AEI♥U

The July challenge is still going on at Avery Elle and below you see the inspiration photo. I finally own some Avery Elle stamps, although I hardly used any for this challenge....



I cut out strips of colored card stock, adhered them to white card stock and put a clear acrylic sheet behind the colored strips. It was kind of hard to photograph this card, but I think with three different views you get how it looks like... I like the middle view best, where the light reflects off the acrylic....




The sets I used were Bright Days and To the Point.

Ahhh, you guys seem to like my Germany pictures - I have gotten some very nice comments about them - thank you all, I love your comments :)
So here are some more pics - this time as collages. We - my son and friends of us took the train to Tegernsee and hiked up the Baumgartenschneid, which is 1444 m high. The weather was not great, so we did not have a good view, but we enjoyed ourselves nonetheless!









And once again, have a great day!

Tolle Bilder wieder! Das erinnert mich an früher wenn unsere Tante zu Besuch kam, da fuhren wir des öfteren zum großen Arber und uns Kindern machte die kraxlerei eine menge Spaß. Ich wandere gerne im Urlaub und am liebsten in den Bergen, wie du dir denken kannst.

Nun zu deiner Karte...
ehrlich gesagt wäre mir zu diesem Foto rein gar nichts eingefallen, aber du hast es wieder geschafft eine überaus interessante Karte damit zu gestalten. Hut ab!!

Saw this over at AE and loved your take on that photo. And perusing your Germany photos I would say that that little fox was a little too close for comfort, eh?

This is so beautiful and trendy card, Cornelia. Love all the soft colored stripes on white and perfect take on the challenge, friend. I have seen few of your Germany pictures and I loved these too. Very beautiful places and you have captured very beautiful shots. :-)

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
