Joy Clair - Spring Flowers

Hi Everyone,

did you see this gorgeous April Flower set at the Joy Clair stamp release blog hop? I made two cards with it:


I really like the way this card came out! Did some masking and fuzzy cutting (the umbrella and the boots). I added glossy accents to the boots. The sentiment is heat embossed and I grounded everything with that enamel dot. The background rain stamp is by IO. 


Here you can see the glossy accents better.
My second card:





For this card I did a lot of masking and colored everything with Copics


Hope you liked this!
Go and visit the Joy Clair blog to see the inspiration cards from our talented DT! And don't forget to play with us in the Joy Clair March challenge - the theme is Spring and we have a beautiful inspiration picture to give you some colors to play with!

Die erste Karte kann ich hier leider nicht sehen, aber bei Joy Clair habe ich sie mir angeschaut.
Da regnet es aber sehr heftig!!! Na ja, die Gummistiefel stehen sogar schon in einer Pfütze!!!
Hast du für die Regen"striche" einen Stempel oder sind die etwa alle per Hand gezogen???
Zutrauen würde ich es dir auf alle Fälle!!!
Die zweite Karte ist toll. Einen Schirm habe ich noch nie als Pflanzgefäß benutzt. Ob der das Wasser hält??? Oder stehen die armen Blumen immer im Trocknen??? *lachkaputt*
Liebe Grüße

What brilliant use of that background stamp, Cornelia ... love how the vibrant red brolly and shiny boots are the bright spots amid the rain! Your umbrella full of blooms is just delightful ... such fab masking and colouring! Hugs, Anita :)

Oh, I absolutely adore your umbrella cards! The red/black/white of the first is so striking; the flower-filled brolly of the second, day brightening! I need a pair of shiny red boots today...snowing and raining here...

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...

I opened the frame on the side to have the butterflies and color spill out. Added lots of splatters and the heat embossed sentiment Your next stop on the hop is the talented Henriette - you are going to love her card!
