Stenciled Thank You



Hi Everyone,

this is my second post today, if you are looking for the STAMPlorations inspiration post scroll down or click HERE.

I am trying my luck with Less is More today - a real challenge for me! Neutral colors is the theme. Not my thing.....

But here we go:


I was playing again with my iStencils. This one is called WAVY STRIPES. It is brand new, I hadnot yet used it.

6x6 PTP-108 wavy stripes
http://www.istencils.com/store/products/6x6-ptp-108-wavy-stripes

You can do really cool stuff with it, shifting it  for your second stencil layer. 


To keep with the color scheme I added a Kraft stripe and sentiment (by SSS).

I am also linking up with:
Just us Girls - Thank you
Inkspirational - Thank you with something new (stencil)

And if you are wondering how I made this card -hop over to STAMPlorations and you'll find the tutorial for it.


Happy Stamping!

You always do fabulous optical illusion cards, Cornelia, and this one is no exception! And I love your vibrant Folk Flowers card. Those colours really pop on the black, and I like the added dots :)

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...
