TCP Tuesday 216 and the Weekly Winner

I don't know about you, but I am always moved to create when I see Jen del Muro's Inspiration Collages for TCP Tuesday. There is such a variety in the photos, but all work together. And I love seeing what everyone comes up with when they interpret the Inspiration Collage.

First, hop on over to see Jen's very own interpretation of this sketch. Really beautiful and elegant. I just can't stop looking at it.

Then, go for some crisp Winter fun at Nancy's. She uses our Snowflake Lace Paper CutUps to give her card that dainty, lacy look.

Amy, just makes my jaw drop with her beautifully simple and elegant card. Truly stunning.

And, Julie's fresh and lovely card is one that anyone would love to receive. So Pretty.

Lori takes her inspiration from the flowers and vases in the photo and creates a wonderful card full of texture and interest.

Then go over to Jenny's blog. She uses the Lacy Floral Doily CutUps flowers to create an intricate background for some cheeky butterflies.

Are you inspired, yet? Then stamp something up. And then add it to the Inlinkz gallery below. You could win a gift voucher to our website!

Have you had fun playing along with week's TCP Tuesday Sketch Challenge?
Amy is our Hostess for the Mostess this week. Check out the sketch above. So creative.

And then check out what the other Cat Packers have created.

Jen's soft and pretty card is signature Jen del Muro. Lots of great textures and patterns.

Julie's get well card is just a wonderful way to say get better. She uses our new stamp set, Commemorating You, and our Stamp Trio as the focal point, then adds a pretty seam binding rose.

Then, Lori's delightful Summer card is fresh and fun with a little bit of whimsy thrown in.

And Nancy's card reminds us that in just a couple of months the Holiday season will be here. Thanks, Nancy!

TCP Tuesday 214

Have you played along with the rest of the Cat Pack for this week's TCP Tuesday Challenge?
Susan is our Hostess for the Mostess this week. And her challenge will blow you away! Here it is

Use any stamp image that could be "taken by the wind" or that you'd blow on...(which could be candles). Could also be the balloons from Catch My Drift, Field of Pinwheels, What a Blast, or even A Cuppa or Blow, etc. Because of not many people being able to play because they never have the required die, this time there will be a choice of 2 because I'm nice. Let's use either the

Cloud Border or Pinwheel Die

so please include it on your card or project along with your stamp
for this challenge.

That's the Challenge!

Want some ideas? How about Nancy's darling take, using the Pinwheel Die placed perfectly on her card.

Or Lori's sweet card. She used the Cloud Border in felt, and tucked it behind her main image.

Want an original idea for teacher's gifts? Then Amy is your gal. Check out her amazing and creative gift tins.

And I am in love with Julie's card. She uses fun and unexpected papers for her card. Just delightful!

Jenny just blows me away with her creations. They could be room decor, or favors, or table settings. SOOOoo cute.

Or Jen's card. So soft and pretty. I think I am in love.

TCP Tuesday 213 and the Weekly Winner

It's Challenge time again and this week our Hostess with the Mostess is Lori! She's doing the color challenge this week and it is really Summery and yummy. She is challenging you to use Lemon, Orange, and Berry. Sounds like a Smoothie, no?

So check out Lori's card when you get the chance. It is just as sweet as Lori.

Then head over to Jen's blog and see a total modern twist on the postoid. Years ago postoids were all the rage on cards and on assemblage art. This card by Jen really shows why. And could start the craze again.

Julie creates another fun and pretty card. I really love her use of embellishments in this and how she combined the Anywhere Ribbon Slide with the Circus Border CutUps. Love the look.

Swanky Stamper of the Month

Chris Veneruso — Swanky Stamper for June

I admit, I'm kind of a simple country gal at heart. I love homemade, homespun things. Handcrafted goodness makes me go weak in the knees. And items that make me smile, make me swoon. And that is just what I did when I saw this sweet card by Chris Veneruso. Delightful paper choices, textures, sewing? What is not to love. And her coloring? There is something about a pink bellied bunny that just does it for me.
