House of Cards Blog Hop

A little preview ..... Check out the full image at the bottom of this page ;)

Hello everyone!
Six months are over and that means Blog Hop at House of Cards!
Unfortunately, this is the last one .... because House of Cards closes!

I'm writing this post with some sadness, because at House of Cards I gained my first experience as a DT member and I've been in the team for almost seven years - so from the beginning!

Thank you girls, it was a great and creative time with you!

Now to the hop!

It runs from December 1, 6:00 AM to December 15 midnight.

ANY CARD STYLE is welcome and we've got this gorgeous photo inspiration for your crafting enjoyment! 

For this Hop,  

Bekky's Place is giving away a $ 10.00AU Gift Certificate!

To win this prize, be sure to leave a comment at each person's blog because the prize is hidden and a random draw will be made among these blogs to find it out! :)

After you're done, we would love for you to make a creation to share with us on the challenge blog, too.

Here is what I created...

...with the candle from the gorgeous "Tied Up With String" digital stamp set from Beccy's Place!

I watercolored the candle with felt-tip pens and fussy cut it. I stamped the sentiment on a white cardstock panel and covered it with a sheet of gold splashed velum. I added black gingham pattern at the bottom and stuck the candle. I took a slightly larger white base card and colored its edges with black felt-tip pen. I added Wink of Stella to the black edges, the flame, the mistletoe berries and the string. That's all!

!!! Did you leave your comment?

So I cross my fingers for you and wish you a lot of fun!

.... your next step is Sue N.

- you will find the complete list of the Hop on the Challenge Blog!

Thank you for your visit ..... and good luck !!

Gold & Pearls

Hello everyone!
We are the first of the month and that means a new challenge at House of cards!
This month we want Gold and Pearls and/or Colors - (see our inspiration photo below)

....I still need Christmas cards!

It's not often that I work with patterned paper but today I made an exeption! :))

The gray basic color suited well and as all the pattern were white, I just had to color them in the tones that I needed!

I colored the Christmas balls with a gold gel pen and sprinkled them immediately with gold glitter. - On some other patterns I only used pearl pen. The stars are colored with gold gel pen - a few foliages and flowers with colored pencils. The larger snowflakes are decorated with half-pearls!

I stuck the embellished paper on a white card and then glued a golden zig zag ribbon on the edge.

Finally I stamped the sentiment vertically next to the ribbon.

That's what the paper looked like before it met my gel pens, colored pencils, pearl pens, gold glitter etc ......!

Gold & Pearl accents and/or Colors

...have fun!

Hello everyone!
Today I come with the new challenge of House of Cards. For this month, we selected beautiful colors and/or autumn flowers. (See the inspiration photo below)

I wanted to make a thank you card.

.. and here is what came out!

I started by making a flower but admit that I had no idea what I was going to do with it! - Pushed it from one corner to the other and could not figure out how to place her. I took a thin black strip and played with both, the strip and the flower. - Still no idea!
I added a silver strip to the black ...and I liked - a vague idea was born!
I added a bright yellow spot but found it was still too empty! .... a bit of embossing might be nice!?
Said and done! .... but before embossing, I stamped the big Thank You! - after I would surely have trouble! ;-)
To emboss I choose one of the embossing folders that I found at Action some time ago and then sponged the edges with grey ink .... I just loved the result !!
Now I was on the right track! The flower, as well as the stripes got their place.
Finally I stamped a tiny text on the top left - just to balance.


...Inspired? ....Want to join us? - We look forward to your creations!

Have fun!



Autumn Flowers and/or Colors

Stamps: Flower and Leaves (Stampin'Up); Tiny text and Sentiment (Action);

Embossing: Embossin folder (Action)

Rhinestones (for the stamens of the flower), Silver foil, black cardstock strip

Happy Birthday

Hello everyone!

We have a new challenge at House of Cards!

This time we have a Birthday Theme and/or Colors. (see the inspiration photo below)

You can use only the colors or just the topic ....but you can also combine both!! - I tried to use theme and colors...

...and that's what came out!

First I stuck lot of Washi tape all over my card and added a small strip of embossed paper and black Washi tape at the bottom. Then I stamped the word Happy Birthday and the macaroons. After coloring I fussy cut them and pasted them on the card. I cut the card a bit smaller than the white base card and stuck it on top of it. Voilà!

HAVE FUN!

Enjoy every moment...

Hello everyone!
We have a new challenge at House of Cards and this time we would like to see patterned papers on your cards. (see the inspiration photo below)
As always, you can use only the colors or just the topic ......and why not, combine both!!

That's good - I have a full box of patterned paper scraps!

I cut different patterned paper scraps into a cushion shape and colored them (some) half with a darker color. Then I glued various twine (wool, gold cord, paper cord, etc.) to separate the colored half from the patterned one. 

