Ombre at Moxie Fab


I made this card a while ago to send to my Blogging friend Sylvie to thank her for the give-away I won on her blog. I also had the Moxie Fab challenge in mind (forgive me, Sylvie), when I made this card. But the fact that the package came from Gibraltar and me being away in Texas delayed the mailing of this card and we are almost at the end of this challenge.... Sylvie - don't look......




I used the Impression Obsession background stamp - Gradation, sponged it with various greens. The sentiment is the Memory Box thanks die, the butterflies are a Tim Holtz die.

Gorgeous ombre card, Cornelia! I love the greens.

Thank you ever so much for your sweet comment on my blog. I never enter a challenge with the idea that I will actually win anything, because there are so many great cardmakers out there. I just like to play with their ideas and themes. So, it was a total surprise, although a delightful one to get an HM.

Hallo Cornelia!

Ersteinmal ganz, ganz vielen lieben Dank für diese vielen lieben Kommentare auf meinem Blog!!
Ich habe mich sehr darüber gefreut, dass Du Dir so ausführlich Zeit dafür genommen hast :-)

Dieses Kärchen hier ist einfach nur wunder-wunderschön!
Ich liebe diesen Farbverlauf, den Du da gezaubert hast, dazu die Schmetterlinge wie sie schwerelos davonfliegen... Ein Traum!
Ausserdem ist der Effekt mit diesem Hintergrundstempel echt erstaunlich!

Viele liebe Grüße :-)

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers

Some more Christmas Cards...

Hi Everyone, there still are some Christmas cards  I made awhile ago and have not yet posted.... This one I made for the  Runway Inspired Challenge . The inspiration photo is below. I found it a little tricky to make this into a Christmas card, but with the help  of Neat&Tangled stamps it worked....The stitched dies are by Simon Says. Added some Washi tape on top (the headdress) and silver glitter paper at the bottom (the floor and silver shoes) and voila a Christmas card! My second card I made with an iStencil, gold embossing paste, faux pearls, an enamel dot and lots of splatters. The stitched die I cut the Kraft panel with is by Simon Says. I love this stencil and stenciled cards are just so quick and easy to make. I used this one for several cards this year, on of which you can see HERE . http://www.istencils.com/store/products/22-00029 I am linking up this card with: Stamps and fun=Creativity - Christmas U...
