Little Tangles combined with Color Throwdown

Hi, Everyone, 

just a quick post for today. I won the last challenge at Little Tangles with THIS card set and that got me all excited to play again, although I play over there quite often - love their stamps and I am slowly increasing my collection. For this challenge its a simple sketch, which lends itself perfectly to using my brand new Punchinella stamp I recently bought.... 


I inked it up with Versamark and then sprinkled 3 different kind of embossing powders over it and heat embossed it. I then sponged in the same colors , but reversed the order. I mounted it onto a colored background paper. The sentiment is also by Neat&Tangled - the set is Across The Card. I love this one - its modern feel and CAS look. 


Lastly I added sequins and gold thread with tiny gold beads.
The color scheme I got from this weeks Color Throwdown challenge.

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
