Guest Designing at Colour me....! challenge #58

Hi Everyone, this is my second week for guest designing at colour me....! this month! I am sure you are familiar with this fun color challenge by now. For this week we have this beautiful inspiration picture for you - just right for Valentine's Day. 
Its pink and red, combined with a neutral color:

I settled for this beautiful Memory Box  - Butterfly delights.


I sponged each wing in pink and also brushed it with Wink of Stella, but that is really hard to see in the picture...The die cuts words are Papertrey and I added some sequins from  Neat&Tangled.
I mounted the white cardbase on red cardstock.
Here is another view of my card:


Now go and play and hopefully I 'll see you linking up with us!

And don't forget to check out the amazing DT cards - so much inspiration over there!

How gorgeous! I've seen this die used a few times but never like this with the wing tips coloured. Its a genius idea and so effective.

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
