Simply Create Too Challenge #39 - and a blog to visit

Simply Create Too has a new challenge to play in - the theme is  Fathers Day or Male Card.
  You have until June 20th to enter.
Simply Create Too

I made two cards for the challenge - both are pretty simple. 


I stamped the mustache and the hat using those $1.50 stamps sets from JoAnns. I  mounted the white cardstock on patterned paper and put the googly eyes on. Some Washi tape to finish them off. 



By the way - Simply Create Too has and extra youth entry option. Children 12 years and under can play in there and there is a separate youth challenge button to win! My son has started to play in the challenge - he occasionally enjoys making cards. And I like this much better than him spending his free time playing computer games. But I did encourage him to start his own card blog -


- and that he enjoys even more than making cards - LOL! You would just make him sooooo happy if you visit his blog and leave a little love for him there!

I am entering those card into:
Simon Says Challenge - Masculine/ Father's Day
ABC challenge - Masculine Cards
Crafty Creations Challenges - One for the Boys

Hab soeben einen kleinen Kommentar bei deinem Sohn hinterlassen. Ein paar ermutigende Worte und gleich hat man Lust auf die nächste Challenge...
In diesem Alter hat mein Sohn viel und gut gezeichnet, ...er wollte später mal Architekt werden. Das hat sich aber geändert, jetzt studiert er um Ingenieur als Informatiker zu werden und er hat nur noch Zeit und Hände für den Computer!
Deine beiden Karten gefallen mir sehr gut und die Kulleraugen finde ich genial!

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...
