Rainbow Pigeons

Hi Everyone,

I got that awesome pigeon die as part of my birthday present from my sister. Naturally I had to make a thank you card.


I got inspired by a painted utility box, that I found on one of my recent trips to Hoboken, NJ. I thought it would be perfect to transform into a card:


I used a window die I had in my stash and scraps of rainbow paper - since I also wanted to play along in the current Day of the Month card club challenge. The stamps I used are from STAMPlorations and Funky Fossil Designs.


Hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.

Happy Stamping!

Love your colourful pigeons. We had one in the corridor at work yesterday. It was very stubborn when it came to flying out of the window it had come in by. Thanks for joining us at The Alphabet Challenge. Love Dawn x

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. 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) fiftee...
