LOVE U

Playing the challenge game.... combining 3 challenges here
The Paper Players - sentiment only
Curtain Call - see picture below
Time out - Love/Friendship



I LOVE this card - I used this humongo "U" that I got on ebay a long time ago (Stampin' up) and have so far neglected....inked it up with neon pink ink



Puddled some distress inks at the bottom and added the love and sentiment - both from Papertrey.
Added a cork heart (SS die) and an enamel dot to fulfill the color requirements and to balance the card. On the photo below I have added some Stickles to the love die - not sure which one I like better - with or without Stickles - what do you think?

What a clever idea to puddle the blue in the bottom of the U - I love the way you curved your sentiment around the inside too. Thanks for joining us for our CAS Sentiment Challenge over at The Paper Players this week!

What a cool idea, Cornelia ... the puddle of colour inside the huge U is brilliant ... and my vote goes for stickles on the love ... it's brilliant with the neon pink! I'm delighted you're joining us at Time Out ... but can't find your card in the gallery ... linking problem perhaps? Anita :)

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...
