So Suzy - Swirly Heart

 Hi Everyone,

I am back today with another card I made with those wonderful sentiment stamps So Suzy carries. this one is by Audrey Hepburn and goes along perfectly with the Swirly Heart stamp:


I masked a diagonal strip on my card base and sponged with distress inks. 

Used my Misti and stamped the swirly heart in white pigment ink



And then moved the card just a smidgen and over stamped with black ink



So you get a thin white outline and a deep black shadow.


Stamped the sentiment:



Hope you liked this!

What a vibrant and beautiful background and wow that stamp is fantastic in the black against it. Thank you for the tip on the pigment ink and the shadow effect. Stunning card!

This is beautiful!! I LOVE that diagonal distress ink feature. Makes the black POP right off the card. Really lovely design.

Hmmm, ich sehe schon, ich muss mir wirklich bald einen MISTI kaufen... Coole Technik und Layout! Schöne Farben!

Absolutely gorgeous.

Oh that is lovely. That's what the MISTI is good for - positioning where you want it. I love the brightness of the background with the starkness of the black. Xx

Wow! Audrey was one of may favorite actresses and I love this quote. Beautiful swirls over that vibrant strip of color. Love this ghosting technique...it adds such depth to a simple card.

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...
