Topflight Stamps - Katzelkraft Christmas

   Hi Everyone, This week's theme is anything goes on the  Topflight blog .  I am now in major Christmas card mode. Don't expect to see much else for the next couple of weeks... I have a shaped card for you today. I don't make those very often... It's quite an easy one. You take a 11x8.5" piece of card stock and cut it lengthwise in half. Then you fold it along the diagonal. and then you fold it again, matching up the long and short ends. I hope that was clear....This creates a nice pocket - you could use it as a gift card or money holder as well. I stamped onto the card. Added some wood patterned paper to the inside. cut  some paper to fit the outer backside and stamped the Santa in his bed onto it. Brushed around in black and blue. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration. And here are the stamp supplies I used:  Keep Calm KTZ159 , Noel KTZ158 Christmas Sayings  - KTZ302              Wood textures

Katzelkraft - Enjoy the Moment

Hi Everyone, I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post.  I wanted to play along with  Tag along with Isa  over on Facebook - see graphic below. I think I used enough elements to qualify.... I first stamped the books and then the owl. Masked them. Used a stencil from Funky Fossil Designs for the background. Added the scrip and the branches. Brushed around the edges and colored the owl a bit. Heat embossed the sentiment and cut it out. The stamps I used are from the following sets: Cats on Books - KTZ295,  Owls - KTZ237,  Christmas Snowflakes - KTZ282,  Birch Forest - KTZ285,  Enjoy Quotes - KTZ291 (FRANCE) Cats on Books  - KTZ295,  Owls  - KTZ237,  Christmas Snowflakes - KTZ282,  Birch Forest  - KTZ285,  Enjoy Quotes - KTZ291   (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting!

Funky Fossil Designs - Calendar January

Hi Everybody!  I am back with a post for  Funky Fossil Designs . If you missed out on the wonderful calendar Funky Fossil had in the store last year - now is your change of grabbing one of the new ones! They are still available , but last year they sold like hot cakes and were gone in no time!  I used the delightful set Woodcut Woodlands to create my January page. I wanted a wintery feel to it, so I restrained myself with the colors. Jus a bit of light blue sponging, some grey for the ground and light grey stamping on the left side of my paper. Found it a bit bland, so I added the mushrooms with some thread and also stamped directly onto the calendar. Be careful if you do that, because the paper has a slight gloss to it and the stamps slide easily on the paper. That's why my hedgehog has such a small eye.... Oh well, you live and learn! All stamps are form the same set. The stamps I used: Desktop Calendar A5 Woodcut Woodlands    I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting! Grab you

Topflight Stamps - Gift Tags

Hi Everyone, This week's theme is all about tags, containers or gift card holders on the  Topflight blog .  I went with tags - always come to good use! Those tags are really easy to make and you can easily mass produce them. I used a tag die from my stash and cut them out of card stock. I brushed the tags with two different inks (Lavinia Elements see below and wild honey distress ink) and used my beloved Lavinia stamps to create the scenery. I did some generational stamping as you can see. Added some white splatters for some snow and added the heat embossed sentiment.  Lastly I attached some twine from my stash. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration. Don't forget about our current Black Friday sale: And here are the stamp supplies I used:  Small Pine Trees , Fairy Fir Tree 2 large Floral Wreath ,  Pipin mini Basil and Bibi Merry Christmas sentiment strip ,  Blender Brushes               Linking up with: Simon Say

Doctored the sentiment to make it fit. The stamps I used are rom the following sets: Santa's Dog - Solo145, Winter Wonderland - KTZ280 (FRANCE) Santa's Dog  - Solo145, Winter Wonderland  - KTZ280   (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting!

Funky Fossil Designs - Late Fall Berries

      Hi Everybody!  I am back with a card for  Funky Fossil Designs . I need to show this card before it gets to late and winter will be here...... There is that beautiful  Summer Twilight rub-on set  in the store that perhaps you have seen. I experimented and rubbed one of the images onto some sticky back linen that I have now in my stash for years.....It worked beautifully! For my background I used a Kraft piece of card stock. Stamped the very large stamp called  Wildflower Fields  on it and sponged with some distress inks. The little tag and sentiment are from the paper pad  Summer Twilight  . The supplies I used: Summer Twilight rub-on set Wildflower Fields  stamp Summer Twilight  (sentiment) I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with:
