House of Cards July Challenge

Hi Everyone,

We'd like to thank everyone who's played along with us so far here at House of Cards!  We've got a NEW format--we're now a monthly challenge with style teams posting inspiration weekly!  This week, the clean and simple team is showing off their creations using our monthly challenge prompt.  Please welcome the newest member of the CAS team- Toni. She wowed us with this card from our blog hop  challenge. 



For all of us who are bow challenged - it can be a tiny one....  even I can manage that, haha!



Thanks for checking us out!  We hope you're inspired to join us with your creations this week!

Check out our House Rules HERE before linking up!

And of course I had to play in a challenge with this card - as you probably can guess, it is this month TAWS challenge.


I used the TAWS sets: Kid n' Caboodle, Enchanted and Jibber Jabber for this card, did some paper piecing and used a Memory Box stencil.

I am also linking this up with this month Bizzy Becs Challenge - Anything goes
and with Seize the Birthday - anything goes

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

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
