Stamp Connection #19

Hi Everyone,

Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja from Little Art Cottage and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 3rd Sunday of the month and this is our nineteenth transatlantic get-together!

This time it was my turn to pick the requirements:
 and I picked

Foiling



I have to use those foil papers I bought - they are collecting dust....tsk, tsk, tsk....
I water colored my background, let it dry and foiled the sentiment on it - the stamp is by Neat&Tangled, as is the splatter. Splattered some ink on it as well and added Washi Tape


It really is easy to do. Not sure, why I don't do it more often. I love how it looks. I use some craft glue i have in my stash, not the special glue recommended. It works just fine, as you can see.

Neat&Tangled - CAS
 
Lets check out  Tanja's artwork!

And then I want to add few thank yous here in the order of arrival:
THANK YOU That's Crafty - I won all those fabulous, wonderful sets over at The Craft Stamper last month. They sponsored the challenge - aren't they gorgeous?

Below is Suchi's fabulous fall card - came out of the blue without any occasion! How fun is that - gave me a BIG smile!


Now this card by Conil knocked my socks off - it is SPECTACULAR!!!!! Rainbow, fab layout, CAS - it has it all!


And then a wonderful little treat from my German blogging friend Gundi from Papierelle - a little chocolate Advent calendar  - to shorten the waiting time until Christmas. How sweet! And so pretty with those little Purple onion stamps! Woot, woot - although I don't know if I can refrain from eating the whole thing at once, LOL!


So thank you all - blogland is one wonderful place and I am grateful to be a small part of it and have you as my friends!


Happy Stamping!

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
