CASE this Sketch

Hi Everyone,

I am playing along with CASE this Sketch this week.
I pulled out my little used MFT dies and cut them with silver metallic paper.


Stringed up the tools on a red string and used wood paper as background, cut with a Simon Says stitched die. In addition I dry embossed the white card stock with my Papertrey Woodgrain embossing plate. the sentiment is Studio 112 stamps, heat embossed in white.

I love this!! It's a great take on the sketch. I just love those tool dies in silver. I wish I had me some of those dies! Hanging them up that way against the woodgrain background is awesome! A winner for sure! :-)

Unbelievably clever. Girl, your eye for design is unmatched. The way you've interpreted the sketch is so imaginative and truly adorable (if you can call a masculine card adorable). This simply has to win the challenges, it's too perfect.

My dad would have been delighted. Women love diamonds, and my dad just such a great tool. Unfortunately, my dad this card will not get, and I wonder, in that case what do the card, because the one we have prepared performs poorly when compared with your card.
hugs,
BozenA

Such a wonderful idea, Cornelia. I love the bright silver. Most tools I see are somewhat rusty. ;)

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...
