STAMPlorations Inspiration #51

Hi Everyone,
its inspiration time at STAMPlorations!

I hope you have it warm and cozy, where ever you are.

My materials: 
preview-CaffeinatedChristmas   preview-web-stencil-017-CoffeeCup copy.jpeg  stmp1073.jpeg

I colored white embossing paste with distress inks and smeared it onto the stencil. While it was still wet I sprinkled glitter onto the steam. Made a little see-through baggie for my tea bag (from some left over stamp wrapping) and adorned it with the snowflakes. Sponged in some distress ink and added the sentiment and some splatters.


Linking up with:

Snippets Playground - use a snippet - tea bag
The Holiday Coffee Lovers blog hop - there are lots of awesome prizes to win (keeping my fingers crossed...)

Truly, Irish Breakfast with a dash of sugar and a little milk.:

Happy Stamping!

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. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
