Joy to the World

    Hi Everyone,

I am back with my weekly Christmas card. I am playing along with 52CCT - the theme is "pale blue and red".  

Those are pretty colors! I used a background stencil (Simple stories) and brushed it with speckled egg distress oxide ink. Used the same ink to stamp the sentiment (Tim Holtz). I added some red die cuts (Alexandra Renke and Impression Obsession dies). 

I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.

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.
