So Suzy Themes and Techniques March

Hi Everyone,

today's card is for the So Suzy March Themes and Techniques feature.


The theme is Flowers and Spring
The technique is Stencilling

My stamp supplies:
27-00051 R SC:
Outline Ranunculus, Tulip, iStencil, Birthday sentiment

Lets get started:


I stamped the ranuncula stamps onto a scrap piece of  Strathmore Bristol paper and colored them with my watercolor pens - very quickly - a blob of yellow in the center and a ring of orange around it and then blended the colors.



Did similar coloring with the tulip stamp and fuzzy cut them.


Selected a bright green card stock and sponged green inks over the stencil.


Took the stencil off and arranged the flowers.


Used Press'n Seal to keep the arrangement intact


And glued them onto my card base. Added the heat embossed sentiment and an enamel dot.



Hope you liked this!

Der moderne Stencil im Hintergrund passt sehr gut zu diesen Blüten! Und die kräftige Farbkombination muntert einen gleich auf!

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
