CAS(E) this Sketch #62

I have not played at CAS(E) this sketch in a long time.....But here I am with  a card for it:


 I used the STAMPlorations set Retro Mod Shapes to make this card. I stamped with Versamark and heat embossed the paper strip with clear embossing powder and then sponged in green and reds.


The dots on the side are a TCW stencil. The sentiment is Hero Arts.


Its kind of hard to photograph it right, so I took three pictures.....



I am also linking this card with the Snippets Playground - used snippets only (except the card base)
Less is More - Rainbow - well - it has most colors of the rainbow...

I always love your cards. I have a question, tho'. Was the base of the colored card not white? Or did you sponge, emboss, and then sponge some more? I'm confused why the embossed shapes aren't white. Thanks!

Hi Irene - thanks in your interest - I guess I should have mentioned it in the post, but the strip was colored to start out with, going from green to yellow to red.

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...
