Make it Monday #146


Hello again, I am playing with Make it Monday. The theme is to create an angled background. Ashley Newell has a great video to show you how to do just that. I choose to go with all white, using all the PTI embossing plates that I own....



Its pretty quick and easy to make this card - just up my alley....


All the other supplies are PT as well - except the sequins.  I am not so happy with the small "happy", but I don't have any larger one from PTI - may be I should invest into more supplies - what do you think?

I am also linking this card with the Snippets Playground - use snippets. I used paint chips for the numbers and the TH - they are all different shades of red, but it does not show to well in the photo....

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
