Shopping Our Stash Challenge 277

Hi Everyone,

This is my second week as Guest Designer over at Shopping Our Stash - in case you don't know its a weekly challenge, where you are supposed to use something in your stash - preferably something neglected ;)

This weeks challenge is Gobble 'til you Wobble (make a Thanksgiving or a Thank you card)


I pulled out this ancient set by Doodle Factory - not sure if they still exist and stamped on Yupo paper and heat embossed. You have to be careful with the heat - the paper warps very easily. I colored the pumpkins with alcohol inks and added the die cut sentiment (Penny Black)


Grab Our Badge!




The challenge runs until Midnight November 14th - come and play along!

Happy Stamping!

Linking up with:
Bastel Traum - Fall/Herbst
AAA Challenge - Thanksgiving/Thanks

Wow what an awesome CAS card, I so admire crafters that can make a one layer card look awesome. Great colouring on the pumpkin too.
Oh Cornelia, this is gorgeous!! I've never heard of this paper but it looks amazing colored so beautifully. I thought you made this card using some kind of modeling paste and a stencil, it has so much dimension and texture!!!
CAS is hard for me and, like Barbara, I admire and envy the people who can make a one layer card look this stunning.
Thank you for sharing and being the guest designer for a second week over at SHOPPING OUR STASH.
Hugs,
Maria.

This is absolutely gorgeous! I had to look up what Yupo paper was, as I've never heard of it before, but I LOVE the effect you achieved using the alcohol inks on it.
Oh my goodness! Your card is AMAZING!!! We have been so blessed having you on board these last two weeks! I can't wait to see what you create next week! This is awesome! Thanks for Guest Designing for us at Shopping Our Stash! Cyndi, DT

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
