Funky Fossil - Cattitude

Hi Everyone,

I am playing with the wonderful new release from Funky Fossil Designs.

This Cattitude set is especially cute!

Cattitude

I went really CAS here. Used some dies by Simon Says to frame the little cat. A bit of color and voila! A card!It really can't be any easier. 

Happy Stamping!

Guest Designing at Just us Girls #530

Hi Everyone,

I have the great honor to be guest designing at JUGS for the entire month!

How exciting! And that nudge was just what I needed to get my mojo back! (Of course by the time you read this things may have changed again.... one never knows, LOL)

The cue word is feathers:

I had this wonderful Visible Image stamp set  unused in my stash - time to get it inky! I simple CASEd the packaging of this set using smooshing with distress inks. Added the feathers and the sentiment and a few more dots flying away from the big feather.

Come and join us at JUGS, getting your feathers some use! 

BTW - you can get this stamp set at Topflight Stamps  at a 12% discount with code FUNSTAMPING

Stay home and stay healthy!

Happy Stamping!

Topflight Stamps - Geometric Birthday

Hi Everyone,

It's Topflight Stamps day!

I also want to congratulate Coni from Which Craft? who left comment #9 on the Topflight birthday hop and was  picked by Mr. Random to get a $15 gift certificate to the store. Have fun shopping!!!!

I am always one that falls for geometric images, so I grabbed this set (see the picture below)

I stamped the triangles onto rainbow paper, but you could sponge it yourself without a problem. I cut it out. I then stamped the triangles onto my card base and glued the cut out ones over the stamped ones. Added the enamel dots and a generic sentiment.

I think it makes for a great masculine birthday card or anything else in the masculine world ;)

Hope you liked this. See you next week with more Topflight inspiration!

Katzelkraft - Andra Tutto Bene

Hi Everyone,

as you all know, Wednesday is Katzelkraft day on my blog.I am taking a frog break, LOL!

 I decided to play with the  Katzelkraft Meerkats instead.

At Heindesign - a German stamp company they have a stamp project - you can create a card or post card and send it to them and you will get a Andra Tutto Bene stamp - this means everything will be alright. It is Italian. In Italy the people applauded all the COVID helpers with those signs on their balconies. It is such an uplifting message. I decided to play along. The envelope for this card you will see next week.

Meerkats KTZ216, Flamingos and Friends KTZ224

I inked up an acrylic bloc with distress oxide inks, spritzed with water and smooshed it onto regular card stock. The meerkats I colored with water brush markers and cut them out. Added them to the card after it dried. I printed out the sentiment on my computer. The cute little bees are from the set Flamingos and Friends. 

Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration! 

If you feel the urge to buy any Katzelkraft products, you can also order them in the US from those companies: Topflight Stamps, Lost Coast Designs, or Frantic Stamper.
