I've been saving this one in my inbox, Cornelia. I'm just fascinated by your incredible rainbow clouds! Do you think you could do a video? I can only imagine the thousands of people who are going to try this and watching you do it would be so helpful! Thank you for the wonderful inspiration and congratulations on guesting at RR!! Take care and keep safe! Hugs, Darnell

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...
