Crafting with a Friend

 Hi Everyone,

I had such a great afternoon - one of my crafting friends came over and we made cards together! The first two cards my friend designed for me to make. Aren't they pretty?



The layered flowers are by Simon Says. The little leaves on the first card are Papertrey as is the sentiment. The sentiment on the second card is I also by Papertrey .


I even decorated the inside (was not my idea...)


And then I played around with this pretty Altenew set she brought


and made another Simon Says card - this time with water color paper. I stamped with distress inks and spritzed them before stamping.



The cards I designed for her I'll show you in a later post - gotta keep some goodies to post for those times when I have no or little time to craft...

Must be so wonderful to have someone to craft with. Can just imagine the giggling that would go on and all the help you would give each other with new ideas etc. All of your cards are so beautiful and love all the floral stamps you used. Those butterfly stamps by Altenew are some of my favourites and love the way you stamped them with that sprinkling of black ink across the front. So excited to see you at Just Add Ink and hope you can come back again!!

Wow! Busy day in the craft world. All these are gorgeous. Each is like a walk through a garden. The colors of the first are lovely and unique. They all look hand painted, as is the trend I've been seeing in the blogosphere. You've use your crafty time well.

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...
