Stencil class Day 1: Inking & Misting

I won a spot in the Stencil class from Mama Elephant - thanks Kryssi - I am having so much fun!

Today was all about inking and misting. Since I had a late shift at work I only managed to make one card - using inking and shifting of my stencil:



I used a TCW stencil called mini Aztec, that I shifted around and sponged with different colors. 


The sentiment is from the CASual Friday stamp set RAD. I colored the AWESOME in the color scheme with pencil and used some enamel dots. Another one layer card.... I love to do them.  The color scheme is from Colour me...! challenge #4



I am also linking this card with Seize the birthday  - BIRTHDAY (anything goes)


Hopefully I'll have more time tomorrow!

Hallo Cornelia,
Danke fürs Vorbeischauen auf meinem Blog! :-)
Deine erste "stenciled" Karte ist auch genial. Ich mag die Farben, die du verwendet hast aber auch die ganze Gestaltung. Finde es extrem spannend zu sehen, wie jeder die Technik für sich umsetzt.
Liebe Grüsse.

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