I stamped the text - Enjoy every moment - on a piece of white paper, added a seam at the bottom, embossed the paper and pasted it on the card.

I glued the pillows together, sat the kitty on top of the pile and added a few glitter glue dots to the upper cushion.

I did not really stick to the color palette this time, because the papers I used were more in brown - red - green tones.

Surely you have such a box full of patterned paper leftovers - that would be a good opportunity to use a few of them. 😉

Hello everyone!
We have a new challenge at House of Cards and this time we would like to see cards with Popsicles or Food and/or Colors! (see the inspiration photo below)
You can be inspired just by the image, or just by the colors ...

 ... or, like me, combine both!

I stamped the background with different fruits and watercolored them with felt-tip pens. - I also added the color dots with that pens. I watercolored (always with my felt-tip pens) the borders of a slightly wider cardstock than the one for the background and glued them both on the card.
I drawed a popsicle, watercolored it with felt-tip pens, traced the black lines and cut it out with scissors.
I die cut a circle from white cardstock and stamped the sentiment, then I stuck the popsicle and stamped once again the small part that was covered by the lolly. To finish, I stuck the circle on the card and added some pearl pen dots to the chilly thing.

Inspired? - We are looking forward to your icy, fruity, colorful creations!

Have a cool day ;)

Inspirations Foto --- Photo d'inspiration

Und hier sind meine Kreationen zum Blog Hop.

Et voici mes créations pour le Blog Hop.

Für die erste Karte habe ich das wunderschöne digitale Stempelset "Open Bloom" von MHK designs verwendet. Was ich an Digi-Stempeln mag, ist, dass man sie auf jede Größe einstellen kann! Hier druckte ich die Blumen in einem sehr kleinen Format, kolorierte sie mit Buntstiften und schnitt sie mit einer Schere aus. Ich habe den Text vergrößert und direkt auf die Karte gedruckt. Dann habe ich ein Stück Wellpappe auf einer Seite abgerissen und auf die linke Seite der Karte geklebt. Ich klebte die Blüten und wicklete noch ein Stück Silberfaden um sie herum. Eine weitere kleine Blume in der Nähe des Textes und ein paar Pearl Pen Punkte und das war's!

Pour la première carte, j'ai utilisé le magnifique set de tampons numériques "Open Bloom" de MHK designs. Ce que j'aime chez digis, c'est que vous pouvez les régler à n'importe quelle taille! Ici, j'ai imprimé les fleurs dans un très petit format, les ai coloriées avec des crayons de couleur et découpées avec des ciseaux. J'ai agrandi le texte et l'ai imprimé directement sur la carte. Puis j'ai déchiré un morceau de carton ondulé d'un côté et je l'ai collé sur le côté gauche de la carte. J'ai collé les fleurs et je les ai entouré d'un morceau de fil d'argent. Une autre petite fleur près du texte et quelques pointes de pearl pen et c'est tout!

Für die zweite Karte wählte ich diesen schönen Digi Stempel von Digistamps4Joy.

 Nachdem ich das Bild mit Buntstiften koloriert hatte, schnitt ich es mit Schere und Skalpell aus. Ich prägte den Hintergrund, wischte ihn mit etwas grauer Tinte und klebte ihn auf eine weisse Karte. Dann habe ich ein Oval aus dem Deckblatt gestanzt und das farbige Bild an diese Stelle geklebt. Der Text (Stampin'Up) ist auf der Innenseite der Karte gestempelt.

Pour la deuxième carte, j'ai choisi ce magnifique tampon digi de Digistamps4Joy. 

Après avoir colorié l'image avec des crayons de couleur, je l'ai découpé avec des ciseaux et un scalpel. J'ai embossé l'arrière-plan, l'ai épongé avec de l'encre grise et l'ai collé sur une carte blanche. Puis j'ai découpé un ovale dans la feuille de couverture et collé l'image colorée à cet endroit. Le texte (Stampin'Up) est estampillé à l'intérieur de la carte.

Do you want popsicles?

Hello everyone!
We have a new challenge at House of Cards and this time we would like one shaped card! (see the inspiration photo below)

As you know you can only use the colors - or like me, combine both!

To color (with alcohol markers) more cleanly the different parts of the ice lolly, I cut it into three pieces. I stuck the colored  pieces on a piece of paper of the same size and embossed it to get the big furrows you see. - To emboss I had to trick and find something to make the furrows - by chance, I kept a plastic packaging that allowed me to do it!  👍👍

The stick is made from the inside of a packaging. I stamped the sentiments (Stampin'Up) and glued the popsicle on a card of the same shape. Finally I cut the "bitten corner" with a scallop shaped die.

