STAMPlorations Inspiration Project #22

Hi Everyone, its INSPIRATION day again at STAMPlorations! 

Our wonderful DT girls made some beautiful cards to entice you playing with your stamps or stencils - STAMPlorations or otherwise. And perhaps I can also inspire you to play along with us!


This is a very simple one layer card - used the brushstroke and stamped the butterflies on it. Added the sentiment, some white accents and two enamel dots. You can make that in 5 minutes....but it took me longer than that - Had to think this trough and  decide with which color challenge I should play along, etc, etc......


Here are my supplies:

Vignette: Celebrate Artsy
Trendy Butterflies
Bold Sentiments: Hello





So, if you are up for it - CASE my card or any other card and link it up HERE over at STAMPlorations. The InLinkz gallery  will be open until the 5th of July - gives you plenty of time! One winner will be randomly drawn from all entries to win a $15 gift certificate or their choice of any 2 ARTplorations stencils.
Linking up with:
ColourQ - see below
7 Days 7 Sketches - Day 7 - used the butterflies instead of photos

  

Happy stamping!

Saw this earlier at Stamplorations, but because I'm so easily distracted, didn't have time to pop over and tell you "Holy Moley girl, do you EVER make a bad card." Geez, what a talent you are. So glad I stalk...er...follow you.

I love those brushstrokes with your butterflies, and you picked a great color challenge to go with it! Cards that should take me five minutes take me more like five hours - always!

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
