City Girl versus VOGUE

 This weeks Papercrafting Inspiration immediately made me think City Girl - the fab set from STAMPlorations by Shirley - you probably know about it, she has been popping up in blogland over and over again.


I gave her a PP dress, colored her with Copics, masked her and stamped the background with one of the stamps in the Mixed Media Grunge set, also by STAMPlorations. Added glossy accents to the belt. 

Here is the inspiration picture:

You think I captured it? Does she live up to to VOGUE?


By the way - STAMPlorations has a sale going on right now:


You may want to take advantage of that :)

Have a stylish Sunday :)

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
