January Birthday

This card I made for the birthday of a friend. I first stamped the snowflakes (Inkadinkadoo, Penny Black) on the paper with a multicolored ink pad and then ran it through my Big Shot with the Fiskars snowflakes texture plate  This is a new technique for me, therefore into the Simon Says challenge "Something New" it goes. 

The sentiment is Hero Arts - Big Candles. I sponged a little on the sentiment and the borders of the card. The brads I colored with alcohol inks.

Diese Karte finde ich ganz toll. Sie sieht so schön frisch und eisig aus.
Ich weiß nicht warum, aber im Moment stehe ich total auf blau \ôô/ ....obwohl ich eher ein Erdton Fan bin.

Ach ja, ich wollte dir noch sagen von wo ich aus Deutschland komme.
Bestimmt hast du schon vom Further Drachenstich gehört. Da war/bin ich zuhause.
Siehst du, nur ein bisschen mehr als 100 km von Landshut bis Furth im Wald.
Hier in Frankreich lebe ich in der Nähe von Cognac und bin ungefähr 40 km vom Atlantischen Ozean entfernt.
In den USA hätte ich dich schon besuchen können. *lol*
Wir waren 1999 3 Wochen lang im Westen der USA unterwegs und haben dann die letzten drei Tage in New York/Manhattan verbracht. Für mich war es eine der schönsten Reisen meines Lebens. Ich weiß nicht wie das Leben für dich da drüben so ist, aber für mich als Urlauber war es eine herrliche Zeit. Alle Leute denen wir begenet sind waren so freundlich und hilfsbereit und ich träume immer noch davon.
Ich wäre sofort wieder für einen US Urlaub bereit ...obwohl ich eine Riesenangst vorm Fliegen habe.

So, genug gesabbert.
Ich muß noch ein bisschen Futter für den Blog vorbereiten *gg*

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. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
