Stamp Connection # 8

Hi Everyone,

Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja from Little Art Cottage and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 3rd Sunday of the month and this is our eights transatlantic get-together!

This time it was Tanja's turn to pick the requirements:
Cute Critters + Christmas



I bought this Purple Onion stamp last year and never used it.... time to ink it up! Colored it with pencils and added some glitter to the Santa hat. The hat is from the Crazy Birds addition. It has a good size and fits all sorts of animals. The hoppy sentiment is Stampin' up and the rest is Simon Says.
Added a thin strip of PP and an enamel dot for balance.


I just wanna kiss that frog - who knows what he will turn into?

I love this Stacy Yacula stamp so much I bought it...but, sadly, never inked it. You've inspired me. going to do it, soon. Think you're addition of the Santa hat is brilliant. Such a darling card.

So eine witzige Weihnachtskarte! Der Accessoire-Stempel der Crazy Birds passt super zu dem Frosch. Deine Karte war mir im Link-Up für die Stempelküche-Challenge sofort aufgefallen. Leider hatte ich vor, über und nach Weihnachten so viel um die Ohren, dass ich gar nicht mehr zu Kommentieren gekommen bin. Jetzt ist die Challenge längst vorbei, aber ich freu mich trotzdem, dass du mitgemacht hast. :o) Und vielen Dank für deine lieben Kommentare auf meinem Blog.

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

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
