Baby Girl

Hi everyone,

Happy Sunday!! I hope everyone was having a great week and weekend so far!!
Mine is ok.
My daughter was at a concert yesterday of her favorite German rapper!! ;) Well,it was Guns n' Roses,Metallica and AC/DC back in my Teenager years!! hehe
She was SO happy,that she got to make a photo with him and she did get to hug him!! I am having one happy 15 year old at home!! haha

Ok,on to my card.I got to make a card yesterday for the latest Tag You're It! Challenge!


I made a baby card,since my cousin just gave birth to her 3rd Child.An adorable littel girl. :)
I am sorry,if my cards look a little similar lately! I'm just so in love with My Creative Time's Stitched Rectangles,Heidi Swapps Color Shine and American Crafts Woodgrain Cardstock! Please bear with me,it's not gonna last forever!! ;)
I die cut two Tags from My Create Time's Just Tags.I sponged the top one with My Favorite Things Lemon Drop Hybrid ink,and added a stripe of Washi Tape at the bottom! I used the same ink on the cute Elephant's ear.Speaking of the Elephant,this cute little guy and the "Baby Girl" are from Clearly Besotted's Baby Shower Stamp and Die Set! The "Joy" is also frm Clearly Besotted.



I wish everyone a happy sunday!!

Thank you so much for stopping by!!

Happy Thursday!!

Today,it's Trending Now Thursday over at My Creative Time!!
Means we are showcasing what is Trending now!
This time it's all about Wood and Lace!!

Ok,i don't really own any Wood goodies,besides a Woodgrain Stamp and my American Crafts Woodgrain Papers!
So i choose to go with my AC Papers! LOVE them!!
I haven't used Lace in ages...glad i still had some in my stash! ;)

I misted my background with Heidi Swapps Gold and Bronze Color Shine.
I die cut the puzzle heart from the Stitched Puzzle Pieces Dies! I gold heat embossed it and used some 3D foam to pop it up ontop of some white string!! The sentiment is from The Last Piece to Our Family!
At the end i added some Bo Bunny Gems and a MME Enamel Dot!

Freshly Made Sketches #170

Hello everyone,

Happy Wednesday!!!
This is my second post for today.You may scroll down for the new The Card Concept Challenge!!

Welcome to a new Freshly Made Sketches Challenge!!!
I LOVE this weeks Sketch...well like every week! ;) Our fabulous and very sweet Jen Mitchell is our Hostess this week!! Here comes her awesome Sketch:


Instead of going "straight" like on the Sketch,i thought i'll be fun to use Clearly Besotted's Decorative Edges Shallow Dies,to make it more round on my card!
I started by stamping the heart and star sprinkles,that come in CB's "With Sprinkles" on some Tim Holtz Watercolor cardstock.I clear heat embossed it and sponged over it with Tumbled Glass distress ink and My Favorite Things Grape Jelly and Lemon Drop Hybrid Inks.The cute Donuts,heart cookie and sentiment are also from Clearly Besotted "With Sprinkles"! I used the same colors on them,like i did on my background.I did a little finishing touch on them,by using Glossy Accents and Ranger Clear Rock Candy Distress Glitter.

The Card Concept #27

Hello everyone,

Happy Wednesday!!

Welcome to a new Challenge over at The Card Concept!!
We have a awesome inspiration for you!!



I was totaly inspired by the "LOVE" of the inspiration photo!! I loved the placement and the colors!!
So i tried to copy that!!
I should have kept the center of the O inside.The longer i looked at it,the more i thought it would have looked better,but it was already somewhere deep in my trashcan! ;)
I used an ABC die set from Lawn Fawn and the you is a chipboard from Create a Smile,which covered with red ink.

Made in Minutes

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday!! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!!
I would like to thank each one of you,for stopping by during sneak peek and our Blog Hop on Friday!! I enjoyed reading your comments!! :)

Ok,today it's Made in Minutes Monday over at My Creative Time!
Which means,we are supposed to make any project of our choice in less than 20 minutes!
This was the first time,i made a card with the Stop watch! Boy,was i nervoes!! haha
BUT,i made it!!! :)
One thing though...next time i'll make sure to not heat emboss and watercolor! ;) This sure took me the longest!!

I started by die cutting the big and small heart! Than i stamped a background stamp on the big heart with clear glitter embossing powder and a sentiment on the little heart with white embossing powder!
I've used Iced Spruce and Worn Lipstick Distress Ink to watercolor both hearts! Than i die cut the word die 3 times,glued them together and adhered it to the big heart. Oh and one little hmmm...well mistake...is the eyelet!! When i started with my card,i had something else in mind,i was going to make a Tag out of the heart! But within a few minutes after i punched the whole,i changed my mind.But since there was no time,i just left it alone than!!
The Cardbase was cut with MCT's Stitched Rectangular Frame dies and more!!
And for the finishing touch,i added some Wink of Stella to the word die and a few gems to the cardbase!!

Freshly Made Sketches #169

Hello everyone,

This is my second post for today.Please scroll down for My Creative Time's Sneak Peek!

We are back with a new Challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches!!
I love this weeks Sketch!! I love when i look at a Sketch and knowing right away,what i'll do with it! It comes from our very talented Jennifer Timko!!


I made a shaker card this week.I thought,the circle of the Sketch would be perfect for it!!
I choose to use a Star instead of a circle.For the shaker part,i droped some Heidi Swapp Tinsel Color Shine on the base and added a few different purple shaded sequins! I didn't had a silver button,so i used a yellow one and silver heat embossed it!!
The sentiment is from Clearly Besotted's Sentimental Type,which i also silver heat embossed!! The scalloped border also is from Clearly Besotted,from their Decorative Edges Deep Die Collection!



Please head on over to the FMS Blog and check out all of the amazing cards from the Clean Team!!

MCT - Inspiration Wednesday

Hello everyone,

Happy Wednesday!!

This is my first post on Emma's ( My Creative Time ) Team...yay!! :)

Today it's Inspiration Wednesday!! Means we create something that we are inspired from!
I was inspired by the packaging of my cough drops! ;) I think soon,we are able to open up our own pharmacy! All 4 of us are sick here.Each one has it's own meds!! ;)
I was inspired by the 4 circles!



First i die cut a white panel with Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies and More.Than i die cut 4 circles with MCT's Bunch of Fun Circle Dies.Before i adhered the top panel,i stamped some splatters using Family is Everything...the "love" word die and sentiment also comes from this Set! The Hearts where die cut with Stitched Sweetheart & XOXO dies and Stitched Heart Layering dies! I inked them up with MFT hybrid inks.And for some reason,the small heart on the right bottom circle looks kind of yellow,but it's a light pink!


Thank you so much for stopping by!!!
