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.

21-00027 Swirling Heart Stencil


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...

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
