Challenge at ATC Quarterly

From 'Outer Space' is the theme at ATC Quarterly ... this is my card

This is an explanation for my US-Friends:

In 1959 the ‘Sandmännchen’, the little guy on my card, was first seen on Television. It translates ‘Little Sandman’, he was coming from ‘Outer Space’ to tell kids all over Germany a bedtime story. At the end he poured sand/stars in the childrens eyes and told them ‘Good night’.

Sand in the eyes was supposed to make them sleepy, and they started rubbing their eyes. They really did, well I did ;)

All over Germany, when kids were asked about their bedtime, they never told the time or the hour, but replied: “Immediately after Sandmännchen!”

I grew up with that little guy and I can still hear the melody on Television when I look at him now.

I hope you like it.

Tag Challenge *FACES* at Kard Krazy

This is the first time I participate at a challenge at Kard Krazy

I used Crackle Paint first, then brushed it with Twinkling H20 in 
Egyptian Gold and distressed the edges.

Colour challenge #39 at PDCC

Thank you Julie from PDCC, this was a fun challenge....


I embossed with 3 different folders, the one on the top right side is something new to me. I adhered paper towel to white cardstock, embossed and distressed it. Unfortunately you can't see that it looks and feels like wallpaper, very smooth and a bit like fabric. 

The stamp is also one of my favs, a Crafty Individual.

Colour challenge #42 at CQC

For the challenge at CQC I used my most favorite die again ...

My friend loves to eat ..... the wrong stuff. Maybe my card will help her burn some calories by laughing ;)

Sketch Challenge #14 at CCCB

This time I decided to create an ATC for the weekly challenge at CCCB as in my opinion the sketch was designed for one ...

The stamp is a Stampers Anonymous, the sentiment is a Kraftin' Kimmie and the beautiful images are from Lisa's Altered Art.

Colour challenge # 57 at SPCC

... never fail to see the humor ..... in me :) Thanks Ladies at SPCC!


Colour challenge #38 at PDCC

This card took me forever as LILAC is not in my stash. So finally I came across the *Cottage Wall* from Stampin' Up, not my best choice, but it goes well with the Purple and Lime the DT from PDCC has chosen.
The stamp is an older Inkadinkado which I don't use very often.
