Topflight Stamps - Mixed Media

Hi Everyone,

This week's theme is Mixed Media on the  Topflight blog. Not my forte I must say. But at least I came up with something I can live with.....
I used a paper I created in my last Fresco Paints session using a Gel plate. I still had some bits on it from the last stencil I had used. Used some left over paint on a different stencil and pressed it on there. Anyhow - looks like a mess....I stamped the silhouette mushroom on the background. Added some die cut mushrooms, that I had colored to give them more life. Took a strip of wood paper, ripped the edge and added it. Mounted the whole thing onto a black card base. I figured it passes as mixed media - mono printing, die cutting and stamping. Next week will be better - I promise!

I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting. 
See you next week with more Topflight Stamps inspiration.

Mix Media ist auch nicht so mein Ding (wahrscheinlich weil es so lange dauert .. *lach*). Aber hin und wieder muss man auch mal eine Komfortzone verlassen und ich muss sagen, auf Deiner Karte sind mehr Pilze an einer Stelle, als bei uns z.Zt. im Wald. Mal schauen, vielleicht tut sich in denn nächsten Wochen ja noch was. Bis dahin vielen Dank, das Du wieder bei DotMCC mitspielst!! LG Gundi

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.
