Stempel Spass

       Hi Everyone, It's  Topflight Stamps   day!  this week we are featuring Mothers Day or spring cards. I made a card for my mother in law. I hope she will like it! I used this beautiful Grunge Flower from Melina Dahl. Unfortunately it's out of stock right now, but I liked to a similar one at the bottom of this post. I stamped it twice with a little bit of masking and water colored around it to get that negative effect. In the end I thought it's a bit bland, so I added some grey to the flowers. I stamped the sentiment onto vellum and heat embossed it in black.  I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration.

       Hi Everyone, I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post. I used a gel print background from my stash and added some stenciling (Tim Holtz - Cityscape die). Stamped the "Liberty Lady" on a piece of scrap paper, colored it with watercolors, elongated the spikes and cut it out. Drew the torch. Added the sentiment. Sponged around the bottom a bit. The stamps I used are from the following sets: Les Dodus  - KTZ 242,  Carpe Diem KTZ206  (FRANCE) Chunky Animals - KTZ242,  Carpe Diem  KTZ206  (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting!

 Hi Everybody, Some of the products I have used have been provided to me from various companies I design for. Affiliate links may be used in the links provided below.  You may be familiar with the new card kits that Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps carries in the store. They are fabulous!  For this card I used the sentiment from the new  Card Kit 3 . Below you can see the details on the two new kits.  I used the crown from the  Card Kit 4  and added the wonderful silhouette Martini Lady stamp , although without her martini... I fuzzy cut them both and colored the crown. I used an ancient patterned paper for my background.  Here are the new April card kits: Card Kit 3                                                                                                        Card Kit 4 Each kit comes with 10 precut and prescored white card bases with envelopes and two stamps, as you can see in the picture below.

    Hi Everyone, here comes the last teaser for the new release coming into the shop at  Funky Fossil Designs !  I am showing you cards made with three of the new sets. For my first card I used "More Furry Friends" and "Small Print 2". I also could not help myself and snuck in the flying pig from the previously released set Hogs and Kisses . For the background I used the " In the Clouds " stencil.  My second  card is made with the set "Heartfelt Tree" I drew a line and "hung" the little birdhouses and colored them in rainbow colors. The wonderful sentiment is from the same set. Tomorrow is the big day! There will be five new sets.

      Hi Everyone, It's  Topflight Stamps   day!  Somehow Easter just wasn't on my radar this year, so I struggled to make some last minute Easter cards. A while ago I specifically got this wonderful rabbit from Hobby Arts to make Easter cards and then all of a sudden I almost missed it......But this rabbit can be used for more than just Easter. He is such a cutie! I stamped the rabbit and colored him with water brush pens. Added the greenery - from the same stamp set. Added the sentiment and attached some thread to it for more interest. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration.
