Birthday Giraffe

Hi Everyone,

I have to sneak in a card in between our STAMPloration blog hop.......I just made to play in some challenges. That cute giraffe was nudging me for the last few days to get inked up - I finally gave in......



Added Washi tape in the background and embossed a scrap piece of card stock with a Sizzix Embossing Folder. The giraffe is by YNS - I colored it with Copics and fuzzy cut it. The sentiment and inlaid triangle die cut is also by YNS. I mounted the Kraft panel with foam tape.


Linking up with:

 Your Next Stamp #14 - Sketch
The Kraft Journal - CAS Embossed
The Male Room - Washi tape
My time to Craft - Zoo animals
Snippets Playground - use a snippet (giraffe and Kraft paper)

Die ist ja knuffelig, wie sie so schön keck schaut!!
Frag' sie doch mal, ob sie mit seiner Majestät spielen möchte, aber vorsichtig, sie sollte seine Majestät nicht von oben herab anschauen ..*kaputtlach*.

Don't think I've ever seen a happier giraffe. Looks like he's up to something, doesn't he? Anyhoo, using the dry embossed panel really made him POP! And all the other little special embellishments are awesome. He's a charmer and a winner in my book.

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
