Last preview Wags'nWhiskers: Pinups!

Hi there and welcome back to another one of my pinup-style cards I made for the Wags'nWhiskers next release.

I really hope you've enjoyed Friday and yesterday's creations of the DT, which you can find at their blogs and at the Wags'nWhiskers blog :)

Today is the last day of the sneakpeaks and tomorrow is the big day: bloghop!! :)

Anyways... here's the card I created.
Have to tell you I gave the spots on the dress a lot of stickles, but I wasn't able to photograph it correctly so you would see it. So no detailphoto for that...sorry...



Thank you so much for coming and don't forget to check out the blogs of the other DT-members and the Wags'nWhiskersblog :)

See you later!

Instyle Stamps Sneak Preview

Oh my!
Instyle Stamps is releasing soooooooo many gorgeous stamps this month, it's really hard to choose which I love the best!

Here's a little sneak of one of the newest releases, called "Cupcake Stand". The best thing I love about this image, that it's a great one for 4"x4" cards. Perfect for birthdays, invites for high-teas etc. Love this one!
Now you want to know, what it looks right, eh?!

Well... ok, here it is:

Preview Wags'nWhiskers: pinups!

Oh yes, you've read the title correctly, Wags'nWhiskers is releasing new stamps and they are pinups!
And they are just perfect for those cards for men I can tell ya! They are hot, hot, hot!

Today, tomorrow and Sunday we will have sneak previews of the stamps and this next Monday it's time for a bloghop!!

As always, the stamps are made of extremely awesome deeply etched red rubber and they stamp perfectly which I, as a very addicted stamper, totally love about all stamps.

Anyways... back to the project. As said before the stamps are perfect for male cards, and as we have a challenge called "Valentine" over at the Wags'nWhiskers blog, I made a card for a Valentine.
Coloured the image with my copics and added stickles on the skirt and shirt of the girl.



Hope you will like the image as much as I do (I know this is totally different compared to the other images I normally use).
Please check out the Wags'nWhiskersblog for more info and more inspiration from the DT. Thank you!

And don't forget, today, tomorrow and Sunday will be the sneak peak days and Monday will be the day of the bloghop :)

Oh... don't forget to hop on over to the blog for a little surprise :)


See you later! :)

This is the card I made with her sketch, pretty simple to make, within 5 minutes it was finished and I totally love those for last minute cards :)

Magnolia Happy Birthday!

Hi there on the 2nd January :)

Hope you had a fabulous 1st!
As I've already made loads of Christmascards the last couple of weeks, it's time to start with other cards again like BIRTHDAY-cards :) Never can have enough, though I must say not all the people I know will get a handmade one. Not all appreciate all the work it takes to make one and those cards are thrown away as soon as their birthday is over.
But... there are a lot of people who DO appreciate them, and as my collection has went down the last few months, it's time to start making some more :)

So here's the first one of 2011: a Magnolia Happy Birthday-card.



And a detailphoto:


Have to say this isn't a Birthdaystamp, but a Christmasstamp from this year (actually last year :)), but think this one is just perfect for Birthdays.

Used some new copics with coloring and I totally love them. Perfectly black and not black with a blue or brown hue. Just perfect :)

Well... I'm off now. Enjoy your day!

See you later!

- Friday Sketchers: Sketch
- Crazy 4 Challenges: Celebrate something
- Just Magnolia: Anything goes
- Magnolia Down Under: A gift for you
