STAMPlorations CASEplorations January

Hi Everyone,


come and CASE with us here at STAMPlorations!

Our guest designer for this month is going to be the amazingly creative Laura Bassen from Doublestick Heaven, who made such a wonderful card for our January release last year, that we decided to get her back and CASE her! how fun is that?

 Here is my CASE of Laura's card:


My supplies:

Here is Laura's card:



So you see I basically reversed what Laura did - I colored my background with distress inks and then smeared white embossing paste over the stencil. Added the sentiment  with foam tape, some gold string and tiny sequins.


Laura made another beauty and our amazing DT has quite some inspiration to offer! Go and check it out!

So you want to play along? Case Laura's card  (this is a change from the prior rules) and link it up HERE - you have the whole month to join in! And of course - there are prizes to win!

Starting off 2016 with a bang, I see. Amazing color and the reverse stencilling is so effective. This is one awesome CASE. I'd say, you nailed it. Kudos.

Thanks for entering the challenge at A Place To Start. You are a woman of your word! :D)

Your CASE is fabulous, Cornelia! It is always challenging to CASE a project and find imaginative ways to let your own creativity shine through, while maintaining an essence of the original design. I think you have done a masterful job of both! Your technique is flawless! This is a WOW project!

Our challenge this week at A Place To Start is: Case This Card. Would love to see your interpretation.

Hugz,
Chana, Owner

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...
