Quick and Easy Christmas Card

Hi Everybody,

Quick and Easy Christmas Cards is the motto over at Stampotique. That is just up my alley! I got myself some brand new Stampotique stamps and had to use them!


I sponged the background with distress inks after masking off the sun? moon?  - one of them.... stamped the owls and added white snowy accents. The sentiment is a combination of Hero Arts and Winnie & Walter, which I modified.....


Its a one layer card, therefore quick and easy :)

Was für ein wunderschöner Abendhimmel! Mit ein bisschen Orange und Giftgrün im Hintergrund könnte man sogar auch eine schöne Halloween-Karte daraus machen. So gefällt sie mir aber besser. ;o)

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.
