Stempel Spass

Hi Everyone, I have the great honor to be guest designing at  JUGS  for the entire month! You know Easter is just around the corner. I think I bought this wonderful paper from Alexandra Renke last year and could not get myself to use it. But I finally gave myself a push and cut into it.... The theme is: Using designer paper always feel a bit like cheating to me....I guess I should just get over that feeling.  I used a stitched square die by Simon Says and another Lifestyle Crafts regular square die to cut the Kraft paper. The die cut bunny is also by Alexandra Renke. The pretty sentiment is by Papertrey. Come and join us at  JUGS , getting your feathers some use!  Stay home and stay healthy! Happy Stamping!

Hi Everyone,  time for another Christmas card - my pile is growing much too slowly.... For this card I turned to my favorite oldies....the Dixie Crafts die, that I use every year - love this funky reindeer. The Tim Holtz embossing folder - another ancient treasure. The wonderful paper is by Alexandra Renke and I got that gifted, if I remember correctly by my crafting friend Elisabeth Marsen from aufs papier gebracht . I dressed up the reindeer with Nymo Garn and a collar of glitter paper. Linking up with: Christmas Kickstart challenge - moves on hooves CAS Christmas - deer ATSM - holiday  

Hi Everyone, the new  So Suzy & Crackerbox Stamps release is here! For all you Harry Potter fans out there you will be delighted to see that we now have a lot of Harry Potter stamps for you! Now I am not really big on Harry Potter, but I still managed to create an acceptable card I hope.... I used the Gryffindor coat of arms and the sorting hat poem that goes along with it. I colored the coat of arms with Inktense and Finetec mica watercolors. Cut it out and mounted with with foam tape onto maroon wood grain card stock (Alexandra Renke). the sentiment I heat embossed with WOW gold embossing powder. For the maroon card stock I used a stitched die to cut it in size.   To show you a lot of our new stamps, we have prepared a little blog hop for you: Vicky Briggs Martha Lucia Gomez Tracy McLennon Giada Rigamonti Donna Idlet Cornelia Wenokor  - you are here Lindsay Adreon Terri Albro Burson Teresa DeWitt Pierce Olesya Andreyeva ...

Hi Everyone, have you seen the new  Muse Christmas Vision  challenge card by  Chriss Blagrave ? So pretty and it has a modern vibe! Of course I had to play along. And of course I need more Christmas cards....never too many of those... Here is her beautiful card: You can easily see how I got inspired: PP background, used a tree die (Memory Box) instead of houses, did copper and black tones instead of gold and grey and added a string instead of the ribbon. I also added little copper stars (Simon Says), because I thought it needed more. the PP I got last year from my blog friend Elisabeth from aufspapiergebracht and never used it. Well, better late than never. Not sure where it is from, but my guess is that it is by Alexandra Renke.  So, there are so many ways to CASE this - I am sure you'll find your own unique one!  Linking up with: Cardz 4 Guyz - Oh  Christmas Tree TioT's - Trees are Green or any other color ...
