CCCB week 39 Flower Show

I created this little purse for a friend's birthday, she will get a sign for the front door with her name on it (Hopefully I get it done).

I cut the flowers with the Tattered Florals by Tim Holtz from Crepe and spider paper and *Glimmer misted* them with Riptide, Orange and Pashmina. I didn't ruffle them, they turned this way just by blow drying!

The paper is an older one by K&Company.

A great challenge at the City Crafters Challenge Blog!

Ein wunderschöner Timer ...

Schaut mal hier, vielleicht habt ihr ja Glück ...

"Add some Stickles" and a "Colour challenge"

The challenge at CropStop for this week is "Add some Stickles" and I also used the colours for the challenge at the Play Date Café. This is my second entry for the CropStop challenge.

This is the card I created:

The paper is Stampin' Up, so is the sentiment.

I used Ranger Scattered Straw and Faded Jeans Distress stickles on the flower.

Liebster Blog Award

Ich fühle mich richtig gut ... Yipeeh!

Martina (Abraxas) hat meinen Blog zu einem ihrer liebsten Blogs erklärt, 

das macht mich stolz und happy!

Hier kommen die Bedingungen für den Award:

Du bist getaggt worden und möchtest teilnehmen?

Erstelle einen Post, indem du das Liebster-Blog-Bild postest, die Anleitung reinkopierst (= der Text den du gerade liest). Außerdem solltest du zum Blog der Person verlinken, die dir den Award verliehen hat; sie per Kommentar in ihrem Blog informieren, dass du den Award annimmst; ihr den Link deines Award Posts mitteilen.

Danach überlegst du dir 3- 5 Lieblingsblogs, die du ebenfalls in deinem Post verlinkst; die Besitzer jeweils per Kommetar-Funktion informierst, dass sie getaggt wurden und hier ebenfalls den Link des Posts angibst, in dem die Erklärung steht.

Liebe Bloggerinnen, das Ziel, dieser Aktion ist, dass wir unbekannte, gute Blogs an’s Licht bringen, deswegen würde ich euch bitten keine Blogs zu posten, die ohnehin schon viele Leser haben!

Talentierte Anfänger und Leute, die zwar schon eine Weile bloggen, aber immer noch nicht so bekannt sind, freuen sich bestimmt

Ich wünsche euch viel Freude beim Basteln und immer genügend Zeit dazu :)

P.S.

Bitte geduldet euch einen Tag mit der Mitteilung der Blogs an die ich den Award geben möchte, es gibt so viele, und ich muss mich erst mal sortieren ;)

So, nun habe ich mich entschieden :)

Der Award geht an Angelika, weil sie immer mit dem Herzen dabei ist!

Einen weiteren Award vergebe ich an Sandra! Die Geschichten über ihre Katzen gehen mir sehr zu Herzen, ihre Layouts mit den Stubentigern sind klassisch schön! Auf ihrem Blog halte ich mich sehr oft auf, es ist nie langweilig, immer gibt es für mich etwas Neues auch in älteren Postings zu entdecken!

Ich wünsche euch viel Freude mit dem Award!

Happy Valentine's Day!

This is my creation for the Sketch challenge at CCCB and the #2 challenge at Cropstop "Add some Stickles"!

For the BG I used a folder from the Cuttlebug Valentine Bundle. I stamped the Heartfelt Creation Posy stamps on PP and added "Worn Lipstick" Distress stickles on the edges.
This is a vintage photo from my stash.

The sentiment is Hero Arts.

Again today there is no light to take pictures, it is raining again, So please excuse the bad quality!

This is a close up for the VIVA Decor pearls I created with the paper pen (I bought them in 10 different yummy colours and I love them!)

And this is my card for Valentine's day:

Spring has sprung

This is my creation for the publication at ATC Quarterly, the theme: *Spring has sprung*.

I stamped the Crafty Individual image twice on DP, on which I had applied a layer of Gesso. I heat embossed the image and cut out the window frame from one print. 

I added some lace, a picture I had taken in our garden some years ago and glued the frames to the inside of the window.

A dragon fly in copper, just to make it more lively :)

Thanks for looking!

CropStop Challenge #1 is a Sketch

I saved Glorias Sketch for a later date of course as I save all of her sketches.

This one is so pretty I had to do it now, and I mean NOW!

My favorite object, who else could that be (Kind of glad I don't have more than 2 cats, aren't you?) ... EMMA.

I used Bo Bunny *Kitchen Spice* paper. I matted with Soft Suede by Stampin' Up. The letterstamps are Tim Holtz, aren't they so beautiful?

The zipper punch is from EK Success. I just had to use because she looks so all zipped up ;)

AND .... I just received it yesterday!

Thanks Gloria from CropStop for this sketch!

A little close up of the chipboard tag:

I think I will change the picture tomorrow. It is so dark today because of the rain, it doesn't do all the pretty colours justice.

Colour Challenge #63 at the Pay Date Café

The colours at the Play Date Café this week are green, gold and silver.

I stamped the BG with Swirls by Viva Decor and heat embossed it with silver and gold. I wish I could show you in real, it is so pretty how the silver blends into the gold. The camera isn't able to pick it up, or maybe the photographer isn't?

The sentiment is on the inside as I didn't want to disturb all those pretty swirls :)

CropStop Challenge #1 is a Sketch

This is the first challenge at Cropstop and I was looking forward to it for quite some time.

The sketch was provided by Gloria and I decided to create an ATC as it was about time I made one.

I used the Gurnsey Gingham stamp by Unity for the BG and heat embossed it with clear powder.
The tiny piece of DP is Graphics45 (I guess you all have noticed already) and the gorgeous charms are from Lisa at Lisa's Altered Art.

The sentiment is a sticker from Cosmo Cricket. I'm not really into stickers that much, but this sheet was a gift and it finally came to use.

Winter White with a whiff of Raspberry

Do I love the outcome of this card?

Oh boy, YES I do!

I used  a Cuttlebug Folder for the background and matted it with the raspberry paper from SU. The sentiment is also stamped with the raspberry ink by SU. The flower consist of 1000+ layers *grin* of crepe and spiderpaper. It looks all feathery and fluffy.

I will use it as a wedding card!

A great challenge this week at the City Crafters Challenge Blog!

Stamping at the City Crafters Challenge Blog

I have had this stamp for a long time and never used it because it is so big. For this weeks challenge I finally stamped the image on a square card, covering almost all of it.

Christmas at the Play Date Café

The colours at the Play Date Café this week inspired me to create a bookmark.

I embossed the image (Unity) and just distressed the edges of the tag a bit. The background stamp is an older ANM called *Splatter Pattern*, the words are (I think) Paper Artsy. I also used the Martha Stewart binding edge punch
