Topflight Stamps meets the Day of the Month Card Club

Hi Everyone,

It's Topflight Stamps day! 
And since I am pressed for time I thought I am going to combine it with the Day of the Month Card Club, which has National Bird Day as it's theme.


You have perhaps seen my bottle series. First I thought I am done after 4 cards, but everyone seems to like them. Besides I got some spice jars and a bird feeder as Christmas present from a good friend of mine, so I needed a thank you card. Basically killing three birds with one stone, so to speak....although the only thing I manage to kill is mosquitos and mice in my house....

This card is quite simple, but it took me a while to get the layout right. I wanted more bottles but it became too busy. Should have used a bigger card format for that, but I wanted to stick with what I usually do. So eventually I scaled it down to one bottle only and two birds. Did some masking and colored with watercolors and markers. For my stamp supplies see below.


Don't forget to visit the Day of the Month Card Club blog to get inspiration from the awesome DT girls and our wonderful guest designer Susan, who was voted winner  in our 21th challenge.

I am looking forward to see your creations using birds!
You have until 1/31/2021 to link up your paper art.
 See you next week with more Topflight Stamps inspiration.

Die Glasflaschen haben es Dir z.Zt. angetan, aber wenigstens hast Du dieses mal niemanden darin eingesperrt ... *kicher*

Die beiden Vögel sehen toll aus. Die hast Du wieder aml hervorragend koloriert. Ob die an die Samen in der Glasflasche kommen??? Ich wünsche es ihnen, damit sie nicht verhungern in diesem merkwürdigen Winter.
Liebe Grüße

The perfect Thank You card for the gift you received. Everyone likes these bottle cards because they are made so beautifully by you. Colors are as fantastic as the composition. Once again, you've made the perfect scene.
I always have to marvel at your fantastic coloring. This is a great card design too.

Fabulous job on the masking - one of my favourite techniques (I still get that sense of excitiment when you peel away the mask and "magically" have a little scene!). Love your card!

Geniale Karte, die Vögel sind ja der Hit.

Liebe Grüße

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. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
