WS and PB swap

Good morning ladies!!!

This will be a short post because I'm nearly out of the door (like I said - back to routine ;-)).

I participated in a swap hosted by my dear friend Barbara over at SCS for Penny Black and Whipper Snapper cards (Barb is lucky enough to live VERY close to the WS store!!!!)

So, this first card is the WS one - I used their cappuccino stamp on whisper white cs, paperpierced it with a scrap of my stash, sponged all the edged and put it on some nesties-circle (inverted and scalloped). Add a some dimensionals, spica pen and liquid applique, sticker pearls and orange gingham and throw in some razzleberry lemonade paper and dusty durango mats.

That's it!

The second one is the Penny Black - this little hedgehog is jumping into a bunch of hearts underneath a huge flower!!! Kinda that ;-).

I used my new embossing folder that I received as a gift from my wonderful SS Lorie (hey Lorie, love it ***waving***) and rub a little bit of chalk over it. The hearts were punched out with the punch from SU and I added crystal effects and a dew drop to the little guy's heart! And that is all it took!

Thank your for stopping by today and let my share my creations with you. All your comments are very appreciated and thank you so much for your support!!!!

Hope to see you back soon!!!

Sending LOVE

Hello and Happy Sunday!

Time for another challenge-card!!! last night I couldn't sleep very well so I got up and saw some of my card-kits laying on my desk. So I grabbed one from Janet Rossi (I had some from her before and they are all awesome) and used this week challenge from Our Creative Corner. And this is what I came up with:

I LOVE the DP I found in her back and the primas match perfectly. - BTW, so sad that they will retire Riding Hood Red - is anybody else here who cannot live without it???? ;) -

I colored the hearts with a glitter pen for a little bit of sparkle and added liquid pearls to the corners if the image. Thank you Janet, for providing such an amazing kit!

Enjoy your loved one today and have a good start in a new week.

Toodles Tanja

This and that ....

Happy Sunday to everybody!!!!

This is supposed to be a short post due to the fact that I have 2 1/2 boys (hubby included) homesick!

I seem to do a lot of cleanup lately and so I came up with these three cards. I just grab what I found on the desk - after doing tons of scrapbooking and working on the last swaps I commited.

This sweet dog was send to my by my dear friend Paola aka Sama at Splitcoaststampers. I had him colored for quite a while and wanted to put him on a card. The paper and sticker are "Summer Home" simply scrapping from SU and the XOXOXO is from SU "Fundamental Phrases".

This stamp is from Paola too. I guess it is Penny Black and the inside stamp matches perfectly with "Stressed????? Me????????"

I send this card to my friend in Germany - she is having a hard time juggeling her kids, the job and the rest of the family. She just called me and said it made her laugh out loud! That's all I wanted =) 

Paper was Baja breeze, kiwi kiss, whisper white and DP from SU (forgot the name). Ribbon and eyelets are rom Michael's.

My friend Mary hosted the February Sisterhood-swap and her theme was Mardi Gras. Boy, that was hard for me... but anyway. For that swap I stamped a background stamp and embossed it with irisdescent (???)  embossing powder. It's very glittery but I kinda like it. This was my example cardstock and I wanted to use it asap. I just colored in the little hedgehog with SU markers and matted it on creamy caramel, added some pop-up dots and there we go. Anything fancy!  

Thanks for visiting me today in my little corner of the web. Hope to see you soon