Gönn dir was! - means something like - Treat yourself!

...and here is the inspiration photo

Shaped card and/or Colors

Looking forward to see your creations! Happy crafting!

..... what's up with Rosi?

... surely you have thought about it!

Hello everybody!
....yes, I am still alive! - Sorry that you had to wait so long to see something new on my blog. Unfortunately, I have not had the slightest time for crafting in the last few weeks and so it happens, that I am going to continue directly with a new House of Cards challenge!

This month we have ...

CAS Floral Corner and / or Colors 

(see the inspiration photo below)

This card was very easy to do! 

I colored the image with my alcohol markers, cut it diagonally and stuck it on an embossed sheet.

 Then I put the set on a white card and added the sentiment. Finished!

HAPPY EASTER and see you soon! 

.......with plenty of floral corners 😉

..... or how to color on dark paper :)

Hello everyone!
We have a new challenge at House of Cards and for the month of March, we are going to color on dark cardstock. 
.... don't be afraid, you can also take your usual paper and just use the colors of the palette on our inspiration photo. (see below)

I did not immediately dare to cover a large area and so I simply colored my bears on a small piece of black cardstock, which I then stuck to a white card.

To create a bright background for coloring, I first stamped the shape of the bears on the black area with white pigment ink.

After the prints had dried well, I started coloring the bears and I quickly realized that I had to press the pencils pretty hard to get a good visible color  ..... but it worked well! 

After coloring I stamped the outlines and the faces of the bears with black Stazon ink - now they look like Gummy Bears, ha ha! I cut the paper into the right size and stuck it on the card. 

Finally I added the sentiment, and three hearts coated with Glossy.

This was also a challenge for me, because coloring on a dark card was really new to me - but finally it was pretty easy, so don't be afraid to try it yourself!

.... and so you can see exactly how to do it, I invite you to watch this little tutorial.

Use Colored Pencils on Dark Card and/or Colors

Happy coloring!

Stamps: Stampin'Up

Inks: Cloud White (VersaMagic), Jet Black (StazOn), Onyx Black (Versafine)

Embossing: 

Colored Pencils, Glossy

XOXO 💋

Hello everyone!
There is a new challenge at House of Cards and for the month of Love 
we have lips and/or pink for you.  (see the inspiration photo below)

Guess how I created this card! 

Having no adequate stamps and no special ideas, I thought: 

there are lips on the photo - what if I used my lips to create my card??

I did a test on a small piece of paper having previously inked my lips with water-based ink and 

......did not find it too bad!

So I went to the full-scale test and kissed my paper several times with different inks - and voilà the result!

.....but imagine the state of my mouth - it looked like I had fallen into a pot of paint! hahaha.

I added a tiny heart in the lower right corner and I wrote XOXO by hand.

Now it's your turn - we look forward to your creations for Valentine's Day!

Mixed Medias and/or Stunning colors
this is what we want on your cards this month!
(See our inspiration photo at the bottom)

The year begins with glitter! - My unicorn has some in the mane but impossible to see it on the picture - too bad!
This month it's Mixed Media so I used several things ....and my new Scrap Plaisir stamps!
The rainbow is watercolor, the mane is colored with colored pencils and then Wink of Stella. I also added some silver stars and splashed some black ink on the card ....and after sticking the sentiment ( Life is better with glitter!) and the unicorn I added three more sequins!

Und hier sind meine Kreationen zum Blog Hop.

Et voici mes créations pour le Blog Hop.

Dieses lustige Trio + Schrift kommt von "Imagine That Digistamp"!

Zuerst färbte ich den Hintergrund mit hellblauem Aquarell. Dann colorierte ich diese lustigen Typen mit Filzstiften. 

Ich schnitt den Flügel und die Füße des Pinguins ab! ..... warum habe ich die Füße und den Flügel abgeschnitten?

Weil ich das Wort JOY aus einer selbstklebenden Silberfolie geschnitten, und es auf das existierende Wort geklebt habe! - Somit hat der Pinguin seinen Flügel und Beine wieder bekommen.

.... und um das Ganze etwas winterlicher zu machen, habe ich die obere Hälfte geprägt und den Boden mit funkelndem Schnee bedeckt.

Ce trio amusant + police vient de "Imagine That Digistamp"!

Tout d'abord, j'ai colorié l'arrière-plan avec de l'aquarelle bleu clair. Ensuite, j'ai colorié ces gars drôles avec des stylos feutres. J'ai découpé l'aile et les pieds du pingouin! .......pourquoi j'ai découpé les pieds et l'aile?

