Happy 2014!


I wish you all a HAPPY, HEALTHY and CRAFTY NEW YEAR!

I just wanted to share a actually not so quick card with you. I used a brand new Darice embossing folder for the firework and took my quickie glue pen and drew along the lines. The glue dries up kind of fast, so you have to do this in sections. 


I sprinkled glitter on it. the numbers are cut with the PTI numbers border die, using glitter card stock.


It actually looks fantastic in real life - just like a real firework - here is looks kind of cheesy.... I am sharing it anyhow. Both my husband and son really liked it - usually I just can get an "oh , its nice" out of them....

I am linking this card with CAS-ual Fridays

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
