Fusion #17

I have not played in the Fusion challenge forever, but when I saw this picture and the sketch I had to....



                                                               

I ended up making two cards, using the leftover scraps for the second card.


I used the Make a Splash set from Technique Tuesday. the newspapaer background I stamped with the Hero Arts Friend definition stamp in grey. I used a Cuttlebug Embossing Folder and the oval I cut with a Die-namics Die.
I am also linking this card with the Simon Says - Emboss it challenge and with Night Shift stamping - Summer, because whale = ocean = summer fun - or do you think its too much of a stretch?



For this card I used Hero Arts Delicate Blossoms , the sentiment is Inkadinkadoo Chelsea. Some Memory Box pearls and a wide ribbon.
I am linking this card up with the Pixie's Crafty Snippets Playground - after all its made up entirely from leftovers...

I am also linking this card with the Die cut Diva's - Let's celebrate challenge

I like the first card much better. What do you think? Thanks for stepping by!

I like them both! Great job on the inspiration sketch. If I had to pick one...maybe the whale? I'm partial to blue and to fish though.

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
