Pink Christmas

I Everyone,

I have been playing with embossing paste and embossing powder and this is the result:


A pink Christmas card. I took an iStencil for my tree. I wanted an ombre effect with the embossing powder, which I did not quite get. Oh well.... I probably should have just sponged instead of heat embossed....live and learn, right?

I took the pretty holiday sentiment from CUTplorations. I  die cut it twice, same with the star ( black fun foam and silver card stock). Also added splatters and put some Stickles on the star.

Your ombre tree may look different from what you set out to achieve, but it's gorgeous nonetheless. Love the sentiment and splatters too.

Don't know what you were going for but the results are spectacular. The embosssing adds so much texture and the color look fabulous. Those spatters are so perfectly placed...how did you manage that??? Masking??? Anyway, apparently, I'm not the only one who loves it.

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
