STAMPlorations Inspiration #100

Hi Everyone,
its inspiration time at STAMPlorations! And a special post it is - it is the 100 inspiration post! Hurrahhh! Now that is  reason to celebrate!


My stamp set:
preview-BGBCDinoThings

 You probably all know I love those Dino Things by Becca Cruger! Could not resist in creating my own Pterodactyl Vampires here. Did some masking, sponging and water coloring and added various Washi tapes. Its a one layer card - not sure if the Washi counts as layer....


Make sure to leave a comment for your chance to win one of the stamp sets featured by the DT in this post.

 So look at all those fabulous cards the Inspiration Girls made and leave them some love! It may pay off :)

Linking up with:
Crafty Calendar Challenge - Halloween
Challenge up your Life - Hocus Pocus
CASology - Spooky
 Happy Stamping!

Such a fun card, Cornelia. Love how you've taken a non-Halloween image and adapted it for the occasion.

Bwahahahahahahaha! Does that sound like a wicked laugh? This card just delights me and proves, once again, how clever you are. And with the talent to pull it off, to boot. Really spooky background and those funny, horrific, bloody-mouthed pterodactyls just makes me grin...even though I'm supposed to be scared.

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...
