A FUN Day and some cards, of course!

I was recently at the birthday bash for Mama Elephant and there I met Cammy from Pink Room Therapy, my new stamping friend. She invited me along with her friends Michele from the Enchanted Stamper and Claudia (so blog) to a Christmas card making get-together. Everybody designed a card and brought materials for the others to make their own. We all have a similar style of card making, so that was easy. I designed my card the night before - had to work until 9 pm  - that did not leave me much time - CAS it had to be.  So here is a photo from the cards we made:



From left to right you see Cammy's, Michele's, my card and Claudia's card.



  Above is Cammy with her sweet daughter and below are Michele and Claudia proudly showing off their works


And that is all of us with our cards!



Here is a close-up  of the card I designed.


Materials: Memory Box Pine Border Die, mounted on dimensional tape, sentiment - Mama Elephant Merry Greetings, Papertrey Woodgrain embossing plate - used under the grey panel - you can see it a little bit on the picture, snowflake punch from Michaels and some gems.

I will put this card into the Snippets Playground - used snippets for the trees and snowflake


And here is a better picture of the other 3 cards:



 Thanks for visiting and enjoy your Sunday!

TFS your fun card making session with us. Your card is totally lovely. I think that is one super MB die, and it certainly made up into a gorgeous sparkly card on this one. Will have to case it, as I need some CAS cards if I'm to get my projects finished & mailed in time. Hugs

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...
