HapBee Birthday

Hi Everyone,

I finally managed to make a card for my friend Monika's linky party. She is celebrating her birthday and of course I have to join in. You have to CASE one of her cards. I choose a really adorable one with a stenciled background and an animal in front and a white on black sentiment - see below. So, that's exactly what I did here:


Monika's darling card:



My materials: 
the stencil is by iStencil - its called swirling heart, but I see a whirlwind here....
The fat bee is by TAWS (Bee Unique)- I gave her glitzy vellum wings (Stickles) and a tiny googly eye.

TAWS - linky party - anything with TAWS stamps
Send a Smile 4 Kids - birthday fun
Seize the Birthday - make your own background - I wonder if the stencil counts as background - I think it does...

Hui ... da ist ja jemand wirklich schnell!! Die Schablone ist echt Klasse, ich sehe da auch eher einen Wirbelwind drin!!
Auch Karte zwei ist richtig toll geworden!! Und ich hoffe, bei uns fliegen die Bienen nicht so schnell vorbei, denn sie haben bei uns so einiges zu bestäuben!!

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...
