Addicted to Stamps and More #140

Hi Everyone,

Its challenge time at ATSM! For the next two weeks we have a gorgeous photo inspiration for you:


Here is my card:



I used this antiqued mirror designer paper, that I once got dirt cheap at Michaels and it needs to be used one of those days....smeared embossing paste on it, using that fun ARTPlorations Stencil - Shutters and let it dry. The rose is by STAMPlorations from the set Blossom Overture. I water colored it and fuzzy cut it and mounted it on foam tape. the sentiment is also by STAMPlorations from the new set Fond Expressions

Our wonderful sponsor for this challenge is

The winner will get 7 digi stamps

Here is another view of my card - its a little tricky to photograph, because of the silver surface.


Come on and play with us and check out all the fabulous card by our wonderful DT!

Ha, das Papier habe ich auch (Geschenk von einer Freundin)! Ich habe es auch noch nie benützt... Wäre wahrscheinlich nie auf die Idee gekommen, darauf zu stencillen - danke für die Idee!

Love love love!
Thought you had found out how to create the distress mirror effect but it was the opposite way you used the stencil.
What can I say Cornelia love the rose too. :)

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...
