STAMPlorations Sketch Challenge #20

Time again for a new sketch challenge at STAMPlorations! This one is really fun - you'll see it below!

I stamped the Sketched: Tulips from STAMPlorations onto watercolor paper three times and then sprinkled Brusho over it and misted it with water. I let it dry and cut it into strips. I glued the strips onto white card stock and added the heat embossed sentiment from Bold Sentiments: Hello. I mounted the sentiment strip on foam tape and added twine.
 Here is the sketch:


 And here is my card again, this time photographed in front of the green wall in my craft room:



 Head over to the blog to get inspired by our fabulous DT and our fabulous, fun and famous Guest Designer Darnell from djkardkreations. If you happen not to know her (who doesn't) you gotta visit her blog - so much fun to read and so much creativity to discover there!

Our challenge ends September 26, the winner will be announced September 14.

You are TOO kind, Cornelia! (I'll send you the money tomorrow.) It is indeed an honor to be guesting with such a talented team at Stamplorations!!

I am blown away by your bright and genius card! I love the way you did the sediment and the flip of twine to give it a bouncy and fun feel, but that Brusho "canvas" art just took my breath away!! Hugs, Darnell

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...
