Jingle Belles combined with 52CCT #18

This is the week of combined challenges....52 CCT has shades of green as a theme and the Jingle Belles challenge is a sketch - see below.  




I made my onw banner paper - using Versamark and clear embossed it. The Christmas bauble is from Prickly Pear - which comes with a matching die. I popped it up with foam dots and "hung" it from a silver thread.


The dark green almost looks black in the photo - but its green - I swear! And since its a Christmas card I used some Stickles on the ornament. And since it fits the challenge I am also linking this up with the Sparkles Monthly challenge - monochromatic

Ich weiß nicht, wie es dir bei dieser Herausforderung ging, ...ich hatte schon daran zu knabbern!
Grün ist so gar nicht meine Farbe, ausser in der Natur aber beim Kartenbasteln komme ich nicht sehr gut damit zurecht.
Du hast eine sehr schöne Karte gestaltet und die Challenge perfekt gemeistert!

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...
