Monsters for Paper Players and New Member Greeting

Some time ahs passed and I have gotten two new members - time to greet them officially on my blog:

Welcome
Sarah Grey from Funky Fossils Designs (fabulous blog - check it out if you don't know it yet!)
and Nancy - 

for whom I unfortunately could not find a link...but I will happily add one, if you let me know!

As customary my ladies, you'll get a welcome picture - fitting my card somewhat:
I hope you like it.


I mostly stick with art and in a way this is as well - it is a sculpture made out of food cans - I photographed it a few years back at one of the CANstraction events that are held every year in NYC (and in many other cities) before Thanksgiving. The sculptures are afterwards donated to local food pantries and distributed to the needy.

I have not played for ages with The Paper Players  - but this weeks sketch is just too much fun!

A while ago I discovered a new stamp company - they are called Flonz and are from Australia. They have a lot of fabulous stamps and their shipping is unbelievable cheap - long story short I could not resist and ordered some stamps, which ever since have been laying around begging to be used. Today is their debut....


Those monsters were just too cute and I had to have them. The sentiment is from Recollections stamps - heat embossed in white. The squares I cut with a die from Papertrey.





Thanks for visiting me today - enjoy your day!

Die Krake ist ja hammer stark, irre was man so alles aus den verschiedensten Sachen machen kann. Und das ein guter Zweck dahinter steht, doppelter Genuss!!
Aber auch Deine Karte ist wieder ein Genuss für Augen und Schmunzelzentrum!!
Grüßle Gundi

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.

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.
