Stempel Spass

What else is new - another last minute project from me .... This time I combined both teh sketch and the inspiration picture from Your Next Stamp to create this shaker card. The sketch really looks like a snowglobe to me and I love shaker cards, so I went to work.... And here is my result: I used Paper Smooches stamps. The trees are actually green, you see this better below and its holiday confetti from Michaels, as are the little snowflakes. The snowglobe base is in real life more yellow, but looks like orange in the picture... I added wink of Stella to the white parts of the snowman's hat and that you can't see either... Here you can see the green trees: As luck will have it, my card fits the  The Card Concept  challenge perfectly  1.) A TAG or a CARD with a tag on it 2.) Snowmen, snow or any other "wintery" theme!  My card goes into the CAS category, of course. I like it, its cute!            ...

It's anything goes at Paper Smooches , which is just swell, since the AAA card challenge has a lot of requirements.... I had to pull out my Christmas stamps recently, so while they were out I figured I might as well use them... I made the corrugated paper strip with a paper crimper and punched some holes in it. The cute snowmen are by Paper Smooches- Freezy Fellas and the sentiments are Paper Smooches - Christmas sampler. I stamped those on acetate - for the plastic requirement. Added some twine and attached everything with a brad. I happen to really like this card - I first was afraid I wouldn't manage to keep things CAS, but I think I succeeded. And here are the 5 images for the game:  I am also adding this card to the  Snippets Playground  - add a snippet - my snippet is the acetate - is from some clear packaging - I keep all of those flat pieces of plastic for uses such like this.....nowadays this is called upcycling - I just l...

One can never start too soon to make Christmas cards...right? I just kept all my Christmas cards out and felt like making one today! Aren't those snowmen cute? I for sure settled for cute with my card as well... And here it is: All stamps are Paper Smooches, some twine, enamel dots and eyelets. Colored with Copics. Did a tad of paper piecing with the scarf.

The theme is "STRIPES" at Paper Smooche s and CAS(E) this Sketch has a cool sketch to play with, which I posted below.  I am totally in the mood for holiday cards now, so I pulled out the Freezy Fellas set from Paper Smooches. I fuzzy cut the snowmen. the striped background is made with a Cuttlebug Embossing Folder and the sentiment is also Paper Smooches - Christmas sampler. A bit of twine, to finish it.  Just a quick post today, gotta do some other stuff now... I am also linking this card with the CHNC challenge - Anything Christmas CHNC challenge #150 - Outdoors and Simon Says Wednesday challenge - CAS

I am really in the mood for making Christmas cards this year and what is better than this super fun Paper Smooches set called Freezy Fellas? I fuzzy cut the snowmen. The frame I made with paper from Martha Stewart and the little stars are from Impression Obsession - with some Stickles.  The inside of the frame I sponged. The sentiment is also Paper Smooches - Christmas sampler. Her is the sketch for the Paper Smooches challenge : I will also link up this card with the  CHNC challenge  , the  Christmas card challenges  and  the  Snippets Playground  - the snowmen are made from snippets. And here I am going over to the Snippets playground to get the link-up and what do I see??? I won the last snippets give away!! Hurrah!! It was love at first sight when I saw this die with the last snippets link-up. But then again - this weeks give away is hilarious -  who woul...

Since Christmas is coming closer and closer I decided to make a Christmas cards for the Paper Smooches challenge. The cute snowman is from the Paper Smooches - Freezy Fellas set. I colored him with Copics and fuzzy cut him. The sentiment is from their Christmas sampler, stamped on a strip I had left over, which was already cut with the Papertrey Rickrack border die - how convenient. And that why this card will also make  it into the Snippets Playground . I mounted everything on a background piece of cardstock, embossed using a Sizzix Embossing folder. And of course some twine.  And this card will also participate in the CHNC extra challenge - anything Christmas and  Christmas Card Challenges  has an anything goes theme, as long as it's a  Christmas  card. Have a great weekend everybody! Thanks for stepping by!
