STAMPloration Inspiration #74


Hi Everyone,
its inspiration time at STAMPlorations!


I heat embossed the Calla Lily with white WOW embossing powder on vellum and the "shaded" it with a paper clip. Tore the right side of the vellum and attached it to black card stock. Added the sentiment and sequins.

Saw this at STAMPlorations and it took my breath away...fairly flew over here to your site to get an even closer look. The shading is phenomenal. This is the kind of card that's so hard to make for me, but you did it, seemingly, with no problem at all. My mouth is still hanging open. Better shut it before the flies find it.

Hello Cornelia: I love the effect of the Vellum embossed like this, it's amazing the beautiful shades you get with just an embossing tool, or in your case, a paper clip, simply gorgeous.
Thank you for sharing.
Hugs,
Maria Rodriguez.

Gorgeous card! I love how you embossed the image, and then colored the vellum with a paperclip. It really pops against the black cardstock! http://ruzascraftcorner.blogspot.com/

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
