Christmas Twofer with Paperartsy

  Hi Everyone,

This week's theme is anything goes on the Topflight blog
I am now in major Christmas card mode. Don't expect to see much else for the next couple of weeks...
I used this wonderful tree stamp before (see HERE) and I still have so many more ideas of what to do with it.....maybe next year....
I stamped the tree and used the stencil to color it. This makes it much easier, although by the life of me I don't know why they cut the stencil in two - would have easily fit as it is....so you might get a stencil line, which is really annoying - You can see it well in the green tree.... they could have just left two thin connectors for the center bauble spaces....
I stamped some baubles into the green tree and punched out some penguins for the blue tree. I also added lots of Stickles to the blue tree, although you can't see it well here. I added Crystal Lacquer to the baubles.
I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting. 
See you next week with more Topflight Stamps inspiration.

And here are the stamp supplies I used:

Und die blaue Karte ist gemeinsam mit der Weihnachtskatze hier bei mir gelandet. Danke dafür. Mach weiter so, ich muss immer grinsen, teilweise auch herzhaft lachen über Deine Kartenideen.
Eine schöne Weihnachtszeit, liebe Grüße aus dem regnerisch-trüben Ruhrgebiet.

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.

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to be part of this wonderful event - the collaboration between So Suzy and the MISTI from My Sweet Petunia doing mirror image stamping.  This event is going on for the ENTIRE  MONTH! We are demonstrating the  Mirror Image Stamp    which coordinates with the Misti Stamping Tool! All month long, different bloggers will post a card using the  Mirror Image Stamp .  In my tutorial today, I will show you how use the  Mirror Image Stamp  on your cards. You can basically double your stamp supplies that way! The  mirror image stamp  is  a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of red rubber with no foam backing. So much larger than the other mirror image stamps out there and therefore much more useful!
