Happy Hanukkah !

Hi Everyone,

I have not played with Make it Monday in ages - time to change that! The topic is splattering, one of my favorite things to do! If you are hesitant to do it - watch the wonderful video at the Make it Monday blog from Danielle Flanders she explains it expertly!


I needed some Hanukkah cards so I pulled out the two little Papertrey sets I have and combined them. Its all heat embossed. Added the splatters and sponged some white ink around the candles and stars to give them some glow.


I know, its a bit late for that, since its starts on Sunday, but since its going on for 8 nights my cards at least will get to their destination before its over......

I am linking up with:

Muse: Christmas Visions - inspired by Chris Blagrave's wonderful card

Your Hanukkah card is truly beautiful. For the first time in my cardmaking, I have needed to create a Hanukkah card this year. I must say, examples in blogland are few and far between. Yours is a lovely design, and I thank you for telling us what supplies you used to create it.

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...
