Stamp Connection #17

Hi Everyone,

Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja from Little Art Cottage and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 3rd Sunday of the month and this is our ninth transatlantic get-together!

This time it was my turn to pick the requirements:
and I went for use cork or wood


I have this roll of cork at home and it needs to be used......
I took an iStencil and sponged in black ink and then took gold embossing paste and embossed it. let it dry. Added the birthday die cut (STAMPlorations) and die cut it in black and gold metallic paper. Added the ZAPPY (Papertrey) and two gold embellies.


I just love how this came out!

Wow! Who would have thought cork would work at all, let alone so well! I love the texture of it and with the gold sentiment it's perfect. Feels kinda Hallowe'en-y with the tree branches. Love it! xx

Oh my, the Stencil Queen has struck again. I'm having a "why-didn't-I-think-of that" moment. The gold embossing looks fabulous on the cork. Especially with the black shadowing it. Then, of course, clever you chose the perfect diecut sentiment. This one is a real WOW!.

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.
