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

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