C'est parce-que j'ai découpé le mot JOY dans une feuille d'argent auto-adhésive que j'ai collé sur le mot existant! - Ainsi, le pingouin a retrouvé son aile et ses pieds

.... et pour faire paraître l'ensemble un peu plus hivernal, j'ai embossé la moitié supérieure et j'ai couvert le sol de neige étincelante.

Dieser lustige Hirsch kommt von "Digistamps4Joy" und er hat es sehr sehr eilig! - Weihnachten ist nicht mehr weit und er hat noch viele Pakete auf seinem Schlitten!
Auch hier habe ich mit Filzstiften coloriert und hier und da habe ich mit ein paar Glittergel Stiften nachgeholfen - leider sieht man es nicht auf dem Foto! :(
Das fertige Bild habe ich dann feinsäuberlich mit dem Skalpel ausgeschnitten!
Für den Hintergrund habe ich Yupo Papier und Alkoholfarben verwendet. Nach dem trocknen, was ja bei diesen Farben sehr schnell geht, habe ich hier und da ein paar goldene Sterne und die Schrift (SU) gestempelt und dann den Hirsch samt Schlitten darauf geklebt.
Sorry für das scharfe Blau, in Wirklichkeit ist es nicht so aggressiv!

Ce cerf amusant vient de "Digistamps4Joy" et il est très pressé! - Noël n'est pas loin et il a encore plein de paquets sur son traîneau!
Ici aussi, je colorais avec des feutres et ici et là j'ai aidé avec quelques stylos à paillettes - malheureusement ça ne se voit pas sur la photo! :(
J'ai ensuite coupé avec soin l'image finale avec le scalpel!
Pour l'arrière-plan j'ai utilisé du papier Yupo et des encres alcool. Après séchage, ce qui est très rapide avec ces l'encres, j'ai estampillé ici et là quelques étoiles dorées et l'écriture (SU) , puis j'ai collé le cerf avec le traîneau dessus.
Désolé pour le bleu vif, en réalité ce n'est pas si agressif!

Fa la la la la

Hello everyone!
Time for a new challenge at House of Cards!
This month we want to see Holiday and/or Colors. (see the inspiration photo below)

This time I choose Stampin'Up's "Merry Mice". 

To do the background, I used my new embossing folder (inked with "Saharah Sand" (Stampin'Up). -  just Love it!! 😍😍

I also added a few glittery snow hills to make a pretty wintry scene!  

As usual I took felt-tip pens to color my images in watercolor technique. 

Once colored, I fussy cut the mice and pushed them into the snow hills. 😊

It just remained to stamp the sentiment and that was it!

Haunted Halloween

Hello everyone!
It's me again, because I have a second card for the new challenge at House of Cards!
You know this month we want to see CAS Halloween and/or Colors. (see the inspiration photo below)

... here is the brighter version 😉

I die-cut the Large Circle Burst (Memory Box) into a white cardboard that was the size of the base card.

Then I sponged the base card with Daffodil Delight, Fresh Fig, Pumkin Pie and Smoky Slate (all Stampin'Up). I lightly marked the free space and then stamped the haunted castle and the spider - the bat was added with a handmade mask.

I sponged white paper strips with Smoky Slate, stamped the sentiment, cut them out to separated words and glued them to the card. Voilà!

BOO 👀

Hello everyone!
Time for a new challenge at House of Cards!
This month we want to see CAS Halloween and/or Colors. (see the inspiration photo below)

... dark but CAS!

At first I was not very sure that I wanted to make such a dark card but now I adore it!

The base card is white with black cardstock on the top. Before sticking the black part, I die cut the pumpkin and I embossed the bottom edge. 

On the base card, I painted the area of the pumpkin with orange watercolor and glued the black sheet on the card.

I die cut a pumpkin from orange cardstock, accentuated its edges with orange ink, colored its stem and its tendril in green and glued it in the hollow part of the black sheet.

I stamped and fussy cut two small pumpkins and a spider to which I also added some colors.

I stamped the spider web directly on the card as well as the few leaves on the left.

I die cut the letters BOO and stuck them as well as the pumpkins and the spider to the card.

Autumn Colors

Hello everyone!
Time for a new challenge at House of Cards!
This month we want to see Text and/or Colors on your cards. (see the inspiration photo below)

... here is what that photo inspired me!

When I saw the photo, it immediately reminded me the beautiful  autumn season - warm and bright colors, which you will find on my two cards! The leaves on the first card are die cut from colored cardstock and then glued on the embossed background. I added an autumnal text and a piece of gingham patterned paper.

Text and/or colors

On my second card I created a little autumnal scene - a tree, a deer and some mushrooms on white cardstock. I stamped the first part of the text below the deer, and the second part of the text on a strip of vellum which I have torn at the lower end. I stuck it on the left, between the panel and the vanilla base card.

Have a great weekend
